暂养净化及无水保活中太平洋牡蛎活力品质与呈味物质分析

为探明太平洋牡蛎(Crassostrea gigas)采捕后不同流通阶段活力品质与呈味物质的变化规律，模拟产业流通实际，将活体太平洋牡蛎进行暂养净化、诱导休眠和无水保活，并在不同时间段取样，以腺苷三磷酸(adenosine triphosphate,ATP)关联物、核苷酸能荷值(adenylate energy charge,AEC)及游离氨基酸变化分析牡蛎活力品质的变化；以呈味化合物含量结合呈味强度值评价流通过程中牡蛎风味品质变化。结果显示，采捕后运输及环境胁迫对其活力、呈味物质有显著影响，通过24 h暂养净化，牡蛎活力品质均呈明显恢复，其中ATP、AEC、游离氨基酸总量较净化前明显上升(P<0.05)，机体活力达到新水平；诱导休眠至保活流通阶段，牡蛎受到低温、缺氧胁迫需调动更多能量物质以维持机体平衡，各项活力品质指标较净化前明显降低(P<0.05)，处于稳定的较低水平。呈味化合物中，牡蛎在暂养净化后鲜甜味氨基酸增加，苦味氨基酸下降，随着保活时间的延长，呈味氨基酸缓慢下降；鲜甜味核苷酸肌苷5’-单磷酸(inosine 5’-monophosphate,IMP)、单磷酸腺苷...

Changes in Viability and Taste Compounds of Crassostrea gigas during Depuration and Waterless Live Storage

To explore the changes in the viability and taste compounds of Crassostrea gigas at different circulation stages after harvesting, the oysters were sampled at different times of depuration, induced dormancy and waterless live storage for evaluation of viability changes in terms of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) related compounds, adenylate energy charge (AEC) and free amino acids and evaluation of flavor quality changes with respect to contents and taste activity values (TAV) of taste compounds. The results showed that the viability and taste compounds of C. gigas were significantly influenced by postharvest transportation and environmental stress. All viability indicators were significantly restored by 24 h depuration, with ATP, AEC and the content of total free amino acids being significantly higher than before depuration (P < 0.05), indicating that the viability reached new levels. During the process from induced dormancy to waterless live storage, more energy substances were required to maintain the balance of the organism under low temperature and hypoxia stress, so all viability indicators were significantly lower than before depuration (P < 0.05) and remained stable at a lower level. Among the taste compounds, the content of umami amino acids increased and the content of bitter amino acids decreased in C. gigas after depuration, and the content of taste amino acids decreased slowly as the waterless live storage time increased. The umami?nucleotides inosine 5’-monphosphate (IMP) and adenosine 5’-monophosphate (AMP) were accumulated throughout the circulation process (P < 0.05); the total amount of organic acids showed a fluctuant downward trend, with the amount of lactic acid being significantly higher after than before depuration (P < 0.05) and showing a decreasing trend from dormancy to the end of waterless live storage (P < 0.05), while the amounts of succinic acid and malic acid showed an increasing trend during waterless live storage (P < 0.05). The levels of Na+ and K+, which play an auxiliary role in the umami taste of C. gigas, were higher after 9 days of waterless live storage than before depuration. The total amount of taste substances did not change overall. The TAV of taste compounds showed that Asp, Glu, Arg, Ala, IMP, lactic acid, succinic acid, Na+ and K+ contributed significantly to the taste of C. gigas. In conclusion, the viability and taste substances of C. gigas can be maintained at a high level by depuration for 24 hours + gradient cooling to induce dormancy + ecological ice temperature waterless live storage for 9 days after harvesting.
