[PMID: 39213733 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.141005] [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: 06/24/2024] [Revised: 08/06/2024] [Accepted: 08/24/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Rational regulation of pH and xanthan gum (XG) concentration has the potential to modulate interactions among macromolecules and enhance 3D printability. This study investigated non-covalent interactions between XG and other components within compound proteins emulsion gel systems across varying pH values (4.0-8.0) and XG concentrations (0-1 wt%) and systematically explored impacts of gelation properties and structural features on 3D printability. The results of rheological and structural features indicated that pH-regulated non-covalent interactions were crucial for maintaining structural stability of emulsion gels with the addition of XG. The 3D printability of emulsion gels would be significantly improved through moderate depletion flocculation produced when XG concentration was 0.75 wt% at the pH 6.0. Mechanical properties like viscosity exhibited a strongly negative correlation with 3D printability, whereas structural stability showed a significantly positive correlation. Overall, this study provided theoretical insights for the development of emulsion gels for 3D printing by regulating non-covalent interactions.

Integrating multiple microstructure and water distribution visual analysis to reveal the moisture release and quality deterioration of precooked beef during freezing-thawing-reheating processes.

Abstract
Prepared dishes are becoming an increasingly important part of diets, while most studies focus on the flavor. In this study, the moisture loss induced by structure changes of precooked beef during freezing-thawing-reheating process was investigated. The myowater trapped and released by 'myenteric channels' and 'water reservoir' were observed by integrated multiple microstructure and water distribution visual analysis. X-ray results showed an increase in total porosity and the close porosity transfer to open porosity during freezing-thawing-reheating. The weight loss of frozen-reheated (FR) and frozen-thawed-reheated (FTR) samples was 6.34% and 7.69%, respectively. Although freezing-thawing did not significantly affect the moisture loss, magnetic resonance image (MRI) showed that the 'free water' temporarily existed in interfibrous spaces after thawing and leaked out during reheating. Directly reheating avoided the myowater redistribution and muscle extension mediated, which reduced moisture loss. These results provide a reference for quality control of prepared dishes during the industrial supply chain.

Abstract
In order to investigate the effects of multi-frequency ultrasound-assisted immersion freezing (MUIF) on the meat quality of Macrobrachium rosenbergii, tail meat was subjected to different MUIF treatments respectively, namely 20 + 40 kHz (MUIF-20 + 40), 20 + 60 kHz (MUIF-20 + 60), 40 + 60 kHz (MUIF-40 + 60) and 20 + 40 + 60 kHz (MUIF-20 + 40 + 60), and the immersion freezing (IF) as control. Results showed that average diameter of ice crystals was 28 μm in IF, and that was only 8 μm in MUIF-20 + 40 + 60. When compared to IF, MUIF alleviated oxidative deterioration of lipids and proteins, but only at higher ultrasound frequency (MUIF-40 + 60; MUIF-20 + 40 + 60). Carbonyl content of MUIF-20 + 40 + 60 was only 40% of that in IF. Similarly, protein denaturation was inhibited in MUIF (except for MUIF-20 + 40). Transmission electron microscopy showed greater distortion of the ultrastructural components in IF, MUIF-40 + 60, and MUIF-20 + 40 + 60, suggested by bended Z-line. In conclusion, MUIF can be an effective strategy to mitigate mechanical damage and protein deterioration in the meat of Macrobrachium rosenbergii.

Abstract
Ice fractions and water states in partially frozen muscle foods greatly affect their quality. In the study, a variable temperature nuclear magnetic resonance (VT-NMR) with a liquid nitrogen temperature control system was employed to in situ investigate the relationship between ice fractions and temperatures and changes in water states during partial freezing and thawing of pork and shrimp. Results indicated that changes in ice fractions ranging from -2 ∼ -20 °C could be divided into 3 stages including slow increase, random leap and remarkable leap. More serious damages to the structures related to immobile water occurred in shrimp than in pork, and partial freezing also caused deterioration in muscle fibres related to free water. Additionally, -2 ∼ -3 °C and - 3.5 °C were the appropriate partial freezing temperatures for pork and shrimp, respectively. Therefore, the VT-NMR method possessed great potential for fundamental studies and applications of partial freezing of muscle foods.

Abstract
Limited studies are available assessing the impact of extended ageing on lamb eating quality of a wide range of cuts. From lamb (n = 153) and young mutton (n = 40) carcasses, seven cuts (eye of rack, eye of shoulder, knuckle, loin, outside, rump and topside) were collected and aged based on three ageing times (5, 14 or 21 days). Additionally, residual glycogen was determined from the loin at the corresponding ageing time. Untrained consumers assessed samples for tenderness, juiciness, flavour liking and overall liking. Increasing ageing time from 5 to 14 or 21 days significantly improved cut eating quality; however, ageing beyond 14 days showed no additional benefit. The ageing effect reduced when corrected for pH and temperature measurements, confirming ageing can improve eating quality when pH and temperature variation exists. Loin residual glycogen had no impact on eating quality at each ageing time. Our results confirm the importance of establishing optimum ageing times for cuts to ensure the highest consumer acceptability.

Abstract
The freezing point (FP) is an important quality indicator of the superchilled meat. Currently, the potential of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) for predicting beef FP as affected by multiple freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles was explored. Correlation analysis revealed that the FP had a negative correlation with the proportion of bound water (P21) and a positive correlation with the proportion of immobilized water (P22). Moreover, the optimal wavelengths were selected by principal component analysis (PCA). Principal component regression (PCR) and partial least squares regression (PLSR) models were successfully developed based on the optimal wavelengths for predicting FP with determination coefficient in prediction (RP2) of 0.76, 0.76 and root mean square errors in prediction (RMSEP) of 0.12, 0.12, respectively. Additionally, PLSR based on full wavelengths was established for predicting P21 with RP2 of 0.80 and RMSEP of 0.67, and PLSR based on the optimal wavelengths was established for predicting P22 with RP2 of 0.87 and RMSEP of 0.66. The results show the potential of hyperspectral technology to predict the FP and moisture distribution of meat as a nondestructive method.

Abstract
This study investigated the relationship of carcass characteristics such as hot carcass weight and back fat thickness (BFT) and the pH of semispinalis capitis (SC) with the cooking loss (CL) of pork shoulder butt and the CL and Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF) of belly. BFT was correlated with the CLs of the butt slices (r s = -0.30) and the belly slices (r s = -0.27 to -0.32). The pH of the SC muscle showed a correlation with the CLs of the butt slices (r s = -0.45) and the belly slices of the 6th and 11th thoracic vertebrae (r s = -0.28 to -0.33). Additionally, the correlations (r s = 0.62 to 0.77) were observed in the CLs among the belly slices. However, the WBSF of the belly slices did not show correlations with others. Therefore, the pH of the SC muscle as well as BFT can be used to obtain information on the CL of shoulder butts and bellies in carcasses.

