Food Res Int 2024; 187:114361. [PMID: 38763645 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114361] [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: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
This work investigated the cryoprotective effect of trehalose (TH) and sodium pyrophosphate (SPP) alone and in combination on myofibrillar protein (MP) oxidation and structural changes in silver carp surimi during 90 days of frozen storage (-20 °C). TH combined with SPP was significantly more effective than single TH or SPP in preventing MP oxidation (P < 0.05), showing a higher SH content (6.05 nmol/mg protein), and a lower carbonyl (4.24 nmol/mg protein) and dityrosine content (1280 A.U.). SDS-PAGE results indicated that TH combined with SPP did not differ significantly from TH and SPP in inhibiting protein degradation but was more effective in inhibiting protein crosslinking. Moreover, all cryoprotectants could stabilise the secondary and tertiary structures and inhibit unfolded and aggregation of MP, with the combination of TH and SPP being the best. It's worth noting that TH combined with SPP had a synergistic effect on inhibiting the decrease in α-helix content and gel-forming ability, and the increase in surface hydrophobicity. Overall, TH combined with SPP could significantly inhibited MP oxidation and structural changes in surimi during frozen storage and improve the gel-forming ability, which was significantly better than single TH or SPP.

Abstract
The inherent functional fractions (gelation and ice-affinitive fractions) of gelatin enable it as a promising cryoprotectant alternative. However, the composition-antifreeze property relationships of gelatin remain to be investigated. In this study, the HW-PSG and LW-PSG fractions of gelatin from fish scales were obtained, according to the critical gelation conditions and ice-binding measurements, respectively. Thermal hysteresis (THA) value, associated with ice nucleation, of LW-PSG was higher than that of HW-PSG. Besides, the relatively low-sized ice crystals (210-550 μm2) indicated that HW-PSG showed strong ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) ability, compared to other groups. These results suggested that LW-PSG inhibited ice nucleation, while HW-PSG displayed the strong IRI ability. Furthermore, the antifreeze mechanisms were clarified through IRI measurements and molecular dynamics simulation. The minimum size of ice crystals was found for HW-PSG gels with dense microstructure, suggesting the HW-PSG retarded the growth of ice crystals by restricting the migration and phase transformation of water molecules. The hydrogen bond interactions between the ice crystal surface and ASN1294 and PRO1433 residues of LW-PSG, and hydrophobic interactions contributed to inhibiting the nucleation of ice crystals. This study provided some references to further enhance antifreeze performance of gelatin by modulating fragment composition.

Food Chem X 2024; 21:101123. [PMID: 38292675 PMCID: PMC10827391 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101123] [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: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
The impact of exogenous limiting amino acids on protein gel formation was investigated to enhance the gelation properties of Landaise goose myofibrillar protein (MP). Amino acid composition and gel properties were analyzed, and homologous protein modeling and molecular docking techniques were used to simulate binding sites. Valine was identified as the first limiting amino acid. The addition of 0.075 % dl-valine proved optimal to enhance the gel strength (59.5 g) and water retention (76.76 %) of MP gels. Hydrophobic interactions and disulfide bonds were found to be the main forces maintaining conformational stability of the MP-dl-valine gels. The propyl group of dl-valine can form hydrophobic interactions with protein, contributing to stable complexes. DL valine could also strengthen chemical bonds and secondary structure, convert free water to immobile water, and improve the microstructure of the gel. Therefore, valine can be utilized as a nutritional and gel enhancer in Landaise goose meat products.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is capturing great interest worldwide due to their stirring applications in various fields and also individual application of iron oxide nanoparticle (FeO - NPs) and selenium nanoparticles (Se - NPs) have been studied in many literatures. However, the combined application of FeO and Se - NPs is a novel approach and studied in only few studies. For this purpose, a pot experiment was conducted to examine various growth and biochemical parameters in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under the toxic concentration of cadmium (Cd) i.e., 50 mg kg-1 which were primed with combined application of two levels of FeO and Se - NPs i.e., 15 and 30 mg L-1 respectively. The results showed that the Cd toxicity in the soil showed a significantly (P < 0.05) declined in the growth, gas exchange attributes, sugars, AsA-GSH cycle, cellular fractionation, proline metabolism in T. aestivum. However, Cd toxicity significantly (P < 0.05) increased oxidative stress biomarkers, enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants including their gene expression in T. aestivum. Although, the application of FeO and Se - NPs showed a significant (P < 0.05) increase in the plant growth and biomass, gas exchange characteristics, enzymatic and non-enzymatic compounds and their gene expression and also decreased the oxidative stress, and Cd uptake. In addition, individual or combined application of FeO and Se - NPs enhanced the cellular fractionation and decreases the proline metabolism and AsA - GSH cycle in T. aestivum. These results open new insights for sustainable agriculture practices and hold immense promise in addressing the pressing challenges of heavy metal contamination in agricultural soils.

