Abstract
Freezing storage is a common preservation method for industrialized duck meat. However, both the frozen storage and thawing processes of meat can affect meat quality. Therefore, appropriate thawing methods are crucial for maintaining good meat quality. In this study, a pulsed electric field (PEF) was used for thawing zhijiang duck meat and the freshed duck meats were used as control. Optimization of the PEF-assisted thawing process and its effect on the quality of zhijiang duck meat were analyzed. Our data showed that the shear force in the 2 kV/cm PEF-assisted thawing group was the lowest in PEF-assisted thawing groups. The color of zhijiang duck meat in the 2 kV/cm PEF-assisted thawing group was optimal. The 2 kV/cm PEF-assisted thawing could improve the texture characteristics of zhijiang duck meat and enhance water holding capacity of zhijiang duck meat. PEF-assisted thawing could better maintain the microstructure of zhijiang duck meat. Our data showed that if the intensity or duration of PEF treatment is too high, the quality of duck meat will actually decrease. Therefore, appropriate parameters should be selected in practical applications, which will provide a reference for the application of PEF-assisted thawing on the market.

Food Res Int 2024; 193:114839. [PMID: 39160042 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114839] [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: 03/11/2024] [Revised: 07/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 08/21/2024]
Abstract
Meat quality (MQ) is unstable during cold chain logistics (CCL). Different technologies have been developed to enhance MQ during the CCL process, while most of them cannot cover all the links of the cold chain because of complex environment (especially transportation and distribution), compatibility issues, and their single effect. Electric fields (EFs) have been explored as a novel treatment for different food processing. The effects and potential advantages of EFs for biological cryopreservation have been reported in many publications and some commercial applications in CCL have been realized. However, there is still a lack of a systematic review on the effects of EFs on their quality attributes in meat and its applications in CCL. In this review, the potential mechanisms of EFs on meat physicochemical properties (heat and mass transfer and ice formation and melting) and MQ attributes during different CCL links (freezing, thawing, and refrigeration processes) were summarized. The current applications and limitations of EFs for cryopreserving meat were also discussed. Although high intensity EFs have some detrimental effects on the quality attributes in meat due to electroporation and electro-breakdown effect, EFs present good applicability opportunities in most CCL scenes that have been realized in some commercial applications. Future studies should focus on the biochemical reactions of meat to the different EFs parameters, and break the limitations on equipment, so as to make EFs techniques closer to usability in the production environment and realize cost-effective large-scale application of EFs on CCL.

Abstract
This study assessed previous research aimed at mitigating the adverse effects of freeze-thawing on meat quality. Specifically, it focuses on assessing the physicochemical alterations in meat resulting from freezing, freeze-thawing, or technologies to minimize these alterations. Recent studies have focused on conventional freeze-thaw technology applicable across various livestock species and muscle types. However, recent research has indicated the necessity for developing freeze-thaw technology considering the unique characteristics of individual muscles. In this review, we summarize previous studies that have compared alterations in the physicochemical properties of primary muscles owing to freezing or freeze-thawing. Despite the introduction of various technologies to significantly reduce the adverse effects on meat quality resulting from freeze-thawing, it is essential to consider the unique characteristics (proximate composition, pH, and muscle fiber characteristics) of individual muscles or cuts to develop enhanced the freeze-thaw processing technology.

Abstract
Freezing is an effective means to extend the shelf-life of meat products. However, freezing and thawing processes lead to physical (e.g., ice crystals formation and freezer burn) and biochemical changes (e.g., protein denaturation and lipid oxidation) in meat resulting in loss of quality. Over the last two decades, several attempts have been made to produce thawed meat with qualities similar to that of fresh meat to no avail. This is due to the fact that no single technique exists to date that can mitigate all the quality challenges caused by freezing and thawing. This is further confounded by the consumer perception of frozen meat as lower quality compared to equivalent fresh-never-frozen meat cuts. Therefore, it remains challenging for the meat industry to produce high quality frozen meat and increase consumer acceptability of frozen products. This review aimed to provide an overview of the applications of novel freezing and thawing technologies that could improve the quality of thawed meat including deep freezing, high pressure, radiofrequency, electro-magnetic resonance, electrostatic field, immersion solution, microwave, ohmic heating, and ultrasound. This review will also discuss the development in processing strategies such as optimising the ageing of meat pre- or post-freezing, and the integration of freezing and thawing in one process/regime to collapse the difference in quality between thawed meat and fresh-never-frozen equivalents.

