Antibacterial effect of ultrasound and β-citronellol against Listeria monocytogenes and its application in carrot preservation. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 102:106752. [PMID: 38211495 PMCID: PMC10788804 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2023] [Revised: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 12/31/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024]
Abstract
This study investigated the antibacterial effects of ultrasound (US), β-citronellol (CT), and a combination of the two treatments on Listeria monocytogenes. Results showed that US or CT alone did not show apparent antibacterial effect (0.02-0.76 log CFU/mL reduction). The combined treatment showed obviously inactivate effect of L. monocytogenes, the populations of L. monocytogenes decreased by 8.93 log CFU/mL after US (253 W/cm2, 20 kHz) + 0.8 mg/mL CT treatment. US + CT treatment also had a significant (P < 0.05) antibacterial effect on isolates of L. monocytogenes from three different serotypes. In this study, the damage of US + CT on cell morphology had been observed using field emission scanning electron microscopy, while the damage to cell membranes by US + CT was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy and flow cytometry. Meanwhile, the uptake of N-phenyl-l-naphthylamine and the absorbance at 260 and 280 nm also indicated that the combined treatment disrupted the permeability and integrity of L. monocytogenes membranes. Reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde assays showed that US + CT exacerbated cellular oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation. In addition, the US + CT treatment reduced L. monocytogenes by 3.14-4.24 log CFU/g on the surface of carrots. Total phenolic and carotenoid contents in carrots were elevated after US + CT treatment. During storage, compared to control, US + CT did not significantly (P > 0.05) change the surface color of carrots but significantly (P < 0.05) decreased both hardness and weight, and has an impact on the sensory. This study showed that US + CT is a promising cleaning method that will provide new ideas for the preservation of fresh agricultural produce.

Abstract
Campylobacter and pathogenic Escherichia coliillnesses have been attributed to the consumption of fresh produce. The leafy green, kale, is increasingly consumed raw. In comparison to other leafy greens, kale has a longer shelf-life. Due to the extended shelf-life of kale, it is warranted to examine the survival of pathogenic Campylobacter jejuni and E. coli O157:H7 inoculated on the surface of kale stored in a controlled environment at 4 ± 1.4°C, and average humidity of 95 ± 1.9% over a 23-day period. At predetermined time points (days 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, and 21), inoculated kale was destructively sampled and the surviving bacteria determined by serial dilution and plating onto Tryptic soy agar, Charcoal cefoperozone deoxycholate agar, and Eosin methylene blue for total aerobic bacteria, C. jejuni, and E. coli O157:H7, respectively. Enrichment and PCR were used for detection when pathogens were not detected using serial dilution and plating. Aerobic heterotrophic bacteria increased over the 23-day period, in contrast, significant declines in the inoculated pathogens were observed. Inoculated E. coli O157:H7 survived longer on kale (up to 19 d); in comparison, C. jejuni was undetectable by day 13 using enrichment and PCR or plating. In conclusion, C. jejuni and E. coli O157:H7 declined on fresh kale over time when held at refrigerated temperatures but were still detected during the majority of the time when the kale would likely still be considered edible by consumers.

Abstract
The foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes generally infects immunocompromised individuals, such as cancer patients, more frequently and with higher morbidity and mortality than the general population. Because of the anticipated risk associated with L. monocytogenes and other pathogens in produce, immunocompromised individuals are often placed on neutropenic diets that exclude fresh produce, though these risks have not been quantified. Therefore, this study developed a data-driven risk model for listeriosis in cancer patients who consume ready-to-eat (RTE) salads, consisting of leafy greens, cucumbers, and tomatoes, as influenced by kitchen-scale treatments and storage practices. Monte Carlo simulations were used to model the risk of invasive listeriosis during one chemotherapy cycle. Refrigerating all salad components decreased median risk by approximately one-half log. For refrigerated salads with no treatment, the predicted median risk was ≤ 4.3 × 10-08. When salad ingredients were surface blanched with greens rinsed, the predicted risk decreased to 5.4 × 10-10. Predicted risk was lowest (1.4 × 10-13) for a blanched "salad" consisting of solely cucumbers and tomatoes. Interestingly, rinsing, as recommended by FDA only decreased median risk by 1 log. A sensitivity analysis revealed that the highly variable dose-response parameter k strongly influenced risk, indicating that reducing uncertainty in this variable may improve model accuracy. Overall, this study demonstrates that kitchen-scale pathogen reduction approaches have high risk-reduction efficacy and could be considered as an alternative to diets that exclude produce when making risk management decisions.