Abstract
This study aimed to improve the pasty texture of squid meat by oxidative and phosphate curing (OPC) treatment, and elucidate the underlying mechanism. The shear force, springiness, weight gain, water-holding capacity (WHC), color and sensory evaluation of squid meat samples treated with a mild OPC approach (OPC_2, 10 mM H2O2 solution with complex phosphate solution) were significantly improved. However, the samples subjected to over-oxidized (20 and 30 mM H2O2 solution with complex phosphate solution) treatment did not obtain favorable outcomes. Microstructure analysis revealed that muscle fibers aggregated after moderate OPC treatments, leading to an increased spacing between muscle fiber bundles. This gap facilitated a more uniform distribution and restriction of water, according to low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) results. The results from in vitro simulated oxidation of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) demonstrated that increased H2O2 led to formation of carbonyl groups and decreased sulfhydryl groups, and even secondary structure changes, according to fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Particle size, zeta potential and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryl amide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) results showed that oxidation caused protein aggregation into larger molecules. This study presents a novel approach to improve pasty texture of squid meat.

Abstract
Protein oxidation leads to changes in shrimp texture, which affects sensory profile and consumer acceptability. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of electron beam irradiation (EBI) on protein oxidation and textural properties of Litopenaeus vannamei during refrigerated storage. Results revealed that EBI treatment and storage increased the protein oxidation level of shrimps. Shrimps irradiated with ≥ 7 kGy exhibited remarkably higher (P < 0.05) reactive oxygen species, turbidity, and carbonyl contents, and remarkably lower (P < 0.05) Ca2+-ATPase activity, surface hydrophobicity, solubility, and total sulfhydryl contents compared to the control group (0 kGy) on the 7th day of storage. Shrimps irradiated with 3 and 5 kGy exhibited remarkably higher (P < 0.05) hardness, springiness, and chewiness compared to the control group (14.99 N, 1.26 mm, and 3.19 mJ). Collectively, suitable EBI doses of 3-5 kGy were recommended in shrimp preservation to inhibit texture softening by inducing moderate protein oxidation.

Abstract
Freezing is an effective technology with which to maintain food quality. However, the formation of ice crystals during this process can cause damage to the cellular structure, leading to food deterioration. A good understanding of the relationship between food microstructure and ice morphology, as well as the ability to effectively measure and control ice crystals, is very useful to achieve high-quality frozen foods. Hence, a brief discussion is presented on the fundamentals/principles of optical microscopic techniques (light microscopy), electronic microscopic techniques (transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)), as well as other non-invasive techniques (X-rays, spectroscopy, and magnetic resonance) and their application to measuring ice formation rates and characterizing ice crystals, providing insight into the freezing mechanisms as well as direct monitoring of the entire process. And, in addition, this review compares (the negative and positive aspects of) the use of simple and cheap but destructive technologies (optical microscopy) with detailed microscopic technologies at the micro/nanometer scale but with pretreatments that alter the original sample (SEM and TEM), and non-destructive technologies that do not require sample preparation but which have high acquisition and operational costs. Also included are images and examples which demonstrate how useful an analysis using these techniques can be.