J Food Sci 2024; 89:6174-6188. [PMID: 39175174 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.17304] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 06/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/24/2024]
Abstract
The complex composition of braised pork, including lean meat, pigskin, and fat, makes it difficult for sensory evaluation of its texture properties. This study investigated the correlation between sensory texture attributes and physicochemical properties to achieve an objective and comprehensive evaluation of the texture of braised pork. Sensory analysis demonstrated that the overall texture acceptability of braised pork was significantly and negatively influenced by sensory texture attributes (including sensory hardness, chewiness, and toughness), while it was positively impacted by sensory adhesiveness, softness, and juiciness. Shear force and texture profile analysis (TPA) variables, reflecting mastication behavior, were used to characterize the textural properties of braised pork. They were closely related to water distribution, with a higher proportion of immobilized water (P21), indicating a higher water holding capacity and a more tender texture. Correlation analysis between sensory texture attributes and physicochemical properties through partial least squares regression further revealed significant associations between shear force, TPA variables, and sensory texture attributes. Moreover, the proportion of immobilized water (P21) significantly and negatively affected sensory hardness and chewiness, whereas the proportion of free water (P22) significantly influenced sensory toughness. Sensory texture attributes could be well predicted by the physicochemical properties by projecting test samples onto calibration models established by known samples. Therefore, a combination of sensory and instrumental measures can reliably reflect the texture properties of braised pork. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The combination of sensory and instrumental methods is an effective strategy to accurately and objectively evaluate the texture properties of braised pork, which overcomes the limitations caused by the complexity of the composition and texture traits of braised pork. The accurate evaluation and standardization of texture properties is an important premise for the repeatable and stable cooking of traditional braised pork. Furthermore, this research method and findings can also be applied to guide the procedural optimization of smart appliances (e.g., induction cookers) for cooking braised pork.

Abstract
Sucrose shows the potential of stabilizing foam system. This study systematically evaluated the mechanism by which sucrose improved foaming properties and mechanical characteristics of foams stabilized by soy protein isolate/gellan gum/guar gum ternary complex. Results showed that sucrose could bond to the surface of ternary complex or self-aggregate within the continuous phase, resulting in the neutralization of charges (nearly zero) and an increase in particle size (up to 62.54 μm). The addition of 30 % sucrose reinforced foam system with an increased foamability (305.99 %) but a longer foaming time (10 min) during foaming process. Moreover, the mechanical characteristics, including hardness, elastic strength (Power-law constant) and solid characteristic (frequency exponent), were also significantly enhanced to 1.26 N, 354.7956 and 2.5873, respectively, which were 1.65, 1.94 and 1.11 times than those of foams without sucrose. The microscopic mechanism lied in the reduced water freedom degree caused by sucrose, which generated a compact structural network around bubbles for providing a stable and stiff structure to foams. These findings will provide clear theoretical guidance for regulating mechanical characteristics of aerated foods by using sucrose as structural building blocks.

Abstract
The gel properties and molecular conformation of Spanish mackerel myofibrillar protein (MP) induced by soy protein isolate-inulin conjugates (SPI-inulin conjugates) were investigated. The addition of SPI-inulin conjugates significantly enhanced the quality of the protein gel. An analysis of different additives was conducted to assess their impact on the gel strength, texture, water-holding capacity (WHC), water distribution, intermolecular force, dynamic rheology, Raman spectrum, fluorescence spectrum, and microstructure of MP. The results demonstrated a substantial improvement in the strength and water retention of the MP gel with the addition of the conjugate. Compared with the control group (MP), the gel strength increased from 35.18 g·cm to 41.90 g·cm, and WHC increased from 36.80% to 52.67% with the inclusion of SPI-inulin conjugates. The hydrogen bond content was notably higher than that of other groups, and hydrophobic interaction increased from 29.30% to 36.85% with the addition of SPI-inulin conjugates. Furthermore, the addition of the conjugate altered the secondary structure of the myofibrillar gel, with a decrease in α-helix content from 62.91% to 48.42% and an increase in β-sheet content from 13.40% to 24.65%. Additionally, the SPI-inulin conjugates led to a significant reduction in the endogenous fluorescence intensity of MP. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) results revealed a substantial increase in the Rq value from 8.21 nm to 20.21 nm. Adding SPI and inulin in the form of conjugates is an effective method to improve the gel properties of proteins, which provides important guidance for the study of adding conjugates to surimi products. It has potential application prospects in commercial surimi products.

Adenosine monophosphate boosts the cryoprotection of ultrasound-assisted freezing to frozen surimi: Insights into protein structures and gelling behaviors. Food Chem 2024; 450:139343. [PMID: 38631212 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139343] [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: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024]
Abstract
Ultrasound-assisted freezing (UAF) is a clean technique for meat cryoprotections; however, its effectiveness is still limited compared to conventional cryoprotectants, e.g., sugars, polyols, especially at high dosages. To resolve this problem, a synergistic cryoprotection strategy was developed in this study. Adenosine monophosphate (AMP), an adenosine-type food additive, was introduced into frozen surimi at a considerably reduced content (0.08%), yet substantially enhanced the efficiency of UAF to comparable levels of commercial cryoprotectant (4% sucrose with 4% sorbitol). Specifically, UAF/AMP treatment retarded denaturation of surimi myofibrillar protein (MP) during 60-day frozen storage, as evidenced by its increased solubility, Ca2+-ATPase activity, sulfhydryl content, declined surface hydrophobicity, particle size, and stabilized protein conformation. Gels of UAF/AMP-treated surimi also demonstrated more stabilized microstructures, uniform water distributions, enhanced mechanical properties and water-holding capacities. This study provided a feasible approach to boost the cryoprotective performance of UAF, thus expanding its potential applications in frozen food industry.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of early administration of ciprofloxacin (CIP) on Xueshan chickens, in this study Xueshan chickens were measured for growth performance, tested for drug residues, evaluated for meat quality, and muscle metabolism changes were explored using a non-target metabolomics approach. Experimental findings revealed that early CIP use did not significantly impact the overall growth rate of Xueshan chickens (p > 0.05). However, notable alterations in meat quality were observed: the CIP-treated group exhibited a significant decrease in muscle pH (pH1 and pH24) and a marked increase in drip loss and moisture content (p > 0.05). No CIP residues were detected in muscle tissue. Untargeted metabolomics analyses unveiled significant alterations in the metabolic profile of market-age chickens following CIP treatment. Both functional enrichment and metabolic network analyses indicated significant effects on the ko01120 (microbial metabolism in diverse environments) and ko00350 (tyrosine metabolism) pathways, implying that CIP treatment may influence chicken meat quality by modulating microbial communities and amino acid metabolism. This study provides a crucial foundation for understanding the impact of antibiotics on meat quality and metabolism in poultry production, offering scientific insights for optimizing antibiotic-use strategies and safeguarding poultry product quality.

