Abstract
Vacuum Impregnation (VI) act as promising method for rapidly introducing specific concentration solutions into food matrices using a hydrodynamic mechanism and deformation phenomenon to attain a product with specific tailored functional quality characteristics. VI facilitates rapid introduction of specific solutions into the food matrices. This technique allows efficient incorporation of bioactive compounds and nutritional components, meeting the rising consumer demand for functional foods. Furthermore, VI when combined with non-thermal techniques, opens up new avenues for preserving higher quality attributes and enhancing antimicrobial effects. The unique ability of VI to rapidly infuse specific solutions into food matrices, combined with the advantages of non-thermal processes, addresses the growing consumer demand for products enriched with bioactive ingredients. Hence, the present review aims to explore the potential impact of VI, coupled with novel techniques, on food quality, its practical applications, and the enhancement of process efficiency for large-scale industrial production.

Abstract
Protein deterioration caused by ice crystals is an important factors affecting the frozen storage of fish. In this study, antifreeze peptides extracted from hydrolysates of sea cucumber intestinal protein with inhibition of protein denaturation were screened and characterized. The peptide Leu-Pro-Glu-Phe-Thr-Glu-Glu-Glu-Lys (LPEFTEEEK), derived from neutral protease hydrolysates of sea cucumber intestinal protein, was investigated for its potential to enhance the quality of salmon fillets during three freeze-thaw cycles. The results showed that the application of LPEFTEEEK effectively maintained the texture of fish fillets, as well as the oxidative and conformation stability of myofibrillar protein during the freezing process. Additionally, molecular dynamics simulations verified that LPEFTEEEK could bind to ice crystals and inhibit their recrystallization, thus preventing organisms from being damaged by freezing. This suggests that LPEFTEEEK holds significant promise as a novel cryoprotective agent for marine-derived antifreeze peptides.

Abstract
The two limiting factors for lentil protein utilization are water solubility and digestibility. In this study, we utilized two non-thermal techniques: (1) protein complexation of lentil and casein proteins using the pH-shifting method and (2) protein conjugation with trehalose to produce trehalose-conjugated lentil-casein protein complexes (T-CPs) with enhanced water solubility and digestibility. The protein structure of the T-CPs was analyzed for secondary protein structure, conformation protein, and tertiary protein structure using Fourier-transform infrared, UV, and fluorescence spectroscopies, respectively. The surface hydrophobicity and surface charge of T-CPs solution at pH 7.0 changed significantly (P < 0.05). Using these two non-thermal techniques, the water solubility and digestibility of T-CPs increased significantly (P < 0.05) by 85 to 89 % and 80 to 85 %, respectively. The results of this study suggested that these non-thermal techniques could enhance the surface and protein structure properties, improving water solubility and digestibility.

Integrated ultra-high pressure and salt addition to improve the in vitro digestibility of myofibrillar proteins from scallop mantle (Patinopecten yessoensis). Food Chem 2024; 447:138985.

Abstract
Myofibrillar protein (MP) is susceptible to the effect of ionic strength and ultra-high pressure (UHP) treatment, respectively. However, the impact of UHP combined with ionic strength on the structure and in vitro digestibility of MP from scallop mantle (Patinopecten yessoensis) is not yet clear. Therefore, it is particularly important to analyze the structural properties and enhance the in vitro digestibility of MP by NaCl and UHP treatment. The findings demonstrated that as ionic strength increased, the α-helix and β-sheet gradually transformed into β-turn and random coil. The decrease of endogenous fluorescence intensity indicated the formation of a more stable tertiary structure. Additionally, the exposure of internal sulfhydryl groups increased the amount of total sulfhydryl content, and reactive sulfhydryl groups gradually transformed into disulfide bonds. Moreover, it reduces aggregation through increased solubility, decreased turbidity, particle sizes, and a relatively dense and uniform microstructure. When MP from the scallop mantle was treated with 0.5 mol/L ionic strength and 200 MPa UHP treatment, it had the highest solubility (90.75 ± 0.13%) and the lowest turbidity (0.41 ± 0.03). The scallop mantle MP with NaCl of 0.3 mol/L and UHP treatment had optimal in vitro digestibility (95.14 ± 2.01%). The findings may offer a fresh perspectives for developing functional foods for patients with dyspepsia and a theoretical foundation for the comprehensive utilization of scallop mantle by-products with low concentrations of NaCl.

Abstract
The oxidation of fish lipids and proteins is interconnected. The LOX (lipoxygenase)-catalyzed LA (linoleic acid) oxidation system on MPs (myofibrillar proteins) was established in vitro, to investigate the impact of lipoxidation on the physicochemical properties of fish MPs. By detecting HNE (4-hydroxy-2-nonenal) concentration during LA oxidation, the HNE treatment system was established to investigate the role of HNE in this process. In addition, the site specificity of modification on MPs was detected utilizing LC-MS/MS. Both treatments could induce sidechain modification, increase particle size, and cause loss of nutritional value through the reduction in amino acid content of MPs. The HNE group is more likely to alter the MPs' surface hydrophobicity compared to the LA group. By increasing the exposure of modification sites in MPs, the HNE group has more types and number of modifications compared to the LA group. LA group mainly induced the modification of single oxygen addition on MPs instead, which accounted for over 50 % of all modifications. The LA group induced a more pronounced reduction in the solubility of MPs as compared to the HNE group. In conclusion, HNE binding had a high susceptibility to Lys on MPs. Protein aggregation, peptide chain fragmentation, and decreased solubility occurred in the LA group mainly induced by peroxide generated during lipid oxidation or the unreacted LA instead of HNE. This study fills in the mechanism of lipoxidation on protein oxidation in fish and sheds light on the HNE modification sites of MPs, paving the way for the development of oxidation control technology.

