Cava R, Ladero L, Riaguas E, Vidal-Aragón MC. Assessing the Impact of Pomegranate Peel Extract Active Packaging and High Hydrostatic Pressure Processing on Color and Oxidative Stability in Sliced Nitrate/Nitrite-Reduced Iberian Dry-Cured Loins. Foods 2024; 13:360. [PMID: 38338496 PMCID: PMC10855663 DOI: 10.3390/foods13030360] [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: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/20/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Our study aimed to assess the impact of active packaging with pomegranate peel extract (0.06 mg gallic acid eq./cm2) and/or high-pressure treatment (600 MPa, 7 min) on the instrumental color, lipid, and protein oxidation of Iberian dry loins formulated with reduced nitrate/nitrite levels (0, 37.5, and 150 mg/kg) during 100-day refrigerated storage (4 °C). CIE L*a*b* coordinates were measured, and malondialdehyde, carbonyls, and free thiol contents served as markers for lipid and protein oxidation. Active packaging lowered CIE L* (35.4 vs. 34.1) and a* (15.5 vs. 14.5) and increased yellowness (15.6 vs. 16.3) and hue (45.2 vs. 48.4), while pressurization increased CIE L* (33.1 vs. 36.3) and diminished a* values (16.1 vs. 13.9). Ongoing nitrate/nitrite amounts significantly influenced lipid peroxidation, protein carbonyl formation, and free thiol loss. Active packaging and high-pressure processing had varying effects on carbonyl and thiol contents. Neither pressurization nor active packaging impacted malondialdehyde formation. Pressurization enhanced the formation of 4-HNE (503 vs. 697 pg/g). Protein oxidation proved more sensitive to changes, with active packaging offering protection against protein carbonylation (15.4 vs. 14.7 nmol carbonyls/mg protein), while pressurization induced thiol loss (34.3 vs. 28.0 nmol Cys eq./mg protein). This comprehensive understanding provides essential insights for the meat industry, emphasizing the necessity for customized processing conditions to enhance color stability, lipid preservation, and protein integrity in dry-cured loin slices.

Abstract
The colour of meat typically fades as it decays. However, it has been observed that certain vacuum-packaged spoiled hams can maintain a pink colour even when the packaging is bulged. A large amount of Zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP) was found in these hams, compared to fresh red hams or spoiled and grey hams. Combined with high-throughput sequencing and cultural isolation, the potential cultures of Leuconostoc mesenteroides S-13 (LM), Leuconostoc citreum OCLC11 (LC), and Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. IMAU:80679 (LS) were selected based on their ability to produce ZnPP. Subsequently, these cultures were introduced into a fermented sausage model to assess their effect on colour conversion. The analysis of absorption and fluorescent spectra showed that Nitrite sausages contained nitrosyl heme pigment, while bacteria-inoculated sausages were predominantly composed of ZnPP. In addition, the a* value of the LS sausage was close to the Nitrite group at the end of fermentation, significantly higher than control, indicating the effect of bacterial metabolism on the redness. Meanwhile, the Ferrochelatase (FECH) activity of LM, LC and LS groups were 140 ± 13, 113 ± 16 and 201 ± 20 U/g sausage, respectively, providing a potential method on compensating for nitrite/nitrate substitution based on the presence of ZnPP in meat products.

Abstract
Zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP) is the dominant red pigment in nitrate/nitrite-free dry-cured meat products such as Parma ham, and it is considered to be a potential alternative to nitrite/nitrate for reddening dry-cured meat products. Ferroheme and ferriheme dissociated from heme proteins in meat were proposed as substrates to form ZnPP. To elucidate their specific formation mechanism, nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, and azide were used to stable heme in heme proteins. The exogenous hemoglobin derivatives bound with these ligands showed lower heme dissociation compared with exogenous oxyhemoglobin and did not contribute to ZnPP formation. Meanwhile, azide inhibited almost all ZnPP formation by binding to ferriheme, indicating ferriheme dissociation from oxidized heme proteins, predominantly for ZnPP formation. Free ferriheme could not be converted to ZnPP unless it was reduced to ferroheme. Overall, ferriheme dissociated from oxidized heme proteins was the dominant substrate for conversion to ZnPP after re-reduction to ferroheme.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate a pomegranate peel extract (PPE), selected for its level of phytochemical compounds and antioxidant activities, as a nitrite substitute in dry sausages, as well as its effect on lipid and protein oxidative changes and instrumental colour during the drying period (28 days). Of the extraction solvents screened, water: acetone 3:7 (v/v) was the most effective extraction solvent, yielding extracts with the highest content of phenolic compounds, flavonoids and condensed tannins and antioxidant activities (ABTS, DPPH and FRAP). Four batches of dry sausages were produced with different incoming amounts of sodium nitrite (NaNO2) and PPE: 1) 150 ppm NaNO2; 2) 0 ppm NaNO2; 3) 0 ppm NaNO2 + 1% PPE (v/w) and 4) 0 ppm NaNO2 + 2% PPE (v/w). Nitrite removal increased lipid oxidation in uncured dry sausages, while nitrite and PPE caused lower TBA-RS values in cured and PPE treated sausages. During drying, both nitrite and PPE addition significantly decreased carbonyl and thiol contents compared to the uncured dry sausages. A dose-response was found for PPE, with lower carbonyl and thiol concentrations, the higher the level of PPE added. PPE significantly modified instrumental colour coordinates L*a*b* producing significant total colour changes compared to cured dry sausages.

