Interaction of pepper numbing substances with myofibrillar proteins and numbness perception under thermal conditions: A structural mechanism analysis. Food Chem 2024; 449:139203. [PMID: 38599105 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139203] [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: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024]
Abstract
This study examined the interaction between myofibrillar proteins (MPs) and the numbing substance hydroxy-α-sanshool (α-SOH) in a thermal environment, and provided an explanation of the numbness perception mechanism through muti-spectroscopic and molecular dynamics simulation methodology. Results showed that addition of α-SOH could reduce the particle size and molecular weight of MPs, accompanied by changes in the tertiary and secondary structure, causing the α-helix of MPs transitioned to β-sheet and β-turn due to the reorganization of hydrogen bonds. After a moderate heating (60 or 70 °C), MPs could form the stable complexes with α-SOH that were associated with attachment sites and protein wrapping. The thermal process might convert a portion of α-SOH' into hydroxy-β-sanshool' (β-SOH'). When docking with the sensory receptor TRPV1, the RMSD, RMSF and binding free energy all showed that β-SOH' demonstrated a low affinity, thereby reducing the numbing perception. These findings can provide a theoretical foundation for the advanced processing of numbing meat products.

Mitigation of mechanical damage and protein deterioration in giant river prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) by multi-frequency ultrasound-assisted immersion freezing. Food Chem 2024; 458:140324. [PMID: 38970954 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140324] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 06/20/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/08/2024]
Abstract
In order to investigate the effects of multi-frequency ultrasound-assisted immersion freezing (MUIF) on the meat quality of Macrobrachium rosenbergii, tail meat was subjected to different MUIF treatments respectively, namely 20 + 40 kHz (MUIF-20 + 40), 20 + 60 kHz (MUIF-20 + 60), 40 + 60 kHz (MUIF-40 + 60) and 20 + 40 + 60 kHz (MUIF-20 + 40 + 60), and the immersion freezing (IF) as control. Results showed that average diameter of ice crystals was 28 μm in IF, and that was only 8 μm in MUIF-20 + 40 + 60. When compared to IF, MUIF alleviated oxidative deterioration of lipids and proteins, but only at higher ultrasound frequency (MUIF-40 + 60; MUIF-20 + 40 + 60). Carbonyl content of MUIF-20 + 40 + 60 was only 40% of that in IF. Similarly, protein denaturation was inhibited in MUIF (except for MUIF-20 + 40). Transmission electron microscopy showed greater distortion of the ultrastructural components in IF, MUIF-40 + 60, and MUIF-20 + 40 + 60, suggested by bended Z-line. In conclusion, MUIF can be an effective strategy to mitigate mechanical damage and protein deterioration in the meat of Macrobrachium rosenbergii.

Abstract
The hardness properties of unwashed surimi gel are considered as the qualities of gelation defect. This research investigated the effect of ultrasound-assisted first-stage thermal treatment (UATT) on the physicochemical properties of unwashed Silver Carp surimi gel, and the enhancement mechanism. UATT could reduce protein particle size, which significantly reduced from 142.22 μm to 106.70 μm after 30 min of UATT compared with the nature protein. This phenomenon can promote the protein crosslinking, resulting in the hardness of surimi gel increased by 15.08 %. Partially unfolded structure of myofibrillar protein and exposures of tryptophan to water, lead to the increase in the zeta potential absolute value, driven by UATT. The reduced SH group level and the conformational conversion of proteins from random coiling to α-helix and β-sheet, which was in support of intermolecular interaction and gel network construction. The results are valuable for processing protein gels and other food products.

Abstract
This study was aim to investigate the influencing mechanism of ultrasonic treatment on the interaction between volatile aldehydes and myosin. The results showed that when the mass concentration ratio of myosin to heptanal/hexanal was 1:0.3, ultrasonic treatment could enhance the binding capacity of myosin to heptanal/hexanal, especially the binding of myosin to hexanal. The entropy and enthalpy values of their interaction were negative, indicating that the interaction was mainly driven by hydrogen bond and van der Waals force. After ultrasonic treatment, the fluorescence wavelength of myosin-heptanal/hexanal complex was redshifted, the α-helix content was increased, while its roughness values, particle size and the polydispersity index were decreased. These demonstrated that ultrasonic treatment was conducive to myosin binding to heptanal/hexanal, thereby restraining the release of volatile flavor compounds from myosin, which could provide new insights for the regulation of volatile flavor compounds.