Assessment of water relaxometry of meat under different ageing processes using time domain nuclear magnetic resonance relaxometry. Food Res Int 2024; 190:114566.

Abstract
This study assessed water relaxometry of beef exposed to different ageing techniques by examining the inner and surface regions using time-domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR) relaxometry. Beef strip loins were aged under vacuum (Wet), under vacuum using moisture absorbers (Abs), under vacuum using moisture absorbers and with mechanical tenderisation (AbsTend), or without any packaging (Dry). The ageing technique significantly influenced various meat parameters, including dehydration, total loss, and the moisture content of the meat surface. The transverse (T2) relaxation times provided a more sensitive indicator of the changes in meat water relaxometry than the longitudinal (T1) relaxation times. The Dry samples exhibited distinct differences in the T2 signals between the surface and inner regions of the meat. In particular, for the inner region, there were significant differences in signal areas between the Wet and Dry samples, and the Abs and AbsTend samples were positioned closely together between the Dry and Wet samples. The principal component analysis supported these findings: it indicated some differentiation among the ageing techniques in the score plot, but the differentiation was more pronounced when analysing the surface region. Additionally, there was a strong correlation between dehydration and the T2 values, leading to a clustering of the samples based on the ageing technique. The overlap between the Abs and AbsTend samples, situated between the Dry and Wet samples, suggests the potential of these treatments to produce meat with properties that are intermediate to Wet and Dry meat. Furthermore, tenderisation did not lead to greater dehydration.

Abstract
Drying, as a critical step in the production of air-dried beef, has a direct impact on the quality of the final product. Innovatively, a composite system incorporating contact ultrasound (CU) and infrared radiation (IR) as auxiliary measures within a hot air drying (HAD) framework was built in this research, and the effects of these techniques on the drying kinetics, protein denaturation, and moisture transformation of air-dried beef were investigated. In comparison to HAD treatment, the integrated CU and IR (CU-IRD) system displayed marked enhancements in heat and moisture transport efficiency, thereby saving 36.84% of time expenditure and contributing favorably to the improved moisture distribution of the end-product. This was mainly ascribed to the denaturation of myosin induced by IR thermal effect and the micro-channel produced by CU sponge effect, thus increasing T2 relaxation time and the proportion of free water. In conclusion, the composite system solved the problem of surface hardening and reduces hardness and chewiness of air-dried beef by 40.42% and 45.25% respectively, but inevitably increased the energy burden by 41.60%.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to independently validate a calibrated commercial handheld near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic device and test its repeatability over time using phenotypically diverse populations of Australian lamb. Validation testing in eight separate data sub-groups (n = 1591 carcasses overall) demonstrated that the NIR device had moderate precision (R2 = 0.4-0.64, RMSEP = 0.70-1.22%) but fluctuated in accuracy between experimental site demonstrated by variable slopes (0.50-0.94) and biases (-0.86-0.02). The repeatability experiment (n = 10 carcasses) showed that time to scan post quartering affected NIR measurement from 0 to 24 h (P < 0.001). On average, NIR IMF% was 0.97% lower (P < 0.001) at 24 h (4.01% ± 0.166), compared to 0 h. There was no difference (P > 0.05) between Time 0 and 1 h or Time 0 and 4 h or between replicate scans within each time point. This study demonstrated the SOMA NIR device could predict lamb chemical IMF% with moderate precision and accuracy, however additional work is required to understand how loin preparation, blooming and surface hydration affect NIR measurement.

Abstract
To better understanding the effects of ultrasonic marination on the porcine tissue, the moisture migration and microstructure were investigated in this study. Additionally, the acoustic field distribution was analysis using COMSOL Multiphysics. The low-filed NMR results demonstrated that ultrasonic curing induced a leftward shift in T21 and a rightward shift in T22, accompanied by a significant reduction in A22, thereby enhancing the water-holding capacity of pork. The SEM and TEM observation showed that the presence of larger interstitial gaps between muscle fibers facilitated the diffusion of NaCl. The simulation analysis revealed that the acoustic field at 26.8 kHz showed minimal standing wave effects and more pronounced cavitation, which was the main reason for the best curing effect at this frequency. The scale-up test showed the NaCl content in pork reached 1% after ultrasound curing, indicating the potential application of ultrasonic marination technology in domestic refrigerators.

Abstract
In the current study, the preservation effect of plasma-activated water (PAW), coconut exocarp flavonoids (CF) and their combination on golden pompano fillets during refrigerated storage was investigated with emphasize on the treating sequence. PAW effectively inactivated spoilage bacteria and inhibited total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) increase, while boosted the TBARS and carbonyl values. PAW+CF exerted synergistic effect on extending the period before total bacterial count and TVB-N content reaching acceptance limit than PAW or CF alone (P < 0.05). In addition, their combined treatment effectively reduced fillets discoloration and texture deterioration. Simultaneously, lipid and protein oxidation were significantly inhibited, which was comparable to CF. It was indicated that the treatment sequence of PAW and CF profoundly impact the preservation effect. Specifically, prior CF marinating followed by PAW was more effective than the opposite sequence. Thus, combination of CF followed by PAW served as promising technique for fish fillets preservation.

Abstract
Relationships between texture measurements and meat water properties were investigated in raw intact broiler breast fillets with the wooden breast (WB) condition. Texture measurements included subjective WB scores and blunt Meullenet-Owens Razor Shear (BMORS). Water properties were determined with low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR). Spearman correlation was used to estimate relationships between WB scores and water properties, while Pearson correlation was used for relationships between BMORS force and water properties. LF-NMR measurements exhibited 3 water components: protein-associated or hydration water T2b, intra-myofibrillar water or immobilized water T21, and extra-myofibrillar water or free water T22 in chicken breast meat. Significant and strong Spearman correlations were found between the WB scores and T21 time constant, the abundance (normalized areas) of T22, and the proportion of T21 and T22 (rs > 0.60, P < 0.001). Strong Pearson correlations (r = 0.72) were noted only between the T21 time constant and BMORS force. These results demonstrate that water may contribute to the specific texture characteristics measured with subjective WB scoring (palpable hardness and rigidity) and BMORS (hardness and share force) in raw broiler breast fillets with the WB condition.