Abstract
This multiscale study aimed to evaluate the effects of different salts (NaCl, KCl, MgCl2, and CaCl2) on the foaming capacity (FC) and foam stability (FS) of model protein systems (MPS) for infant formula via changes in surface and structural properties. Our results showed that the FC and FS of MPS were increased with the addition of NaCl, KCl, and MgCl2, whereas CaCl2 significantly decreased FC (79.5 ± 10.6%) and increased FS (93.2 ± 2.2%). The surface hydrophobicity was increased and the net charge and surface tension were reduced after the addition of salts. Structural analysis revealed the reduction of intensity of intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy and UV absorption, and the conversion of α-helix into β-strand, which was attributed to protein agglomeration. Additionally, MgCl2 and CaCl2 exhibited larger size and lower net charge compared with NaCl and KCl, indicating a greater ability to bind to charged amino acids and form larger aggregates. Correlation analysis indicated that FC was positively related to adsorbed protein and β-turn and negatively correlated with particle size. In addition, FS showed a positive correlation with β-strand, apparent viscosity, and zeta potential. However, it exhibited a negative correlation with β-turn, α-helix, and sulfhydryl content. These results provide a theoretical reference for further understanding of the effect of salts on the foaming properties of MPS.

Abstract
The effect of low-voltage electrostatic field (LVEF) assisted -9 °C (LVEF-9) and -12 °C (LVEF-12) frozen, non-LVEF-assisted -9 °C (NLVEF-9) and -12 °C (NLVEF-12) frozen, and conventional frozen (CF-18, -18 °C) storage on the muscle microstructure and the oxidative denaturation of the lamb protein during the subsequent frozen storage process after finishing initial freezing was investigated. Compared with NLVEF-9, LVEF-9, and NLVEF-12, LVEF-12 maintained the better integrity of muscle microstructure, demonstrated by smaller holes, more complete Z-line and M-line, and no significant difference with CF-18 (P > 0.05). Furthermore, LVEF-12 effectively inhibited protein oxidative denaturation as shown by the lower carbonyl content, surface hydrophobicity, and higher total/active sulfhydryl groups and Ca2+-ATPase activity. Moreover, LVEF-12 effectively maintained the integrity of the secondary and tertiary structure of proteins, reduced cross-linking aggregation of proteins, and sustained better functional properties, as shown by higher α-helix content, fluorescence intensity, protein solubility, and lower R-value, disulfide bonds.

A comprehensive study of sous-vide cooked Korat chicken breast processed by various conditions: texture, compositional/structural changes, and consumer acceptance. Poult Sci 2024; 103:103495. [PMID: 38354473 PMCID: PMC10875293 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2024.103495] [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: 12/03/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Korat chicken (KC) is a slow-growing crossbreed renowned for its excellent growth and firm texture. This study investigated the effect of various sous-vide (SV) conditions (60 and 70°C, 1-3 h) on their texture, protein structure and degradation, as well as consumer acceptability, with the traditional boiling served as control. Texture showed significant improvement under all SV conditions compared to the control, as demonstrated by increased water holding capacity (WHC), cooking loss, and decreased shear force, hardness, and chewiness (P < 0.05). These changes corresponded to the higher sensory scores (P < 0.05). Among the SV samples, increased temperatures and longer cooking times led to higher degradation of myofibrils and connective tissue, as evidenced by a decrease in water-, salt-soluble proteins, and soluble collagen (P < 0.05). These findings aligned with the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results, which showed a looser muscle structure in the meat under more intense cooking conditions. Based on synchrotron radiation-based Fourier transform infrared (SR-FTIR) results, a gradual increase in antiparallel forms within the amide I bands (1,700-1,600 cm-1) of the total spectra with higher temperature and longer cooking times was observed (P < 0.05), while the fluctuations were observed in the changes of α-helix, β-sheet, and β-turn structures. This suggested that the antiparallel structure represented a looser configuration developing during intense SV cooking. Combined with the principal component analysis (PCA) results, the findings indicated that the suitable SV condition for KC breast meat was 70°C for varying durations (1-3 h), as it showed the strongest correlation with sensory scores, particularly in terms of tenderness. In summary, these findings provided a better understanding of molecular changes and discovered SV conditions to enhance the texture quality of the KC meat.

Effects of Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide with ice recrystallization inhibition activity on the quality of beef patties during freeze-thaw cycles: An emphasis on water status and distribution. Meat Sci 2024; 209:109420.

Abstract
The antifreeze activity of Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide (FVP) autoclave-extracted with dilute alkaline and effects of FVP on moisture status, size of ice crystals, physical and chemical characteristics of beef patties during repeated freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles were investigated. Results showed that FVP exhibited ice recrystallization inhibition activity and was able to alter the onset freezing/melting temperature of beef patties. 0.01% FVP significantly alleviated (P < 0.05) the decrement in water holding capacity by inhibiting water migration, restraining the mobility of water, and reducing the size of ice crystals of beef patties during the repeated F-T cycles. In addition, FVP could effectively inhibited oxidation reaction and protein aggregation of beef patties with significant decreases in TBARS value, protein turbidity, contents of total sulfhydryl and carbonyl of myofibrillar protein, and an increase in protein solubility during the repeated cycles. These results suggest FVP could be developed to be a promising cryoprotectant in frozen patties.

