BACKGROUND: The aroma of boiled potatoes is greatly appreciated by consumers. Although it is formed by 150 volatile compounds, only a few seem to actually contribute to the characteristic aroma. In addition, potatoes have to be stored at a low temperature after harvest to guarantee a year‐round supply. However, even at low temperatures, tuber volatile composition is modified during storage. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of storage temperature on boiled potato volatile constituents, mainly focused on lipid‐derived components, by considering different varieties stored at 4 °C and 8 °C. RESULTS: It was found that fewer lipid‐derived components were obtained when the potato tubers were stored at 4 °C rather than 8 °C. Specifically, the amounts of 2,4‐decadienal isomers and hexanal increased with the storage time, particularly at 8 °C. Similarly, pentanal and nonanal, which are autoxidation products, occurred to a greater extent at higher temperatures. In contrast, the levels of sugar‐derived compounds, in general, increased during storage at 4 °C rather than 8 °C as a result of higher content of sugars at low temperature. CONCLUSION: The effect of storage temperature on lipid‐derived volatile components in boiled potato appears to depend on the variety studied. Generally speaking, lower temperatures during storage promote sugar content and, as a consequence, sugar‐derived products. At the same time, lower temperatures result in less lipid oxidation and, therefore, a fewer lipid‐derived compounds. Copyright © 2009 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

BACKGROUND: In an effort to develop alternative therapeutic agents, strong inhibitory activity against α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase was detected in Eisenia bicyclis methanolic extract. RESULTS: In this study, two phlorotannins were isolated from E. bicyclis and characterised by chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance. The active substances were identified as fucofuroeckol A (FF) and dioxinodehydroeckol (DD). To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of the identification of these substances in E. bicyclis. However, to date, no antidiabetic activity of FF and DD has been reported. Both phlorotannins demonstrated significant inhibitory activity against α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase. FF showed potent antidiabetic activity, with IC50 values of 131.34 nmol L?1 against α‐glucosidase and 42.91 µmol L?1 against α‐amylase. The corresponding IC50 values of DD were 93.33 nmol L?1 and 472.7 µmol L?1. Furthermore, kinetic analysis revealed that FF and DD exhibited non‐competitive inhibitory activity against α‐glucosidase. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that FF and DD may be candidates for the development of an antidiabetic pharmaceutical agent or food additive. Copyright © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Individual tubers from mature plants of cultivars Pentland Dell and Estima were harvested from experimental plots in two successive years and analysed for α‐solanine, α‐chaconine and total glycoalkaloid concentration (α‐solanine and α‐chaconine combined) using high‐performance liquid chromatography. Mean tuber glycoalkaloid concentration per plant was strongly affected by genotype and was much higher in plants of Pentland Dell (10.0 and 16.3 mg per 100 g fresh weight in 1994 and 1995, respectively) than Estima (4.0 and 4.3 mg per 100 g fresh weight in 1994 and 1995, respectively). The variation between plants in mean tuber glycoalkaloid concentration, expressed as coefficient of variation, was similar for the two cultivars in both years. Variation within plants was higher for cultivar Pentland Dell than Estima for both years but it was statistically significant only in 1995. Tuber position within a plant had no effect on glycoalkaloid concentrations in tubers of similar size. An inverse relationship between total glycoalkaloid concentration and tuber fresh weight of individual tubers was found for both cultivars and small tubers of Pentland Dell (20–40 g fresh weight) exceeded the safety limit of 20 mg per 100 g fresh weight. The pattern of glycoalkaloid accumulation differed between genotypes and appeared related to tuber growth. The implications of these results in terms of food safety are discussed. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Lipomyces kononenkoae secretes a battery of highly effective amylases (i.e. alpha-amylase, glucoamylase, isoamylase and cyclomaltodextrin glucanotransferase activities) and is therefore considered as one of the most efficient raw starch-degrading yeasts known. Previously, we have cloned and characterized genomic and cDNA copies of the LKA1 alpha-amylase gene from L. kononenkoae IGC4052B (CBS5608T) and expressed them in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Here we report on the cloning and characterization of the genomic and cDNA copies of a second alpha-amylase gene (LKA2) from the same strain of L. kononenkoae. LKA2 was cloned initially as a 1663 bp cDNA harbouring an open reading frame (ORF) of 1496 nucleotides. Sequence analysis of LKA2 revealed that this ORF encodes a protein (Lka2p) of 499 amino acids, with a predicted molecular weight of 55,307 Da. The LKA2-encoded alpha-amylase showed significant homology to several bacterial cyclomaltodextrin glucanotransferases and also to the alpha-amylases of Aspergillus nidulans, Debaryomyces occidentalis, Saccharomycopsis fibuligera and Sz. pombe. When LKA2 was expressed under the control of the phosphoglycerate kinase gene promoter (PGK1(p)) in S. cerevisiae, it was found that the genomic copy contained a 55 bp intron that impaired the production of biologically active Lka2p in the heterologous host. In contrast to the genomic copy, the expression of the cDNA construct of PGK1p-LKA2 in S. cerevisiae resulted in the production of biologically active alpha-amylase. The LKA2-encoded alpha-amylase produced by S. cerevisiae exhibited a high specificity towards substrates containing alpha-1,4 glucosidic linkages. The optimum pH of Lka2p was found to be 3.5 and the optimum temperature was 60 degrees C. Besides LKA1, LKA2 is only the second L. kononenkoae gene ever cloned and expressed in S. cerevisiae. The cloning, characterization and co-expression of these two genes encoding these highly efficient alpha-amylases form an important part of an extensive research programme aimed at the development of amylolytic strains of S. cerevisiae for the efficient bioconversion of starch into commercially important commodities. 相似文献

