Liu Q, Luo H, Liang D, Zheng Y, Shen H, Li W. Effect of electron beam irradiation pretreatment and different fatty acid types on the formation, structural characteristics and functional properties of starch-lipid complexes. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 337:122187. [PMID: 38710543 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2024.122187] [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: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
The effects of different electron beam irradiation doses (2, 4, 8 KGy) and various types of fatty acids (lauric acid, stearic acid, and oleic acid) on the formation, structure, physicochemical properties, and digestibility of starch-lipid complex were investigated. The complexing index of the complexes was higher than 85 %, indicating that the three fatty acids could easily form complexes with starch. With the increase of electron beam irradiation dose, the complexing index increased first and then decreased. The highest complexing index was lauric acid (97.12 %), stearic acid (96.80 %), and oleic acid (97.51 %) at 2 KGy radiation dose, respectively. Moreover, the microstructure, crystal structure, thermal stability, rheological properties, and starch solubility were analyzed. In vitro digestibility tests showed that adding fatty acids could reduce the content of hydrolyzed starch, among which the resistant starch content of the starch-oleic acid complex was the highest (54.26 %). The lower dose of electron beam irradiation could decrease the digestibility of starch and increase the content of resistant starch.

Kim YJ, Cha JY, Kim TK, Lee JH, Jung S, Choi YS. The Effect of Irradiation on Meat Products. Food Sci Anim Resour 2024; 44:779-789. [PMID: 38974724 PMCID: PMC11222703 DOI: 10.5851/kosfa.2024.e35] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024] Open
Abstract
The effects of irradiation on meat constituents including water, proteins, and lipids are multifaceted. Irradiation leads to the decomposition of water molecules, resulting in the formation of free radicals that can have both positive and negative effects on meat quality and storage. Although irradiation reduces the number of microorganisms and extends the shelf life of meat by damaging microbial DNA and cell membranes, it can also accelerate the oxidation of lipids and proteins, particularly sulfur-containing amino acids and unsaturated fatty acids. With regard to proteins, irradiation affects both myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic proteins. Myofibrillar proteins, such as actin and myosin, can undergo depolymerization and fragmentation, thereby altering protein solubility and structure. Sarcoplasmic proteins, including myoglobin, undergo structural changes that can alter meat color. Collagen, which is crucial for meat toughness, can undergo an increase in solubility owing to irradiation-induced degradation. The lipid content and composition are also influenced by irradiation, with unsaturated fatty acids being particularly vulnerable to oxidation. This process can lead to changes in the lipid quality and the production of off-odors. However, the effects of irradiation on lipid oxidation may vary depending on factors such as irradiation dose and packaging method. In summary, while irradiation can have beneficial effects, such as microbial reduction and shelf-life extension, it can also lead to changes in meat properties that need to be carefully managed to maintain quality and consumer acceptability.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024. [PMID: 38591367 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Goat milk is considered a nutritionally superior resource, owing to its advantageous nutritional attributes. Nevertheless, it is susceptible to spoilage and the persistence of pathogens. Electron beam irradiation stands as a promising non-thermal processing technique capable of prolonging shelf life with minimal residue and a high degree of automation. RESULTS The effects of electron beam irradiation (2, 3, 5, and 7 kGy) on microorganisms, physicochemical properties, and protein structure of goat milk compared with conventional pasteurized goat milk (PGM) was evaluated. It was found that a 2 kGy electron beam irradiation reduces the total microbial count of goat milk by 6-logs, and the irradiated goat milk protein secondary structure showed a significant decrease in ɑ-helix content. Low irradiation doses led to microaggregation and crosslinking. In contrast, high doses (≥ 5 kGy) slightly disrupted the aggregates and decreased the particle size, disrupting the microscopic surface structure of goat milk, verified by scanning electron microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. CONCLUSION The irradiation of goat milk with a 2 kGy electron beam may effectively inactivate harmful microorganisms in the milk and maintain/or improve the physicochemical quality and protein structure of goat milk compared to thermal pasteurization. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Low-energy electron beams (LEEB) are a safe and practical sterilization solution for in-line industrial applications, such as sterilizing medical products. However, their low dose rate induces product degradation, and the limited maximal energy prohibits high-throughput applications. To address this, we developed a low-energy 'pulsed' electron beam generator (LEPEB) and evaluated its efficacy and mechanism of action. Bacillus pumilus vegetative cells and spores were irradiated with a 250 keV LEPEB system at a 100 Hz pulse repetition frequency and a pulse duration of only 10 ns. This produced highly efficient bacterial inactivation at a rate of >6 log10, the level required for sterilization in industrial applications, with only two pulses for vegetative bacteria (20 ms) and eight pulses for spores (80 ms). LEPEB induced no morphological or structural defects, but decreased cell wall hydrophobicity in vegetative cells, which may inhibit biofilm formation. Single- and double-strand DNA breaks and pyrimidine dimer formation were also observed, likely causing cell death. Together, the unique combination of high dose rate and nanosecond delivery of LEPEB enable effective and high-throughput bacterial eradication for direct integration into production lines in a wide range of industrial applications.

