超高压处理对牛肉主要理化品质的影响

探讨超高压处理(不同压力和保压时间)对牛肉主要理化品质的影响。牛半腱肌肉经200～600MPa压力分别处理10min和20min,分析胶原蛋白含量和溶解性等特性以及牛肉蒸煮损失和嫩度在超高压处理过程中的变化。结果表明：随着压力的升高,牛半腱肌肉的剪切力均呈下降趋势,保压时间为20min时剪切力下降更显著。当压力达600MPa,牛肉剪切力分别降至39.59N(保压10min)和31.36N(保压20min)。总胶原蛋白、可溶性胶原蛋白的含量和胶原蛋白的溶解性随着处理压力的升高而增加。胶原蛋白特性变化与肉品质之间存在显著相关性。     

高压腌制对鸡胸肉微观结构的影响

采用食盐质量浓度为40 g/L的腌制液,在不同压力条件下（0.1、50、100、150、200、300 MPa,保压时间20 min）腌制鸡胸肉,应用低场核磁共振、明场相差显微镜和透射电镜研究鸡胸肉在不同压力条件下微观结构的变化。结果表明：高压腌制处理对鸡胸肉的水分存在状态具有显著的影响（P＜0.05）,300 MPa时的T22向慢弛豫方向移动,150 MPa时的不易流动水占总水分的百分含量最高。150 MPa以下处理组的肌肉组织结构无显著差异,肌细胞形状规则,排列有序;200 MPa处理下鸡胸肉的肌纤维排列疏松,肌纤维之间肌束膜开始破裂;300 MPa处理下鸡胸肉的肌束膜发生大量断裂和崩解,鸡胸肉的肌原纤维结构也发生明显变化,Z线和I带被彻底破坏,在Z线和M线附近形成了重聚体,肌纤维丝发生消融。150 MPa处理组的鸡胸肉肌肉结构保持良好。     

超高压对低盐海藻鸡肉糜品质的影响

为探究超高压对低盐海藻鸡胸肉糜的影响,考察了不同压力（0.1～500 MPa/10 min）和保压时间 （0～25 min/300 MPa）时肉糜的色泽、盐溶蛋白溶解度、蒸煮损失率、持水性、冻融损失率、质构以及流变特 性的变化规律。结果表明：随着压力的升高,肉糜亮度（L*）和白度（W）先降低后增加,在200 MPa时最低, 红度（a*）逐渐上升;100～300 MPa超高压处理对盐溶蛋白溶解度无显著影响（P＞0.05）,压力大于300 MPa 时盐溶蛋白溶解度显著降低（P＜0.05）;蒸煮损失率和冻融损失率随压力的升高呈先降低后增加趋势,在压力 为300 MPa时达到最低值;与0.1 MPa处理组相比,100～500 MPa压力处理使肉糜持水性显著升高（P＜0.05）; 硬度和弹性随着压力的增加先升高后降低,在200～300 MPa时达最大值,200、300 MPa处理组间无显著差异 （P＞0.05）;与0.1 MPa处理组相比,超高压处理能够改善海藻鸡胸肉糜的储能模量（G’）和相位角正切值 （tan δ）。保压时间对低盐海藻鸡胸肉糜色泽、盐溶蛋白溶解度、蒸煮损失率无显著影响（P＞0.05）;随着保压 时间的延长,肉糜的持水性、G’、tan δ值和质构得到改善,但保压时间过长（25 min）可破坏肉糜的硬度和弹性。 本研究表明超高压处理能够改善低盐海藻鸡胸肉糜的品质,为新型肉制品的开发提供了理论依据。     

Effects of Ultraviolet Light and High‐Pressure Processing on Quality and Health‐Related Constituents of Fresh Juice Products

Fresh juices are highly popular beverages in the global food market. They are perceived as wholesome, nutritious, all‐day beverages. For a fast growing category of premium juice products such as cold‐pressed juices, minimal‐processing nonthermal techniques such as ultraviolet (UV) light and high‐pressure processing (HPP) are expected to be used to extend shelf‐life while retaining physicochemical, nutritional, and sensory characteristics with reduced microbial loads. Also, UV light and HPP are approved by regulatory agencies and recognized as one of the simplest and very environmentally friendly ways to destroy pathogenic organisms. One of the limitations to their more extensive commercial application lies in the lack of comparative effects on nutritional and quality‐related compounds in juice products. This review provides a comparative analysis using 92 studies (UV light: 42, HPP: 50) mostly published between 2004 and 2015 to evaluate the effects of reported UV light and HPP processing conditions on the residual content or activity of bioactive compounds such as vitamins, polyphenols, antioxidants, and oxidative enzymes in 45 different fresh fruit and vegetable juices (low‐acid, acid, and high‐acid categories). Also, the effects of UV light and HPP on color and sensory characteristics of juices are summarized and discussed.     

