海鳗盐渍过程中的渗透脱水规律研究

研究了海鳗在盐渍过程中的渗透脱水规律。海鳗经盐渍发生了物理、化学和组织的变化。温度对鱼体盐渍的重量变化影响不是决定性的，食盐浓度是影响鱼体重量变化的关键因素；温度和浓度对于食盐渗透速度的影响是显著的，并且为正相关。电镜显示经过盐渍后的肌肉组织结构变硬和嚼密。在盐卤中氨基酸随着盐渍温度的提高溶出的数量增加。随着盐渍浓度的提高，盐卤中的氨基酸溶出的数量减少。而鱼体肌肉蛋白质的分解，盐渍浓度对其有较大影响。这些研究对于海鳗的腌制生产具有实际指导意义。     

Optimisation of osmotic dehydration of 'Tommy Atkins' mango fruit

Osmotic dehydration of mango in sucrose solution as influenced by temperature (30–50 °C), immersion time (60–150 min) and solution concentration (40–60% w/w) was studied through response surface methodology. Responses of water loss and solid gain were fitted to polynomials, with multiple correlation coefficients ranging from 0.72 to 0.95, respectively. The fitted functions were optimised for maximum water loss and minimised incorporation of solids in order to obtain a product resembling non-processed fruit. Optimum conditions to obtain water removal >25% with solid uptake lower than 6% could be obtained using a 44% (w/w) sucrose solution concentration, temperatures up to 38 °C and immersion times up to 80 min.     

Structural and Compositional Profiles in Osmotically Dehydrated Apple

Concentration profiles in apple tissue during osmotic dehydration were studied and compared with simultaneous structural changes. Experiments were conducted in apple slices (20 and 30 mm thick) at 20, 30, 40 and 50°C. After treatments, water and solutes were analyzed in serial slices 1.5 mm thick. The occurrence of an “Advancing Disturbance Front,” (ADF) was proposed to describe the mass transfer. The ADF is located at a distance d_f to the interface, where the reduced driving force (Y) was 0.99. At distances d>d_f (undisturbed zone) neither compositional nor structural changes were observed. Advancing constant rates for the ADF were determined, showing slight temperature dependence. A generalized equation Y=f(d/d_f) described and fitted all the experimental data.     

Optimisation of processing variables affecting the osmotic dehydration of pomegranate arils

For the optimisation of osmotic dehydration by response surface methodology, the experiments were conducted according to Central Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD) with three variables at five levels. The low and high levels of the variables were 40 and 50 °C for osmotic solution temperature, 45 and 55°Bx for sucrose solution concentration, 60 and 100 min for duration of dipping in osmotic solution, respectively. The fruit to solution ratio was kept 1:4 (w/w) during all the experiments. Before dipping the arils in sucrose solution, the freezing of the whole pomegranate at ?18 °C was carried out to increase the permeability of the outer cellular layer of the arils. The arils were further convectively dehydrated at 60 °C air temperature up to final moisture content of 10% (wb) to make it a shelf stable product. The optimum conditions for osmotic solution concentration, temperature and process duration were 55°Bx, 40 °C and 100 min, respectively.     

Determination of water effective diffusion coefficient of sardine sheets during vacuum pulse osmotic dehydration

The water effective diffusion coefficient of sardine sheets during vacuum pulse osmotic dehydration was determined. Sardine sheets (20.1×15.0×6.4 mm³) were osmotic dehydrated at brine concentrations between 0.15 and 0.27 g NaCl/g, and temperatures between 32 and 38 °C. The water effective diffusion coefficient ranged approximately from 1.46×10⁻¹⁰ m²/s to 2.41×10⁻¹⁰ m²/s. In general, diffusion coefficient increased with increasing concentration and temperature. Dependence on temperature followed an Arrhenius relationship, regardless of concentration Diffusion coefficient at 0.18 g NaCl/g was found to be the most temperature sensitive (E_a=39.62 kJ/mol) while that at 0.15 g NaCl/g was the least temperature sensitive (E_a=23.67 kJ/mol). The water effective diffusion coefficient was empirically correlated with concentration and temperature of osmotic solution. A high degree of correlation was observed between predicted and experimental values of the water effective diffusion coefficient (R²=0.856).     

Optimisation of the pulsed vacuum osmotic dehydration of cladodes of fodder palm

Fodder palm, a great source of nutrients for human and animals, grows even in arid climates. Pulsed vacuum osmotic dehydration is an efficient process for obtaining semidehydrated food. It was used to slice cladodes of fodder palm. The independent variables used were temperature (30–50 °C), pulsed vacuum pressure (50–150 mbar) and NaCl concentration (5–15 g per 100 g solution). The response variables were water activity (a_w), moisture content (X), colour parameters, water loss (WL), solid gain (SG) and weight reduction (WR). The pulsed vacuum osmotic dehydration process was optimised for minimum values of a_w, X and SG, and maximum values of chroma. The experimental data obtained with the optimum condition (100 mbar; 10 gNaCl per 100 g solution, 44 °C) were near the estimated ones. For example, WL, a_w and ?E, and their error were 8.15 g per 100 g, 11%; 0.985, 0.3% and 6.15, 15.2%, respectively.

研究了真空渗透脱水、脉冲真空渗透脱水和常压渗透脱水下蓝莓水分含量和水分活度的变化规律，结果表明：真空渗透脱水时，蓝莓的水分含量和水分活度降低得最快。真空渗透脱水、脉冲真空渗透脱水、常压下渗透脱水蓝莓的有效水分扩散率分别为1.6777×10^-9、1.3629×10^-9、0.5679×10^-9m^2/s。真空渗透脱水、脉冲真空渗透脱水、常压下渗透脱水的有效固性物扩散率分别为9.1705×10^-10、6.3919×10^-10、5.1007×10^-10m^2/s。     

Effect of ripening stage and infusion with calcium lactate and sucrose on the quality and microstructure of frozen mango

The effect of the ripening stage and infusion with calcium lactate and sucrose on the quality and microstructure of frozen mango was investigated. Partially ripe and ripe mangoes cubes were infused in 1% calcium lactate solution or a combination of 1% calcium lactate and 50% sucrose solution for 1 h before freezing at ?20 °C and stored for 14 days. After thawing, both the partially ripe and ripe mangoes treated with the combination of calcium lactate and sucrose exhibited the highest firmness value, sensory firmness score and lowest drip loss. Light microscope images also illustrated less damage to the cell wall of mango pretreated with calcium and sucrose. The calcium‐reinforced structure of the fruit and osmotic dehydration with sucrose reduced the freezable water content and consequently limited ice crystal damage. Furthermore, partially ripe mango was more suitable for freezing than ripe mango due to its stronger cell wall structure.