Abstract
For years, various thawing technologies based on pressure, ultrasound, electromagnetic energy, and electric field energy have been actively investigated to minimize the amount of drip and reduce the quality deterioration of muscle foods during thawing. However, existing thawing technologies have limitations in practical applications due to their high costs and technical defects. Therefore, key factors of thawing technologies must be comprehensively analyzed, and their effects must be systematically evaluated by the quality indexes of muscle foods. In this review, the principles and key factors of thawing techniques are discussed, with an emphasis on combinations of thawing technologies. Furthermore, the application effects of thawing technologies in muscle foods are systematically evaluated from the viewpoints of eating quality and microbial and chemical stability. Finally, the disadvantages of the existing thawing technologies and the development prospects of tempering technologies are highlighted. This review can be highly instrumental in achieving more ideal thawing goals.

Abstract
Freezing can prolong the shelf life of muscle foods and is widely used in their preservation. However, inevitable quality deterioration can occur during freezing, frozen storage, and thawing. This review explores the eating quality deterioration characteristics (color, water holding capacity, tenderness, and flavor) and mechanisms (irregular ice crystals, oxidation, and hydrolysis of lipids and proteins) of frozen muscle foods. It also summarizes and classifies the novel physical-field-assisted-freezing technologies (high-pressure, ultrasound, and electromagnetic) and bioactive antifreeze (ice nucleation proteins, antifreeze proteins, natural deep eutectic solvents, carbohydrate, polyphenol, phosphate, and protein hydrolysates), regulating the dynamic process from water to ice. Moreover, some novel thermal and nonthermal thawing technologies to resolve the loss of water and nutrients caused by traditional thawing methods were also reviewed. We concluded that the physical damage caused by ice crystals was the primary reason for the deterioration in eating quality, and these novel techniques promoted the eating quality of frozen muscle foods under proper conditions, including appropriate parameters (power, time, and intermittent mode mentioned in ultrasound-assisted techniques; pressure involved in high-pressure-assisted techniques; and field strength involved in electromagnetic-assisted techniques) and the amounts of bioactive antifreeze. To obtain better quality frozen muscle foods, more efficient technologies and substances must be developed. The synergy of novel freezing/thawing technology may be more effective than individual applications. This knowledge may help improve the eating quality of frozen muscle foods.

Abstract
Vacuum-steam thawing is one of the methods used for defrosting food, realized in the atmosphere of water vapour under the conditions of reduced pressure. The water vapour formed in vacuum with the temperature of 20 °C fills the defrosting chamber and condenses on the surface of the defrosted product. The condensated steam has the role of thermal energy carried enabling product thawing. The study presents a modification of this method, introducing an additional stage of sublimation-dehydration vacuum steam thawing (SRVST). The study was carried out for different variants of initial sublimation degree (in the range from 0 to 15%) of a slice of pork loin (m. longissimus lumborum) assessing the final effect of the process of vacuum-steam thawing. Thawing kinetics was determined with the SRVST method, degree of sample defrosting and level of their rehydration. Based on the results it was demonstrated that the use of 12% sublimation dehydration of a meat sample enables its complete defrosting (reaching the temperature not exceeding the cryoscopic temperature).

Abstract
As one of the popular tropical fruits, mango has a relatively short shelf life due to its perishability. Therefore, post-harvest losses are always a topic of concern. Currently, freezing is a common approach to extending mango shelf life. In relation, it is also critical to select a proper thawing process to maintain its original quality attributes. In this study, microwave thawing, and ultra-high-pressure thawing were investigated, and traditional thawing methods (air thawing and water thawing) were compared as references. The thawing time, quality attributes, and sensory scores of frozen mangoes were evaluated. Compared to traditional methods, innovative thawing methods can extensively shorten thawing time. These things considered, the thawing time was further decreased with the increase in microwave power. Additionally, microwave thawing enhanced the quality of mangoes in terms of less color change and drip loss and reduced loss of firmness and vitamin C content. Microwave thawing at 300 W is recommended as the best condition for thawing mangoes, with the highest sensory score. Current work provides more data and information for selecting suitable thawing methods and optimum conditions for frozen mango to minimize losses.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the antibacterial properties and mechanisms of a high-voltage static electric field (HVEF) in Acinetobacter johnsonii, which were assessed from the perspective of biochemical properties and stress-related genes. The time/voltage-kill assays and growth curves showed that an HVEF decreased the number of bacteria and OD600 values. In addition, HVEF treatment caused the leakage of cell contents (nucleic acids and proteins), increased the electrical conductivity and amounts of reactive oxygen substances (ROS) (16.88 fold), and decreased the activity of Na+ K+-ATPase in A. johnsonii. Moreover, the changes in the expression levels of genes involved in oxidative stress and DNA damage in the treated A. johnsonii cells suggested that HVEF treatment could induce oxidative stress and DNA sub-damage. This study will provide useful information for the development and application of an HVEF in food safety.