Abstract
The effects of ultrasound (500 W) on the interaction of porcine myofibrillar protein (MP) with furan flavor compounds at different salt concentrations (0.6 %, 1.2 % and 2.4 %) were investigated. With the increase of salt concentration, the particle size of MP decreased, and the surface hydrophobicity and active sulfhydryl content increased due to the unfolding and depolymerization of MP. At the same time, ultrasound promoted the exposure of hydrophobic binding sites and hydrogen bonding sites of MP in different salt concentration systems, thus improving the binding ability of MP with furan compounds by 2 % to 22 %, among which MP had the strongest binding capacity of 2-pentylfuran. In conclusion, ultrasound could effectively promote the unfolding of the secondary structure of MP, which was beneficial to the combination of MP and furan flavor compounds under different salt concentrations.

Stabilizing effect of silver carp myofibrillar protein modified by high intensity ultrasound on high internal phase emulsions: Protein denaturation, interfacial adsorption and reconfiguration.

Abstract
This study evaluated the impact of high intensity ultrasound (HIU) on myofibrillar proteins (MP) from silver carp, and investigated the stabilizing effect of HIU-treated MP (UMP) on high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs). Ultrasonic cavitation induced protein denaturation by decreasing size and unfolding conformation, to expose more hydrophobic groups, particularly UMP at 390 W, showing the smallest particle size (181.71 nm) and most uniform distribution. These structural changes caused that UMP under 390 W exhibited the highest surface hydrophobicity, solubility (92.72 %) and emulsibility (115.98 m2/g and 70.4 min), all of which contributed to fabricating stable HIPEs with oil volume fraction up to 0.8. UMP-based HIPEs possessed tightly packed gel network and self-supporting appearance due to the adsorption of numerous proteins at the oil-water interface and the reduction of interfacial tension by protein reconfiguration. The larger interface coverage reinforced cross-linking between interfacial proteins, thus increasing the viscoelasticity and recoverability of HIPEs, also the resistance to centrifugal force, high temperature (90 °C, 30 min) and freeze-thaw cycles. These findings furnished insightful perspectives for MP deep processing through HIU, expanding the high-value application of UMP-based HIPEs in fat replacer, nutritional delivery system with high encapsulation content and novel 3D printing ink.

Abstract
This work employed the model protein β-lactoglobulin (BLG) to investigate the contribution of microstructural changes to regulating the interaction patterns between protein and flavor compounds through employing computer simulation and multi-spectroscopic techniques. The formation of molten globule (MG) state-like protein during the conformational evolution of BLG, in response to ultrasonic (UC) and heat (HT) treatments, was revealed through multi-spectroscopic characterization. Differential MG structures were distinguished by variations in surface hydrophobicity and the microenvironment of tryptophan residues. Fluorescence quenching measurements indicated that the formation of MG enhanced the binding affinity of heptanal to protein. LC-MS/MS and NMR revealed the covalent bonding between heptanal and BLG formed by Michael addition and Schiff-base reactions, and MG-like BLG exhibited fewer chemical shift residues. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation confirmed the synergistic involvement of hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds in shaping BLG-heptanal complexes thus promoting the stability of BLG structures. These findings indicated that the production of BLG-heptanal complexes was driven synergistically by non-covalent and covalent bonds, and their interaction processes were influenced by processes-induced formation of MG potentially tuning the release and retention behaviors of flavor compounds.

Abstract
The interactions between mucin and aroma compounds have been shown to affect aroma perception. This study aimed to investigate the binding behavior between mucin and bis(2-methyl-3-furyl) disulfide and reveal the interaction mechanism at different pH levels. Based on our results, the binding percentages between mucin and bis(2-methyl-3-furyl) disulfide ranged from 37.03 % to 71.87 % at different contents. The complexes formation between mucin and bis(2-methyl-3-furyl) disulfide was confirmed by turbidity, particle size, zeta-potential, and surface hydrophobicity analyses. According to the results of multispectral techniques and molecular dynamic simulation, mucin could interact with bis(2-methyl-3-furyl) disulfide by hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, and van der Waals force. Furthermore, the binding constants of mucin to bis(2-methyl-3-furyl) disulfide were 1.26 × 103, 1.14 × 103, and 9.13 × 103 L mol-1 at pH 5.0, 7.0, and 8.5, respectively. These findings contribute to the comprehensive knowledge on the interaction mechanism between bis(2-methyl-3-furyl) disulfide and mucin, providing insights for flavor modulation in meat products.