Abstract
A large amount of zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP) is found in nitrite/nitrate-free dry-cured meat products, such as Parma ham, and is known to contribute to the favorable bright red color of the latter. ZnPP is a metalloporphyrin, in which zinc is coordinated, instead of iron, in the porphyrin ring. ZnPP proved to be more stable than heme, and its formation should be favored in dried meat products to improve color without the addition of nitrites or nitrates. Toward that, understanding the mechanisms of formation of ZnPP in nitrite/nitrate-free dry-cured ham would be important. In this lecture, I introduce some of our research group's findings regarding the endogenous and exogenous factors contributing to the formation and distribution of ZnPP in Parma ham and why ZnPP formation is suppressed in common cured meat products.

Nitrite-Free Implications on Consumer Acceptance and the Behavior of Pathogens in Cured Pork Loins. Foods 2022; 11:foods11060796. [PMID: 35327219 PMCID: PMC8948880 DOI: 10.3390/foods11060796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2021] [Revised: 02/26/2022] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Cured pork loins are valued products due to their particular sensory characteristics. These products are usually prepared with nitrite to guarantee adequate color and pathogen control. The use of nitrite in meat products has been criticized due to its potential contribution to carcinogenic N-nitroso-compound formation. The present work aimed to evaluate the effect of eliminating nitrite from the manufacturing of cured loins made with wine- and water-based marinades on the color evaluation of consumers and on the behavior of Clostridium sporogenes, Listeria monocytogenes, and Salmonella. The use of nitrite in processing cured loins resulted in a color considered adequate by more than 50% of the consumers. When nitrite was not used, the color was described mainly as weak. The hedonic evaluation of cured loins did not reflect the color evaluation. The samples with a weak and an adequate color had similar hedonic evaluations. The present work did not allow us to infer the potential interest in injecting S. xylosus into meat to prepare cured loins. The use of nitrite did not affect the survival of Cl. sporogenes, L. monocytogenes, or Salmonella. The reduction in the aw was the primary determinant influencing pathogen survival. The production of nitrite-free cured loins seems possible once the control of pathogens can be achieved. However, the product will have a weaker color. Consumers appreciate sensory aspects other than color, which, combined with the positive impact of the “additive-free” claim, can support the possibility of producing cured loins without nitrite.

Abstract
Zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP)-forming food-grade lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were screened from various sources for their ability to improve the color of meat products. The effects of salt and nitrite on the ZnPP-forming ability of these bacteria were also investigated. Finally, these bacteria were applied in salt-added minced meat to assess their ability to improve the color. Twenty-five LAB were screened for their ZnPP-forming ability in pork. Most of the strains exhibited maximum growth anaerobically in 3% salt at 30 °C and grew well at pH 5.5 and 6.5. Moreover, 3% salt slightly retarded ZnPP formation; however, nitrite completely inhibited ZnPP formation in all the ZnPP-forming LAB. Thirteen LAB (avoiding duplication and non-food-grade) could form ZnPP in salt-added minced meat, resulting in improvement of the bright red color, high ZnPP autofluorescence, and increased fluorescence intensity. Finally, considering the safety, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris, and Leuconostoc lactis were suggested as promising candidates to improve the color of meat products.

Abstract
Four batches of Iberian dry-cured loins were manufactured with reduced ingoing amounts of both nitrate and nitrite: 150 mg/kg, 75 mg/kg, 37.5 mg/kg and 0 mg/kg. The effect of reducing or removing nitrate and nitrite and time of drying on physicochemical parameters (moisture, pH, water activity, chloride and residual nitrate and nitrite contents), instrumental colour and nitrosylmyoglobin content, lipid and protein oxidation and on microbiological counts (L. monocytogenes, aerobic mesophilic bacteria and moulds and yeast counts) were investigated. Lipid oxidation increased during the drying process being higher for non-added NO3-/NO2-, meanwhile protein oxidation affected also those with 37.5 and 75 mg/kg of NO3-/NO2- added. The removal of these additives affected instrumental colour coordinates and total colour changes showing that the variation of coloration would be perceptible by the consumer. Nitrosylmyoglobin content was significantly higher for NO3-/NO2- added loins. Reduced levels of these additives up to 37.5 mg/kg did not show significant effects on their physico-chemical, microbiological and colour.

Abstract
In this study effects of a novel high barrier multilayer polyamide film containing dispersed nanoclays (PAN) on the stability of vacuum packed dry-cured ham were investigated during 90days refrigerated storage in comparison with non-modified multilayer polyamide (PA) and a commercial high barrier film. Characteristic bands of the mineral in FT-IR spectra confirmed the presence of nanoclays in PAN, enhancing oxygen transmission barrier properties and UV protection. Packaging in PAN films did not originate significant changes on colour or lipid oxidation during prolonged storage of vacuum-packed dry-cured ham. Larger oxygen transmission rates in PA films caused changes in CIE b* during refrigerated storage. Ham quality was not affected by light exposition during 90days and only curing had a significant benefit on colour and TBARS, being cured samples more stable during storage in all the packages used. Packaging of dry-cured ham in PAN was equivalent to commercial high barrier films.

Abstract
This study investigates the potential of producing red coloured dry fermented sausages without the addition of nitrite and/or nitrate. Therefore, the formation of zinc protoporphyrin IX (Zn(II)PPIX) as naturally occurring pigment, and the interrelated protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) and heme content were evaluated during nitrite-free dry fermented sausage production at different pH conditions. Zn(II)PPIX was only able to form in dry fermented sausages at pH conditions higher than approximately 4.9. Additionally, the presence of Zn(II)PPIX increased drastically at the later phase of the production process (up to day 177), confirming that in addition to pH, time is also a crucial factor for its formation. Similarly, PPIX also accumulated in the meat products at increased pH conditions and production times. In contrast, a breakdown of heme was observed. This breakdown was more gradual and independent of pH and showed no clear relationship with the formed amounts of Zn(II)PPIX and PPIX. A statistically significant relationship between Zn(II)PPIX formation and product redness was established.