Abstract
Frozen storage is one of the main storage methods for meat products. Freezing and thawing processes are important factors affecting the quality of stored foods. Deterioration of texture, denaturation of protein, decline of water holding capacity etc. are among the major quality issues during freezing that must be addressed. A number of advanced technologies are now available to detect the quality changes that can occur during freezing and/or thawing. This paper presents an overview of the techniques commonly used for the detection of meat product quality; these include: advanced microscopy, molecular sensory science and technology, nuclear magnetic resonance, hyperspectral technology, near infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy etc. These direct and indirect measurement techniques can characterize the quality of meat product from many different angles. The objective of this review is to provide an in-depth understanding of possible quality changes in meat products during freezing and thawing cycle so as to improve the quality of frozen and thawed meat products in industrial practice.

Abstract
In order to study the mechanism of high-voltage electric field (HVEF) biotechnology, corona discharge produced by a multi-needle-plate HVEF was used to treat naked oat seeds, each treatment dose was divided into two groups, one group was covered with a petri dish cover, the other group was directly exposed to HVEF without a petri dish cover. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) results show that the etching degree of the uncovered group was more serious than that of the covered group, it indicates that ion wind etching has a greater impact on the micro-morphology of seed coat, being covered can effectively reduce the etching degree of discharge plasma on seed. Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) of the seed coat shows most of the HVEF treatment group can form a new absorption peak at 1740 cm−1, which is closely related to the hydrophilicity of the seed. Comprehensive analysis shows that HVEF treatment can improve the hydrophilicity of seeds, whether they are covered or not. Being covered can reduce the degree of etching of the seed coat, but increase the hydrophilicity of the seed, indicating that the non-uniform electric field has a greater impact on the hydrophilicity of the seed. Our study showed that ion wind had an effect on the micro-morphology of seeds, but this effect didn’t translate into a macroscopic effect. This study provides ideas and experimental data support for the study of the biotechnological mechanism of HVEF.

Abstract
Applying high-voltage electric field (HVEF) to some food materials has been shown to increase the thawing rate. To investigate the effect of process parameters and electrode configuration in high-voltage electric field system, we took the frozen tofu as the research object and investigated the influence of the different voltages, electrode configuration, and electrode distances on thawing process. The thawing time, center temperatures, and loss rate of samples were measured. The results showed that the thawing time of frozen tofu decreases with the increase of voltage and the thawing time has a great relevance with configuration and distance of electrodes. The electric parameters have a major effect on thawing loss and thawing time when center temperatures of frozen tofu are from −2°C to 0°C. This work provides clues and experimental basis for the further application of high-voltage electric field thawing technology.

Abstract
This article reviews the recent developments in novel freezing and thawing technologies applied to foods. These novel technologies improve the quality of frozen and thawed foods and are energy efficient. The novel technologies applied to freezing include pulsed electric field pre-treatment, ultra-low temperature, ultra-rapid freezing, ultra-high pressure and ultrasound. The novel technologies applied to thawing include ultra-high pressure, ultrasound, high voltage electrostatic field (HVEF), and radio frequency. Ultra-low temperature and ultra-rapid freezing promote the formation and uniform distribution of small ice crystals throughout frozen foods. Ultra-high pressure and ultrasound assisted freezing are non-thermal methods and shorten the freezing time and improve product quality. Ultra-high pressure and HVEF thawing generate high heat transfer rates and accelerate the thawing process. Ultrasound and radio frequency thawing can facilitate thawing process by volumetrically generating heat within frozen foods. It is anticipated that these novel technologies will be increasingly used in food industries in the future.

Abstract
To systematically and comprehensively investigate the high voltage alternating electric field (HVAEF) thawing processing, we investigated the high-voltage electric field thawing characteristic of the frozen tofu at different voltages for alternating current (AC). The thawing time, thawing loss of frozen tofu, and specific energy consumption (SEC) of HVEF system were measured. Seven different mathematical models were then compared to simulate thawing time curves based on root mean square error, reduced mean square of deviation, and modeling efficiency. The results showed that the thawing rate of frozen tofu was notably greater in the high-voltage electric field system when compared to control. Both Linear and Quadratic models were the best mathematical models. Therefore, this work presents a facile and effective strategy for experimentally and theoretically determining the HVAEF thawing properties of frozen tofu.

Abstract
Abstract
The influence of pulsed electric field (PEF) on the drying behavior of potato was investigated, and the optimal parameters were determined. Drying experiments were conducted with different PEF pre-treatments. The effects of process parameters of PEF pre-treatment were examined with respect to drying rate, drying time, productivity per unit area, and energy consumption. Results showed that the three parameters investigated were significant in the following sequence: pulse number, electric field strength, and pulse width. The optimal electric field strength, pulse width, and pulse number were 1,500 V cm−1, 120 μs, and 45 pulses, respectively. Under these optimal conditions, productivity per unit area increased by 32.28%, specific energy consumption decreased by 16.59%, drying time was shortened by 31.47%, and drying rate improved by 14.31% compared with the control group.