Abstract
Ultrasound has been confirmed as the propagation process of mechanical vibrations in a medium, with a frequency significantly higher than 20 kHz. Moreover, it has an effect of sterilization on foods. In general, ultrasonic sterilization medium is manifested as a liquid. Ultrasonic treatment technology has certain advantages in aquatic product processing. It is noteworthy that this technology will have better effects of sterilization if used in combination with other treatment methods. Slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) is characterized by high-efficiency broad-spectrum sterilization operation, low cost, and environmental protection, among other properties, and has a positive effect on aquatic product sterilization and preservation. Selecting acidic electrolyzed water with a low concentration coupled with low-power ultrasonic waves for combined sterilization exerts a more potent sterilization effect, and acidic electrolyzed water combined with ultrasonic sterilization is expected to be a potentially environment-friendly alternative. In this study, the sterilization mechanisms of ultrasonic and SAEW methods used both individually and as a synergistic treatment, the effect on microbial growth, and the research progress of the application of the combined effect in the sterilization and refrigeration of aquatic products are reviewed. Furthermore, this study looks forward to the future development trend, with a view to its application in aquatic products, while providing a reference for research and application in the field of processing and safety.

Abstract
Leafy vegetables are associated with Listeriosis outbreaks due to contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. To date, contradictory findings were reported on spinach, rocket, and kale, where some studies reported growth of L. monocytogenes, while others did not. Thus, the current study investigated the reason for conflicting findings by producing leafy vegetables, where cultivation factors were known for growth potential studies. Of all polytunnel produce, kale Nero di Toscana demonstrated the highest growth potential (2.56 log cfu g−1), followed by spinach F1 Cello (1.84 log cfu g−1), rocket Buzz (1.41 log cfu g−1), spinach F1 Trumpet (1.37 log cfu g−1), and finally rocket Esmee (1.23 log cfu g−1). Thus, plant species and variety influenced L. monocytogenes growth potentials. Moreover, significantly lower growth potentials of 0.3 log cfu g−1 were identified when rocket Buzz was cultivated in open fields (1.11 log cfu g−1) instead of a polytunnel. The opposite effect was observed for spinach F1 Trumpet, where growth potentials increased significantly by 0.84 log cfu g−1 when cultivated in open fields (2.21 log cfu g−1). Furthermore, a significant seasonality effect between batches was found (p < 0.05). This study revealed that spinach and rocket cultivation conditions are at least co-factors in the reporting of differing growth potentials of L. monocytogenes across literature and should be considered when conducting future growth potential studies.

Abstract
Fresh-cut vegetables are minimally processed healthy products that have gained the preference of consumers in accordance to the current lifestyle. Fresh-cut industry is continuously evolving and pursuing new varieties of raw material to develop innovative vegetable products, which fulfil consumer expectations. The current study evaluated the phenolic compounds in an innovative vegetable mix (red cabbage, rocket, parsley and beet greens) as well as their antioxidant capacity and bioaccessibility during their shelf life under refrigerated storage. The initial total phenolic compound and flavonoids content in the salad mixture were 163.3 ± 5.77 mg GAE/100 g FW and 280.96 ± 25.14 mg QE/100 g FW, respectively. The initial antioxidant capacity in the salad mixture was 85.4 ± 7.9 mg TE/100 g FW for DPPH and 318.1 ± 26.5 mg TE/100 g FW for ABTS assays. After digestion, total phenolic compound and TEAC capacity at initial times showed percentage of recovery values close to the chemical extraction and suffered a decrease towards day 10 of storage. Flavonoids and DPPH capacity showed recovery percentages less than 50%, at all storage times. Regarding sensory quality, the shelf-life of the salad mixture was limited by the presence of unacceptable off-odors at day 7 but since at microbiological evaluation, the shelf-life of the product is no longer than 5 days.