Synergistic Effects of High-Intensity Ultrasound Combined with L-Lysine for the Treatment of Porcine Myofibrillar Protein Regarding Solubility and Flavour Adsorption Capacity. Foods 2024; 13:629.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the synergistic effects of high-intensity ultrasound (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 min) in combination with L-lysine (15 mM) on improving the solubility and flavour adsorption capacity of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) in low-ion-strength media. The results revealed that the ultrasound treatment for 20 min or the addition of L-lysine (15 mM) significantly improved protein solubility (p < 0.05), with L-lysine (15 mM) showing a more pronounced effect (p < 0.05). The combination of ultrasound treatment and L-lysine further increased solubility, and the MPs treated with ultrasound at 20 min exhibited the best dispersion stability in water, which corresponded to the lowest turbidity, highest absolute zeta potential value, and thermal stability (p < 0.05). Based on the reactive and total sulfhydryl contents, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy analysis, the ultrasound treatment combined with L-lysine (15 mM) promoted the unfolding and depolymerization of MPs, resulting in a larger exposure of SH groups on the surface, aromatic amino acids in a polar environment, and a transition of protein conformation from α-helix to β-turn. Moreover, the combined treatment also increased the hydrophobic bonding sites, hydrogen-bonding sites, and electrostatic effects, thereby enhancing the adsorption capacity of MPs to bind kenone compounds. The findings from this study provide a theoretical basis for the production and flavour improvement of low-salt MP beverages and the utilisation of meat protein.

Abstract
This study aimed to examine how the addition of etheric compounds (EC) affects the characteristics of myofibrillar proteins (MP) and to understand underlying interaction mechanisms. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed that the EC-MP complex was formed through hydrogen bonding. The addition of EC resulted in an increase in the α-helix content and a decrease in the β-sheet content of MP, which would promote the protein unfolding. The unfolding of MP led to aggregation and formation of larger and non-uniform particles. As a result, the exposure of negative charge on the MP surface was enhanced, and zeta potential was decreased from -5.33 mV to -7.45 mV. Moreover, the EC-induced modification of MP conformation resulted in a less rigid three-dimensional network structure of MP gel and enhanced the discharge of aldehyde compounds (C > 6). Moreover, the rheological characteristics of MP were enhanced by the suppression of protein-protein interactions due to the MP unfolding. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed that anethole reduced the binding capacity of myosin to decanal by raising its binding energy from -22.22 kcal/mol to -19.38 kcal/mol. In the meantime, anethole competed for the amino acid residue (PHE165) where myosin connects to decanal. This caused the hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic contacts between the two molecules to dissolve, altering myosin's conformation and releasing decanal. The results might be useful in predicting and controlling the ability of proteins to release and hold onto flavors.

Unravelling the interaction between α-SOH and myofibrillar protein based on spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulation. Food Chem X 2023; 20:100986. [PMID: 38144868 PMCID: PMC10740131 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.100986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Revised: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
This work systematically investigated the dose-response interaction between hydroxy-α-sanshool (α-SOH) and pork myofibrillar proteins (MPs) via spectroscopy, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation methods. Results showed that MPs bound with low α-SOH can enhance the surface hydrophobicity and particle size of MPs, whereas high concentrations were exactly the opposite. The main interaction force in α-SOH/MPs complex changed from hydrophobic to hydrogen bonding with increased α-SOH. α-SOH causes tryptophan quenching and bring about a red shift at low concentration, as well as to promote α-helix conversion into β-sheet in MPs. Simultaneously, molecular docking and dynamics simulations verified that hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic forces were the main contributors to α-SOH/MPs complex, indicating that the binding of α-SOH with MPs proceeded spontaneously with high intensity, in which TYR286 contributed the most significant energy. Therefore, revealing the binding mechanism of α-SOH and MPs can contribute to the deep processing of numbing meat products.

Abstract
The concept of healthiness and sustainability has promoted the innovation and development of "clean-label" products. Herein, this study aims to explore the influence mechanism of "clean label" skin protein powder (FPP) on the gelation properties of myofibrillar proteins (MPs). Specifically, the addition of FPP (0.2-4.0%) can improve the water holding capability and texture properties of MP composite gels. When the FPP concentration is over 1.0%, the composite gels exhibit no significant water loss during centrifugation. Dynamic rheology and sodium-dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis results revealed that FPP can slow the aggregation and denaturation of myosin and promote the formation of disulfide bonds between myofibril proteins, thus forming a stable network structure. Structural observation revealed that FPP can fill into the MP gel and lead to the formation of compact gel structures. Besides, with the increase of FPP concentration, the chemical forces involved in structural stabilization change significantly. Specifically, hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bonding are the dominant forces at a lower FPP concentration (0.2 and 0.4%), while the ionic bond and disulfide bond are the dominant forces at a higher concentration. Overall, this work demonstrated that FPP can significantly improve the gel functionality of MP by altering the gel structure and strengthening the molecular forces.