Woody Breast短期贮藏中肉质的变化

为研究近年来速生型肉鸡鸡胸肉硬度缺陷(woody/wooden breast,WB)俗称木质肉在短期贮藏中生肉肉质参数的变化。实验选取68只42日龄Cobb 500肉鸡作为研究对象,经宰杀后人工分级为低(normal,NORM)、高(severe,SEV)两组(n=34只/组)。在不同时间节点下(1、3、8 d)对所有样本测定质量、挤压力(compression force,CF)、滴水损失(drip loss,DL)、肌节长度(sarcomere length,SL)及肉破碎化指数(gravimetric fragmentation index,GFI)。对所有参数进行组间(不同WB等级间,不同时间节点)显著性分析,同时对各参数与WB等级间进行相关性分析。结果表明:SEV样本质量、CF、SL、GFI在贮藏时间节点处都显著高于NORM样本(P0.05),DL在1 d时NORM与SEV间无差异,在3~8 d时显著上升(P0.05)。CF、SL、GFI在1~3 d时,所有样本都显著减小(P0.05),3~8 d时CF无显著变化(P0.05),SL、GFI在NORM样本间无差异但在SEV样本间继续减小(P0.05)。相关性分析表明,CF、累积DL与WB等级极显著相关(P0.01),SL、GFI随时间变化与WB硬度减小存在联系。综上可知,SEV生肉肉质较NORM差,WB硬度随贮藏时间变长而减小,但其生肉品质并不会发生改变,因此对WB检测应在宰杀当天在线进行,且WB硬度由多种原因共同作用导致。     

超高压处理对泡椒凤爪微生物与品质的影响

将超高压技术（high pressure processing,HPP）应用于泡椒凤爪的加工过程,同时以传统热加工做对照,对处理前后以及贮藏期内微生物、理化指标和质构指标等进行研究。结果表明：热处理和超高压处理（400 MPa处理5 min）后泡椒凤爪菌落总数从21 000 CFU/g分别降到12 CFU/g和23 CFU/g,4 ℃和25 ℃贮藏15 d后,超高压处理样品的菌落总数分别增加到425 CFU/g和6 600 CFU/g,符合GB 2726-2005《熟肉制品卫生标准》要求。超高压处理组产品的硬度、脆度、弹性和感官评价指标显著高于热加工组。超高压处理组样品贮藏15 d后,亚硝酸盐含量低于GB 2726-2005的最高限定值。HPP技术适合应用在传统食品泡椒凤爪的生产过程中。     

Effects of Rigor Status during High‐Pressure Processing on the Physical Qualities of Farm‐Raised Abalone (Haliotis rufescens)

High‐pressure processing (HPP) is used to increase meat safety and shelf‐life, with conflicting quality effects depending on rigor status during HPP. In the seafood industry, HPP is used to shuck and pasteurize oysters, but its use on abalones has only been minimally evaluated and the effect of rigor status during HPP on abalone quality has not been reported. Farm‐raised abalones (Haliotis rufescens) were divided into 12 HPP treatments and 1 unprocessed control treatment. Treatments were processed pre‐rigor or post‐rigor at 2 pressures (100 and 300 MPa) and 3 processing times (1, 3, and 5 min). The control was analyzed post‐rigor. Uniform plugs were cut from adductor and foot meat for texture profile analysis, shear force, and color analysis. Subsamples were used for scanning electron microscopy of muscle ultrastructure. Texture profile analysis revealed that post‐rigor processed abalone was significantly (P < 0.05) less firm and chewy than pre‐rigor processed irrespective of muscle type, processing time, or pressure. L values increased with pressure to 68.9 at 300 MPa for pre‐rigor processed foot, 73.8 for post‐rigor processed foot, 90.9 for pre‐rigor processed adductor, and 89.0 for post‐rigor processed adductor. Scanning electron microscopy images showed fraying of collagen fibers in processed adductor, but did not show pressure‐induced compaction of the foot myofibrils. Post‐rigor processed abalone meat was more tender than pre‐rigor processed meat, and post‐rigor processed foot meat was lighter in color than pre‐rigor processed foot meat, suggesting that waiting for rigor to resolve prior to processing abalones may improve consumer perceptions of quality and market value.     