[PMID: 38909163 PMCID: PMC11193798 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-65338-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Use of brown seaweed (Ecklonia maxima) as a nutraceutical source in indigenous chicken diets is limited by high dietary fibre levels. Inoculating seaweeds with oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) spawn (OMS) could enhance the utility of the spent mushroom substrate (SMS). This study investigated the effect of feeding incremental levels of brown seaweed SMS on growth performance, physiological responses, and meat quality parameters in Boschveld roosters. A total of 324, 4-week-old Boschveld roosters were weighed and randomly allotted to 36 pens (9 birds per pen) to produce six replicates per dietary treatment. The diets were formulated as follows: a standard grower diet (CON); and CON containing 150 g/kg of brown seaweed inoculated with OMS at 0 (SMS0), 20 (SMS20), 30 (SMS30), 40 (SMS40) and 50% (SMS50). Birds fed diet CON had the least feed intake (p < 0.05) than all the other SMS treatment levels in weeks 7, 8, 12, 14 and 15. Diet SMS40 promoted higher (p < 0.05) body weight gain (BWG) than CON in weeks 6, 7, 9 and 14. Gain-to-feed ratio linearly increased in weeks 7 [R2 = 0.288; p = 0.010], 11 [R2 = 0.581, p = 0.0001] and 14 [R2 = 0.389, p = 0.004], respectively. Quadratic responses (p < 0.05) were observed for BWG in week 5, white blood cells, heterophils, platelets, lymphocytes, monocytes, and relative spleen and large intestine weights as OMS levels increased. Linear increases were recorded for slaughter [R2 = 0.197, p = 0.017] and breast weights [R2 = 0.197, p = 0.020] as OMS levels increased. Diet SMS0 promoted higher (p < 0.05) relative caeca weights than the CON and SMS treatment groups. Neither quadratic nor linear responses (p > 0.05) were observed for breast meat quality parameters. In conclusion, feeding brown seaweed SMS improved growth performance and slaughter weight, altered some blood parameters and internal organs, without affecting breast meat quality of Boschveld roosters. Based on the quadratic response for BWG, the optimum OMS level was deduced at 20% in a brown seaweed-based Boschveld rooster diet.

Abstract
Because substantial numbers of Chinese consumers are prepared to pay for tender and quality lamb, meat quality traits are becoming more relevant for breeding programs for Chinese sheep breeds. The current study estimated heritabilities and genetic correlations for 13 meat quality traits recorded on lamb loins from Hu sheep. Heritability estimates ranged from 0.04 ± 0.06 for meat redness at 45 min to 0.57 ± 0.10 for drip loss, with most of the meat quality traits having moderate heritabilities. Positive genetic correlations were observed among meat color traits. Intramuscular fat (IMF) was genetically correlated with most meat quality traits, indicating that increasing IMF can favor meat pH, color, and tenderness, but would lead to increased cooking loss. Direct selection to increase IMF of loins is recommended to be included in breeding programs for Hu sheep, as it was more efficient than indirect selection on the other meat quality traits. The genetic parameters presented in this preliminary study provide valuable genetic information needed to design a breeding program aimed at improving the quality of lamb meat from Hu sheep.

Effects of different polysaccharide colloids on the structure and physicochemical properties of peanut protein and wheat gluten composite system under extrusion. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 272:132773.

Abstract
The structure and physicochemical properties of the complex system of peanut protein and gluten with different concentrations (0 %, 0.5 %, 1 %, and 2 %) of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) or sodium alginate (SA) under high-moisture extrusion were studied. The water absorption index and low-field nuclear magnetic resonance showed that adding 0.5 % SA could significantly improve the water uniformity of peanut protein extrudates, while the increase in water absorption was not significant. The texture properties showed that adding CMC or SA increased the hardness, vertical shearing force, and parallel shearing force of the system. Furthermore, adding 0.5 % SA increased approximately 33 % and 75.2 % of the tensile distance and strength of the system, respectively. The secondary structure showed that CMC or SA decreased the proportion of α-helix, β-turn, and random coil, while increased β-sheet proportion. The results of hydrophobicity, unextractable protein, and endogenous fluorescence revealed that CMC and SA reduced the surface hydrophobicity of the system and caused fluorescence quenching in the system. Additionally, it was found that CMC generally increased the free sulfhydryl group content, while SA exhibited the opposite effect.

Abstract
Physico-chemical properties of fish flesh are reliable predictors of fillet quality and nutritional value. In our study, the age-related variations of the chemical composition, pH, water activity (aw), water holding capacity (WHC), color and texture analysis, protein thermal stability, myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), glycogen content, protein oxidation and protein profiles were investigated in Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout) fillet. The results revealed that protein denaturation temperatures (Tmax1 and Tmax2) decreased by 2 % and 11.6 % depending on fish age. Tmax1 and Tmax2 values in the same groups were raised 71 % at 11 months' fish and this increase was 58 % at 23 months' fish. An age-related reduction by 66.6 % and 31.25 % was noticed for protein oxidation markers sulfhydryl groups and disulfide bonds. MFI value increased by 86.6 % connected with age. The characteristics of fish meat quality are complex and are influenced by various factors that affect the degree of freshness of the product and its acceptance in the market. Taking into account the different demands of the consumer, this study has shown that age at slaughter has an impact on final product quality and that the recommended age at slaughter, taking into account market weight, positively affects meat quality.

Abstract
The global increase in demand for meat leads to substantial quantities of by-products, including edible offal from both wild and domesticated animals raised for diversified consumption products within an agricultural framework. Information on the nutritional value of offal is scattered and limited. This review aims to synthesize scientific publications on the potential of offal as a source of nutrients and bioactive substances in human diets. The literature review included publications available in ISI Web of Science and Google Scholar published between 2014 and 2024. Findings indicate that edible offal is characterized by a nutrient concentration often surpassing that found in skeletal muscle. This review discusses the yield of edible offal and explores factors influencing human consumption. Selected factors affecting the nutritional value of offal of various animals and the importance of individual nutrients in ensuring the proper functioning of the human body were analyzed. The optimal use of offal in processing and catering can significantly benefit aspects of human life, including diet quality, food security, and conservation of natural resources.

Abstract
Traditionally, tenderness has been assessed through shear force testing, which is inherently destructive, the accuracy is easily affected, and it results in considerable sample wastage. Although this technology has some drawbacks, it is still the most effective detection method currently available. In light of these drawbacks, non-destructive testing techniques have emerged as a preferred alternative, promising greater accuracy, efficiency, and convenience without compromising the integrity of the samples. This paper delves into applying five advanced non-destructive testing technologies in the realm of meat tenderness assessment. These include near-infrared spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, Raman spectroscopy, airflow optical fusion detection, and nuclear magnetic resonance detection. Each technology is scrutinized for its respective strengths and limitations, providing a comprehensive overview of their current utility and potential for future development. Moreover, the integration of these techniques with the latest advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technology is explored. The fusion of AI with non-destructive testing offers a promising avenue for the development of more sophisticated, rapid, and intelligent systems for meat tenderness evaluation. This integration is anticipated to significantly enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the quality assessment in the meat industry, ensuring a higher standard of safety and nutritional value for consumers. The paper concludes with a set of technical recommendations to guide the future direction of non-destructive, AI-enhanced meat tenderness detection.