Abstract
Phenolic compounds have recently become one of the most interesting topics in different research areas, especially in food science and nutrition due to their health-promoting effects. Phenolic compounds are found together with macronutrients and micronutrients in foods and within several food systems. The coexistence of phenolics and other food components can lead to their interaction resulting in complex formation. This review article aims to cover the effects of thermal and non-thermal processing techniques on the protein-phenolic interaction especially focusing on the content and digestibility of phenolics by discussing recently published research articles. It is clear that the processing conditions and individual properties of phenolics and proteins are the most effective factors in the final content and intestinal fates of phenolic compounds. Besides, thermal and non-thermal treatments, such as high-pressure processing, pulsed electric field, cold plasma, ultrasonication, and fermentation may induce alterations in those interactions. Still, new investigations are required for different food processing treatments by using a wide range of food products to enlighten new functional and healthier food product design, to provide the optimized processing conditions of foods for obtaining better quality, higher nutritional properties, and health benefits. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
This study focuses on the behavior of volatile organic compounds in beef after irradiation with 1 MeV accelerated electrons with doses ranging from 0.25 kGy to 5 kGy to find reliable dose-dependent markers that could be used for establishing an effective dose range for beef irradiation. GC/MS analysis revealed that immediately after irradiation, the chemical yield and accumulation rate of lipid oxidation-derived aldehydes was higher than that of protein oxidation-derived aldehydes. The nonlinear dose-dependent relationship of the concentration of volatile organic compounds was explained using a mathematical model based on the simultaneous occurrence of two competing processes: decomposition of volatile compounds due to direct and indirect action of accelerated electrons, and accumulation of volatile compounds due to decomposition of other compounds and biomacromolecules. A four-day monitoring of the beef samples stored at 4 °C showed that lipid oxidation-derived aldehydes, protein oxidation-derived aldehydes and alkanes as well as alcohol ethanol as an indicator of bacterial activity were dose-dependent markers of biochemical processes occurring in the irradiated beef samples during storage: oxidative processes during direct and indirect action of irradiation, oxidation due to the action of reactive oxygen species, which are always present in the product during storage, and microbial-enzymatic processes. According to the mathematical model of the change in the concentrations of lipid oxidation-derived aldehydes over time in the beef samples irradiated with different doses, it was found that doses ranging from 0.25 kGy to 1 kGy proved to be most effective for beef irradiation with accelerated electrons, since this dose range decreases the bacterial content without considerable irreversible changes in chemical composition of chilled beef during storage.

Abstract
The effects of high-energy electron beam irradiation (HE-EBI) at various doses (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 kGy) on the antioxidant activity of ovalbumin (OVA) were studied, and the molecular mechanism was investigated. The results showed that the antioxidant activity of HE-EBI-treated OVA was significantly enhanced in a dose-dependent manner. The irradiated OVA structure gradually unfolded to form a "honeycomb" structure, exposing the buried hydrophobic and free sulfhydryl groups inside the molecule. Two oxidation sites (M35 and T170), adjacent to the antioxidant peptide were identified by mass spectrometry, possibly exposing the antioxidant peptide through structural deconvolution. In addition, aspartic residues generated dicarbonyl compound under high-energy electron beam stress, and its accumulation further enhanced the antioxidant activity. Conclusively, HE-EBI can enhance the antioxidant activity of OVA through ionization effects, providing valuable information for the potential application of HE-EBI in the food industry.