Wang Z, Liu W, Duan X, Ren G, Li L, Cao W, Guo J, Jiao X, Zhu L, Wei X. Effects of freezing and drying programs on IgY aggregation and activity during microwave freeze-drying: Protective effects and interactions of trehalose and mannitol. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 260:129448. [PMID: 38228204 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129448] [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: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/18/2024]
Abstract
The acquisition of high quality lyophilized IgY products, characterized by an aesthetically pleasing visage, heightened stability, and a marked preservation of activity, constitutes an indispensable pursuit in augmenting the safety and pragmatic utility of IgY. Within this context, an exploration was undertaken to investigate an innovative modality encompassing microwave freeze-drying (MFD) as a preparatory methodology of IgY. Morphological assessments revealed that both cryogenic freezing and subsequent MFD procedures resulted in aggregation of IgY, with the deleterious influence posed by the MFD phase transcending that of the freezing phase. The composite protective agent comprised of trehalose and mannitol engendered a safeguarding effect on the structural integrity of IgY, thereby attenuating reducing aggregation between IgY during the freeze-drying process. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) outcomes demonstrated a discernible correlation between IgY aggregation and a notable reduction in its binding affinity towards the pertinent antigen. Comparative analysis vis-à-vis the control sample delineated that when the trehalose-to-mannitol ratio was upheld at 1:3, a two-fold outcome was achieved: a mitigation of the collapse susceptibility within the final product as well as a deterrence of IgY agglomeration, concomitant with an elevated preservation rate of active antibodies (78.57 %).

Effects of static magnetic field (SMF) and alternating magnetic field (AMF) assisted freezing on the microstructure and protein properties of channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) fillet. Food Chem 2024; 434:137509. [PMID: 37742547 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023]
Abstract
The effect of static and alternating magnetic fields assisted freezing with intensity of 1, 2, and 3 mT on the microstructure and protein properties of channel catfish fillet were investigated. The results showed that the magnetic field treatment shortened the phase transition time of freezing, and significantly reduced the size of the formed ice crystals. The changes of trichloroacetic acid-soluble peptide, Ca2+-ATPase activity, particle size, and Zeta potential, which represented solubility, denaturation and aggregation of protein, indicated that magnetic field treatment could improve the protein stability. The chemical force analysis, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results proved that the magnetic field could change the structure of protein. Furthermore, these changes had effects on the thermal stability of catfish meat protein which reflected by increasing of the transition temperature and enthalpy. However, the waveform and intensity of magnetic field affected the stability of protein structure.

The Protection of Quinoa Protein on the Quality of Pork Patties during Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Physicochemical Properties, Sensory Quality and Protein Oxidative. Foods 2024; 13:522. [PMID: 38397499 PMCID: PMC10887504 DOI: 10.3390/foods13040522] [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: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/03/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The present study investigated the impact of quinoa protein (QP) on the physicochemical properties, sensory quality, and oxidative stability of myofibrillar protein (MP) in pork patties during five freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles. It was observed that repeated F-T cycles resulted in a deterioration of pork patty quality; however, the incorporation of QP effectively mitigated these changes. Throughout the F-T cycles, the sensory quality of the QP-treated group consistently surpassed that of the control group. After five F-T cycles, the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) content in the control group was measured at 0.423 mg/kg, whereas it significantly decreased to 0.347 mg/kg in the QP-treated group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, QP inclusion led to a decrease in pH and an increase in water-holding capacity (WHC) within pork patties. Following five F-T cycles, Ca2+-ATPase activity exhibited a significant increase of 11.10% in the QP-treated group compared to controls (p < 0.05). Additionally, supplementation with QP resulted in elevated total sulfhydryl content and reduced carbonyl content, Schiff base content, and dityrosine content within myofibrillar proteins (MPs), indicating its inhibitory effect on MP oxidation. In particular, after five F-T cycles, total sulfhydryl content reached 58.66 nmol/mL for the QP-treated group significantly higher than that observed for controls at 43.65 nmol/mL (p < 0.05). While carbonyl content increased from 2.37 nmol/mL to 4.63 nmol/mL between the first and fifth F-T cycle for controls; it only rose from 2.15 nmol/mL to 3.47 nmol/mL in the QP-treated group. The endogenous fluorescence levels were significantly higher (p < 0.05) in the QP-treated group compared to controls. In conclusion, the addition of QP enhanced the quality of pork patties and effectively inhibited the oxidative denaturation of MP during F-T cycles.

Abstract
This investigation aimed to assess the effects of whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) on the oxidative stability of protein and the ability of Scomberomorus niphoniu surimi balls to retain water after repeated freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles. Ten percent natural whey peptides (NWP), 5% WPH, 10% WPH, 15% WPH, 0.02% butyl hydroxyl anisole (BHA), and a control group that did not receive any treatment were the six groups that were employed in the experiment. The cooking loss, water retention, total sulfhydryl content, and carbonyl content of each group were all measured. Notably, it was found that the surimi balls' capacity to hold onto water and fend off oxidation was enhanced in a dose-dependent manner by the addition of WPH. Furthermore, the results showed that the 15% WPH added to the surimi balls effectively decreased protein oxidation in the F-T cycles and ameliorated the texture deterioration of surimi balls induced by repeated F-T, laying a theoretical foundation for the industrial application of WPH in surimi products.

