Sarmiento-García A, Rubio B, Martinez B, García JJ, Vieira C. Effect of dietary fat on proximal composition, sensorial analysis and shelf life of a traditional Spanish cooked pork product "Lomo de Sajonia" from Iberian pork. Anim Sci J 2024; 95:e13934. [PMID: 38581380 DOI: 10.1111/asj.13934] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Revised: 01/18/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the effect of different dietary fat sources on the quality of a Spanish-cooked meat product Lomo de Sajonia (LSA) and its shelf-life. Forty loins were selected from Iberian pigs fed four dietary treatments containing pork fat (G-1), Greedy-Grass Olive® (GGO) (enriched oleic-acid oil) (G-2), G-2 and high oleic sunflower (G-3), and G-3 plus a mixture of commercial organic acids (Bioll®) (G-4). Loins were manufactured to obtain LSA, and the quality and sensorial attributes were assessed. The shelf life was established according to microbial count and sensorial analysis, which was packed in a modified atmosphere and stored under retail conditions. All meat quality parameters of LSA remained stable in all groups, except fat content and overall liking, which showed the highest values for G-2 LSA. Regarding the shelf life, sensorial attributes remained acceptable in all groups during storage time, while a delay in microbial growth was recorded for the LSA of G-3. According to the results, including GGO in Iberian pig diets could enhance LSA traits, possibly linked to increased assimilation compared with conventional fat sources. However, adding organic acids to the diet did not have the expected effect on improving the shelf life of the LSA.

Characterization of Moringa oleifera Seed Oil for the Development of a Biopackage Applied to Maintain the Quality of Turkey Ham. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 16:132. [PMID: 38201797 PMCID: PMC10780569 DOI: 10.3390/polym16010132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Moringa oleifera has a high level of active chemicals that are useful in the food industry, and they have antibacterial and food preservation properties. The characterization of M. oleifera seed oil (MOS) may vary due to agronomic and environmental factors. Therefore, it was necessary to know the composition of lipids present in our oil extracted under pressing at 180 °C and thus determine if it is suitable to produce a biopackaging. Within the characterization of the oil, it was obtained that MOS presented high-quality fatty acids (71% oleic acid) with low values of acidity (0.71 mg KOH/g) and peroxide (1.74 meq O2/kg). Furthermore, MOS was not very sensitive to lipoperoxidation by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBuOOH) and its phenolic components, oleic acid and tocopherols, allowed MOS to present a recovery of 70% after 30 min of treatment. Subsequently, a biopackaging was developed using a multiple emulsion containing corn starch/carboxymethylcellulose/glycerol/MOS, which presented good mechanical properties (strength and flexibility), transparency, and a barrier that prevents the transfer of UV light by 30% and UV-C by 98%, as well as a flux with the atmosphere of 5.12 × 10-8 g/ m.s. Pa that prevents moisture loss and protects the turkey ham from O2. Hence, the turkey ham suffered less weight loss and less hardness due to its preservation in the biopackaging.