Abstract
Chillies are considered a universal ingredient for imparting flavor and pungency to foods. Pakistan stood in the top twenty countries worldwide by producing 82 thousand Tons of chillies during 2022-23. Chilli fungal contamination and aflatoxin production during drying is a common problem during post-harvest process. Gasses treatment and Ionizing radiations are efficient methods for reducing toxigenic and pathogenic microbial growth in food items. The current study was designed to compare the effects of ethylene oxide (ETO), gamma (GB) & electron beam (EB) treatments on two red chilli local cultivars (Kunri and Hybrid) of Pakistan. After treatment, the chilli samples were analyzed for aflatoxins, physicochemical, quality & safety attributes. All results were subjected to Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA), dendrogram and ANOVA to check the correlations, grouping and level of significance within the varieties and treatments. The results showed that moisture and water activity mainly designated PC-2 directions and are slightly positively correlated. Conversely, both fat and proteins have a negative correlation with moisture, ash and water activity. Besides, carotenoids and ABTS assay mainly designated PC-2 directions and are slightly positively correlated. Color, flavonoids and TPC also possess positive correlations among them. ETO depicts effectiveness in the reduction of E. coli but is not effective in saving antioxidant potential such as total flavonoids. Similarly, gamma irradiations showed strong reduction trends in fungal and pathogenic count, however same trend was observed in ascorbic acid too. Besides, the electron beam with dosage levels of 12 and 15 kGy has shown effectiveness against Aspergillus spp., aflatoxins and pathogenic microbial load in addition to saving antioxidant potential (phenolics and flavonoids), physicochemical parameters and color values compared to other applied methods especially in Kunri variety. It was evident from the research that varietal combination in addition to applied treatment must be specially considered while designing a treatment for chillies.

[PMID: 38406359 PMCID: PMC10884575 DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2024.59-71] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background and Aim Irradiation has become a preferred method for pork preservation in recent years. Electron-beam irradiation is notably recognized for its feasibility and safety among various irradiation methods. This meta-analysis study aims to elucidate the impact of electron-beam irradiation on oxidation parameters, color, sensory attributes, and microbiological conditions in pork. Materials and Methods A total of 79 data from 22 articles were aggregated into an extensive database. The irradiation dose ranged from 0 to 20 kGy in this current meta-analysis. The observed parameters encompassed oxidation, color, sensory attributes, and microbiological conditions. A mixed-model approach was used to perform the meta-data analysis, in which irradiation dose was treated as fixed effects and distinct studies (articles) as random effects. Results Electron-beam irradiation resulted in an increase in thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances levels and peroxide-oxygen value of pork (p < 0.01). Conversely, total volatile-base-nitrogen values (p < 0.05) were observed. Following irradiation, the pH value, lightness (L*), redness (a*), and yellowness (b*) remained unaffected. Pork color tended to decrease after irradiation treatment (p = 0.095 and p = 0.079, respectively) at 7 and 14 days of storage. The irradiation process resulted in an increase in the values of texture and juiciness parameters (p < 0.05). However, electron-beam irradiation resulted in decreased overall acceptability (p = 0.089). In terms of microbiological status, electron-beam irradiation led to a reduction in the populations of Salmonella (p < 0.01), Escherichia coli (p < 0.01), Listeria monocytogenes (p < 0.05), and coliforms (p < 0.05) at 7 and 14 days of storage. Conclusion Electron-beam irradiation enhances lipid peroxidation in porcine meat. The color of the meat remained unchanged after treatment. However, with regard to sensory properties, electron-beam irradiation showed a tendency to decreased overall acceptability. Most microbiological parameters decreased following electron-beam irradiation.

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

Food Res Int 2023; 173:113254.

