Food Chem 2024; 456:139996. [PMID: 38925008 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139996] [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: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
This study was aimed to evaluate the potential of high-humidity hot air impingement cooking (HHAIC) on Penaeus vannamei, focusing on its drying characteristics, microstructure, water distribution, enzyme activity, astaxanthin content, antioxidant capacity, color, and Maillard reaction. Results demonstrated that a 3 min HHAIC significantly improved the shrimp's color and optimized astaxanthin content with a notable increase in scavenging capacity based on an in-vitro as antioxidation activity evaluation. Compared to the untreated samples, HHAIC could significantly inactivate polyphenol oxidase by 95.76%. Also, it suppressed the Maillard reaction by decreasing 5-hydroxymethylfurfural content and shortened the drying time by 40%. In addition, the low-field nuclear magnetic resonance and microstructure analysis showed alterations in the shrimp muscle fiber structure and water distribution. This study indicated that HHAIC could elevate quality, enhance appearance, and reduce the processing time of dried shrimp, presenting valuable implications for industry progress.

Food Chem 2024; 463:141472.

Abstract
The quality of Polygonatum cyrtonema rhizome is considerably influenced by steaming, a post-harvest procedure; however, the mechanisms behind this quality formation are not well understood. This study explored two innovative streaming methods for Polygonatum cyrtonema rhizome: constant temperature and humidity steaming and drying (CTHSD) and constant temperature and humidity combined with vacuum-steam pulsed steaming and drying (CTH + VSPSD). Traditional atmospheric steaming, simmering, and drying (ASD) were also used. We evaluated the microstructure, colour and polysaccharide, reducing sugar, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, amino acid, phenolics and diosgenin contents as well as its antioxidant capacity. Results indicated that all methods enhanced antioxidant activity, released phenolic compounds and disrupted the microscopic pore wall structure. The processed samples exhibited increased browning values owing to non-enzymatic browning reactions between amino acids and reducing sugars. Notably, the CTH + VSPSD method yielded the highest antioxidant capacity, better preservation of polysaccharides and lower levels of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural compared to other methods. Additionally, CTH + VSPSD reduced production time by 66.7 % while achieving a comparable colour profile to that of conventional ASD technology. Therefore, the CTH + VSPSD method shows great promise for producing high-quality Polygonatum cyrtonema rhizome products.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impacts of different drying technologies including microwave drying (MD), vacuum microwave drying (VMD), sun drying (SD), vacuum drying (VD), hot air drying (HAD), and vacuum freeze drying (VFD) on the physical characteristics, nutritional properties and antioxidant capacities of kiwifruit pomace in order to realize by-product utilization and improve energy efficiency. Results showed that both MD and VMD significantly reduced drying time by >94.6%, compared to traditional thermal drying which took 14-48 h. MD exhibited the highest content of soluble dietary fiber (9.5%) and the lowest energy consumption. Furthermore, VMD resulted in the highest content of vitamin C (198.78 mg/100 g) and reducing sugar (73.78%), and the antioxidant capacities ranked only second to VFD. Given the financial advantages and product quality, VMD was suggested to be advantageous technology in actual industrial production.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:2679-2691. [PMID: 37994162 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13153] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2023] [Revised: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Potato is an important non-cereal crop. It provides carbohydrates, a major source of energy in the human diet. Blanching during the processing of fresh fruits and vegetables is essential for their preservation. High-humidity hot-air impingement blanching (HHAIB) is a promising emerging technology for pretreating different food materials. This research aimed to identify the optimum HHAIB conditions for the inhibition of potato-browning enzymes, maintaining their nutritional and physical quality, and to compare this with conventional hot-water blanching (HWB). RESULTS Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) inactivation, total phenol content (TPC), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, color, textural attributes, thermal properties, microstructure, and particles crystallinity were evaluated. The relative humidity (RH), temperature, and duration of HHAIB required for PPO inactivation (2.59%) were 50%, 105 °C, and 4 min, respectively, which resulted in a complete gelatigination of potato starches, based on the thermal properties and the microstrcture of the blanched potatoes. These conditions led to improvements in TPC to 312.54 μg GAE.g-1 FP, DPPH scavenging to 1.99 μmol TE.g-1 FP, as well as enhancements in color and crystallinity. When HHAIB was conducted at lower temperatures (85 and 95 °C) there were negative effects on the blanched potatoes' color and crystallinity, along with a non-safe level of PPO activity. CONCLUSION High-humidity hot-air impingement blanching was superior to HWB, inhibiting PPO, maintaining nutrients, and preserving physical properties, especially under the optimum conditions revealed by the principal component analysis. It provides an excellent technique for blanching and pretreating potatoes, preserving them, and maintaining their quality. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Drying is an important preservation method of casein. Traditional natural draining and drying processes have low efficiency, long processing time, and poor product quality, which urgently need to be improved. This study investigated the effects of pre-dehydration intensities (30 N 30 min (PreD1) and 50 N 30 min (PreD2)) and drying methods (including pulsed vacuum drying (PVD), infrared drying (IRD), and hot air drying (HAD)) on the drying kinetics, drying modeling, and quality of yak milk casein. These findings reveal that PreD2 and PVD both had a positive impact on shortening the drying time. Compared to other combined treatments, PreD2-PVD had the shortest drying time of 6 h. The Midilli-Kucuk mathematical model effectively predicted the drying of casein. The yak milk casein powder treated with PreD2-PVD possessed a higher content of gross compositions, superior color, lower levels of fat oxidation and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), and higher emulsifying activity index (EAI) and emulsion stability index (ESI) values. Overall, combining pre-dehydration with PVD proved effective in improving the drying rate and maintaining a good quality of yak milk casein, showing promising potential for industrial applications.