Influence of Multi-Frequency Ultrasound Treatment on Conformational Characteristics of Beef Myofibrillar Proteins with Different Degrees of Doneness. Foods 2023; 12:2926. [PMID: 37569195 PMCID: PMC10417746 DOI: 10.3390/foods12152926] [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: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of multi-frequency sonication (20 kHz, 25 kHz, 28 kHz, 40 kHz, 50 kHz) on structural characteristics of beef myofibrillar proteins (MPs) with different degrees of doneness (Rare 52~55 °C, Medium Rare 55~60 °C, Medium 60~65 °C, Medium Well 65~69 °C, Well Down 70~80 °C, and Overcooked 90 °C). The results showed that surface hydrophobicity and sulfhydryl content increased with the increase in degree of doneness. At the same degree of doneness, the sulfhydryl group contents reached the maximum at a frequency of 28 kHz. In addition, the absolute value of ζ-potential was significantly decreased after ultrasonic treatment (p < 0.05). SDS gel electrophoresis showed that the bands of beef MPs were not significantly affected by various ultrasonic frequencies, but the bands became thinner when the degree of doneness reached overcooked. Fourier transform infrared spectrum showed that with the increase of ultrasonic frequency, α-helix content decreased, and random coil content significantly increased (p < 0.05). The results of atomic force microscopy indicated that the surface structure of beef MPs was damaged, and the roughness decreased by sonication, while the roughness significantly increased when the degree of doneness changed from medium to overripe (p < 0.05). In conclusion, multi-ultrasound combined with degree of doneness treatment alters the structural characteristics of beef MPs.

Abstract
Effects of ultrasound (UT) treatments on the structural, physicochemical, and functional properties of myofibrillar proteins (MPs), as well as their ability to bind to flavor compounds from spices, were investigated. The results demonstrated that UT treatment enhanced surface hydrophobicity, SH content, and absolute ζ-potential value of the MPs. Atomic force microscopy analysis displayed formation of MPs aggregates with small particle size in the UT-treated MPs samples. Meanwhile, UT treatment could improve the emulsifying properties and physical stability of MPs' emulsion. Additionally, the MPs gel network structure and stability significantly improved following UT treatment. Changes in the structural, physicochemical, and functional properties enhanced the ability of MPs to bind to flavor substances from spices depending on the duration of UT treatment. Furthermore, correlation analysis showed that the ability of myristicin, anethole, and estragole to bind to MPs was highly correlated with surface hydrophobicity, ζ-potential value, and α-helix content of MPs. The results of this study may help in understanding the relationship between the changes in MPs properties during the processing of meat products and their ability to bind to flavors from spices, thereby improving flavors retention and taste of processed meat products.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the influences of mono-ultrasound assisted thawing on the thawing efficiency, product quality and conformational characteristics of frozen goose meat. The thawing time, thawing loss, muscle quality, and microstructure of frozen goose meat were studied. The results displayed that ultrasonic-assisted thawing effectively reduced the thawing time by 45.37-57.58% compared with non-sonicated group, and significantly decreased the thawing loss. For the quality properties of goose meat tissue, ultrasound-assisted thawing with single-frequency of 50 kHz indicated a lower protein turbidity; meanwhile, hardness values were also significantly increased, and displayed a higher springiness, gumminess and chewiness of goose meat tissue. The microstructure analysis exhibited that the conformation of goose myofibrillar protein (MP) was modified following ultrasonic-assisted thawing, and became closer and more irregular. Therefore, ultrasound-assisted thawing treatments at 50 kHz mono-frequency (temperature 25℃) have a high potential application value in the thawing research of frozen goose meat, and lay a theoretical foundation for use in the meat process industries.

Effects of ultrasound treatment on the morphological characteristics, structures and emulsifying properties of genipin cross-linked myofibrillar protein. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 97:106467.