Abstract
To investigate the impact of frozen storage conditions on the physicochemical properties of soybean protein and explore the underlying mechanisms, this study focused on soybean isolate (SPI), ß-soybean companion globulin (7S), and soybean globulin (11S). The protein solutions were prepared at a concentration of 2% and subjected to freezing for 1 and 5 days. Subsequently, the protein content, physicochemical properties, secondary structure, sulfhydryl content, and chemical interaction forces were assessed and analyzed using UV spectrophotometry, Zeta potential measurements, SDS-PAGE, Fourier infrared spectroscopy, and endogenous fluorescence photoemission spectroscopy. The obtained results revealed that the solubility and total sulfhydryl content of SPI, 7S, and 11S exhibited a decreasing trend with prolonged freezing time. Among them, 11S demonstrated the largest decrease in solubility and total sulfhydryl content, followed by SPI, and 7S the least. During freezing, the aromatic amino acids of SPI, 7S, and 11S molecules were exposed, leading to increased hydrophobicity, protein aggregation, and particle size enlargement, and the structure of the protein changed from disordered structure to ordered structure. After freezing, the polarity of the microenvironment of SPI, 7S, and 11S increased, and their maximum fluorescence emission wavelengths were red-shifted. Notably, the largest red shift of SPI was from 332 nm to 335 nm. As freezing time increased, the contribution of hydrogen bonding increased, while the contribution of hydrophobic interactions decreased. This indicates that freezing affects the hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and other chemical forces of the protein. The growth of ice crystals leads to the unfolding of protein molecular chains, exposure of internal hydrophobic groups, enhancement of hydrophobicity, and alters the secondary structure of the protein.

Abstract
This study examined the effects of protein oxidation on digestion behavior. The oxidation levels and in vitro digestibility of myofibrillar proteins from fresh-brined and frozen bighead carp fillets were investigated, and the intestinal transport property was characterized by comparing the peptides on both sides of the intestinal membrane. Frozen fillets showed high oxidation levels, low amino acid content and in vitro protein digestibility, which were further increased by brining. After storage, the number of modified peptides from myosin heavy chain (MHC) increased over 10-fold in NaCl-treated samples (2.0 M). Various types of side-chain modifications in amino acids were identified, such as di-oxidation, α-aminoadipic semialdehyde (AAS), γ-glutamic semialdehyde (GGS), and protein-malondialdehyde (MDA) adducts, mainly originating from MHC. The Lysine/Arginine-MDA adducts, AAS, and GGS decreased protein digestibility and their intestinal transportation. These findings suggest that oxidation impacts protein digestion and should be considered in food processing and preservation strategies.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 234:123710.

Abstract
The effect of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCH) on the oxidation stability and gel properties of myofibrillar protein (MP) from frozen pork patties was investigated. The results showed that CMCH could inhibit the denaturation of MP induced by freezing. Compared with the control group, the protein solubility was significantly (P < 0.05) increased, while the carbonyl content, the loss of sulfhydryl groups, and the surface hydrophobicity were decreased, respectively. Meanwhile, the incorporation of CMCH could alleviate the influence of frozen storage on water mobility and reduce the water loss. With the increased concentration of CMCH, the whiteness, strength, and water-holding capacity (WHC) of MP gels were significantly improved, in which the maximum value was at addition level of 1 %. In addition, CMCH inhibited the decrease in the maximum elastic (G') value and loss factor (tan δ) value of samples. By scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation, CMCH stabilized the microstructure of the gel and maintained the relative integrity of the gel tissue. These findings suggest that CMCH could be used as a cryoprotectant to maintain the structural stability of MP in pork patty during frozen storage.