Optimization of Chemical Extraction Conditions of Dietary Fiber from Cistanche deserticola Residues and Its Structural Characteristics and Physicochemical and Functional Properties.

Abstract
Cistanche deserticola residues are by-products of the industrial production of Cistanche deserticola, which are currently often discarded, resulting in the waste of resources. In order to achieve the efficient utilization of Cistanche deserticola, dietary fiber from Cistanche deserticola residues was extracted chemically and the optimization of the extraction conditions was performed, using the response surface methodology to study the effects of the NaOH concentration, extraction temperature, extraction time, and solid-liquid ratio on the yield of water-soluble dietary fiber (SDF). The structural, physicochemical, and functional properties of the dietary fiber were also investigated. The results showed that the optimal conditions were as follows: NaOH concentration of 3.7%, extraction temperature of 71.7 °C, extraction time of 89.5 min, and solid-liquid ratio of 1:34. The average yield of SDF was 19.56%, which was close to the predicted value of 19.66%. The two dietary fiber types had typical polysaccharide absorption peaks and typical type I cellulose crystal structures, and the surface microstructures of the two dietary fiber types were different, with the surface of SDF being looser and more porous. Both dietary fiber types had good functional properties, with SDF having the strongest water-holding capacity and the strongest adsorption capacity for nitrite, cholesterol, sodium cholate, and glucose, while IDF had a better oil-holding capacity. These results suggest that Cistanche deserticola residues are a good source of dietary fiber and have promising applications in the functional food processing industry.

Abstract
The primary goals of this study were to identify the influence of temperature and drying time on pretreated cassava flour, as well as the optimal settings for the factors and to analyze the microstructure of cassava flour. The experiment was designed using the response surface methodology with central composite design and the superimposition approach in order to assess the effect of drying temperature (45.85-74.14 °C) and drying time (3.96-11.03 h) and the optimal drying conditions of the cassava flour investigated. Soaking and blanching were applied as pretreatments to freshly sliced cassava tubers. The value moisture content of cassava flour was between 6.22% and 11.07%, whereas the observed whiteness index in cassava flour ranged from 72.62 to 92.67 in all pretreated cassava flour samples. Through analysis of variance, each drying factor, their interaction, and all squared terms had a substantial impact on moisture content and whiteness index. The optimized values for drying temperature and drying time for each pretreated cassava flour were 70 °C and 10 h, respectively. The microstructure showed a non-gelatinized, relatively homogeneous in size and shape sample with pretreatment soaked in distilled water at room temperature. These study results are relevant to the development of more sustainable cassava flour production.

Abstract
In the current work, the effects of steam and boiling water blanching on the drying characteristics, water distribution, microstructure, and contents of bioactive substances of Gastrodia elata (G. elata) were explored. Results showed that the degree of steaming and blanching was related to the core temperature of G. elata. The steaming and blanching pretreatment increased the drying time of the samples by more than 50%. The low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) of treated samples showed that the relaxation time corresponded to water molecule states (bound, immobilized, and free) and G. elata became shorter, which indicated a reduction in free moisture and increased resistance of water diffusion in the solid structure during drying. Hydrolysis of polysaccharides and gelatinization of starch granules was observed in the microstructure of treated samples, which was consistent with changes in water status and drying rates. Steaming and blanching increased gastrodin and crude polysaccharide contents and decreased p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol content. These findings will contribute to a better understanding of the effect of steaming and blanching on the drying behavior and quality attributes of G. elata.