Abstract
Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of plasma activated water (PAW) for inactivating Escherichia coli and retention of key quality factors for kale. Different plasma discharge times (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 minutes) and different exposure times (2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 15 minutes) were used to investigate the inactivation effect of E. coli spot-inoculated on kale. The influence of different exposure times on the pH, hardness and color of kale was studied post- treatment. In addition, the effects of PAW on the shelf-life of kale over 12 days of storage at 4 °C was investigated. The results showed that after the treatment of 5-PAW-8 (8 min treatment by PAW generated by 5 min plasma discharge), the population of E. coli on kale was reduced about 1.55 log CFU/g and the changes of pH, hardness and color of kale were not significant (P > 0.05). During the storage period after 5-PAW-8 treatment, the statue of hardness, weight loss, color, surface morphology and ascorbic acid were found to be better than two control groups (P < 0.05). Furthermore, no significant changes were observed in pH values, the content of total phenols and 1,1-dipheny1-2-picrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging capacity (P > 0.05). It is indicated that PAW treatment is a promising method for improving the microbiological safety and extending the shelf-life of kale.

Abstract
Inspired by Namib Desert beetle and leaf venation, a wettability-integrated system consisting of wettability-hybrid coatings and venation-like patterns was designed and successfully fabricated via a simple, low-cost, and eco-friendly route. The as-prepared surface can construct a 3D topography with a water layer and efficiently drain through the venation-like patterns. The combination of multiple mechanisms enhances the fog harvesting ability significantly. Meanwhile, the synergistic mechanisms of fog harvesting enhancement by a wettability-integrated surface were further studied and discussed.

Abstract
Abstract
In the present study, the bactericidal efficacy of slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) against L. monocytogenes planktonic cells and biofilm on food-contact surfaces including stainless steel and glass was systematically evaluated. The results showed that SAEW (pH of 5.09 and available chlorine concentration (ACC) of 60.33 mg/L) could kill L. monocytogenes on food-contact surfaces completely in 30 s, whose disinfection efficacy is equal to that of NaClO solutions (pH of 9.23 and ACC of 253.53 mg/L). The results showed that long exposure time and high ACC contributed to the enhancement of the disinfection efficacy of SAEW on L. monocytogenes on food-contact surfaces. Moreover, the log reduction of SAEW treatment presented an increasing tendency within the prolonging of treatment time when SAEW was used to remove the L. monocytogenes biofilm formed on stainless steel and glass surfaces, which suggested that SAEW could remove L. monocytogenes biofilm effectively and its disinfection efficacy is equal to (in case of stainless steel) or higher than (in case of glass) that of high ACC of NaClO solutions. In addition, the results of the crystal violet staining and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) also demonstrated that SAEW treatment could remove the L. monocytogenes biofilm on food-contact surfaces.

Abstract
Effects of ultrasound (US, 300, 400, and 500 W) and slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW, 10, 30, and 50 mg/L) combination on inactivating Rhizopus stolonifer in sweet potato tuberous roots (TRs) were investigated. US at 300, 400, and 500 W simultaneous SAEW with available chlorine concentration of 50 mg/L at 40 and 55 °C for 10 min significantly inhibited colony diameters (from 90.00 to 6.00-71.62 mm) and spores germination (p < 0.05). US + SAEW treatment could destroy cell membrane integrity and lead to the leakage of nucleic acids and proteins (p < 0.05). Scanning and transmission electron microscopy results showed that US + SAEW treatment could damage ultrastructure of R. stolonifer, resulted in severe cell-wall pitting, completely disrupted into debris, apparent separation of plasma wall, massive vacuoles space, and indistinct intracellular organelles. US500 + SAEW50 treatment at 40 and 55 °C increased cell membrane permeability, and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential of R. stolonifer. In addition, US500 + SAEW50 at 40 °C and US300 + SAEW50 at 55 °C controlled R. stolonifer growth in sweet potato TRs during 20 days of storage, suggesting effective inhibition on the infection of R. stolonifer. Therefore, US + SAEW treatment could be a new efficient alternative method for storing and preserving sweet potato TRs.