Selection of lactic acid bacteria as biopreservation agents and optimization of their mode of application for the control of Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat cooked meat products. Int J Food Microbiol 2023; 403:110341. [PMID: 37543003 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2023.110341] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2023] [Revised: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/07/2023]
Abstract
In order to meet consumers´ demands for more natural foods and to find new methods to control foodborne pathogens in them, research is currently being focused on alternative preservation approaches, such as biopreservation with lactic acid bacteria (LAB). Here, a collection of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates was characterized to identify potential biopreservative agents. Six isolates (one Lactococcus lactis, one Lacticaseibacillus paracasei and four Lactiplantibacillus plantarum) were selected based on their antimicrobial activity in in vitro assays. Whole genome sequencing showed that none of the six LAB isolates carried known virulence factors or acquired antimicrobial resistance genes, and that the L. lactis isolate was potentially a nisin Z producer. Growth of L. monocytogenes was successfully limited by L. lactis ULE383, L. paracasei ULE721 and L. plantarum ULE1599 throughout the shelf-life of cooked ham, meatloaf and roasted pork shoulder. These LAB isolates were also applied individually or as a cocktail at different inoculum concentrations (4, 6 and 8 log10 CFU/g) in challenge test studies involving cooked ham, showing a stronger anti-Listerial activity when a cocktail was used at 8 log10 CFU/g. Thus, a reduction of up to ~5.0 log10 CFU/g in L. monocytogenes growth potential was attained in cooked ham packaged under vacuum, modified atmosphere packaging or vacuum followed by high pressure processing (HPP). Only minor changes in color and texture were induced, although there was a significant acidification of the product when the LAB cultures were applied. Remarkably, this acidification was delayed when HPP was applied to the LAB inoculated batches. Metataxonomic analyses showed that the LAB cocktail was able to grow in the cooked ham and outcompete the indigenous microbiota, including spoilage microorganisms such as Brochothrix. Moreover, none of the batches were considered unacceptable in a sensory evaluation. Overall, this study shows the favourable antilisterial activity of the cocktail of LAB employed, with the combination of HPP and LAB achieving a complete inhibition of the pathogen with no detrimental effects in physico-chemical or sensorial evaluations, highlighting the usefulness of biopreservation approaches involving LAB for enhancing the safety of cooked meat products.

Food Sci Anim Resour 2023; 43:580-593.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze whether seawater has positive effects on appearance characteristics, such as CIE a*, and to determine the gas composition concentration that is suitable for maintaining it. Pork hind meat was cured with four types of curing agent for 5 d at 4°C. The different curing agents comprised the control salt, control nitrite pickling salt (CN), treatment brine, and treatment bittern (BT). The cured hams were cooked at 65°C for 4 h and packaged at O2:N2 gas ratios of 7:3, 8:2, and 9:1 for 3 wk. The physicochemical properties were assessed immediately after heating the sample, and the color properties were measured after a 3 wk storage period. Based on the correlation results of the physicochemical properties, BT had a higher curing and cooking yield than the other treatments, owing to its high salinity. Results of color properties for BT (7:3) and CN (8:2) showed similar color CIE L*, CIE a* chroma, and hue angle values. Therefore, BT can be said to be a sous-vide curing agent suitable for preserving the color of ham, and a high nitrogen concentration of 30% helps to maintain the appearance of seawater sous-vide ham.

Abstract
Pork is often consumed in a very wide variety of products, processed from integral cuts or minced meat using different conservation methods (curing, smoking, cooking, drying, fermenting). Quality of pork products results from a combination between the properties of the raw material and the processing conditions to elaborate the final products. The influence of primary production factors, slaughtering and carcass processing on the quality of fresh pork has been reviewed (part 1), considering quality as an integrative combination of various attributes: commercial, organoleptic, nutritional, technological, convenience, and societal image, the latter denotes cultural, ethical (including animal welfare) and environment dimensions related to the way pork is produced, processed, and its geographical origin. This review (part 2) focuses on the influence of primary production factors and processing techniques on the quality of two important and economically significant processed pork products issued from contrasting processing techniques: cooked ham and dry-cured ham. As with fresh pork, many factors influence the quality of processed products, and one factor can affect several attributes. Moreover, in the case of processed products, numerous factors in both animal production and processing steps interact to determine their quality attributes. The quality of cooked ham depends on the properties of the raw material (in particular pH, colour, water holding capacity, presence of destructured meat defect, etc.) which are determined by pig husbandry practices (especially the genotype), pre-, postslaughter and processing conditions including the composition of curing mixture (ingredients, additives), salting, mixing and heat treatment. Processing techniques of cooked ham aim at homogenising the product quality within a given quality category (e.g. 'standard' or 'superior') or brand. Therefore, the variability of raw material is problematic for the cooked ham processing industry, which generally seeks uniformity and homogeneity of fresh hams. Likewise, pig husbandry conditions exert even greater impact on dry-cured ham quality. Indeed, the properties of raw material (including weight of fresh ham, fat thickness, pH, intramuscular fat and antioxidants content, fatty acid profile, etc.) that result from combined effects of primary production factors (genotype, feeding, production system, etc.) interact with processing conditions (salting, drying, ripening conditions and duration, etc.) to elaborate the quality attributes of the final products. Synergies can be sought between the primary production factors and processing techniques leading to specific organoleptic characteristics (texture, taste, aroma, flavour, etc.) that can be valued by quality labels. Quality of products is thus built along the whole chain from farm to fork.