Abstract
This study investigated the cryoprotective mechanism of ultrafiltration membrane-separated fractions (>10 kDa, UF-1; 3-10 kDa, UF-2; and <3 kDa, UF-3) derived from silver carp hydrolysates on frozen surimi. The surimi gel incorporating UF-3 exhibited a compact, continuous structure with uniform pores, even after undergoing six freeze-thaw (F-T) cycle, with the minimal reduction in entrapped water (from 95.1 % to 91.1 %) and least increase in free water (from 4.5 % to 6.6 %) as revealed by SEM and LF-NMR analysis. Through molecular docking analysis, three major peptides in UF-3 were identified to form robust interactions with the myosin head pocket, facilitated by hydrogen bonds, electrostatic forces, and hydrophobic interactions. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated that the three peptides effectively prevented myosin from unfolding and aggregating by tightly binding to basic amino acids (Arg, Lys) and hydrophobic amino acids (Phe, Leu, Ile, Met, and Val) residues in the myosin head pocket, primarily governed by electrostatic energies (-156.95, -321.38, and -267.53 kcal/mol, respectively) and van der Waals energies (-395.05, -347.46, and -319.16 kcal/mol, respectively). Notably, the key action site was identified as Lys599 on myosin. The hydrophilic and hydrophobic hotspot residues of the peptides worked synergistically to stabilize the myosin structure in frozen surimi.

Abstract
In this work, the effects of quinoa protein Pickering emulsion (QPPE) on protein oxidation, structure and gastrointestinal digestion property of myofibrillar protein gels (MPGs) after freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles are revealed. SDS-PAGE results indicated that 5.0 %-10.0 % QPPE addition slowed down the protein degradation. Meanwhile, 5.0 %-7.5 % QPPE maintained the stability of the protein secondary and tertiary structure of MPGs after F-T cycles. The sulfhydryl group, disulfide bond and dityrosine content increased with QPPE supplementation. The conformations of disulfide bond changed from g-g-t and t-g-t to g-g-g after F-T cycles, and 5.0 %-7.5 % QPPE stabilized the changes of t-g-t conformation. Furthermore, the increase of dityrosine content after F-T cycles was significantly reduced with 7.5 % QPPE addition, indicating its effect to slow down protein oxidation of MPGs. In addition, MPGs with 5.0 % and 7.5 % QPPE showed noticeably higher zeta potential values than other groups, indicating the enhanced electrostatic repulsion and weakened aggregation caused by F-T damage. This work showed that 7.5 % QPPE improved the F-T stability of MPGs and reduced the protein denaturation and oxidation caused by F-T treatments, exerting no side effect on the digestion property of MPGs. QPPE can be used as a green and effective antifreeze in meat industry.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of ultrasound-assisted water thawing (UWT) at different power levels (0, 100, 150, 200, and 250 W) on the thawing rate and gel properties of frozen tofu made using three different salt coagulants (CaCl2, CaSO4, and MgCl2). Tofu produced with CaCl2 and CaSO4 elicited gel structures with dense and homogeneous networks, while that with MgCl2 had rough pores and irregular networks. UWT treatment significantly decreased thawing time by 30.9-53.5% compared to the control. Water holding capacity and scanning electron microscopy analyses demonstrated that UWT-100, UWT-150, and UWT-200 should be used to increase the amount of fixed water for CaCl2, CaSO4, and MgCl2. These findings suggest that appropriate ultrasonic treatment could improve the water retention capacity of the tofu network and make the gel network structure more compact. Additionally, protein structural analysis showed a decrease in the exposure of hydrophobic groups and reduced protein denaturation when tofu prepared with all the coagulants were thawed with UWT energies of 100-200 W ultrasonication. These findings offer theoretical support for improving the frozen tofu thawing process while ensuring optimal final product quality.

Abstract
Myofibrillar protein (MP) endows muscle foods with texture and important functional properties, such as water-holding capacity (WHC) and emulsifying and gel-forming abilities. However, thawing deteriorates the physicochemical and structural properties of MPs, significantly affecting the WHC, texture, flavor, and nutritional value of muscle foods. Thawing-induced physicochemical and structural changes in MPs need further investigation and consideration in the scientific development of muscle foods. In this study, we reviewed the literature for the thawing effects on the physicochemical and structural characters of MPs to identify potential associations between MPs and the quality of muscle-based foods. Physicochemical and structural changes of MPs in muscle foods occur because of physical changes during thawing and microenvironmental changes, including heat transfer and phase transformation, moisture activation and migration, microbial activation, and alterations in pH and ionic strength. These changes are not only essential inducements for changes in spatial conformation, surface hydrophobicity, solubility, Ca2+ -ATPase activity, intermolecular interaction, gel properties, and emulsifying properties of MPs but also factors causing MP oxidation, characterized by thiols, carbonyl compounds, free amino groups, dityrosine content, cross-linking, and MP aggregates. Additionally, the WHC, texture, flavor, and nutritional value of muscle foods are closely related to MPs. This review encourages additional work to explore the potential of tempering techniques, as well as the synergistic effects of traditional and innovative thawing technologies, in reducing the oxidation and denaturation of MPs and maintaining the quality of muscle foods.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to elucidate the influence of oxidative modifications of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) on their surface properties. Oxidative modifications (deamination, formation of disulfide bonds and Schiff bases), particle size, net surface charge, and binding ability of volatiles (2-enthylfuran, 1-octen-3-ol, hexanal, and octanal) of oxidized MPs was measured. Molecular docking of volatiles with actomyosin was performed using Qvina-W program and the specific oxidative modifications (monoxidation and deamination) of MPs were determined using LC-MS/MS. Results showed that oxidation of Cys (forming sulfinic, sulfonic, sulfenic acid, and disulfide bonds), monoxidation of Ala, Lys, Glu, and Asn, and deamination of Lys changed the surface properties of oxidized MPs including enhanced surface hydrophobicity and decreased affinity to volatile compounds and water. Overall, this study gives evidence of how protein oxidation affects the properties of MPs and therefore deteriorates fish meat quality.