Abstract
A combined pretreatment method of "low temperature-ultrasound-papain" (LTUP) was proposed to remove the purine of pork loins. Compared with untreated pork loin, under optimal conditions (temperature 58 °C, ultrasound density 100 W/cm2, and papain concentration 0.085%), the purine removal rate of treated pork loin could reach 59.29 ± 1.39%. The meat quality of pork loin treated with the LTUP method such as hardness and chewiness decreased by 58.37% and 64.38%, respectively, and the in vitro protein digestibility was increased by 19.64%; the cooking loss was decreased by 15.45%, compared with the simulated household blanching process (HT). In view of the high purine removal rate, the losses of free amino acids and soluble peptides were acceptable and reasonable. SEM and LF-NMR results showed that low temperature and ultrasound combined with papain treatment opened a channel for purine transfer and promoted purine dissolution by affecting the protein structure of pork loin. In addition, the migration of water within the muscle tissue was also related to purine removal. In summary, LTUP is recommended as an efficient and green way for the meat industry to remove purine.

Abstract
The impact of various field strength (2, 3, 4 kV/cm) and treatment time (60s and 90s) combinations on NaCl content and diffusion coefficient of beef were evaluated in the current study. Weight change, water content, water holding capacity, and texture of beef after brining were also explored. The results demonstrated pulsed electric field (PEF) pre-treatment significantly increased NaCl uptake when the brining time was 150 min (P < 0.05). The maximum NaCl content increased by 19.50% and the diffusion coefficient increased by 58.50%. Relatively mild PEF (60s) could improve beef qualities, but longer treatment time (90s) was detrimental to these qualities. Meanwhile, more complete myofibrillar structure and lower lipid oxidation extent were observed in the samples treated by PEF, contributing to the higher a* values. In conclusion, short processing time (60s) and high field strength (4 kV/cm) treatment is a potential strategy for meat brining acceleration and quality improvement in practical industrial production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postmortem muscle moisture loss leads to a decrease in carcass weight and can adversely impact overall meat quality. Therefore, it is critical to investigate water holding capacity (WHC) to enhance meat quality. Current research has primarily focused on examining the correlation between signaling molecules and meat quality in relation to the glycolysis effect on muscle WHC. But there exists a significant knowledge gap regarding the mechanism of WHC in Jersey cattle-yak meat. RESULTS Jersey cattle-yak meat pH decreased and then increased during postmortem aging. Lactate content, cooking loss, pressing loss, drip loss and centrifuging loss of Jersey cattle-yak meat increased and then decreased during postmortem aging. The glycogen content of Jersey cattle-yak meat was significantly higher than that of yak meat at 6-120 h, being 8.40% higher than that of yak meat at 120 h. The activity of key glycolytic enzymes hexokinase (HK), pyruvate kinase (PK), phosphofructokinase (PFK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in Jersey cattle-yak meat was lower than that in yak meat. Correlation analysis showed that Jersey cattle-yak meat WHC was positively correlated with the activity of HK, PK, PFK and LDH. CONCLUSIONS The WHC of Jersey cattle-yak meat was higher than that of Gannan yak meat, and it was significantly positively correlated with the activity of key enzymes of the glycolytic signaling pathway. Therefore, the glycolysis rate can be reduced by inhibiting enzyme activity to improve Jersey cattle-yak meat WHC and meat quality. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is a novel non-thermal technology with significant potential for use in meat processing to prolong shelf life. The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of CAP treatment on the natural microbiota and quality traits of pork stored for 8 days at 4 °C. CAP treatment was applied by employing piezoelectric direct discharge technology to treat pork samples for 0, 3, 6, and 9 min. Reductions of approximately 0.8-1.7 log CFU/g were observed in total viable counts (TVC) and Pseudomonas spp. levels for CAP treatments longer than 3 min, immediately after treatment. A storage study revealed that CAP-treated pork (>6 min) had significantly lower levels of TVC, Pseudomonas spp., and Enterobacteriaceae throughout storage. Regarding quality traits, CAP application for longer than 3 min significantly increased water retention and yellowness and decreased meat redness compared to untreated pork. However, other parameters such as pH, tenderness, and lightness exhibited no statistically significant differences between untreated and CAP-treated pork. Lipid oxidation levels were higher only for the 9-min treatment compared to untreated pork. Our results revealed that CAP is a promising technology that can extend the microbiological shelf life of pork during refrigeration storage.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of static magnetic field-assisted thawing (SMAT) at varying intensities (0, 1, 2, and 3 mT) on the quality, water status, and myofibrillar protein (MP) characteristics of frozen beef steaks. The thawing times of SMAT-1, 2, and 3 treatments could be shortened by approximately 10.9 %, 20.0 %, and 8.5 %, respectively, compared to the control. The results indicated that SMAT treatment significantly decreased thawing loss, maintained color stability, and reduced the degree of lipid oxidation in beef steaks compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance results confirmed that SMAT treatment enhanced the water-holding capacity of muscle. Furthermore, SMAT-2 treatment protected the muscle microstructure, decreased carbonyl content, and increased total sulfhydryl content (P < 0.05) compared to the control group. In conclusion, SMAT treatment effectively improved the beef quality and the characteristics of MP after thawing, especially in 2 mT.

Abstract
Nowadays, the global animal industry faces considerable challenges in securing sufficient feed resources. Responding to consumer demands for reduced use of antibiotics in animal nutrition, better animal welfare status, and reduced impact on the environment, there is an increased urgency to develop innovative functional feeds with a reduced environmental footprint and the ability to improve meat quality and safety. In an effort to explore innovative feed ingredients for growing pig diets, the combined dietary supplementation of Tenebrio molitor larvae and chitosan was investigated. An experimental trial was performed with 48 weaned pigs (34 days of life; mixed sex) that were randomly assigned to four treatment groups (with six males and six females each): Group A (control), Group B (supplemented with T. molitor larvae at 10%), Group C (supplemented with chitosan at 0.05%), and Group D (supplemented with both ingredients at 10% and 0.05%, respectively). On the 42nd day of the experimental trial, samples of blood, feces, and carcass parts were taken for analysis. The results indicated that the insect larvae meal significantly improved (p < 0.05) overall performance, increased (p < 0.05) blood red blood cell content, increased meat phenolic content (p < 0.05), improved meat oxidative stability (p < 0.05), and affected meat fatty acid profile (p < 0.05). On the other hand, chitosan had no significant effect on overall performance (p > 0.05), but it significantly increased blood lymphocyte content (p < 0.05), affected the fecal microbiota (p < 0.05), improved meat oxidative stability (p < 0.05), increased meat phenolic content (p < 0.05), and affected meat fatty acid composition (p < 0.05) and (p < 0.05) meat color. Finally, the combined use of both T. molitor and chitosan significantly affected some important zootechnical parameters (p < 0.05), fecal microbial populations (p < 0.05), meat color (p < 0.05), and fatty acid profile (p < 0.05). Further investigation into the potential interaction between insect larvae meals and chitosan in pig diets is advised.