Abstract
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) has adversely affected public health worldwide, causing an economic burden on many countries. Fresh vegetables are reported as a source of HAV infections during production, harvesting, and distribution, which cause the emergence of foodborne illnesses. Therefore, in this study, the synergistic effects of chemical (sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl] and chlorine dioxide [ClO2]) and physical (electron-beam [e-beam] irradiation) sequential treatment for HAV inactivation on fresh vegetables were investigated, and the physicochemical quality changes of vegetables were evaluated after each treatment. On bell pepper and cucumber sequentially treated with NaOCl (50-500 ppm) and e-beam (1-5 kGy), the HAV titer was reduced by 0.19-4.69 and 0.28-4.78 log10 TCID50/mL, respectively. Sequential treatment with ClO2 (10-250 ppm) and e-beam (1-5 kGy) reduced the HAV titer on bell pepper and cucumber by 0.41-4.78 and 0.26-4.80 log10 TCID50/mL, respectively. The sequential treatments steadily decreased the HAV titers on each food by a significant difference (p < 0.05) compared to the controls. The treatment combinations of 500 ppm NaOCl and 3 kGy (e-beam) on bell pepper and 150 ppm NaOCl and 1 kGy (e-beam) on cucumber provided maximum synergistic effects. It was also found that sequential treatment with 50 ppm ClO2 and 5 kGy (e-beam) on bell pepper and 10 ppm ClO2 and 5 kGy (e-beam) on cucumber most efficiently inactivated HAV. Additionally, bell pepper and cucumber showed no significant quality changes (p < 0.05) after the treatment. Therefore, the sequential treatment with NaOCl or ClO2 and e-beam is expected to effectively control HAV on fresh vegetables without changing the food quality compared to either treatment alone.

Abstract
While food borne pathogens constitute a major public health problem world-wide, food post-harvest losses is considered to be the leading cause of hunger and malnutrition globally. Food irradiation is a process of preserving food in which food are exposed to appropriate doses of ionizing radiation in order to kill insects, molds and other potentially harmful microbes and allergens. The process involves carefully exposing food to a measured amount of ionizing radiation in a special processing room on a conveyor belt for a specified duration. The radiation sources could be gamma ray, electron beam or X-ray. The radiation doses could be high, low or medium depending on the products to be irradiated and the target organism to be eradicated. Irradiation technology has various applications including sprout inhibition in root and tubers, disinfestation in cereals and pulses, reduction or elimination of food borne pathogens in vegetables and animal products and delayed ripening of fruits. All these applications are intended to increase shelf life and eliminate food allegenicity. Despite consumer concern on the safety and quality of irradiated foods, it is gradually gaining acceptance due to increased awareness and the perceived safety and quality as symbolized by the Radura symbol. With the increasing acceptance and commercialization of food irradiation, it could play an important role in solving the problems of food insecurity and food borne illnesses in the world.

Electron beam-irradiated donor cornea for on-demand lenticule implantation to treat corneal diseases and refractive error. Acta Biomater 2023; 169:334-347. [PMID: 37532130 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.07.053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2023] [Revised: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023]
Abstract
The cornea is the major contributor to the refractive power of the eye, and corneal diseases are a leading cause of reversible blindness. The main treatment for advanced corneal disease is keratoplasty: allograft transplantation of the cornea. Examples include lenticule implantation to treat corneal disorders (e.g. keratoconus) or correct refractive errors. These procedures are limited by the shelf-life of the corneal tissue, which must be discarded within 2-4 weeks. Electron-beam irradiation is an emerging sterilisation technique, which extends this shelf life to 2 years. Here, we produced lenticules from fresh and electron-beam (E-beam) irradiated corneas to establish a new source of tissue for lenticule implantation. In vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo experiments were conducted to compare fresh and E-beam-irradiated lenticules. Results were similar in terms of cutting accuracy, ultrastructure, optical transparency, ease of extraction and transplantation, resilience to mechanical handling, biocompatibility, and post-transplant wound healing process. Two main differences were noted. First, ∼59% reduction of glycosaminoglycans resulted in greater compression of E-beam-irradiated lenticules post-transplant, likely due to reduced corneal hydration-this appeared to affect keratometry after implantation. Cutting a thicker lenticule would be required to ameliorate the difference in refraction. Second, E-beam-sterilised lenticules exhibited lower Young's modulus which may indicate greater care with handling, although no damage or perforation was caused in our procedures. In summary, E-beam-irradiated corneas are a viable source of tissue for stromal lenticules, and may facilitate on-demand lenticule implantation to treat a wide range of corneal diseases. Our study suggested that its applications in human patients are warranted. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Corneal blindness affects over six million patients worldwide. For patients requiring corneal transplantation, current cadaver-based procedures are limited by the short shelf-life of donor tissue. Electron-beam (E-beam) sterilisation extends this shelf-life from weeks to years but there are few published studies of its use. We demonstrated that E-beam-irradiated corneas are a viable source of lenticules for implantation. We conducted in vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo comparisons of E-beam and fresh corneal lenticules. The only differences exhibited by E-beam-treated lenticules were reduced expression of glycosaminoglycans, resulting in greater tissue compression and lower refraction suggesting that a thicker cut is required to achieve the same optical and refractive outcome; and lower Young's modulus indicating extra care with handling.