Abstract
Pale, soft and exudative (PSE) meat has worse edible quality than red, firm and non-exudative (RFN) meat, but their difference in nutritional values is still unclear. In this study, the differences in digestive properties between PSE and RFN pork were explored, and the potential mechanisms were analyzed in terms of protein conformation. The PSE pork showed significantly higher digestibility and smaller particle size compared with RFN pork (P < 0.05) after gastrointestinal digestion. Mechanistically, the lower viscosity was seen in the PSE pork digestion system. The protein structure of PSE pork was disordered with weaker hydrogen bond and ionic bond before and after heating. In addition, the protein (mainly salt-soluble protein) of PSE pork was highly oxidized. The results suggested that higher level of oxidation in PSE pork leads to the destruction of the molecular forces, resulting in the impaired protein conformation and disordered protein structure. The serial changes caused the meat proteins more accessible to digestive enzymes, thus improving the digestibility. The findings provide new insights into the evaluating the quality of PSE meat.

Abstract
Influence of the constant heating treatment on structural and adsorption properties of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) of chicken was investigated. The results showed that heat treatment enhanced the exposure of sulfhydryl groups and improved hydrophobicity of MPs surface. Particle size distribution of MPs significantly varied depending on heat treatment duration. Also, heat treatments resulted in significant changes in the α-helix and β-sheet structures of MPs. Besides, the MPs formed larger, irregular, and cluster-like aggregates after heat treatments. Moreover, heat treatments increased viscosity and surface roughness of MPs, while zeta potential value was reduced after heat treatments. Furhthermore, binding interactions between the MPs and spices flavors signifcanlty varied relying on nature of MPs and flavor compounds, as well as heat treatments duration. Amino acid residues were interacted with flavor compounds of spices via a variety of bonds and a stable MPs-flavors complex was performed. The obtained results provide a basis for understanding structural and physicochemical changes that occur in MPs during cooking and the interactions between MPs and flavors of spices.

Abstract
As a novel animal meat alternative, plant-based meat (PBM) frequently suffers from quality problems as a result of freeze-thaw cycles in commercial transportation and household storage. There is a need to reduce the deterioration of PBM attributes, such as water holding capacity, as a result of these freeze-thaw cycles. In this study, Daucus carota antifreeze protein (DcAFP) and its deglycosylated mutant DcAFP-N294G were heterologously expressed in Komagataella phaffii X33. The effects of pretreatment with recombinant AFPs (rAFPs) on the microstructure, rheological properties, water mobility, and water distribution of PBM were assessed. The rDcAFP-N294G-treated PBM samples had superior viscoelasticity and water distribution features compared to the rDcAFP-treated group because the complex N-linked oligosaccharides did not interfere with the binding of rAFPs to ice molecules. In addition, rAFP pretreatment resulted in a smoother and flatter surface of the high-moisture protein extrudate matrix compared to the commercial cryoprotectant trehalose. Deglycosylated DcAFP has potential applications as a new effective cryoprotectant in meat alternatives.

Abstract
Ice recrystallization is harmful to the quality of frozen foods and the cryopreservation of cells and biological tissues, requiring biocompatible materials with ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) activity. Emerging studies have associated IRI activity with amphiphilic structures. We propose amphiphilic amyloid protein fibrils (APFs) may be IRI-active. APFs were prepared from whey protein isolate (WPI) in water (W-APFs) and in trifluoroethanol (TFE-APFs). W-APFs and TFE-APFs were more IRI-active than WPI over a concentration range of 2.5-10.0 mg/mL. Both APFs showed stronger IRI activity at pH 3.0 than at pH 5.0, 7.0, and 10.0, which was ascribed to the effect of water dispersibility and fibril length. The reduced IRI activity of the two APFs with increasing NaCl content was caused by fibril aggregation. Ice binding by APFs was absent or very weak. Ordered water was observed for the two APFs, which might be essential for IRI activity. Our findings may lead to the use of APFs as novel ice recrystallization inhibitors.

