Effects of different power multi-frequency ultrasound-assisted thawing on the quality characteristics and protein stability of large yellow croaker ( Larimichthys crocea). Food Chem X 2024; 23:101559. [PMID: 39036484 PMCID: PMC11260327 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101559] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the impact of multi-frequency ultrasound-assisted (20/28/40 kHz) thawing (MUAT) at different power levels (195, 220, 245, and 270 W, respectively) on the flesh quality and protein stability of large yellow croakers. Compared with flowing water thawing (FWT) and the other MUAT sample, flesh quality results indicated that the MUAT-220 W significantly reduced (p < 0.05) thawing loss, total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), total free amino acids (FAAs) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS). Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) spectroscopy indicated that MUAT-220 W samples had higher immobilized water content and lower free water content. In addition, the MUAT-220 W sample contained higher sulfhydryl and lower carbonyl contents compared to the FWT sample. Secondary and tertiary structural results of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) showed that MUAT-220 W significantly reduced thawing damage to MPs. Therefore, MUAT-220 W improved the quality and protein stability of the large yellow croaker during the defrosting process.

Novel thawing method of ultrasound-assisted slightly basic electrolyzed water improves the processing quality of frozen shrimp compared with traditional thawing approaches. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2024; 107:106931. [PMID: 38823084 PMCID: PMC11176819 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
Thawing is the primary step in handling frozen aquatic products, which directly determines their end-product quality. This study firstly constructed a novel thawing method of ultrasound-assisted slightly basic electrolyzed water (UST), and its influences on the physicochemical and histological properties of shrimp, as well as the structural of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) in shrimp were evaluated. Results indicated that the UST treatment greatly reduced 48.9 % thawing time of frozen shrimp compared to traditional thawing approaches. Meanwhile, the UST effectively decreased the generation of malondialdehyde (MDA), total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), and carbonyl compounds in the thawed shrimps. In addition, it significantly preserved the elasticity and integrity of muscle fiber. Notably, the UST reduced the damage of thawing to the spatial structures of MPs, thereby greatly keeping the stability of protein. All these favorable changes maintained the water holding capacity (WHC) and quality of shrimp. Therefore, the UST is a promising non-thermal thawing technology for aquatic products.

Effect of protein structure changes during different power ultrasound thawing on emulsification properties of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) myofibrillar protein. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 101:106719. [PMID: 38091741 PMCID: PMC10757250 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2023] [Revised: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/22/2023]
Abstract
The impact of ultrasound thawing (UT) at different power (0 W, 100 W/0.132 W·cm-2, 300 W/1.077 W·cm-2, and 500 W/1.997 W·cm-2, namely WT, UT-100, UT-300, and UT-500) on protein structure, aggregation, and emulsifying properties of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) myofibrillar protein were investigated in the present study. The result showed that the reactive sulfhydryl content, total sulfhydryl content, protein solubility, and absolute potential of UT-300 samples were obviously higher than those of other thawed samples, while the turbidity of UT-300 samples was lower (P < 0.05), which indicated that proper UT power was beneficial to inhibit protein aggregation caused by thawing, while too low (100 W) or too high (500 W) ultrasonic power had poor effect. The Ca2+-ATPase activity and thermal stability of UT-300 samples were much higher than those of other thawed samples (P < 0.05), indicating that UT-300 inhibited myosin denaturation and thermal stability reduction of thawed products. The α-helix content of UT-300 samples was higher than that of other thawed samples, while the β-sheet content was significantly lower than that of other thawed samples (P < 0.05). The fluorescence intensity of UT-300 samples was higher than that of other thawed samples, and the λmax of UT-300 samples and UT-100 samples were lower than that of other thawed samples, which indicated that UT-300 could effectively inhibit the alteration of protein secondary structure and tertiary structure during thawing. The emulsifying activity of UT-300 samples was significantly higher than that of WT samples, and the droplet diameter of UT-300 samples was also lower than that of WT samples (P < 0.05), which indicated that UT-300 inhibited the decrease of emulsifying property during thawing. Overall, moderate ultrasonic power (300 W) could effectively inhibit the protein aggregation and structural changes during thawing, led to the decrease of emulsifying activity.

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.

Individual and interactive effect of ultrasound pre-treatment on drying kinetics and biochemical qualities of food: A critical review. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 92:106261. [PMID: 36516722 PMCID: PMC9755246 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2022.106261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2022] [Revised: 11/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
One of the earliest and most prevalent processing methods to increase the shelf-life of foods is drying. In recent years, there has been an increased demand to improve product quality while lowering processing times, expenses, and energy usage in the drying process. Pre-treatments are therefore effectively used before drying to enhance heat and mass transfer, increase drying efficiency, and lessen degradation of final product quality. When food is dried, changes are expected in its taste, color, texture, and physical, chemical, and microbial properties. This has led to the need for research and development into the creation of new and effective pre-treatment technologies including high-pressure processing, pulsed electric field, ultraviolet irradiation, and ultrasound. Sound waves that have a frequency >20 kHz, which is above the upper limit of the audible frequency range, are referred to as "ultrasound". Ultrasonication (US) is a non-thermal technology, that has mechanical, cavitational, and sponge effects on food materials. Ultrasound pre-treatment enhances the drying characteristics by producing microchannels in the food tissue, facilitating internal moisture diffusion in the finished product, and lowering the barrier to water migration. The goal of ultrasound pre-treatment is to save processing time, conserve energy, and enhance the quality, safety, and shelf-life of food products. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of ultrasound, its mechanism, and how the individual effects of ultrasonic pre-treatment and the interactive effects of ultrasound-assisted technologies affect the drying kinetics, bioactive components, color, textural, and sensory qualities of food. The difficulties that can arise when using ultrasound technology as a drying pretreatment approach, such as inadequate management of heat, the employment of ultrasound at a limited frequency, and the generation of free radicals, have also been explained.

Abstract
Traditional processing methods can no longer meet the demands of consumers for high-quality muscle food. As a green and non-thermal processing technology, ultrasound has the advantage of improving processing efficiency and reducing processing costs. Of these, the positive effect of power ultrasound in the processing of muscle foods is noticeable. Based on the action mechanism of ultrasound, the factors affecting the action of ultrasound are analyzed. On this basis, the effect of ultrasound technology on muscle food quality and its action mechanism and application status in processing operations (freezing-thawing, tenderization, marination, sterilization, drying, and extraction) is discussed. The transient and steady-state effects, mechanical effects, thermal effects, and chemical effects can have an impact on processing operations through complex correlations, such as improving the efficiency of mass and heat transfer. Ultrasound technology has been proven to be valuable in muscle food processing, but inappropriate ultrasound treatment can also have adverse effects on muscle foods. In the future, kinetic models are expected to be an effective tool for investigating the application effects of ultrasound in food processing. Additionally, the combination with other processing technologies can facilitate their intensive application on an industrial level to overcome the disadvantages of using ultrasound technology alone.