Abstract
Electrolyzed oxidizing water (EOW) is one of the promising novel antimicrobial agents that have recently been proposed as the alternative to conventional decontamination methods such as heat and chemical sanitizers. Acidic EOW with pH ranging from 2 to 5 is regarded most applicable in the antimicrobial treatment of vegetables and meats. Neutral and alkaline electrolyzed water have also been explored in few studies for their applications in the food industry. Neutral electrolyzed water is proposed to solve the problems related to the storage and corrosion effect of acidic EOW. Recently, the research focus has been shifted toward the application of slightly acidic EOW as more effective with some supplemental physical and chemical treatment methods such as ultrasound and UV radiations. The different applications of electrolyzed water range from drinking water and wastewater to food, utensil, and hard surfaces. The recent studies also conclude that electrolyzed water is more effective in suspensions as compared with the food surfaces where longer retention times are required. The commercialization of EOW instruments is not adopted frequently in many countries due to the potential corrosion problems associated with acidic electrolyzed water. This review article summarizes the EOW types and possible mechanism of action as well as highlights the most recent research studies in the field of antimicrobial applications and cleaning. Electrolyzed water can replace conventional chemical decontamination methods in the industry and household. However, more research is needed to know its actual mechanism of antimicrobial action along with the primary concerns related to EOW in the processing of different food products.

Abstract
Physicochemical and microbiological properties of pork chops sprayed with Neutral Electrolyzed Water (NEW) were evaluated during storage at refrigeration temperature. Pork chops were randomly allocated into three groups and were artificially contaminated with an inoculum of 106 CFU/mL of Listeria monocytogenes. Each group was treated with either NEW (58 ppm), NaClO (35 ppm), or saline solution (SS). Subsequently, recovered bacteria were plated on TSA petri dishes and the reduction percentage of Listeria monocytogenes was calculated 24 h and 8 days after treatment. Physicochemical analysis [pH, content of lactic acid, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and total volatile base nitrogen (TVBN)] were performed to evaluate the effect of all solutions used on pork meat kept at 4 °C for 19 days. In vitro NEW reduced L. monocytogenes titers by > 99.98% and 80.19% and 90.35% in artificially contaminated pork 24 h and 8 days after NEW treatment, respectively. Compared to the SS treatment, NEW and NaClO solutions caused a 0.67 Log UFC/g and 0.65 Log UFC/g reduction respectively. After eight days post-treatment, NEW and NaClO bacterial titers were below the SS treatment. NEW caused little color change in treated meat. It helped to reduce the formation of lactic acid and TVB-N when pork chops are kept at 4 °C for 19 days. Therefore, NEW could be considered as a new alternative to sanitize and preserve pork meat.

Abstract
Ultraviolet-C radiation and ultrasound technology are widely accepted and continuously being appraised as alternatives to conventional thermal techniques for decontamination of fruits and vegetables. However, studies in these areas have presented challenges related to quality, safety, limited capability, and cost of energy. This review paper presents an up-to-date summary of applications of ultraviolet-C radiation and ultrasound technology for postharvest handling of fruits and vegetables from relevant literature. The limitations associated with applications of ultraviolet-C radiation and ultrasound technology individually has prompted their combination alongside other antimicrobial strategies for enhanced bactericidal effect. The combination of ultraviolet-C radiation and ultrasound technology as a hurdle approach also provides enhanced efficiency, cost effectiveness, and reduced processing time without compromising quality. The review includes further scope of industrial-led collaboration and commercialization of ultraviolet-C radiation and ultrasound technology such as scale-up studies and process optimization.

Abstract
Biological creatures with unique surface wettability have long served as a source of inspiration for scientists and engineers. More specifically, certain beetle species in the Namib Desert have evolved to collect water from fog on their backs by way of wettability patterns, which attracted an ongoing interest in biomimetic studies. Bioinspired materials exhibiting extreme wetting properties, such as superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic surfaces, have attracted considerable attention because of their potential use in various applications. Combining these two extreme states of superhydrophilicity and superhydrophobicity on the same surface in precise two-dimensional micropatterns opens exciting new functionalities and possibilities for a wide variety of applications. In this review we briefly describe the water-harvesting mechanisms of a genus of Namib Desert beetle, Stenocarpa, consisting of the theory of wetting and transporting. Then we describe the methods for fabricating superhydrophilic-superhydrophobic patterns and highlight some of the newer and emerging applications of these patterned substrates that are currently being explored. Finally, we provide conclusions and outlook concerning the future development of bioinspired surfaces of patterned wettability.