During the heat processing of raw ginseng to produce red ginseng, amino acid derivatives such as arginyl-fructose (AF) and arginyl-fructosyl-glucose (AFG) are formed at high levels, through amadori rearrangement, the early step of Maillard reaction, from arginine and glucose or maltose, respectively. However, very limited information is available about the effect of the structural difference between AF and AFG on various biological activities. This is the first report of the mode of action and effect of AF and AFG on the type 2 diabetes management related inhibition of postprandial hyperglycemia in vitro and in animal model. In our previous study, standards AF and AFG were chemically synthesized and in this study their inhibitory activities against rat intestinal α-glucosidases and porcine pancreatic α-amylase were investigated in vitro. The IC(50) value of the in vitro inhibitory activity of AF and AFG on rat intestinal sucrase was high and in similar levels (6.40 and 6.20 mM, respectively). Additionally, a mild pancreatic α-amylase inhibitory activity was observed, with IC(50) values 36.30 and 37.60 mM for AF and AFG, respectively. The effect of AF and AFG on the postprandial blood glucose increase after meal was investigated in Sprague Dawley rats fed on starch or sucrose meals. Both amadori compounds significantly reduced the postprandial blood glucose levels after starch or sucrose loading. These results indicate that AF and AFG, Maillard reaction products, may have antidiabetic effect by suppressing carbohydrate absorption in the gastrointestinal level, and thereby reducing the postprandial increase of blood glucose. 相似文献

Glycoalkaloids (α-solanine and α-chaconine) are naturally occurring toxic compounds in potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum L.) that cause acute intoxication in humans after their consumption. Present research was conducted to evaluate α-chaconine, α-solanine, and total glycoalkaloids (TGAs) contents in the peel and flesh portions by high-performance liquid chromatography method in selected Pakistani potato cultivars. The α-solanine content varies 45.98 ± 1.63 to 2742.60 ± 92.97 mg/100 g of dry weight (DW) in peel and from 4.01 ± 0.14 to 2466.56 ± 87.21 mg/100 g of DW in flesh. Similarly, α-chaconine content varied from 4.42 ± 0.16 to 6818.40 ± 211.07 mg/100 g of DW in potato peel and from 3.94 ± 0.14 to 475.33 ± 16.81 mg/100 g DW in flesh portion. The TGA concentration varied from 177.20 ± 6.26 to 5449.90 ± 192.68 mg/100 g of DW in peel and from 3.08 ± 0.11 to 14.69 ± 0.52 mg/100 g of DW in flesh portion of all the potato cultivars tested. All the potato cultivars contained lower concentration of TGA than the limits recommended as safe, except 2 cultivars, that is FD8-3 (2539.18 ± 89.77 mg/100 g of DW) and Cardinal (506.16 ± 17.90 mg/kg). The dietary intake assessment of potato cultivars revealed that Cardinal, FD 35-36, FD 8-3, and FD 3-9 contained higher amount of TGA in whole potato, although FD 8-3 only possessed higher content of TGA (154.93 ± 7.75) in its flesh portion rendering it unfit for human consumption. Practical Application: This paper was based on the research conducted on toxic compounds present in all possible potato cultivars in Pakistan. Actually, we quantify the toxic compounds (glycoalkaloids) of potato cultivars through HPLC and their dietary assessment. This paper revealed safety assessment and their application in food industries especially potato processing. 相似文献

