Zein-based anti-browning cling wraps for fresh-cut apple slices

The usage of cling wraps is emerging as an easy and cost-effective approach to protect fresh-cut fruits and vegetables from dust, whilst improving visual appeal on retail counters. This study focused on developing an alternate, protein-based packaging material as a food grade cling wrap for food packaging applications. Zein-based cling wraps were produced, and their physical and mechanical characteristics were evaluated and compared with conventionally used chitosan biopolymer films and commercial synthetic polymer films. Antioxidant potential of the prepared films was studied, and the effectiveness of the developed films as anti-browning cling wraps was evaluated using studies conducted on fresh-cut apple slices at ambient conditions. Anti-browning effects were in par with polymeric counterparts; however, zein cling wraps could better prevent weight loss in apple slices. Zein-based films can be adopted as biodegradable food grade cling wraps as an alternative to chitosan and synthetic polymeric materials.     

Survey of mycotoxins in dates and dried fruits from Tunisian and Spanish markets

In an effort to enforce the knowledge on mycotoxin occurrence and co-occurrence in dates and dried fruits, 228 samples purchased from Tunisian and Spanish markets were subjected to multi-mycotoxin liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis of 16 mycotoxins. At least one mycotoxin was detected in 160 samples (70%). The frequency of contaminated samples was 83%, 80%, 64%, 59% and 26% for dates, dried vine fruits, figs, apricots and plums, respectively but none of the analyzed samples contained detectable levels of fumonisins (FB₁, FB₂, FB₃) or T-2 toxin (T2).The incidence and levels of mycotoxins varied in samples. The most prevalent mycotoxin was enniatin B (EnnB) (54%), followed by enniatinA₁ (EnnA₁) (36%); aflatoxins (AFs) (23%) and ochratoxin A (OTA) (22%). Thirteen samples contained AFs in levels that exceed the maximum limits established in EU legislation. The simultaneous contamination with 2–6 mycotoxins was observed in 51% of the analyzed samples. Lastly, intakes of the detected mycotoxins were calculated for average adult consumers and compared with the tolerable daily intakes (TDI). Data obtained were used to estimate the potential exposure levels.     

果蔬燕麦食品营养与开发利用进展

燕麦片是一种营养丰富、方便快捷、易于携带的食品。燕麦食品能基本满足人体所需能量,但维生素和矿物质等成分相对不足,不能满足机体一餐的全部营养需求。果蔬是人体获取维生素、矿物质和膳食纤维的主要来源,与人体健康密切相关,早餐合理摄取一定量的果蔬是身体健康的重要保证。果蔬燕麦食品的开发,能更好地满足人体对营养的需要,为人们提供了更好的早餐选择。本文综述了燕麦的营养保健功能、果蔬燕麦片的开发优势,并对其未来发展趋势进行了阐述,以供果蔬燕麦食品的研究和开发提供参考。     

Exploring relationships between satiation,perceived satiety and plant-based snack food features

We aimed to identify relations between satiation and subsequent satiety for six plant-based foods (apple, avocado, banana, carrot, chick pea and macadamia) using a panel of ten healthy participants and a complete crossover randomised design. Food was served as a mid-morning snack ad libitum over 20 min until participants were comfortably full, and subsequent satiety was monitored for up to 180 min. Carrot and macadamia had significantly higher perceived fullness during eating, but also significantly lower perceived satiety per gram than other foods. Food energy factors had no strong relationship with perceived fullness, but were significantly positively correlated with satiety. Mastication number had significant effects on both perceived fullness (negative) and satiety (positive). This pilot study showed that plant food factors affecting perceived fullness during eating and subsequent satiety are different, and suggests how portion control through satiation for different plant-based snacks may influence both energy intake and subsequent satiety.     

果蔬中常见有机磷和有机氯农药残留量分析

随着社会的发展和科技的进步,人们越来越关注自身的生活质量和食品健康。近几年农作物农药的过度使用问题引起了各界的关注,虽然有些剧毒农药被相关部门禁止使用,但是人们食用的果蔬中的农药残留量的多少成为了关注的焦点。本文使用电子俘获检测器和火焰光度检测器对几种常见的但是已经被禁用的几种农药进行有机氯和有机磷的气相色谱分析,以求得到抽测果蔬中相关的农药残留信息,以检测这几种被禁止使用的农药是否有违规使用的现象。     

Feeding the global city: urban transformation and urban food supply chain in 21st-century Istanbul

ABSTRACT

This article focuses on the effects of urban transformation on the urban food supply chain in 21st century Istanbul. The article begins with a discussion on the particularities of the urban transformation that has shaped the city since the 1980s, emphasizing tendencies that are relevant to food consumption and supply patterns and practices. Next, 6 categories of fresh fruits and vegetables (FFVs), provisioning agents (mixed/foreign-capital supermarkets, domestic-capital supermarkets, bazaars, local suppliers, and urban and semi-urban/peripheral farmers, internet or store-based alternative food networks) are analyzed in terms of their perception of urban transformation and various challenges it poses. The article concludes with an assessment of the changes in the city’s food supply chain in light of provisioning agents’ responses to the urban transformation as a force that either enables them compete more successfully and expand their operations or pushes them to contract or even leave the provisioning sector completely.     

不同贮藏温度对草莓呼吸强度及品质的影响

本文研究了不同贮藏温度(0℃、5℃、10℃、15℃、20℃、25℃、30℃)对草莓呼吸强度、感官评价、失重率、硬度、相对电导率、糖酸比、维生素C和色差的影响。研究表明:贮藏温度越高,草莓呼吸越旺盛,货架寿命越短,草莓30℃条件下的呼吸强度是0℃条件下的13.97倍;草莓在0℃、5℃、10℃、15℃、20℃、25℃、30℃条件下贮藏的商品寿命分别为9 d、7 d、6 d、5 d、3d、2 d、8 h。随着贮藏温度的升高,草莓的失重率、相对电导率和呼吸强度迅速升高,而草莓的感官评价、硬度、糖酸比、维生素C含量、L*、hue值逐渐降低;贮藏在0℃的草莓品质保持最好,贮藏9 d后的感官评价、失重率、硬度、相对电导率、糖酸比、Vc含量、L*和hue值分别为5.4、3.18%、11.13 N、39.05%、12.48、22.01 mg/100 g、37.84、32.81。     

Comparison of food values for consumers’ preferences on imported fruits and vegetables within Japan,Taiwan, and Indonesia

International agricultural trade in fruits and vegetables has received much attention as an effective method to create a sustainable agriculture industry for a country. This study focuses on consumers’ perceptions of food values toward imported fruits and vegetables in Japan, Taiwan, and Indonesia by using the Best-Worst Scaling method. Seven food values were examined in this study: labeling product origin, food safety certification, high quality appearance, domestic rarity, price, how the product was grown, and freshness. An online survey was conducted and 1,350 total valid respondents were collected (500 Japanese, 333 Taiwanese, and 517 Indonesian). The Latent Class Multinomial Logit model was used to analyze consumers for each country. Results revealed that food safety certification and freshness were found as the most important and second most important food values for the majority group of consumers in each of these three countries, respectively. However, the remainder of food values do not have the same importance for each country. The study should help governments and international marketers enhance their agricultural trade policies and marketing strategies for these targeted markets.