Abstract
Food demand is increasing every year and, usually animal-derived products are generated far from consumer-places. New technologies are being developed to preserve quality characteristics during processing and transportation. One of them is electrolyzed water (EW) that helps to avoid or decrease the development of foodborne pathogens, or losses by related bacteria. Initially, EW was used in ready-to-eat foods such as spinach, lettuce, strawberries, among others; however, its application in other products is under study. Every product has unique characteristics that require an optimized application of EW. Different sanitizers have been developed; unfortunately, they could have undesirable effects like deterioration of quality or alterations in sensory properties. Therefore, EW is gaining popularity in the food industry due to its characteristics: easy application and storage, no corrosion of work surfaces, absence of mucosal membrane irritation in workers handling food, and it is considered environmentally friendly. This review highlights the advantages of using EW in animal products like chicken, pork, beef, eggs and fish to preserve their safety and quality.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Understanding a food's ability to support the growth and/or survival of a pathogen throughout the supply chain is essential to minimizing large-scale contamination events. The purpose of this study was to examine the behavior (growth and/or survival) of Listeria monocytogenes on broccoli and cauliflower florets stored at different postharvest temperatures utilized along the supply chain. Broccoli and cauliflower samples were inoculated with L. monocytogenes at approximately 3 log CFU/g and stored at 23 ± 2, 12 ± 2, 4 ± 2, and -18 ± 2°C. Samples were evaluated for L. monocytogenes levels after 0, 0.167 (4 h), 1, 2, 3, and 4 days at 23 ± 2°C; 0, 0.167, 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 10, and 14 days at 12 ± 2°C; 0, 0.167, 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 days at 4 ± 2°C; and 0, 1, 7, 28, 56, 84, 112, 140, and 168 days at -18 ± 2°C. L. monocytogenes populations were determined by plating samples onto tryptic soy agar and modified Oxford agar supplemented with nalidixic acid. Broccoli and cauliflower supported the growth of L. monocytogenes at 23, 12, and 4°C, and higher growth rates were observed at higher temperatures. Populations of L. monocytogenes on broccoli and cauliflower samples significantly increased within 1 day at 23°C (by 1.6 and 2.0 log CFU/g, respectively) (P ≤ 0.05). At 12°C, populations of L. monocytogenes on broccoli and cauliflower samples significantly increased over 14 days by 1.4 and 1.9 log CFU/g, respectively (P ≤ 0.05). No significant difference over time was observed in L. monocytogenes populations on broccoli and cauliflower samples held under refrigeration until populations began to grow by day 10 in both commodities (P > 0.05). Under frozen storage (-18°C), populations of L. monocytogenes survived on broccoli and cauliflower at least up to 168 days. Storage of broccoli and cauliflower at lower temperatures can minimize L. monocytogenes growth potential; growth rates were lower at 4°C than at 12 and 23°C. HIGHLIGHTS

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes may be present in produce-associated environments (e.g., fields, packing houses); thus, understanding its growth and survival on intact, whole produce is of critical importance. The goal of this study was to identify and characterize published data on the growth and/or survival of L. monocytogenes on intact fruit and vegetable surfaces. Relevant studies were identified by searching seven electronic databases: AGRICOLA, CAB Abstracts, Center for Produce Safety funded research project final reports, FST Abstracts, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Web of Science. Searches were conducted using the following terms: Listeria monocytogenes, produce, growth, and survival. Search terms were also modified and "exploded" to find all related subheadings. Included studies had to be prospective, describe methodology (e.g., inoculation method), outline experimental parameters, and provide quantitative growth and/or survival data. Studies were not included if methods were unclear or inappropriate, or if produce was cut, processed, or otherwise treated. Of 3,459 identified citations, 88 were reviewed in full and 29 studies met the inclusion criteria. Included studies represented 21 commodities, with the majority of studies focusing on melons, leafy greens, berries, or sprouts. Synthesis of the reviewed studies suggests L. monocytogenes growth and survival on intact produce surfaces differ substantially by commodity. Parameters such as temperature and produce surface characteristics had a considerable effect on L. monocytogenes growth and survival dynamics. This review provides an inventory of the current data on L. monocytogenes growth and/or survival on intact produce surfaces. Identification of which intact produce commodities support L. monocytogenes growth and/or survival at various conditions observed along the supply chain will assist the industry in managing L. monocytogenes contamination risk.