Abstract
Genipin is a natural crosslinker that improves the functional properties of proteins by modifying its structures. This study aimed to investigate the effects of sonication on the emulsifying properties of different genipin concentration-induced myofibrillar protein (MP) cross-linking. The structural characteristics, solubility, emulsifying properties, and rheological properties of genipin-induced MP crosslinking without sonication (Native), sonication before crosslinking (UMP), and sonication after crosslinking (MPU) treatments were determined, and the interaction between genipin and MP were estimated by molecular docking. The results demonstrated that hydrogen bond might be the main forces for genipin binding to the MP, and 0.5 μM/mg genipin was a desirable concentration for protein cross-linking to improve MP emulsion stability. Ultrasound treatment before and after crosslinking were better than Native treatment to improve the emulsifying stability index (ESI) of MP. Among the three treatment groups at the 0.5 μM/mg genipin treatment, the MPU treatment group showed the smallest size, most uniform protein particle distribution, and the highest ESI (59.89%). Additionally, the highest α-helix (41.96%) in the MPU + G5 group may be conducive to the formation of a stable and multilayer oil-water interface. Furthermore, the free groups, solubility, and protein exposure extent of the MPU groups were higher than those of UMP and Native groups. Therefore, this work suggests that the treatment of cross-linking followed by ultrasound (MPU) could be a desirable approach for improving the emulsifying stability of MP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracted proteins of alternative animal origin tend to present strong off-flavor perception due to physicochemical interactions of coextracted off-flavor compounds with proteins. To investigate the relationship between absorption behaviors of volatile aromas and the processes-induced variations in protein microstructures and molecular conformations, duck liver protein isolate (DLp) was subjected to heating (65/100 °C, 15 min) and ultra-high pressure (UHP, 100-500 MPa/10 min, 28 °C) treatments to obtain differential unfolded protein states. RESULTS Heat and UHP treatments induced the unfolding of DLp to varied degrees, as revealed by fluorescence spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible absorption, circular dichroism spectra and surface hydrophobicity measurements. Two types of heating-denatured states with varied unfolding degrees were obtained, while UHP at both levels of 100/500 MPa caused partial unfolding of DLp and the presence of a molten-globule state, which significantly enhanced the binding affinity between DLp and (E,E)-2,4-heptadienal. In particular, significantly modified secondary structures of DLp were observed in heating-denatured samples. Excessive denaturing and unfolding degrees resulted in no significant changes in the absorption behavior of the volatile ligand, as characterized by observations of fluorescence quenching and analysis of headspace concentrations. CONCLUSION Defining process-induced conformational transition behavior of matrix proteins could be a promising strategy to regulate food flavor attributes and, particularly, to produce DLp coextracted with limited off-flavor components by modifying their interaction during extraction processes. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Effects of hydrodynamic cavitation on physicochemical structure and emulsifying properties of tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus) myofibrillar protein. Front Nutr 2023; 10:1116100. [PMID: 36761226 PMCID: PMC9905136 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1116100] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this research was to explore the different hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) times (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 min; power 550 W, pressure 0.14 MPa) on the emulsifying properties of tilapia myofibrillar protein (TMP). Results of pH, particle size, turbidity, solubility, surface hydrophobicity, and reactive sulfhydryl (SH) group indicated that HC changed the structure of TMP, as confirmed by the findings of intrinsic fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectra. Furthermore, HC increased the emulsifying activity index (EAI) significantly (P < 0.05) and changed the emulsifying stability index (ESI), droplet size, and rheology of TMP emulsions. Notably, compared with control group, the 10-min HC significantly decreased particle size and turbidity but increased solubility (P < 0.05), resulting in accelerated diffusion of TMP in the emulsion. The prepared TMP emulsion showed the highest ESI (from 71.28 ± 5.50 to 91.73 ± 5.56 min), the smallest droplet size (from 2,754 ± 110 to 2,138 ± 182 nm) and the best rheological properties, as demonstrated by the microstructure photographs. Overall, by showing the effect of HC in improving the emulsifying properties of TMP, the study demonstrated HC as a potential technique for meat protein processing.