Improving the Edible and Nutritional Quality of Roasted Duck Breasts through Variable Pressure Salting: Implications for Protein Anabolism and Digestion in Rats. Foods 2024; 13:402. [PMID: 38338538 PMCID: PMC10855416 DOI: 10.3390/foods13030402] [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: 12/30/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Variable pressure salting (VPS) is considered a novel salting approach to improve meat quality. This study aimed to investigate the effects of roasted duck's edible and nutritional quality after VPS through serum biochemical indicators and in vivo digestion properties in rats. The results show that roasted duck after VPS led to an increase in the total protein content (57.24 g/L) and blood glucose levels (6.87 mmol/L), as well as a decrease in the blood urea nitrogen content (11.81 mmol/L), in rats. Compared to rats fed base diets and roasted duck after static wet salting (SWS), those ingesting roasted duck after VPS exhibited higher values of apparent protein digestibility (51.24%), pepsin activity (2.40 U/mg), and trypsin activity (389.80 U/mg). Furthermore, VPS treatment improved the textural properties and microstructure of duck breasts shown by a higher immobilized water relaxation area and more ordered protein structures (α-helixes and β-sheets). These improvements enhanced the protein anabolism capacity and in vivo digestion properties in rats. Therefore, VPS represents a beneficial salting method for promoting effective digestion and absorption in rats.

Abstract
The current study examined the growth rates, carcase characteristics, meat quality, and consumer sensory evaluation of the longissimus lumborum muscle (striploin) from steers that were supplemented with either canola meal or grain-based pellets. Forty Angus and Hereford × Angus steers received one of these two supplements with ad libitum lucerne hay for 60 d prior to slaughter. Average daily weight gain was not affected by dietary treatment; however, hot standard carcase weight was significantly lower for steers offered canola meal compared with steers on the grain-based pellets. Dietary treatment did not affect the carcase characteristics, meat quality traits, and consumer sensory evaluation, irrespective of ageing periods. Therefore, canola meal can be used as an approved Pasturefed Cattle Assurance System (PCAS) supplement on moderate dry quality forages without negatively affecting carcase and meat quality traits.

Abstract
The influence of frying times (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 min) on the continuous changes in the water distribution and the concentrations of key volatile compounds in chicken breast during the frying process were studied. The fried chicken samples could be distinguished by PCA of E-nose and PLS-DA of GC-MS. A total of 40 volatile compounds were identified by GC-MS, and 28 compounds were verified to be the key compounds after further screening by OAVs. The T22 was increased first and then decreased, while the M22 and M23 in fried chicken were considerably decreased and increased with increasing frying time, respectively. The content of the water and the total peak area of LF-NMR in fried chicken samples during the frying process significantly decreased, and the water was transferred from high to low degrees of freedom. In addition, water content, T21, T22, M22 and L* value were positively correlated with most alcohols and aldehydes, and were negatively correlated with pyrazines, while a*, b*, M23 and all amino acids were positively correlated with pyrazines and were negatively correlated with most alcohols and aldehydes. The results may guide the production processes of fried chicken and help produce high-quality chicken products.

Abstract
The water distribution have a profound influence on meat quality, and proteins play a critical role in water distribution. The water distribution detected with proton NMR and its relationship with protein related properties were investigated. Three populations of water were detected: bound water (T21, P21), immobilized water (T22, P22), and free water (T23, P23). The decreased T22 and T23 indicated an increase in water-holding capacity in both muscles from 3 days of aging. The P22 in cattle was higher than that in yak and the P23 in cattle was lower than that in yak, suggesting that cattle exhibited a greater water-holding capacity compared to yak. Moreover, postmortem aging affected muscle protein oxidation, denaturation, and degradation. Correlation analysis suggested that protein oxidation and denaturation caused muscle water loss and protein degradation could allow the muscle to retain water. It provides a basis for the optimization of quality of meat and products.

Abstract
Globally, the demand for plant-based meat is increasing rapidly as these products are becoming quite popular among vegans and vegetarians. However, its development is still in the early stage and faces various technological challenges; the imitation of the sensory profile of meat is the most challenging part as these products are meant to be an alternative to animal meat. The development of a product similar to meat requires accurate selection of ingredients and processing techniques. An understanding of the relevant sensory profile can help in constructing products and technologies that are consumer-centric and sustainable. In this review, we focus on the comparative differences in the sensory profiles of animal meat and plant-based meat alternatives, particularly regarding the color, texture, and flavor, along with the methods used to compare them. This paper also explains the sensory evaluation and how it affects consumer preference and acceptability. Additionally, a direction for further research on developing better plant-based meat products is suggested.

Abstract
The present study investigated the effect of fish gelatin/chitosan-based (FG/CS-based) films incorporated with lemon essential oil (LEO) on grass carp fillets in terms of moisture status, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), and microbial community succession during chilled (4 °C) and iced (0 °C) storage. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) revealed that the active films remarkably inhibited moisture transformation from being the immobilized to free water in grass carp fillets, accompanied with the reduced T22 relaxation time. Besides, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detected a higher density of proton in the treated fish samples, indicating that the active films could improve the water-holding capacity of fish samples. Moreover, high-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing suggested that the FG/CS-based films loaded with LEO efficiently decreased the relative abundance of the bacterial genera Shewanella and Aeromonas in grass carp fillets, with minimal accumulation of TVB-N during storage. Additionally, the low storage temperature (0 °C) could further enhance the preservative effect of the active films on the fish samples, which together prolonged their shelf-life to 18 days. Overall, the combination of the active films and iced storage could provide a promising strategy to preserve grass carp fillets.

Abstract
Cryopreservation, one of the most effective preservation methods, is essential for maintaining the safety and quality of food. However, there is no denying the fact that the quality of muscle food deteriorates as a result of the unavoidable production of ice. Advancements in cryoregulatory materials and techniques have effectively mitigated the adverse impacts of ice, thereby enhancing the standard of freezing preservation. The first part of this overview explains how ice forms, including the theoretical foundations of nucleation, growth, and recrystallization as well as the key influencing factors that affect each process. Subsequently, the impact of ice formation on the eating quality and nutritional value of muscle food is delineated. A systematic explanation of cutting-edge strategies based on nucleation intervention, growth control, and recrystallization inhibition is offered. These methods include antifreeze proteins, ice-nucleating proteins, antifreeze peptides, natural deep eutectic solvents, polysaccharides, amino acids, and their derivatives. Furthermore, advanced physical techniques such as electrostatic fields, magnetic fields, acoustic fields, liquid nitrogen, and supercooling preservation techniques are expounded upon, which effectively hinder the formation of ice crystals during cryopreservation. The paper outlines the difficulties and potential directions in ice inhibition for effective cryopreservation.