Abstract
Data from epidemiological studies suggest that consumption of red and processed meat is a factor contributing to colorectal carcinogenesis. Red meat contains high amounts of heme, which in turn can be converted to its nitrosylated form, NO-heme, when adding nitrite-containing curing salt to meat. NO-heme might contribute to colorectal cancer formation by causing gene mutations and could thereby be responsible for the association of (processed) red meat consumption with intestinal cancer. Up to now, neither in vitro nor in vivo studies characterizing the mutagenic and cell transforming potential of NO-heme have been published due to the fact that the pure compound is not readily available. Therefore, in the present study, an already existing synthesis protocol was modified to yield, for the first time, purified NO-heme. Thereafter, newly synthesized NO-heme was chemically characterized and used in various in vitro approaches at dietary concentrations to determine whether it can lead to DNA damage and malignant cell transformation. While NO-heme led to a significant dose-dependent increase in the number of DNA strand breaks in the comet assay and was mutagenic in the HPRT assay, this compound tested negative in the Ames test and failed to induce malignant cell transformation in the BALB/c 3T3 cell transformation assay. Interestingly, the non-nitrosylated heme control showed similar effects, but was additionally able to induce malignant transformation in BALB/c 3T3 murine fibroblasts. Taken together, these results suggest that it is the heme molecule rather than the NO moiety which is involved in driving red meat-associated carcinogenesis.

Abstract
The amount of plastics used globally today exceeds a million tonnes annually, with an alarming annual growth. The final result is that plastic packaging is thrown into the environment, and the problem of waste is increasing every year. A real alternative is the use bio-based polymer packaging materials. Research carried out in the laboratory context and products tested at the industrial level have confirmed the success of replacing plastic-based packaging with new, edible or completely biodegradable foils. Of the polysaccharides used to obtain edible materials, sodium alginate has the ability to form films with certain specific properties: resistance, gloss, flexibility, water solubility, low permeability to O2 and vapors, and tasteless or odorless. Initially used as coatings for perishable or cut fresh fruits and vegetables, these sodium alginate materials can be applied to a wide range of foods, especially in the meat industry. Used to cover meat products, sodium alginate films prevent mass loss and degradation of color and texture. The addition of essential oils prevents microbial contamination with Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, or Botrytis cinerea. The obtained results promote the substitution of plastic packaging with natural materials based on biopolymers and, implicitly, of sodium alginate, with or without other natural additions. These natural materials have become the packaging of the future.

Abstract
This work evaluated the lipid oxidation and the changes in fatty acids in hot-smoked tuna (Thunnus albacares) as a function of brine concentration. Fresh, commercially harvested tuna fish samples were purchased from a local supermarket. The fish were first immersed for 30 min in a brine solution at 5, 10, or 15% sodium chloride concentration and were then smoked at 50 °C for 3 h followed by 1 h at 60 °C and 3 h at 105 °C. The fish were then dried for 17 h, cooled and stored at 4 °C. Oxidative rancidity was measured by the peroxide value (PV), and thiobarbituric acid number (TBA) and fatty acids profile by GC-MS. Oxidative rancidity increased with storage time. The PV and TBARS values were more pronounced for samples immersed in 10% brine solution during the first 27 days of storage, whereas the lowest increase was observed for samples treated with 15% salt. Fatty acid concentration exhibited changes after smoking, and this was varied with salt concentration. The palmitic acid and stearic acid, the two main saturated fatty acids in tuna, increased after smoking at all brine concentration, whereas the contents of oleic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid decreased. In conclusion, 15% NaCl-treated tuna gave smoked product with less lipid oxidation and a fatty acid profile comparable to that for 5 and 10% NaCl-treated samples.