Effect of Hydrodynamic Pressure Processing on the Processing and Quality Characteristics of Moisture-Enhanced Pork Loins

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to determine the influence of hydrodynamic pressure processing (HDP) and aging on the processing characteristics and final meat quality of moisture-enhanced pork loins. Boneless pork loins (n = 24) were split into 3 portions and assigned treatments: control (non-HDP treated, brine-injected), HDP treated before brine-injection, or HDP treated after brine-injection. Pork loins were injected with a salt/phosphate/water solution to 110% of original weight on day 0, intermittently tumbled 3 h, and then held overnight. Meat quality and protein characteristics were measured on days 1 and 8. HDP-treated loins had greater (P < 0.05) brine retention after overnight equilibration and a higher (P < 0.05) processing yield than controls. Warner–Bratzler shear force and expressible moisture decreased (P < 0.0001) with aging from days 1 to 8, but were not significantly affected by either HDP treatment. When the drip loss data from HDP treatments were pooled, HDP samples had lower drip loss values than controls. L* and b* measurements exhibited significant HDP by aging interaction effects, but a* was not influenced by either HDP or aging. Myofibrillar protein solubility and gel electrophoresis measurements of protein degradation were influenced by aging treatments. Data from this study suggest that HDP may have beneficial effects on the processing and final product quality of moisture-enhanced pork loins. Practical Application: This study demonstrates that hydrodynamic pressure processing (HDP) is an effective postharvest technology for improving the processing and meat quality characteristics of moisture-enhanced pork loin products, benefiting both meat processors and consumers.     

High‐Pressure Inactivation of Enzymes: A Review on Its Recent Applications on Fruit Purees and Juices

In the last 2 decades high‐pressure processing (HPP) has established itself as one of the most suitable nonthermal technologies applied to fruit products for the extension of shelf‐life. Several oxidative and pectic enzymes are responsible for deterioration in color, flavor, and texture in fruit purees and juices (FP&J). The effect of HPP on the activities of polyphenoloxidase, peroxidase, β‐glucosidase, pectinmethylesterase, polygalacturonase, lipoxygenase, amylase, and hydroperoxide lyase specific to FP&J have been studied by several researchers. In most of the cases, partial inactivation of the target enzymes was possible under the experimental domain, although their pressure sensitivity largely depended on the origin and their microenvironmental condition. The variable sensitivity of different enzymes also reflects on their kinetics. Several empirical models have been established to describe the kinetics of an enzyme specific to a FP&J. The scientific literature in the last decade illustrating the effects of HPP on enzymes in FP&J, enzymatic action on those products, mechanism of enzyme inactivation during high pressure, their inactivation kinetics, and several intrinsic and extrinsic factors influencing the efficacy of HPP is critically reviewed in this article. In addition, process optimization of HPP targeting specific enzymes is of great interest from an industrial approach. This review will give a fair idea about the target enzymes specific to FP&J and the optimum conditions needed to achieve sufficient inactivation during HPP treatment.     

Inactivation of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and Quality Maintenance of Cherry Tomatoes Treated with Gaseous Essential Oils

The antimicrobial activity of the essential oils (EOs) from cinnamon bark, oregano, mustard, and of their major components cinnamaldehyde, carvacrol, and allyl isothiocyanate (AIT) was evaluated as a gaseous treatment to reduce Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in vitro and on tomatoes. In vitro tests showed that mustard EO and AIT had the greatest inhibition of Salmonella, followed by cinnamon EO and cinnamaldehyde, while oregano and carvacrol showed the least inhibition. Scanning electron microscopy images of S. Typhimurium on tomatoes suggest that the EOs and their major components damaged the bacteria, and the damage was more obvious after posttreatment storage at 10 °C for 4 and 7 d. Salmonella on inoculated tomatoes was reduced by more than 5 log colony forming units (CFU)/g by mustard EO and AIT, by 4.56 and 3.79 log CFU/g following cinnamon EO and cinnamaldehyde treatments, respectively, and 1.54 and 3.37 log CFU/g after oregano EO and carvacrol treatments, respectively. Mustard EO and AIT induced discoloration, softening, and loss of the vitamin C and lycopene during 21 d of storage at 10 °C, while treatment with cinnamon EO and cinnamaldehyde did not result in significant changes in tomato quality. Tomatoes treated with oregano EO had better quality than nontreated samples after storage. Therefore, treatment with cinnamon and oregano EO and their major components appeared to be feasible for inactivation of Salmonella on tomatoes and maintaining quality.     