Abstract
In this work, the effects of different QPE addition on the freeze-thaw (F-T) stability of fish myofibrillar protein (MP) gels were revealed. During freezing process, QPE decreased the freezing point of MP gels and shortened the time to pass through the maximum-ice-crystal-formation zone. The occurrence of thermal hysteresis effect led to the formation of small ice crystals and alleviated the damage to MP gel network. The incorporation of 7.5% QPE also reduced the free water amount to 19.23% and improved the water holding capacity of MP gels. Furthermore, the incorporation of QPE decreased the carbonyl content of MP gels after F-T cycles and delayed the protein oxidation. Meanwhile, QPE addition maintained the stability of the tertiary structure of MP gels via stabilizing the microenvironment of tyrosine and tryptophan. Overall, QPE shows the potential as a new cryoprotectant to improve the F-T stability of MP gel products.

Abstract
To study the effects of freezing and thawing times and freezing temperatures on the water state and microstructure of tilapia fillets, experiments on tilapia fillets were carried out at -4 and -18°C with one to four freezing and thawing cycles (FTCs). Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging were used to observe the water state after different treatments, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and frozen sections were used to observe the microstructure changes. Fractal dimension (FD) was used to quantitatively characterize the microstructure of the fish tissue, and the correlation between FD and fish fillet quality parameters was studied by principal component analysis (PCA). The findings showed that with the increase of FTCs, the thawing loss increased, and the water holding capacity (WHC) fell. FTCs cause a decrease in immobilized water and an increase in free water in the fillet. This indicates the migration of immobilized water to free water. SEM and frozen slice images showed that the growth of ice crystals led to the destruction of myogenic fibers. A decrease in freezing temperature inhibited ice crystal growth. The FD value dropped in accordance with an increase in FTCs. PCA demonstrated that the WHC, NMR data, and FD value had a strong correlation with the quality changes in the tilapia fillets. Therefore, FD and water state can reflect the quality characteristics of tilapia fillets. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The water migration in tilapia fillets is detected with LF-NMR, and the microscopic image may be quantified using the FD value. Both approaches can offer fresh perspectives on how to assess the quality of tilapia fillets and reflect changes in their quality.

Abstract
Chitosan ice coating's properties and its inhibitory effect on the quality deterioration of quick-frozen fish balls during repeated freeze-thaw cycles were investigated. When the chitosan (CH) coating concentration increased, the viscosity and ice coating rate increased, while water vapor permeability (WVP), water solubility, and transmittance decreased, and 1.5% CH was regarded as the excellent coating to apply to freeze-thaw quick-frozen fish balls. As the freeze-thaw cycles increased, the frost production, total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N) values, and free water content of all of the samples increased significantly (p < 0.05), and the whiteness values, textural properties, and water-holding capacity (WHC) decreased. Freeze-thaw cycles expanded the aperture between the muscle fibers and the occurrence of crystallization and recrystallization between cells increased, damaging the original intact tissue structure, which were confirmed by SEM and optical microscopy. Compared with the untreated ones, the frost production, free water, and TVB-N of the samples with 1.5% CH decreased during 1, 3, 5, and 7 cycles, and were reduced by 23.80%, 32.21%, 30.33%, and 52.10% by the 7th cycle. The WHC and texture properties showed an increasing trend during the freeze-thaw cycles. Therefore, the chitosan ice coating effectively inhibited the quality deterioration by reducing water loss, the occurrence of ice crystallization and recrystallization, and the pores of the samples.

Abstract
The effects of various sous-vide (SV) cooking conditions (50-60℃, 30-60 min) on physicochemical properties related to the texture characteristics, protein structure/degradation, and sensory acceptability of tilapia fillet (Oreochromis niloticus) were investigated. With an increasing temperature and processing time of SV cooking, protein degradation (of both myofibrils and connective tissue) was more pronounced, as evaluated by the decrease in water- and salt-soluble proteins, total collagen, as well as the changes in the ratio of secondary protein structures (α-helix, β-sheet, β-turn, etc.), which were determined by synchrotron-FTIR (SR-FTIR). These degradations were associated with the improvement of meat tenderness, as estimated by shear force and texture profile analyzer (TPA) results. Among all SV conditions, using 60 ℃ for 45 min seems to be the optimal condition for tilapia meat, since it delivered the best results for texture characteristics and acceptability (p < 0.05). Moreover, principal component analysis (PCA) results clearly demonstrated that the highest texture-liking score of this condition was well associated with the intensity of β-sheets, which seem to be the crucial component that affected the texture of SV-cooked tilapia more so than other parameters. The findings demonstrated the potential of SR-FTIR to decipher the biomolecular structure, particularly the secondary protein structure, of SV-cooked tilapia. This technique provided essential information for a better understanding of the changes in biomolecules related to the textural characteristics of this product.

Abstract
Freeze denaturation of protein caused by ice crystals is the main motivation for the quality deterioration of surimi during circulation and storage. This investigation aimed to cryoprotect surimi by adding antifreeze peptides from Takifugu obscurus skin (TsAFP) which can inhibit ice recrystallization, and to elucidate regulating mechanism. The comprehensive results showed that 4% TsAFP, half dosage of commercial cryoprotectant, had good cryoprotection on surimi by reducing the moisture variation and maintaining protein solubility of surimi at macro level, as well as inhibiting the degeneration and structure changes of myofibrillar proteins at micro level. Meanwhile, TsAFP could directly bind to the structural cavity of myosin, inhibit protein freezing-induced oxidation, maintain the spatial structure of myosin and water retention ability to preserve the surimi quality. This study helped better comprehend the protective mechanisms of antifreeze peptides in frozen surimi and was expected to provide a promising cryoprotectant for low-sweetness and low-calorie surimi.