Effects of corn straw on meat characteristics of lambs in the Brazilian semi-arid region. AN ACAD BRAS CIENC 2023; 95:e20200395. [PMID: 38088702 DOI: 10.1590/0001-3765202320200395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2020] [Accepted: 12/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of increasing levels of corn straw replacement of sorghum silage on average daily gain, loin eye area, subcutaneous fat thickness, weight of commercial cuts, leg tissue composition, and physico-chemical characteristics of the meat from F1 Santa Inês × Dorper lambs maintained in a feedlot system. Treatments consisted of 0, 33, 66 and 100% corn straw replacement of sorghum silage. There were thirty-six 150-day-old male lambs. Corn straw replacement of sorghum silage in lamb feed reduced the average daily gain and weight of the ribs, besides promoting a quadratic influence on leg fat content. However, there was no influence on commercial carcass cuts, leg muscle index, leg tissue composition, and physico-chemical characteristics of the meat. Thus, corn straw can be used as alternative feedstuff for sheep rations to improve the production of high-quality sheep meat in semi-arid regions.

Abstract
Despite the relatively high occurrence of bovine meat with intermediate to high ultimate pH (pHu), there is a lack of studies focused on the effects of long-term conventional air-blasting freezing storage on quality parameters of commercial beefs of Zebu Nellore (Bos indicus) with varying pHu ranges. The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of pHu ranges [normal (≤5.79), intermediate (5.80 to 6.19), and high (≥6.20)] and long-term frozen storage on quality parameters of aged Longissimus dorsi beefs of Zebu Nellore (Bos indicus). The aging conditions were set at 2 °C for 14 days, while the freezing conditions were set at - 20 °C, and samples were collected after 3, 6, 9, and 12 months of storage. The results indicated that the pHu influenced meat quality parameters, as well as the chemical forms of myoglobin, which changed throughout the frozen storage, leading to a brighter red color, especially for the normal pHu beef samples, likely due to increased oxymyoglobin content. Frozen storage improved tenderness, with high pHu beef samples being the more tender after 12 months, potentially due to lower protein oxidation, as measured by the carbonyl content. Increased drip loss was observed over freezing time, with a concomitant decrease in protein solubility, especially for myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic proteins, which differed among the pHu ranges. These findings are valuable for determining freezing time as a preservation strategy to maintain beef quality within different pHu ranges.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Shrimp is widely consumed around the world. Since muscle is the primary edible component of shrimp, muscle quality (particularly texture) has a direct impact on the economic value of shrimp products. However, reports on the shrimp muscle quality influenced by transportation are rather limited, and the underlying mechanism remains unknown. RESULTS During the simulated transportation, the water pH and total ammonia-nitrogen content and un-ionized ammonia contents were elevated. Furthermore, reductions in shrimp muscle water-holding capacity, hardness, and shear value with intensive myofibrillar protein degradation were detected. Simulated transportation decreased the pH and glycogen content of shrimp muscle while increasing lactic dehydrogenase activity and lactate content, resulting in an elevated level of free calcium ions and increased μ-calpain and general proteolytic activities. Water exchange could improve the water quality and reduce the mortality of shrimp during transportation, as well as decrease muscle textural softening by alleviating these stress responses. CONCLUSIONS Maintaining water quality and, in particular, reducing ammonia are critical to improving shrimp survival and muscle quality during live transportation. This study is of great significance for the better maintenance of the textural properties of shrimp meat. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Plant essential oil has attracted much attention in delaying pork spoilage due to its safety, but its low antibacterial efficiency needs to be solved by encapsulation. Our previous research had fabricated a type of ovalbumin gel nanoparticles loaded with carvacrol (OCGn-2) using the gel-embedding method, which had a high encapsulation rate and antibacterial activity. The main purpose of this study was to further evaluate the stability and slow-release characteristics of OCGn-2 and potential quality effects of the nanoparticles on the preservation of fresh pork pieces during 4 °C storage. The particle test showed that the nanoparticles had better heat stability below 85 °C and salt stability below 90 mM. The in vitro release study indicated that the carvacrol in OCGn-2 followed a Fickian release mechanism. The pork preservation test suggested that the OCGn-2 coating treatments could remarkably restrict the quality decay of pork slices compared to free carvacrol or a physical mixture of ovalbumin and carvacrol treatment. Nano-encapsulation of ovalbumin is beneficial to the sustained release, enhanced oxidation resistance, and improved antibacterial activity of carvacrol. The study suggested that ovalbumin gel nanoparticles embedded with carvacrol could be applied as an efficient bacterial active packaging to extend the storage life of pork.

The impact of freezing methods on the quality, moisture distribution, microstructure, and flavor profile of hand-grabbed mutton during long-term frozen storage. Food Res Int 2023; 173:113346. [PMID: 37803651 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113346] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2023] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
The aim of present study was to investigate the influence of conventional freezing (CF, -18 °C), low-temperaturefreezing (LF, -40 °C), and ultra-low-temperature freezing (ULF, -80 °C) on the quality, moisture distribution, microstructure, and flavor profile of hand-grabbed mutton (HGM) during frozen storage (0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 days). The TPC, TVB-N, and TBARS values increased significantly with prolonged storage, while the moisture content decreased (P < 0.05). Additionally, the concentrations of aldehydes, alcohols, ketones, acids, and alkenes decreased significantly as the storage duration increased. However, the concentrations of esters and heterocyclics increased (P < 0.05). Notably, at 30-180 days of storage, the TBARS and TVB-N values in ULF samples were significantly lower than those in CF and LF samples, while the moisture content was significantly higher (P < 0.05). Low field-nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) analysis showed that ULF decreased water migration and maintained the original texture characteristics of HGM during frozen storage. The ULF and LF groups had significantly higher levels of volatiles than the CF group (P < 0.05). The findings show that ULF, with its relatively rapid freezing rates, can still maintain the high quality of HGM after 180 days of frozen storage, contributing to quality control.

Abstract
Slaughter on the farm can address the concerns of farmers by meeting the needs of short distribution channels while better preserving animal welfare and meat quality. It can support conventional slaughter, by compensating for the significant decrease in the number of slaughterhouses in recent decades. The review describes first the different stages of slaughter and their possible impacts on animals' stress, welfare and consequences on their meat quality. The second part takes stock of recent thinking on the subject of slaughter and the regulation and technological advances that have led to the development of mobile slaughter units. A non-exhaustive list of mobile slaughter units currently in use in different countries is presented. Although these units can only absorb a small percentage of the total amounts of animals slaughtered, they are a welcome alternative to current slaughter practices for certain types of production and distribution, provided that the animal welfare and all aspects of meat quality are garanteed.