Abstract
Lipid oxidation will lead to the deterioration of flavor, color and texture of aquatic products with high fatty acid content. The mechanism of ultrasound (US) combined with rosmarinic acid (RA) on lipid oxidation and endogenous enzyme activities of large yellow croaker during cold-storage (4 ℃) was investigated. The result showed that the US and RA have synergistic effects in delaying lipid oxidation and inhibiting endogenous lipase and lipoxygenase (LOX) activities related to oxidation. The inhibition of LOX activity by RA was dose-dependent, and US showed a negative effect on the inhibition of enzyme activity in the presence of low concentration RA. Moreover, RA changes the enzyme structure through static fluorescence quenching and interaction with enzyme molecules. Hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interaction are the main interaction forces between RA and LOX. This study could provide basic mechanism of US treatment cooperating with polyphenols to inhibit lipid oxidation during food preservation.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the potential of time-dependent (0, 15, 30, 60, 120 min) treatment of porcine-derived myofibrillar proteins (MPs) with high-intensity ultrasound (HIU) for utilizing them as a Pickering stabilizer and decipher the underlying mechanism by which HIU treatment increases the emulsification and dispersion stability of MPs. To accomplish this, we analyzed the structural, physicochemical, and rheological properties of the HIU-treated MPs. Myosin heavy chain and actin were observed to be denatured, and the particle size of MPs decreased from 3,342.7 nm for the control group to 153.9 nm for 120 min HIU-treated MPs. Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy confirmed that as the HIU treatment time increased, α-helical content increased, and β-sheet decreased, indicating that the protein secondary/tertiary structure was modified. In addition, the turbidity, apparent viscosity, and viscoelastic properties of the HIU-treated MP solution were decreased compared to the control, while the surface hydrophobicity was significantly increased. Analyses of the emulsification properties of the Pickering emulsions prepared using time-dependent HIU-treated MPs revealed that the emulsion activity index and emulsion stability index of HIU-treated MP were improved. Confocal laser scanning microscopy images indicated that small spherical droplets adsorbed with MPs were formed by HIU treatment and that dispersion stabilities were improved because the Turbiscan stability index of the HIU-treated group was lower than that of the control group. These findings could be used as supporting data for the utilizing porcine-derived MPs, which have been treated with HIU for appropriate time periods, as Pickering stabilizers.

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
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
The effects of dual-frequency (40 + 20 kHz) and multi-angle ultrasound (0°, 30°, 45°) on the coagulation state, network structure, flavor and protein conformation of tofu gel were studied. The results showed that the gel flavor of 40 + 20 kHz 0° group was the best and fluorescence intensity was low. The gel flavor in the 40 + 20 kHz 30° group was better than the group without ultrasound, and hydrophobic interaction and disulfide bond content was the largest. Meanwhile, the degree of protein cross-link was increased. The gel in 40 + 20 kHz 45° group had tightly gel state, high thermal stability, but poor flavor. Combined with The Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS)-entropy weight method, the 40 + 20 kHz 30° group, was the best ultrasonic treatment of gel. It can change the interaction between proteins, promote protein cross-link, and form a uniform and dense gel network. Finally, the hardness and moisture content of finished tofu were increased significantly, and the quality was improved.

Abstract
Plasma is a new technology used to modify myofibrillar proteins (MPs) structure and promote protein aggregation. In order to study the mechanism of plasma modifying MPs thus the effects on qualities of MP gels, MPs were extracted by 0.6 M NaCl solution prepared with plasma-activated water (PAW) at different treatment time (0 s, 30 s, 60 s, 120 s, 240 s). With the prolonged PAW treatment time from 0 to 240 s, the pH values of natural MP solutions decreased significantly from 5.91 to 2.61 (P < 0.05), the H2O2 concentration in PAW increased from 0 to 70.82 μg/L (P < 0.05), and the net negative charges of MPs first decreased and then increased (P < 0.05). In addition, PAW caused significantly (P < 0.05) weakened ionic bonds and enhanced hydrophobic interactions, which promoted the aggregation and gelation of MPs thus forming MP gel with higher gel strength and a denser three-dimensional network. Furthermore, Raman spectra and intrinsic fluorescence suggested that PAW promoted the unfolding of MP structures and transformation from α-helixes and random coils to β-sheets and β-turns. Dynamic rheology indicated a gradually increased storage modulus and shortened degradation time of MPs with an increasing treatment time of PAW. Furthermore, PAW modification significantly improved the water holding capacity of MPs gels. These results demonstrated that the declined pH of MP solutions induced by PAW and increased H2O2 in PAW altered the ζ-potential of MP solutions and promoted the unfolding and aggregation of MPs during heating via hydrophobic interactions, ultimately enhancing gelling properties of MPs. The present work suggested the potential use of PAW in preparing freshwater MP gels with high quality. pH values of MP solutions were declined gradually by PAW with the treatment time. The H2O2 concentration in PAW increased gradually with the treatment time. PAW promoted the unfolding of MPs and formation of β-sheets. PAW weakened the ionic bonds and enhanced the hydrophobic interactions among MPs. PAW60 showed the highest WHC and protein solubility contributed by hydrogen bonds.