Abstract
To improve the quality of cooked and frozen crayfish after repeated freeze-thaw cycles, the effects of alginate oligosaccharide (1 %, w/v) with ultrasound-assisted (40 W, 3 min) soaking (AUS) on the physicochemical properties were investigated. The AUS samples improved water-holding capacity with 19.47 % higher than the untreated samples. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance confirmed that mobile water (T22) in the samples after 5 times of freeze-thaw cycles was reduced by 13.02 % and 29.34 % with AUS and without treatment, correspondingly; and with AUS and without treatment, average size of the ice crystals was around 90.26 μm2 and 113.73 μm2, and average diameter of the ice crystals was 5.83 μm and 8.14 μm, respectively; furthermore, it enhanced the solubility and zeta potential, lowered the surface hydrophobicity, reduced the particle size, and maintained the secondary and tertiary structures of myofibrillar protein (MP) after repeated freeze-thawing. Gel electrophoresis revealed that the AUS treatment mitigated the denaturation of MPs. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the AUS treatment preserved the structure of the tissue. These findings demonstrated that the AUS treatment could enhance the water retention and physicochemical properties of protein within aquatic meat products during temperature fluctuations..

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effect of trehalose in concert with NaCl on the flesh of snakehead fish that had undergone freeze-thaw cycles. Four groups of treatments were compared in this study, including distilled water, 3% NaCl, antifreeze (4% wt/vol) with 3% NaCl, and 4% trehalose (wt/vol) with 3% (wt/vol) NaCl. The results showed that the addition of 4% trehalose (wt/vol) with 3% (wt/vol) NaCl reduced the cracks between muscle fibers and the pores on muscle fiber bundles caused by freeze-thaw cycles during frozen storage of snakehead fish, thus reducing mechanical damage to the fish tissue structure. Moreover, the treatment was able to reduce the thawing loss of snakehead fillets, reduce cooking loss, and help maintain the color of the fish. Further, 4% trehalose (wt/vol) + 3% (wt/vol) NaCl (T) could slow down the reduction of hardness, elasticity, and chewiness of fish fillets during frozen storage. This study provides a theoretical basis for reducing the freeze-thaw cycle on the quality changes of snakehead fish during transportation and marketing.

Abstract
Considering the hazards of high salt intake and the current status of research on low-sodium meat products, this study was to analyze the effect of ultrasound combined with glycerol-mediated low-sodium salt curing on the quality of pork tenderloin by analyzing the salt content, water activity (aw), cooking loss, and texture. The results of scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis, Raman spectroscopy, ultraviolet fluorescence, and surface hydrophobicity were proposed to reveal the mechanism of the effect of combined ultrasound and glycerol-mediated low sodium salt curing on the quality characteristics of pork tenderloin. The results showed that the co-mediated curing could reduce salt content, aw, and cooking loss (p < 0.05), improve texture and enhance product quality. Compared with the control group, the co-mediated curing increased the solubility of the myofibrillar protein, improved the surface hydrophobicity of the protein, increased the content of reactive sulfhydryl groups (p < 0.05), and changed the protein structure. The SEM results showed that the products treated using a co-mediated curing process had a more detailed and uniform pore distribution. These findings provide new insights into the quality of ultrasonic-treated and glycerol-mediated low-salt cured meat products.

Abstract
Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have attracted tremendous attention due to their superparamagnetic properties, large specific surface area, high biocompatibility, non-toxicity, large-scale production, and recyclability. More importantly, numerous hydroxyl groups (-OH) on the surface of Fe3O4 MNPs can provide coupling sites for various modifiers, forming versatile nanocomposites for applications in the energy, biomedicine, and environmental fields. With the development of science and technology, the potential of nanotechnology in the food industry has also gradually become prominent. However, the application of composite Fe3O4 MNPs in the food industry has not been systematically summarized. Herein, this article reviews composite Fe3O4 MNPs, including their properties, modifications, and physical functions, as well as their applications in the entire food industry from production to processing, storage, and detection. This review lays a solid foundation for promoting food innovation and improving food quality and safety.