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
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
In this study, the comparison effects of ultrasound-assisted immersion freezing (UIF) at different ultrasonic power, immersion freezing (IF), and air freezing (AF) on the protein thermal stability, protein structure, and physicochemical properties of adductor muscle of scallop (Argopecten irradians) (AMS) during frozen storage were investigated. Principal component analysis and the Taylor diagram were used to comprehensively analyze all the indicators tested. The results showed that the UIF at 150 W (UIF-150) treatment was the most effective way to delay the quality deterioration of AMS during 90-day frozen storage. This was mainly because, compared to AF and IF treatments, UIF-150 treatment more effectively minimized the changes in the primary, secondary and tertiary structures of myofibrillar proteins, and it preserved the protein thermal stability of AMS by producing small and regular ice crystals in the AMS tissue during the freezing process. Moreover, the results of physicochemical properties indicated that UIF-150 treatment significantly inhibited the fat oxidation and microbiological activities of frozen AMS, and it finally maintained the microstructure and texture of AMS during frozen storage. Overall, UIF-150 has potential industrial application prospects in the rapid freezing and quality preservation of scallops.

Abstract
Freezing is widely used in food preservation, but if not carried out properly, ice crystals can multiply (nucleation) or grow (recrystallization) rapidly. This also affects thawing, causing structural damage and affecting overall quality. The objective of this review is to comprehensively study the cryoprotective effect of antifreeze proteins (AFPs), highlighting their role in the freeze-thaw process of food. The properties of AFPs are based on their thermal hysteresis capacity (THC), on the modification of crystal morphology and on the inhibition of ice recrystallization. The mechanism of action of AFPs is based on the adsorption-inhibition theory, but the specific role of hydrogen and hydrophobic bonds/residues and structural characteristics is also detailed. Because of the properties of AFPs, they have been successfully used to preserve the quality of a wide variety of refrigerated and frozen foods. Among the limitations of the use of AFPs, the high cost of production stands out, but currently there are solutions such as the use the production of recombinant proteins, cloning and chemical synthesis. Although in vitro, in vivo and human studies have shown that AFPs are non-toxic, their safety remains a matter of debate. Further studies are recommended to expand knowledge about AFPs, to reduce costs in their large-scale production, to understand their interaction with other food compounds and their possible effects on the consumer.

Abstract
Freezing is commonly used to extend the shelf life of meat and meat products but may impact the overall quality of those products by inducing structural changes in myofibrillar proteins (MPs) through denaturation, chemical modification, and encouraging protein aggregation. This review covers the effect of freezing on the denaturation of MPs in terms of the effects of ice crystallization on solute concentrations, cold denaturation, and protein oxidation. Freezing-induced denaturation of MPs begins with ice crystallization in extracellular spaces and changes in solute concentrations in the unfrozen water fraction. At typical temperatures for freezing meat (lower than -18 °C), cold denaturation of proteins occurs, accompanied by an alteration in their secondary and tertiary structure. Moreover, the disruption of muscle cells triggers the release of cellular enzymes, accelerating protein degradation and oxidation. To minimize severe deterioration during the freezing and frozen storage of meat, there is a vital need to use an appropriate freezing temperature below the glass transition temperature and to avoid temperature fluctuations during storage to prevent recrystallization. Such an understanding of MP denaturation can be applied to determine the optimum freezing conditions for meat products with highly retained sensory, nutritional, and functional qualities.