Abstract
Germinated edible seeds and sprouts have attracted consumers because of their nutritional values and health benefits. To ensure the microbial safety of the seed and sprout, emerging processing methods involving physical fields (PFs), having the characteristics of high efficiency and environmental safety, are increasingly proposed as effective decontamination processing technologies. This review summarizes recent progress on the application of PFs to germinating edible seeds, including their impact on microbial decontamination and nutritional quality and the associated influencing mechanisms in germination. The effectiveness, application scope, and limitation of the various physical techniques, including ultrasound, microwave, radio frequency, infrared heating, irradiation, pulsed light, plasma, and high-pressure processing, are symmetrically reviewed. Good application potential for improving seed germination and sprout growth is also described for promoting the accumulation of bioactive compounds in sprouts, and subsequently enhancing the antioxidant capacity under favorable PFs processing conditions. Moreover, the challenges and future directions of PFs in the application to germinated edible seeds are finally proposed. This review also attempts to provide an in-depth understanding of the effects of PFs on microbial safety and changes in nutritional properties of germinating edible seeds and a theoretical reference for the future development of PFs in processing safe sprouted seeds.

Abstract
Fresh wet noodles (FWNs) are popular among people and have attracted increasing attention because of their characteristics of freshness, chewiness, good taste, and better maintenance of noodle flavor. However, due to the high moisture content and abundance of nutrients in FWN, they are prone to spoilage, which shortens their shelf life and reduces their quality, greatly restricting their large-scale production. Therefore, seeking effective preservation methods to prolong the shelf life is a major breakthrough for the industrialization of FWN. The present review provides a comprehensive overview of the main factors that contribute to the spoilage and degradation of FWN. These factors encompass microorganisms, moisture content, nutritional composition, enzymes, and storage temperature. Moreover, the recent developments in novel shelf-life extension technology applied to FWN, such as chemical preservatives, natural preservatives, physical treatment technologies, and composite preservation technology, are presented and discussed. From the literature reviewed, the application of technologies, such as adding preservatives, modified atmosphere packaging, microwave, cold plasma, ozone, and other technologies, has a certain effect on improving the shelf life of FWN, but the single preservation technology still has some deficiencies. In order to further improve the preservation efficiency, using two or more preservation methods is an important direction for future research on the preservation technology of FWN.

Abstract
Various foodborne viruses have been associated with human health during the last decade, causing gastroenteritis and a huge economic burden worldwide. Furthermore, the emergence of new variants of infectious viruses is growing continuously. Inactivation of foodborne viruses in the food industry is a formidable task because although viruses cannot grow in foods, they can survive in the food matrix during food processing and storage environments. Conventional inactivation methods pose various drawbacks, necessitating more effective and environmentally friendly techniques for controlling foodborne viruses during food production and processing. Various inactivation approaches for controlling foodborne viruses have been attempted in the food industry. However, some traditionally used techniques, such as disinfectant-based or heat treatment, are not always efficient. Nonthermal techniques are considered a new platform for effective and safe treatment to inactivate foodborne viruses. This review focuses on foodborne viruses commonly associated with human gastroenteritis, including newly emerged viruses, such as sapovirus and Aichi virus. It also investigates the use of chemical and nonthermal physical treatments as effective technologies to inactivate foodborne viruses.