The gene putatively encoding alpha-aminoadipate reductase (AAR) was isolated successfully by degenerate PCR and chromosome walking, based on cassette PCR methods, from the dimorphous yeast Saccharomycopsis fibuligera PD70 and was named SfLYS2. Sequence analysis revealed that it contained a putative open reading frame (ORF) of 4161 bp and encoded a polypeptide of 1386 amino acids. The deduced translation product shared an identity of 53% and 51% to the Lys2p homologues of Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, respectively. An atypical TATA box and a GCN4-box element were found in the 5'-upstream region. Genomic Southern hybridization suggested the presence of a single locus of SfLYS2 in the S. fibuligera genome. Expression of the ORF of SfLYS2 in a lys2(-) strain of S. cerevisiae could functionally complement the lysine mutant of the S. cerevisiae strain. S. fibuligera could use lysine as the sole nitrogen source but its growth was inhibited on the alpha-aminoadipate (AA) medium. Approximately 90% of the mutants of S. cerevisiae resistant to AA are lysine auxotrophs; in contrast all the mutants of S. fibuligera resistant to AA recovered in this work were not lysine auxotrophs. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: During potato storage the tubers tend to develop off‐flavours, mainly due to lipid‐derived aldehydes, whose formation is increased after boiling or processing. This may become a problem when boiled or precooked potatoes are used. Methyl jasmonate (MJ) is a phytohormone capable of modifying plant and food composition. The aim of this work was to control the formation of off‐flavours in different cultivars of raw potato during storage by MJ treatment. RESULTS: The use of Carbowax 20M as support in MJ emulsion resulted in significantly (P < 0.05) lower levels of lipid‐derived compounds than the use of lanolin. Levels of the lipid‐derived aldehydes propanal, hep‐2‐enal, nonanal, oct‐2‐enal and hexanal, although dependent on variety, generally decreased significantly (P < 0.05) after treatment with MJ/Carbowax 20M emulsion. Sugar‐derived compounds such as pyridine and furfural, however, were not affected by this treatment. CONCLUSION: Treatment with MJ/Carbowax 20M can be used to diminish the formation of off‐flavours in boiled potato. However, this treatment is not useful to avoid the sweetening caused by sugar‐derived products. Additional advantages of exogenous MJ are a delay in the appearance of sprouting and aging and hence prolongation of the storage life of potato tubers.

ABSTRACT: Potato tubers are a staple food item in the North American diet. Each potato cultivar has unique tuber appearance and nutritional composition. A method was developed to facilitate better cultivar selection for dietary purposes and obtain a better understanding of the nutrient distribution within specific tissues of potato tubers. This involved a procedure for estimating the percent weight contribution of the 3 major tissue components, including periderm or \"skin,\" cortex, and pith for 20 potato cultivars. Weight determination was based on the volume (calculated through an ellipsoid formula) and density of each component tissue. Calculated percent weight and dry matter data for each tuber tissue provided conversion factor values that were tabulated for all cultivars. An example is provided to illustrate the application of this procedure in facilitating identification of cultivars with significantly greater or lesser protein content. 相似文献