Abstract
The effects of vacuum thawing (VT), ultrasound thawing (UT) and microwave thawing (MT) on the quality, protein and lipid oxidation, internal temperature distribution and microstructure of porcine longissimus lumborum were compared. The results showed that a significant decrease (p < 0.05) in quality compared with those of fresh meat (FM) occurred for all of the thawing samples, especially for the MT samples. Changes in quality of the VT and UT samples were less significant than those of the MT samples. The increases in carbonyl content and TBARS value indicated that proteins and lipids in the thawing samples were oxidized. The decreases in uniform degrees of internal temperature distributions of muscles from the thawing samples were analysed by infrared thermography. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the myofibril arrangements of thawing samples were looser than those of the FM samples with compact and ordered structure, which was proven by the obvious increase in the myofibril gap value of the thawing samples.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate the positive effect of ultrasound-assisted saline thawing (UST) on the technological properties (water mobility, water holding capacity, colour, pH, shear force, TVB-N, oxidation reaction and microstructure) of mirror carp (Cyprinus carpio L.). The results present in the study showed that different thawing methods had negative impacts on the quality of mirror carp to varying degrees. Among them, UST samples had significant lower thawing loss, centrifugal loss and cooking loss than ultrasound thawing (UT) and air thawing (AT) samples (P < 0.05). The analysis result of low-field nuclear magnetic resonance illustrated that UST inhibited the mobility and distribution of water effectively. Decrease in shear force and TVBN values were observed in all thawing samples, and the UST samples maintained the significant better texture property and freshness than UT and AT samples did (P < 0.05). In addition, the treatment of UST obtained 1% salt concentration inhibited the oxidation reactions effectively. Investigation of the microstructure of samples demonstrated that the treatment of UST kept the relatively complete structure of tissue than other thawing methods. Therefore, UST can be an alternative strategy to the traditional thawing of meat.

Myofibrillar Protein Interacting with Trehalose Elevated the Quality of Frozen Meat. Foods 2022; 11:foods11071041.

Abstract
This work studied the interactions between trehalose/chitooligosaccharide (COS) and myofibrillar protein (MP), and the effect of such interactions on the quality of meat after freezing was also evaluated. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that both trehalose and COS could enhance the content of hydrogen bonds of MP. Zeta potential measurement displayed trehalose/COS reduced the absolute value of the surface potential of MP. The results of Raman spectroscopy suggested that the hydrophobic residues of MP were more exposed after treatment with trehalose/COS. Thus, trehalose and COS could both interact with MP through non-covalent bonds. Subsequently, the evaluation of the effect of trehalose and COS on the physicochemical properties of frozen meat was conducted. Results showed that both trehalose and COS significantly reduced thawing loss of frozen meat, and sensory evaluation showed that trehalose had a better performance from the perspective of smell, texture, and overall consumer acceptance. In conclusion, trehalose/COS interacting with MP can reduce meat thawing loss, which might provide technical guidance in the quality control of frozen meat.

Abstract
Inspired by the salt-in effect, the potential use of protein-glutaminase (PG) to increase the intrinsic charges of chicken breast myofibrillar proteins (CMPs) for enhanced water solubility was tested. The degree of deamidation (DD) and solubility of CMPs increased with PG reaction time. Over 60% of CMPs were soluble in water under a DD of 6.5% due to specific conversion of glutamine to glutamic acid. PG deamidation could remarkably increase the net charge of CMPs with a merit in maintaining most of the amino acid and protein subunit compositions. Such a high electrostatic repulsion exerted a transformation of β-sheet into α-helix, unfolded the structure to expose hydrophobic residues, and allowed the dissociation of myofibril and release of subunits (myosin, actin or their oligomers), leading to a stable colloidal state. This work may foster the engineering advances of protein micro-modification in the tailor manufacture of muscle protein-based beverages.

Abstract
The effect of antifreeze protein (AFP) on the water-holding capacity (WHC) and texture properties of the Patinopecten yessoensis adductor muscles during freeze–thaw cycles (FTCs) were evaluated based on three impregnation methods: general impregnation (GI), vacuum impregnation (VI), and ultrasound-assisted VI (US-VI). The WHC, texture properties, and tissue microstructure were all evaluated. Results showed that the WHC and texture properties of adductor muscle were significantly improved in the VI and US-VI groups during FTCs (p < 0.05). The WHC of the adductor muscle in the US-VI group was maximally enhanced in terms of yield (6.63%), centrifugal loss, cooking loss, and T22. The US-VI group of the adductor muscle had the optimal chewiness and springiness compared to others, and the shear force and hardness were most effectively enhanced by VI. The growth and recrystallization of ice crystals in the frozen adductor muscle were significantly inhibited by VI and US-VI. The average cross-sectional area and roundness of ice crystals in the US-VI group were decreased by 61.89% and increased by 22.22% compared with those of the control, respectively. The partial least squares regression (PLSR) model further confirmed that the WHC and texture properties of the adductor muscle were correlated appreciably with the degree of modification of ice crystal morphology through the AFP.