Abstract
The contamination of Atlantic salmon with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has impeded the development of the cold-chain food industry and posed possible risks to the population. Electron beam (E-beam) irradiation under 2, 4, 7, and 10 kGy can effectively inactivate SARS-CoV-2 in cold-chain seafood. However, there are few statistics about the quality changes of salmon exposed to these irradiation dosages. This work demonstrated that E-beam irradiation at dosages capable of killing SARS-CoV-2 induced lipid oxidation, decreased vitamin A content, and increased some amino acids and ash content. In addition, irradiation altered the textural features of salmon, such as its hardness, resilience, cohesiveness, and chewiness. The irradiation considerably affected the L*, a*, and b* values of salmon, with the L* value increasing and a*, b* values decreasing. There was no significant difference in the sensory evaluation of control and irradiated salmon. It was shown that irradiation with 2-7 kGy E-beam did not significantly degrade quality. The inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 in salmon is advised at a dose of 2 kGy.

Abstract
Seafood is one of the essential sources of nutrients for the human diet. However, they can be subject to contamination and can cause foodborne illnesses, including scombroid fish poisoning caused by histamine. Many microorganisms can produce enzymes that eventually decompose endogenous histidine to histamine in postmortem fish muscles and tissues. One of these is histamine-forming bacteria (HFB), primarily found in the gills, gut, and skin of fishes. Previous studies linked a plethora of Gram-negative HFB including Morganella spp. and Photobacterium spp. to scombroid fish poisoning from many types of seafood, especially the Scombridae family. These bacteria possess the hdc gene to produce histidine decarboxylase enzyme. It was reported that Gram-negative HFB produced 6345 ppm in tuna and 1223 ppm in Spanish mackerel. Interestingly, Gram-positive HFB have been isolated in the seafood samples with lower histamine levels. It suggests that Gram-negative HFB are the major contributor to the accumulation of histamine in seafood. Several analytical methods are available to detect and identify HFB and their histamine metabolites from seafood substrates. Rapid test kits can be used in food production settings for early detection of histamine to avoid food intoxication. Furthermore, high hydrostatic pressure and irradiation treatment could prevent the proliferation of HFB and inactivate the existing histidine decarboxylase (HDC) activity. As demonstrated in different seafood model systems, the HDC activity was deactivated at a maximum high hydrostatic pressure level of 400 MPa. The complete inactivation of HFB was achieved by gamma irradiation at a dose of 4.0 kGy. Other postharvest treatments, like enzymatic degradation and electrolyzed oxidizing water, were studied as sustainable methods for bacterial growth prevention and enzyme inactivation. However, other HFB react differently to these treatment conditions, and further studies are recommended.

Abstract
To elucidate the effect of electron beam irradiation (EBI) on the textural quality of Litopenaeus vannamei, the tandem-mass-tag labeled proteomic method was conducted to illustrate the protein changes in shrimp muscle. The results suggested that shrimp irradiated with 5 kGy exhibited optimum textural traits of hardness, springiness, and chewiness. In total, 486 proteins were identified as differentially abundance proteins (DAPs) in multiple comparison groups. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that most of DAPs participated in cellular process, binding, and catalytic. etc. Various signaling pathways, such as RNA transport and oxidative phosphorylation, were notably enriched by DAPs. The correlation analysis indicated that some DAPs such as Myosin-XVIIIa, projectin, and beta-thymosin 3 were remarkably correlated with the textural properties, which could be proposed as potential biomarkers to assess the irradiation-induced textural variation in shrimp. This study provided an insightful understanding at the protein level to improve the application of EBI to shrimp preservation.