Koji are solid-state fermentation products made by inoculating steamed grains with the spores of fungi, particularly Aspergillus spp. This research was undertaken to identify the fermentation and storage conditions optimal for the production and maintenance of selected hydrolytic enzymes, such as α-amlyase and protease, in koji. Steamed rice and barley were inoculated with 2 × 10 (11) Aspergillus oryzae spores per kilogram of grains and fermented for 118 h in a growth chamber at 28 to 32 °C with controlled relative humidities. Samples were drawn periodically during fermentation and storage at -20, 4, or 32 °C, and α-amylase and protease activity, mold counts, a(w), moisture contents, and pH of collected samples were determined. It was observed that the a(w), moisture contents, and pH of the koji were influenced by the duration of fermentation and temperature of storage. The α-amylase activity of both koji increased as the populations of A. oryzae increased during the exponential growth phase. The enzyme activity of barley koji was significantly higher than that of rice koji, reaching a peak activity of 211.87 or 116.57 U at 46 and 58 h, respectively, into the fermentation process. The enzyme activity in both products started to decrease once the mold culture entered the stationary growth phase. The protease activities of both koji were low and remained relatively stable during fermentation and storage. These results suggest that rice and barley koji can be used as sources of α-amylase and desired enzyme activity can be achieved by controlling the fermentation and storage conditions. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Amylases and proteases are 2 important hydrolytic enzymes. In the food industry, these enzymes are used to break down starches and proteins while reducing the viscosity of foods. Although amylases and proteases are found in plants and animals, commercial enzymes are often produced using bacteria or molds through solid state fermentation, which is designed to use natural microbial process to produce enzymes in a controlled environment. A properly produced and maintained koji with a high hydrolytic enzyme activity can serve as an important source of the enzymes for the food industry. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Mushroom poisoning is the main cause of human death by food poisoning in China. Most lethal mushrooms belong to the Amanita genus, whose amatoxins are responsible for the death of humans. Amanita exitialis is a lethal white mushroom commonly found in Guangdong Province, China. In this study the contents and distribution of the major amatoxins in different tissues and development stages of A. exitialis were systematically analysed. RESULTS: The amatoxin contents and distribution in six different mushroom tissues of A. exitialis were analysed by reverse phase high‐performance liquid chromatography. The highest concentrations of amatoxins were found in the gills and pileus, followed by the stipe and annulus, with the lowest concentrations in the volva and spores. Further analysis of mushrooms in different development stages showed that the amatoxin content was relatively high and steady during early development, reached its peak when the fruit body was in the vigorous growth stage and then decreased sharply when the mushroom entered its mature stage. Furthermore, the α‐amanitin/β‐amanitin ratio varied significantly in different tissues but remained constant within a specific tissue throughout development. CONCLUSION: The contents and distribution of amatoxins in different tissues and development stages of A. exitialis are markedly different. The distribution of α‐amanitin and β‐amanitin varies in different tissues but remains constant throughout development. Copyright © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Six varieties of Solanum tuberosum L potato grown in the Bolivian highlands under drought stress, with and without irrigation, were analysed for their content of glycoalkaloids (GAs). The plant material consisted of three drought‐tolerant varieties from a local breeding programme (PROINPA), Potosina, Chapaquita and Pampeña, and three control cultivated varieties, Malcacho, Sani Imilla and Desiree, either susceptible or relatively tolerant to drought. α‐Solanine and α‐chaconine were quantified in both the peel and flesh of the tubers. A significant increase in GA concentration (α‐solanine + α‐chaconine) was observed under drought stress conditions in most varieties; average concentration increases of 43 and 50% were registered in the improved and control cultivars respectively. In all tested cultivars, however, the GA concentration remained lower than the recommended food safety level (200 mg kg−1 fresh tubers). It ranged from 52.4 to 100 mg kg−1 fresh tubers in the improved cultivars and from 55.6 to 122.3 mg kg−1 fresh tubers in the controls. In the improved and control varieties the α‐solanine content averaged 42.6 and 35.4% of the total potato GAs respectively and was not significantly affected by drought stress, except in Desiree. In all conditions the peel contained the greatest proportion of total GAs. The hybrid variety Pampeña (new drought‐tolerant variety) contained the lowest amounts of GAs, which were lower than those of the control varieties, with and without irrigation. © 2000 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Treatment of potato plants with gibberellic acid (GA3) enhanced both shoot and stolon growth and dry weight but delayed tuber initiation and decreased tuber yield. Conversely, treatment with chlorocholine chloride (CCC) growth retardant reduced shoot and stolon growth and dry weight but promoted tuberisation. Chlorophyll a and b contents were both increased appreciably with CCC. In the tubers, CCC increased starch content by 11% compared to untreated control, whereas GA3 decreased starch content by about 13%. A very high reducing sugar content in the stem of GA3-treated crop indicated active hydrolysis of sucrose coming from the leaves, leading to its reduced supply to the tubers because of further possible sucrose hydrolysis while passing through the long stolons. However, in the CCC treated crop, the higher chlorophyll content of the leaves with reduced stolon length will promote efficient sucrose supply to the tubers. © 1998 Society of Chemical Industry. 相似文献

Sulphuric acid dehusked barley had a higher germinative energy and lower microbial infection than normal huskless (naked) barley, suggesting that the pericarp layer harboured microbial infection which may have limited the germination rate. Dehusking the normal huskless barley using sulphuric acid resulted in lower microbial infection, and increased germinative energy. The normal huskless barley sample had a higher β‐glucan content than the acid‐dehusked barley and had slower β‐glucan breakdown during malting. This resulted in the release of seven times more β‐glucan during mashing, and the production of wort of higher viscosity. The normal huskless barley sample had a higher total nitrogen content than the acid‐dehusked barley but both samples produced similar levels of amylolytic (α‐ and β‐amylase) activity over the same malting period. No direct correlation was found between barley total nitrogen level and the amylolytic activity of the malt. When barley loses its husk at harvest, the embryo is exposed and may be damaged. This may result in uneven germination which can reduce malting performance and hence malt quality. 相似文献