Abstract
Global food security remains one of the most important challenges that needs to be addressed to ensure the increasing demand for food of the fast growing human population is satisfied. Fruits and vegetables comprise an essential component of a healthy balanced diet as they are the major source of both macro- and micronutrients. They are particularly important for communities in developing countries whose nutrition often relies solely on a plant-based diet. Recent advances in agriculture and food processing technologies have facilitated production of fresh, nutritious and safe food for consumers. However, despite the development of sophisticated chemical and physical methods of food and equipment disinfection, fresh-cut produce and fruit juice industry still faces significant economic losses due to microbial spoilage. Furthermore, fresh produce remains an important source of pathogens that have been causing outbreaks of human illness worldwide. This chapter characterizes common spoilage and human pathogenic microorganisms associated with fresh-cut produce and fruit juice products, and discusses the methods and technology that have been developed and utilized over the years to combat them. Substantial attention is given to highlight advantages and disadvantages of using these methods to reduce microbial spoilage and their efficacy to eliminate human pathogenic microbes associated with consumption of fresh-cut produce and fruit juice products.

Abstract
In this study, a total of 195 samples including fresh produce and farming environments was used to perform the microbial risk assessment. Levels of total aerobic bacteria ranged from 2.77 to 5.99, 6.28 to 7.81, and 1.31 to 2.74 log10 CFU/g, whereas levels of coliforms were ≤ 2.48, ≤ 3.35, and ≤ 0.85 log10 CFU/g, levels of Escherichia coli were ≤ 1.04, ≤ 0.12, and ≤ 1.69 log10 CFU/g in fresh produce, soil, and irrigation water, respectively. When the presence of pathogenic bacteria was detected, only Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus were isolated from 14 (7.2%) and 7 (3.6%) samples out of 195 samples, respectively. From the results, it was difficult to find a strong correlation between microbial contamination of fresh produce and their farming environments. However, continuous monitoring of agricultural products and related environments should be undertaken in order to ensure the microbial safety of fresh produce.

Abstract
Electrolyzed oxidizing water (EOW) can be divided into acidic electrolyzed oxidizing water (AEOW) and slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW). AEOW has the characteristics of low pH (pH < 2.7) and high oxidation-reduction potential (ORP > 1100 mV). SAEW is slightly acidic (pH = 5-6) and has an ORP of 700-900 mV. AEOW and SAEW both have a certain amount of active chlorine content (ACC), so they have the characteristics of broad spectrum, rapidity and high efficiency of sterilization. At present, there is little systematic research on AEOW and SAEW preparation. However, it is very important to study the preparation process, including electrode material and electrolytic process. First, the effects of Pt electrodes with different thermal decomposition temperatures on AEOW's pH, ORP and ACC values were investigated in detail. Next, for the SAEW preparation, the process is based on the preparation of AEOW by ion-exchange membrane electrolysis, reasonably mixing the electrolyzed cathode and anode solution. The effects of technological conditions such as electrolysis time, current density and electrolyte concentration have been systematically studied, and it is expected to get SAEW with a pH value slightly less than 7, a higher ORP value and a certain amount of ACC.