不同冻结速率对鸡胸肉品质的影响

为研究冻结速率对鸡胸肉品质的影响,将24只三黄鸡屠宰并预冷8 h后取胸肉作为研究对象,样品分为3个处理组,分别置于-15、-25、-35℃下冻结,测定冻结速率、解冻汁液流失率、加压失液率、蒸煮损失率、色差、蛋白质溶解度、TBARS值、Ca2+-ATPase活力的变化。结果表明:冻结速率对鸡胸肉解冻汁液流失率、加压失液率、蒸煮损失率、色差、TBARS值、Ca2+-ATPase活力有显著影响(P<0.05),而对蛋白质溶解度无显著影响(P>0.05),且冻结速率越大,鸡胸肉品质越好。     

Inactivation of Salmonella in Shell Eggs by Hot Water Immersion and Its Effect on Quality

Thermal inactivation kinetics of heat resistant strains of Salmonella Enteritidis in shell eggs processed by hot water immersion were determined and the effects of the processing on egg quality were evaluated. Shell eggs were inoculated with a composite of heat resistant Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) strains PT8 C405, 2 (FSIS #OB030832), and 6 (FSIS #OB040159). Eggs were immersed in a circulating hot water bath for various times and temperatures. Come‐up time of the coldest location within the egg was 21 min. SE was reduced by 4.5 log at both hot water immersion treatments of 56.7 C for 60 min and 55.6 °C for 100 min. Decimal reduction times (D‐values) at 54.4, 55.6, and 56.7 °C were 51.8, 14.6, and 9.33 min, respectively. The z‐value was 3.07 °C. Following treatments that resulted in a 4.5 log reduction (56.7 °C/60 min and 55.6 °C/100 min), the surviving population of SE remained static during 4 wk of refrigerated storage. After processing under conditions resulting in 4.5 log reductions, the Haugh unit and albumen height significantly increased (P < 0.01) and yolk index significantly decreased (P < 0.05). The shell dynamic stiffness significantly increased (P < 0.05), while static compression shell strength showed no significant difference (P < 0.05). Vitelline membrane strength significantly increased (P < 0.05); although, no significant difference (P < 0.05) was observed in vitelline membrane elasticity. In summary, the hot water immersion process inactivated heat resistant SE in shell eggs by 4.5 log, but also significantly affected several egg quality characteristics.     

Effects of High‐Hydrostatic Pressure on Inactivation of Human Norovirus and Physical and Sensory Characteristics of Oysters

The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of high‐hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on inactivation of human norovirus (HuNoV) in oysters and to evaluate organoleptic characteristics of oysters treated at pressure levels required for HuNoV inactivation. Genogroup I.1 (GI.1) or Genogroup II.4 (GII.4) HuNoV was inoculated into oysters and treated at 300 to 600 MPa at 25 and 0 °C for 2 min. After HHP, viral particles were extracted by porcine gastric mucin‐conjugated magnetic beads (PGM‐MBs) and viral RNA was quantified by real‐time RT‐PCR. Lower initial temperature (0 °C) significantly enhanced HHP inactivation of HuNoV compared to ambient temperature (25 °C; P < 0.05). HHP at 350 and 500 MPa at 0 °C could achieve more than 4 log₁₀ reduction of GII.4 and GI.1 HuNoV in oysters, respectively. HHP treatments did not significantly change color or texture of oyster tissue. A 1‐ to 5‐scale hedonic sensory evaluation on appearance, aroma, color, and overall acceptability showed that pressure‐treated oysters received significantly higher quality scores than the untreated control (P < 0.05). Elevated pressure levels at 450 and 500 MPa did not significantly affect scores compared to 300 MPa at 0 °C, indicating increasing pressure level did not affect sensory acceptability of oysters. Oysters treated at 0 °C had slightly lower acceptability than the group treated at room temperature on day 1 (P < 0.05), but after 1 wk storage, no significant difference in sensory attributes and consumer desirability was observed (P > 0.05).