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
Sodium salt is one of the important additives in food processing. However, excessive intake of sodium salt may cause a series of cardiovascular diseases. Nowadays, sodium intake in most countries is higher than the World Health Organization recommends maximum consumption (5 g/d). 20% of the sodium intake in diets comes from meat products. Therefore, reducing the content of sodium salt in meat products and developing sodium salt-reduction meat products have attracted more and more attention for consumers. In this paper, the roles of sodium salt in meat product processing were reviewed. At the same time, sodium salt reduction strategies and existing problems were summarized and discussed. Multiple factors need to be considered to improve the salt-reduction meat product's quality. Relying on a single technology has a narrow application area, and it is difficult to achieve salt reduction. Therefore, a combination of multiple strategies could obtain a more ideal effect.

Abstract
The present research aimed to determine the main differences in meat and carcass quality traits among turkey genotypes worldwide and describe the clustering patterns through the use of a discriminant canonical analysis (DCA). To achieve this goal, a comprehensive meta-analysis of 75 documents discussing carcass and meat characteristics in the turkey species was performed. Meat and carcass attributes of nine different turkey populations were collected and grouped in terms of the following clusters: carcass dressing traits, muscle fiber properties, pH, color-related traits, water-retaining characteristics, texture-related traits, and meat chemical composition. The Bayesian ANOVA analysis reported that the majority of variables statistically differed (p < 0.05), and the multicollinearity analysis revealed the absence of redundancy problems among variables (VIF < 5). The DCA reported that cold carcass weight, slaughter weight, sex-male, carcass/piece weight, and the protein and fat composition of meat were the traits explaining variability among different turkey genotypes (Wilks' lambda: 0.488, 0.590, 0.905, 0.906, 0.937, and 0.944, respectively). The combination of traits in the first three dimensions explained 94.93% variability among groups. Mahalanobis distances cladogram-grouped populations following a cluster pattern and suggest its applicability as indicative of a turkey genotype's traceability.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) allow identifying genomic regions related to traits of economic importance in animals of zootechnical interest. The objective of this research was to conduct a genome-wide association study on meat quality traits using the Illumina OvineSNPs50 BeadChip array. The animals were sampled in the departments of Córdoba, Cesar, and Valle del Cauca. The genotypes obtained with the Illumina OvineSNP50 BeadChip microarray were analyzed SNP (single-nucleotide polymorphism) data to conduct a GWAS for pH and water-holding capacity (WHC) traits measured after 7 days of maturation, in the Longissimus dorsi (LD) muscle, in 167 Creole hair sheep of 12 months old belonging to Pelibuey (CHSP, n = 60), Ethiopian (CHSE, n = 44), and Sudan (CHSS, n = 63) breeds. The GWAS was done using a mixed linear model (MLMA) and based on the Ovis aries v3.1 genome. The CHSE showed the lowest meat juice release and, consequently, the highest water-holding capacity (WHC = 30.6 ± 0.1), suggesting that this breed has better performance in the meat industry compared with CHSS (WHC = 41.7 ± 0.1) and CHSP (WHC = 36.8 ± 0.1), since there is a relationship between WHC and juiciness. For the character pH, it was not possible to annotate genes related to meat quality, while, for the WHC, they have obtained 11 candidate genes associated (ELOVL2, ARAP2, LOC101102527, SHOC2, AIPL1, CSRNP3, IFRD, KDM8, NANS, DAPK1, IBN2, TPM2). Particularly, ELOVL2, ARAP2, IBN2, and TPM2 genes are involved in muscle contraction and fatty acid composition in sheep. In this study, we generated a baseline for GWAS related to meat quality traits in Colombian Creole hair sheep that can be used for future genomic selection plans.

Abstract
The effects of roasting times (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 min) on the dynamic changes of the water distribution and key aroma compounds in roasted chicken during the electric roasting process were studied. In total, 36 volatile compounds were further determined by GC-MS and 11 compounds, including 1-octen-3-ol, 1-heptanol, hexanal, decanal, (E)-2-octenal, acetic acid hexyl ester, nonanal, 2-pentylfuran, heptanal, (E, E)-2,4-decadienal and octanal, were confirmed as key aroma compounds. The relaxation time of T22 and T23 was increased first and then decreased, while the M22 and M23 in roasted chicken were decreased and increased with increasing roasting time, respectively. The fluidity of the water in the chicken during the roasting process was decreased, and the water with a high degree of freedom migrated to the water with a low degree of freedom. In addition, the L*, a*, b*, M23 and all amino acids were positively correlated with all the key aroma compounds, while T22, M22 and moisture content were negatively correlated with all the key aroma compounds.

Abstract
This research was carried out with the objective of evaluating the effects of using a chilling water sprinkler system during the cooling process of swine carcasses on the quantitative and qualitative parameters of carcass and meat. A total of 220 swine carcasses were divided in a completely randomized experiment and two treatments: (1) CONTROL, no water spraying; (2) SPRAY, with water spraying during cooling. Surface and internal temperature of carcasses throughout the cooling process, initial and final pH, and microbiological analyses of carcass surface were evaluated. Samples of the Longissimus lumborum (LL) were collected for analysis of color, cooking loss (CL), shear force (SF), and drip loss (DL). Data were submitted to analysis of variance through the SAS MIXED procedure adopting the most adequate model with treatments as fixed effects and pertinent random effects for each data set. The use of spray-chilling in the initial cooling process accelerates the surface and internal temperature decrease of swine carcasses, which may be a viable technological resource in swine industry.

Changes in water holding capacity of chilled fresh pork in controlled freezing-point storage assisted by different modes of electrostatic field action. Meat Sci 2023; 204:109269. [PMID: 37394351 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2023.109269] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 06/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023]
Abstract
Electrostatic field-assisted low-temperature preservation is considered a novel technology, which provides an effective means of extending the shelf-life of meat. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different output time modes of a high voltage electrostatic field (HVEF) on the water holding capacity (WHC) of chilled fresh pork during controlled freezing-point storage. Under a direct current HVEF generator, chilled fresh pork samples were treated by the single, interval, or continuous HVEF treatment, with a control check group receiving no HVEF treatment. It was determined that the WHC of the continuous HVEF treatment higher than the control check group. This difference was proven by analyzing the moisture content, storage loss, centrifugal loss, cooking loss, and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. Furthermore, the mechanism behind HVEF-assisted controlled freezing-point storage reduced the moisture loss was conducted by examining the changes in the hydration characteristics of myofibrillar protein. The study revealed that myofibrillar proteins exhibit high solubility and low surface hydrophobicity under continuous HVEF. Additionally, continuous HVEF has been demonstrated to effectively maintain the higher WHC and lower hardness of myofibrillar protein gel by inhibiting the water molecule migration. The demonstration of these results showcases the effectiveness of electrostatic fields for the future physical preservation of meat.