Abstract
The inhibitory effect of guava leaf polyphenols (GLP) on advanced glycation end products (AGEs) of frozen chicken meatballs (−18 °C) and its possible inhibitory mechanism was investigated. Compared with control samples after freezing for 6 months, acidic value (AV), lipid peroxides, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), A294, A420, glyoxal (GO), Nε-carboxymethyl-lysine (CML), pentosidine, and fluorescent AGEs of chicken meatballs with GLP decreased by 11.1%, 22.3%, 19.5%, 4.30%, 8.66%, 8.27%, 4.80%, 20.5%, and 7.68%, respectively; while free sulfhydryl groups the content increased by 4.90%. Meanwhile, there was no significant difference between meatballs with GLP and TP in AV, A294, GO, and CML (p > 0.05). Correlation analysis indicated that GO, CML, pentosidine, and fluorescent AGEs positively correlated with AV, TBARS, A294, and A420, while GO, CML, pentosidine, and fluorescent AGEs negatively correlated with free sulfhydryl groups. These results manifested GLP could inhibit AGEs formation by inhibiting lipid oxidation, protein oxidation, and Maillard reaction. The possible inhibitory mechanism of GLP on the AGEs included scavenging free radicals, capturing dicarbonyl compounds, forming polyphenol−protein compounds, and reducing the formation of glucose. Therefore, the work demonstrated that the addition of plant polyphenols may be a promising method to inhibit AGEs formation in food.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2022; 102:4313-4321. [PMID: 35043406 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.11783] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2021] [Revised: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The magnetic nanoparticles plus microwave thawing (MNPMT), a new rewarming technology entitled 'nanowarming', can serve as an effective method to achieve rapid and uniform thawing, thus reducing drip loss. The purpose of this study was to decipher the drip loss inhibitory mechanism of MNPMT in jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) from the perspectives of protein structure and ice crystal recrystallization. A number of different techniques such as dynamic rheology, Raman spectra, intrinsic fluorescence measurement, and ultraviolet (UV) absorption spectra were conducted to analyze myofibrillar protein conformation and stability of jumbo squid. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI) were used to observe the growth of ice crystals. The interaction between magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and ice crystals was studied by using molecular dynamic (MD) simulation. RESULTS MNPMT exhibited the highest storage modulus (G') value at 90 °C, suggesting the protein conformation was more stable. The increase in α-helices, fluorescence intensity and characteristic absorption peak of MNPMT illustrated that MNPMT can effectively maintain the secondary and tertiary structure of the protein. Compared with cold storage thawing (CST) and microwave thawing (MT), the MFI value of MNPMT was significantly decreased (P < 0.01). The result of MD simulation showed that MNPs displayed a tendency to gradually approach the surface of ice crystals, and induced a certain degree of damage to the ice crystal surface, thereby markedly inhibiting ice crystal recrystallization. CONCLUSION MNPMT can reduce the drip loss by keeping the protein conformation stable and inhibiting the recrystallization of ice crystals during the thawing process. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
To compare the differences between direct protein oxidation (PO) and lipid-derived PO, the myofibrillar protein (MP) of obscure pufferfish was oxidatively modified by the hydroxyl radical oxidizing system (HOS) and the lipid-oxidizing system (LOS). The degree of oxidation, structural characteristics, and oxidation sites in MP were assessed. The results showed there was no significant thiol loss in LOS, compared with a 77.64% loss observed in case of the HOS. The secondary structure of MP was more vulnerable to HOS, but the tertiary structure was more susceptible to LOS. The cross-linking was largely attributed to the reversible disulfide links in HOS and the irreversible covalent linkages in LOS. Six amino acids and 10 specific oxidant products were identified in HOS. Only three amino acids and three specific oxidant products were identified in LOS. These findings may help deepen the understanding regarding the mechanism underlying PO in protein- and lipid-rich food materials.

Abstract
The effects of quinoa protein Pickering emulsion (QPE) on the gel properties, protein structure and intermolecular interactions of myofibrillar protein (MP) gels were studied. Compared with the MP gels without QPE, the MP gels with 5.0%-7.5% added QPE showed significant increasing trends in storage modulus (G'), whiteness, gel strength and water holding capacity (WHC). The content of disulfide bonds in the gel increased with the addition of QPE and the disulfide bond conformation changed from gauche-gauche-gauche to gauche-gauche-trans. Moreover, the increase of hydrogen bonds after QPE addition confirmed the transformation from α-helix to β-sheet, as β-sheet structure was stabilized by interchain hydrogen bonds. The added QPE also enhanced the hydrophobic interaction and electrostatic interaction of MP gels. To conclude, the addition of 5.0%-7.5% QPE improved the intermolecular interactions and the structure stability of MP gels, and enhanced the gelation and WHC of MP gels.

Abstract
US&HVEF technology revealed an inactivation effect on S. putrefaciens. US&HVEF technology minimized the thawing damage to frozen fish. US&HVEF thawing achieved better quality maintenance of frozen aquatic products.
Frozen products are more susceptible to microbial spoilage during thawing. Therefore, the development of a thawing technology with effective bacteriostasis is still urgent in food science. In this study, red sea bream was used as the research object, S. putrefaciens was incubated on the surface of fish fillets, and ultrasound plus high voltage electric field (US&HVEF) was performed to investigate the antibacterial activity. On this basis, the effect of US&HVEF thawing on the quality characteristics of fillets was further studied. The results indicated that US&HVEF showed a better antibacterial performance toward S. putrefaciens, with the lethality of 96.73%. Furthermore, US&HVEF could minimize thawing loss, preserve fillets texture, stabilize the secondary and tertiary conformation of myofibrillar protein (MFP), and inhibit the MFP aggregation and oxidation. Accordingly, this study shows that food safety also involves spoilage bacteria prevention except for quality and proves that US&HVEF technology has great potential in food thawing.

Abstract
The quality characteristics of fish products are a key factor influencing consumer acceptance and preference. This study was aimed to investigate the relationship among quality characteristics, protein structural changes and water migration of mandarin fish with different freshness during heating process. The results showed that the protein structure tended to unfold and more loosen in low freshness fish muscle (4-5 d storage) during heating, leading to an obvious decrease in hydrogen bonds, promoting a reduction of water holding capacity in fish muscle, thus resulting in an increase of T23 and a decrease of AW, which in turn affected the hardness, stress, and springiness of fish muscle. The protein conformation and water migration could explain the textural differences after heating of different freshness mandarin fish.