Abstract
Frozen storage is most widely adopted preservation method to maintain food freshness and nutritional attributes. However, at low temperature, food is prone to chemical changes such as protein denaturation and lipid oxidation. In this review, we discussed the reasons and influencing factors that cause protein denaturation during freezing, such as freezing rate, freezing temperature, freezing method, etc. From the previous literatures, it was found that frozen storage is commonly used to prevent freeze induced protein denaturation by adding cryoprotectants to food. Some widely used cryoprotectants (for example, sucrose and sorbitol) have been reported with higher sweetness and weaker cryoprotective abilities. Therefore, this article comprehensively discusses the new cryopreservation methods and providing comparative study to the conventional frozen storage. Meanwhile, this article sheds light on the freeze induced alterations, such as change in functional and gelling properties. In addition, this article could be helpful for the prolonged frozen storage of food with minimum quality related changes. Meanwhile, it could also improve the commercial values and consumer satisfaction of frozen food as well.

Abstract
Herein, we discuss changes in the emulsifying properties of myofibrillar protein (MP) because of protein denaturation and aggregation from quick-frozen pork patties with multiple fat levels and freeze–thaw (F–T) cycles. Protein denaturation and aggregation were confirmed by the significantly increased surface hydrophobicity, turbidity, and particle size, as well as the significantly decreased solubility and absolute zeta potential, of MPs with increases in fat levels and F–T cycles (p < 0.05). After multiple F–T cycles, the emulsifying activity and emulsion stability indices of all samples were significantly reduced (p < 0.05). The emulsion droplets of MP increased in size, and their distributions were dense and irregular. The results demonstrated that protein denaturation and aggregation due to multiple F–T cycles and fat levels changed the distribution of surface chemical groups and particle sizes of protein, thus affecting the emulsifying properties.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate myofibrillar protein (MFP) denaturation induced by pH changes during freeze-thaw (FT) cycles, and to propose an effective mitigation strategy. Owing to the selective crystallization of Na2HPO4·12H2O and the consequent pH change, a pH change of 3.32 units was observed when the MFP solution were frozen. The surface hydrophobicity, particle size and confocal laser scanning microscopy showed that the protein molecules gradually unfolded and formed larger protein aggregation as the number of FT cycles increases. Additionally, protein degradation, secondary and tertiary structure alterations suggested that the FT cycle could disrupt structural integrity. The addition of cellobiose could maximize the inhibition of pH changes (decrease of ∼0.62 unit), no Na2HPO4·12H2O crystallization was observed by X-ray diffraction. Cellobiose could minimize FT damage to myofibrillar protein, which was closest to the control. Thus, cellobiose can be used as a new and effective cryoprotectant.

Abstract
This study was done to analyze the cryoprotective influence of ovalbumin (OVA) with kappa-carrageenan (KC) in grass carp myofibrillar proteins during frozen storage. Ca2+-ATPase activity of MP was significantly reduced due to protein denaturation and showed a direct association with decreased sulphydryl (SH) contents and tertiary structural properties. Besides that, an increase in carbonyl, surface hydrophobicity, and dityrosine contents was observed. The addition of OVA-KC significantly restricted the decline in Ca2+-ATPase and SH groups, which were further confirmed by the retarded increase in carbonyls. Furthermore, the addition of OVA-KC increased the stability of α-helix contents. Moreover, MP treated with 6% OVA-KC also improved intermolecular interaction forces linked with gelling and water holding properties of MP. Therefore, it can be concluded that OVA-KC could be used as an effective cryoprotectant in fish and related products for preservation and commercialization.