Abstract
The depletion of fossil resources and the growing demand for plastic waste reduction has put industries and academic researchers under pressure to develop increasingly sustainable packaging solutions that are both functional and circularly designed. In this review, we provide an overview of the fundamentals and recent advances in biobased packaging materials, including new materials and techniques for their modification as well as their end-of-life scenarios. We also discuss the composition and modification of biobased films and multilayer structures, with particular attention to readily available drop-in solutions, as well as coating techniques. Moreover, we discuss end-of-life factors, including sorting systems, detection methods, composting options, and recycling and upcycling possibilities. Finally, regulatory aspects are pointed out for each application scenario and end-of-life option. Moreover, we discuss the human factor in terms of consumer perception and acceptance of upcycling.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2023; 103:195-204.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insoluble dietary fiber (IDF) has beneficial physiological effects, such as the promoting of intestinal peristalsis, the improving of intestinal flora, and the absorbing of some harmful substances. Okara, a byproduct of soybean processing, is a potential source of IDF. But the larger particle size and poor water solubility of okara IDF have adverse effects on sensory properties and functional characteristics. Therefore, we used an emerging type of physical method is electron beam irradiation (EBI) to modify okara, and investigated that the effects of EBI doses on the structure and functional properties of okara IDF. RESULTS It was found that the electron beam treatment damaged the crystalline structure of IDF. Observation of the surface of EBI-treated IDF revealed a loose and porous morphology rather than the typical smooth structure. At a dose of 6 kGy, a smallest particle size and largest specific surface area of IDF was obtained, and these factors increased the apparent viscosity of an IDF dispersion. The water holding capacity, swelling capacity and the oil holding capacity upon irradiation at 6 kGy increased 74.13%, 84.76% and 41.62%, respectively. In addition, the capacity for adsorption of cholesterol, sodium cholate, glucose and nitrite ion were improved after electron beam treatment. CONCLUSION The modified okara IDF showed improved particle sizes and hydration properties, and these changes correlated with an improvement to the rough taste of IDF and improvements to the texture and storage period upon supplementation into food. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effect of electron beam irradiation on the physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory attributes of dry fermented sausage during 8 weeks of refrigerated storage at 4°C. The five doses of e-beam irradiation applied were: 0 kGy (control) and 1, 2, 3, and 4 kGy. All the experimental treatments led to a significant decrease in pH values during the storage period of 60 days (P<0.05). The 2-kGy treatment caused a significant (P<0.05) decrease in pH value, bacterial growth (total plate count, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Escherichia coli), and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances values than other irradiated fermented sausage batches during the study. Irradiation did not affect the water activity value of the fermented sausage samples. For color characteristics, 3 kGy exhibited significantly lower (P<0.05) L* (lightness) values than other irradiation treatments. A similar trend of significantly lower (P<0.05) a* (redness) and b* (yellowness) values was observed in all irradiated treatments than in the control. All the treatments showed no significant differences (P>0.05) in scores in sensory attributes (color and sourness); however, fermented sausage irradiated with 3 kGy had the highest sensory characteristics (overall acceptability) at the end of the storage period. In conclusion, 1, 2, and 3 kGy irradiation treatments can be beneficial for inhibiting lipid oxidation, controlling microbial growth, and maintaining sensory attributes of fermented sausage during storage, thereby enhancing their food safety and shelf stability.

Abstract
In this study, electron beam irradiation (EBI; 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 kGy), hydroxypropylation (HP) and dual modification of EBI-HP were applied to modify corn and potato starches. The results showed that the molar substitution (MS) of EBI-HP modified corn and potato starches were in the range of 0.060-0.087 and 0.080-0.124, respectively. After modifications, amylose content of corn (30.0 %) and potato (31.2 %) starches were declined to 24.2-28.1 % and 26.1-29.5 %, respectively, and relative crystallinity was reduced from 35.5 to 30.0 % for corn and 34.1 to 20.2 % for potato. Pasting properties decreased significantly in both starch sources with increasing irradiation dose. EBI decreased springiness, enthalpy of retrograded starch (ΔHr) and percentage of retrogradation (R%) on corn starches, which were different from those effects observed on potato starches. Meanwhile, HP increased peak viscosity up to 312.6 RVU and 1359.3 RVU for corn and potato starches, respectively. Moreover, EBI-HP was highly responsible for the decreases in the textural, gelatinization and retrogradation properties and relative crystallinity in both corn and potato starches. These results enhance the understanding of starch functionality modified by using both physical and chemical methods, and provide further insights on food and non-food applications.