Abstract
The awareness of the correlation between administered diet, fish health and products’ quality has led to the increase in the research for innovative and functional feed ingredients. Herein, a plant-derived product rich in bioactive compounds, such as honeybee pollen (HBP), was included as raw (HBP) and as Supercritical Fluid Extracted (SFE) pollen (HBP_SFE) in the diet for gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). The experiment was carried out on 90 fish with an average body weight of 294.7 ± 12.8 g, divided into five groups, according to the administration of five diets for 30 days: control diet (CTR); two diets containing HBP at 5% (P5) and at 10% (P10) level of inclusion; two diets containing HBP_SFE, at 0.5% (E0.5) and at 1% (E1) level of inclusion. Their effects were evaluated on 60 specimens (336.2 ± 11.4 g average final body weight) considering the fish growth, the expression of some hepatic genes involved in the inflammatory response (il-1β, il-6 and il-8) through quantitative real-time PCR, and physico-chemical characterization (namely color, texture, water holding capacity, fatty acid profile and lipid peroxidation) of the fish fillets monitored at the beginning (day 0) and after 110 days of storage at −20 °C. The results obtained showed that the treatment with diet E1 determined the up-regulation of il-1β, il-6, and il-8 (p < 0.05); however, this supplementation did not significantly contribute to limiting the oxidative stress. Nevertheless, no detrimental effect on color and the other physical characteristics was observed. These results suggest that a low level of HBP_SFE could be potentially utilized in aquaculture as an immunostimulant more than an antioxidant, but further investigation is necessary.

Abstract
Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) or thermal hysteresis (TH) proteins are biomolecular gifts of nature to sustain life in extremely cold environments. This family of peptides, glycopeptides and proteins produced by diverse organisms including bacteria, yeast, insects and fish act by non-colligatively depressing the freezing temperature of the water below its melting point in a process termed thermal hysteresis which is then responsible for ice crystal equilibrium and inhibition of ice recrystallisation; the major cause of cell dehydration, membrane rupture and subsequent cryodamage. Scientists on the other hand have been exploring various substances as cryoprotectants. Some of the cryoprotectants in use include trehalose, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG), sucrose, propylene glycol (PG) and glycerol but their extensive application is limited mostly by toxicity, thus fueling the quest for better cryoprotectants. Hence, extracting or synthesizing antifreeze protein and testing their cryoprotective activity has become a popular topic among researchers. Research concerning AFPs encompasses lots of effort ranging from understanding their sources and mechanism of action, extraction and purification/synthesis to structural elucidation with the aim of achieving better outcomes in cryopreservation. This review explores the potential clinical application of AFPs in the cryopreservation of different cells, tissues and organs. Here, we discuss novel approaches, identify research gaps and propose future research directions in the application of AFPs based on recent studies with the aim of achieving successful clinical and commercial use of AFPs in the future.

The quality properties of frozen large yellow croaker fillets during temperature fluctuation cycles: improvement by cellobiose and carboxylated cellulose nanofibers. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 194:499-509. [PMID: 34822836 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.11.093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Revised: 11/08/2021] [Accepted: 11/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Frozen aquatic products undergo unavoidable quality changes owing to temperature fluctuations during frozen storage and distribution. This study investigated the effects of 1% cellobiose (CB), and 0.5 and 1% carboxylated cellulose nanofibers (CNF) on ice crystal growth and recrystallization of frozen large yellow croaker fillets exposed to temperature fluctuations. Denser and more uniformly distributed ice crystals were observed in the CB- and CNF-treated samples than in the water-treated samples. Furthermore, the addition of CB and CNF suppressed the conversion of bound water to frozen water in the samples during temperature fluctuation cycles, played a positive role in fixing the ionic and hydrogen bonds that stabilize the protein structure, limited the conformational transition from α-helix to β-sheet, and improved protein thermal stability. Based on turbidity, zeta potential, and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) analyses, the presence of CB and CNF restricted the protein aggregation. Compared with CB, CNF molecules with abundant carboxyl functional groups and longer morphology exhibited better cryoprotective effects. Moreover, the fillets were more improved protected from mechanical damage induced by large ice crystals at a higher CNF concentration. This study reveals the potential of CB and CNF as novel cryoprotectants.

Chu Y, Tan M, Bian C, Xie J. Effect of ultrasonic thawing on the physicochemical properties, freshness, and protein-related properties of frozen large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea). J Food Sci 2021; 87:52-67. [PMID: 34897680 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.15983] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2021] [Revised: 09/28/2021] [Accepted: 10/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Ultrasonic treatment (UT) was used to thaw large yellow croaker in this study, and the effect of various ultrasonic power levels on the quality of large yellow croaker was evaluated after thawing. The effects of ultrasonic on water holding capacity (WHC), moisture distribution, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARs), total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), ATP degradation (related to K value), surface color change, free amino acid (FAA) content, total sulfhydryl group (SH) content, Fourier transform infrared absorption spectra (FT-IR), fluorescence emission spectra, and microscopic observations of large yellow croaker myofibrillar proteins were investigated. The thawing times of the control sample, 200UT, 240UT, 280UT, and 320UT samples were 1750, 1190, 810, 580, and 570 s, respectively, which indicated that ultrasonic radiation could improve thawing efficiency. Additionally, ultrasonic thawing maintained better freshness and color and inhibited lipid oxidation. Compared with fresh samples, the TVB-N of large yellow croaker thawed by ultrasonication increased by 12.68%, and the K value increased by 0.9%. The 240UT sample had tightly arranged myofibrils and fewer changes in the structures of myogenic fibrillar proteins than the fresh samples, and the SH content of 240UT was decreased by 8.17%. Use of excessive ultrasonic power (320 W) damaged the protein microstructure and the microstructure of large yellow croaker. In conclusion, sample 240UT maintained the quality of large yellow croaker better with minimal damage, which is recommended for rapid thawing. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Ultrasonic waves improve the thawing efficiency of large yellow croaker and maintain the freshness and color of the fish. According to results, sample 240UT exhibited slight changes in the structure of the myofibril protein, but excessive ultrasonic power destroyed the microstructure and protein structure. Appropriate ultrasonic treatment to the thawing of fish has good prospects.