Abstract
Studies on slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) for decontamination and shelf life extension of beef are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of SAEW and tea polyphenols (Tpp) on the microbiological, physicochemical, and sensory qualities of fresh beef during storage. The changes in total viable count, thiobarbituric acid content, pH, total volatile basic nitrogen, and sensory scores revealed that the required quality standard of the beef treated with distilled water, Tpp, and SAEW was maintained for up to 6-8, 12-14, and 14-16 days, respectively. These results demonstrated that SAEW could effectively extend the shelf life of beef in comparison with that of other treatments. However, there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) between the untreated and SAEW-treated group in the content of thiobarbituric acid, suggesting that SAEW does not possess antioxidant activity. Therefore, further studies are required to increase its antioxidant activity. This study suggests that SAEW treatment is an effective and promising method to prolong the shelf life of beef by around 8 days at 4°C.

Abstract
Foodborne disease outbreak caused by food microbiological contamination is a serious public health problem. Slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW), a new ultra-high effect and wide-spectrum disinfectant that is colourless, odourless, and harmless to humans and the environment, is directly used on food surfaces in Japan and America. However, the underlying inactivation mechanism remains unknown. In this study, biochemical and cellular changes were observed to investigate the bactericidal mechanism of SAEW against Escherichia coli (E. coli). The results indicated that SAEW with a pH of 6.40, an oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) of 910 mV, an available chlorine concentration (ACC) of 60 mg/L, and a volume ratio of 20:1, produced the most effective sterilization action. A fluorescence-based live-dead assay was further used to demonstrate the sterilized effect and the cell esterase activity damage caused by SAEW. During the observation period, within 10 min, the cell morphology changed, which was characterized by cell expansion, cell elongation and increased membrane permeability. Meanwhile, reactive oxygen substances (ROS) were released in the bacterial cells. E. coli inactivation and apoptosis induced by SAEW were observed. Our findings illustrate that the bactericidal effects of SAEW against E. coli occurred through cellular and biochemical mechanisms of cell necrosis and apoptosis.

Abstract
The growth of epiphytic bacteria (aerobic mesophilic bacteria or Pseudomonas spp.) on kale was modeled isothermally and validated under dynamic storage temperatures. Each bacterial count on kale stored at isothermal conditions (4 to 25 °C) was recorded. The results show that maximum growth rate (μmax ) of both epiphytic bacteria increased and lag time (λ) decreased with increasing temperature (P < 0.05). The maximum population density (Nmax ) of Pseudomonas spp. was significantly greater than that of aerobic mesophilic bacteria, particularly in treated samples and/or at 4 and 10 °C (P < 0.05). The relationship between μmax of both epiphytic bacteria and temperature was linear (R(2) > 0.97), whereas lower R(2) > 0.86 and R(2) > 0.87 was observed for the λ and Nmax , respectively. The overall predictions of both epiphytic bacterial growths under nonisothermal conditions with temperature abuse of 15 °C agreed with the observed data, whereas those with temperature abuse of 25 °C were greatly overestimated. The appropriate parameter q0 (physiological state of cells), therefore, was adjusted by a trial and error to fit the model. This study demonstrates that the developed model was able to predict accurately epiphytic bacterial growth on kale stored under nonisothermal conditions particularly those with low temperature abuse of 15 °C.

Abstract
Nowadays, water shortage is a severe issue all over the world, especially in some arid and undeveloped areas. Interestingly, a variety of natural creatures can collect water from fog, which can provide a source of inspiration to develop novel and functional water-collecting materials. Recently, as an increasingly hot research topic, bioinspired materials with the water collection ability have captured vast scientific attention in both practical applications and fundamental research studies. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms of water collection in various natural creatures and present the fabrications, functions, applications, and new developments of bioinspired materials in recent years. The theoretical basis related to the phenomenon of water collection containing wetting behaviors and water droplet transportations is described in the beginning, i.e., the Young's equation, Wenzel model, Cassie model, surface energy gradient model and Laplace pressure equation. Then, the water collection mechanisms of three typical and widely researched natural animals and plants are discussed and their corresponding bioinspired materials are simultaneously detailed, which are cactus, spider, and desert beetles, respectively. This is followed by introducing another eight animals and plants (butterfly, shore birds, wheat awns, green bristlegrass, the Cotula fallax plant, Namib grass, green tree frogs and Australian desert lizards) that are rarely reported, exhibiting water collection properties or similar water droplet transportation. Finally, conclusions and outlook concerning the future development of bioinspired fog-collecting materials are presented.