A Gompertz Model Approach to Microbial Inactivation Kinetics by High‐Pressure Processing (HPP): Model Selection and Experimental Validation

A recently proposed Gompertz model (GMPZ) approach describing microbial inactivation kinetics by high‐pressure processing (HPP) incorporated the initial microbial load (N₀) and lower microbial quantification limit (N_lim), and simplified the dynamic effects of come‐up time (CUT). The inactivation of Listeria innocua in milk by HPP treatments at 300, 400, 500, and 600 MPa and pressure holding times (t_hold) ≤10 min was determined experimentally to validate this model approach. Models based on exponential, logistic‐exponential, and inverse functions were evaluated to describe the effect of pressure on the lag time (λ) and maximum inactivation rate (μ_max), whereas the asymptote difference (A) was fixed as A = log₁₀(N₀/N_lim). Model performance was statistically evaluated and further validated with additional data obtained at 450 and 550 MPa. All GMPZ models adequately fitted L. innocua data according to the coefficient of determination (R² ≥ 0.95) but those including a logistic‐exponential function for μ_max(P) were superior (R² ≥ 0.97). These GMPZ versions predicted that approximately 597 MPa is the theoretical pressure level (P_λ) at which microbial inactivation begins during CUT, mathematically defined as λ (P = P_λ) = t_CUT, and matching the value observed on the microbial survival curve at 600 MPa. As pressure increased, predictions tended to slightly underestimate the HPP lethality in the tail section of the survival curve. This may be overseen in practice since the observed microbial counts were below the predicted log₁₀ N values. Overall, the modeling approach is promising, justifying further validation work for other microorganisms and food systems.     

Effects of High Pressure on Texture and Microstructure of Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) Fillets

High pressure is an innovative non‐thermal food‐preservation technology. We studied the effect of high‐pressure treatment up to 500 MPa for 5 min on physical characteristics of sea bass fillets after 0, 7, and 14 d of refrigerated storage. Color results exhibited an increase of lightness and a slight change of hue, which might be imperceptible in cooked fish. High‐pressure treatment induced a decrease of exudation and water‐holding capacity. Pressure treatment above 300 MPa provoked higher fish hardness after storage than in untreated sample, proving the ability of high pressure to improve textural quality of chilled, stored fish fillet. These assessments were corroborated with microstructure observations. We showed that high‐pressure treatment at 500 MPa allowed, after 7 d of storage, a total aerobic count equivalent to that of untreated fresh fish fillet to be obtained. Thus, high pressure might be considered to be a technology able to improve safety and textural quality of fresh fish fillets.     

Survival and High‐Hydrostatic Pressure Inactivation of Foodborne Pathogens in Salmorejo,a Traditional Ready‐to‐Eat Food

Salmorejo is a traditional tomato‐based creamy product. Because salmorejo is not heat‐processed, there is a risk of contamination with foodborne pathogens from raw materials. Even though bacterial growth in salmorejo is strongly inhibited because of its acidic pH (close to 3.9), the growth and survival of 3 foodborne pathogens in this food has not been studied before. In this study, 3 cocktails consisting of Escherichia coli O157, Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis, and Listeria monocytogenes strains were inoculated in freshly prepared salmorejo. The food was treated by high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) at 400, 500, or 600 MPa for 8 min, or left untreated, and stored at 4 °C for 30 d. Viable cell counts were determined on selective media and also by the triple‐layer agar method in order to detect sublethally injured cells. In control samples, L. monocytogenes viable cells decreased by 2.4 log cycles at day 7 and were undetectable by day 15. S. enterica cells decreased by 0.5 or 2.4 log cycles at days 7 and 15 respectively, but still were detectable at day 30. E. coli O157 cells survived much better in salmorejo, decreasing only by 1.5 log cycles at day 30. Treatments at pressures of 400 MPa or higher reduced viable counts of L. monocytogenes and S. enterica to undetectable levels. HHP treatments significantly (P < 0.05) reduced E. coli counts by approximately 5.2 to 5.4 log cycles, but also yielded surviving cells that apparently were sublethally injured. Only samples treated at 600 MPA for 8 min were devoid of detectable E. coli cells during storage.