Abstract
When exposing food and feedstuff to cold atmospheric pressure plasmas (CAPP), e.g., for decontamination purposes, possible unwanted effects on the contained nutrients might occur. In the present study, we thus concentrated on CAPP-induced degrading effects on different sugars, namely glucose and sucrose. The treatments were performed using admixtures of argon and synthetic air over durations of up to 12min. Continuous degradation of sucrose and glucose was determined using ATR-FTIR and XPS analyses. OH stretching bands showed notable broadening in the ATR-FTIR spectra, which possibly indicates reduced crystallinity of the sugars caused by the CAPP treatment. In the fingerprint regions, most bands, especially the more intense C-O bands, showed decreases in peak heights. In addition, two new bands occurred after CAPP treatment. The bands were detectable in the range between 1800 and 1600cm−1 and potentially can be assigned to C=C and, after comparison with the results of the XPS measurements, O-C=O bindings. The XPS measurements also showed that the O-C=O bonds probably originated from earlier C-O bonds.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Prior to a deadly 2014 listeriosis outbreak, caramel apples were not thought to be vehicles for the foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. The purpose of this review article is to summarize what has been learned from research prompted by this outbreak. This overview includes descriptions of the two L. monocytogenes infection outbreaks related to prepackaged caramel apples and a brief discussion of apple sanitation, the production processes used to make caramel apples, and research on ways to prevent future outbreaks associated with caramel apples. A qualitative analysis of the literature and interviews with current caramel apple manufacturers were conducted. Sanitation, packaging, and storage procedures used by manufacturers in the past may not effectively inactivate L. monocytogenes from contaminated product. Novel apple sanitation methods and product formulations to control L. monocytogenes on caramel apples have been developed and, in some cases, implemented in commercial production. HIGHLIGHTS

Abstract
Rice wine, a critical fermented alcoholic beverage, has a considerable role in different cultures. It contains compounds that may have functional and nutritional health benefits. Bacteria, yeasts, and fungi commonly found in rice wines during fermentation can induce microbial spoilage and deterioration of the quality during its distribution and aging processes. It is possible to control the microbial population of rice wines using different preservation techniques that can ultimately improve their commercial shelf life. This paper reviews the potential techniques that can be used to preserve the microbial safety of rice wines while maintaining their quality attributes and further highlights the advantages and disadvantages of each technique.

Emerging Non-Thermal Technologies for the Extraction of Grape Anthocyanins. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:antiox10121863. [PMID: 34942965 PMCID: PMC8698441 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10121863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2021] [Revised: 11/19/2021] [Accepted: 11/22/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Anthocyanins are flavonoid pigments broadly distributed in plants with great potential to be used as food colorants due to their range of colors, innocuous nature, and positive impact on human health. However, these molecules are unstable and affected by pH changes, oxidation and high temperatures, making it very important to extract them using gentle non-thermal technologies. The use of emerging non-thermal techniques such as High Hydrostatic Pressure (HHP), Ultra High Pressure Homogenization (UHPH), Pulsed Electric Fields (PEFs), Ultrasound (US), irradiation, and Pulsed Light (PL) is currently increasing for many applications in food technology. This article reviews their application, features, advantages and drawbacks in the extraction of anthocyanins from grapes. It shows how extraction can be significantly increased with many of these techniques, while decreasing extraction times and maintaining antioxidant capacity.

Abstract
AIMS To isolate and enrich lignocellulolytic microbial consortia from yak (Bos grunniens) rumen and evaluate their effects on the fermentation characteristics and enzymatic hydrolysis in rice straw silage. METHODS AND RESULTS A novel microbial consortium M2 with high CMCase and xylanase activities was enriched and observed to be prone to use natural carbon sources. Its predominant genus was Enterococcus, and most carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) genes belonged to the glycosyl hydrolases class. The consortium M2 was introduced with or without combined lactic acid bacteria (XA) to rice straw silage for 60 days. Inoculating the consortium M2 notably decreased the structural carbohydrate contents and pH of rice straw silages. Treatment that combines consortium M2 and XA resulted in the highest levels of lactic acid and lignocellulose degradation. The consortium M2 alone or combined with XA significantly (p < 0.01) increased water-soluble carbohydrates (WSCs), mono- and disaccharides contents compared with the XA silage. Combined addition obviously improved the enzymatic conversion efficiency of rice straw silage with higher glucose and xylose yields (23.39 and 12.91 w/w% DM, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Ensiling pretreatment with the microbial consortium M2 in sterile rice straw improved fermentation characteristics. The combined application of consortium M2 with XA had synergistic effects on promoting the degradation of structural carbohydrates and enzymatic hydrolysis. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Rice straw is difficult to ensile because of its low WSC and high structural carbohydrate contents. The microbial consortium M2 identified herein exhibits great potential for degrading fibrous substrates, and their combination with XA provides a faster and more effective synergistic strategy for biorefinery of lignocellulosic biomass.

Aqueous and gaseous plasma applications for the treatment of mung bean seeds. Sci Rep 2021; 11:19681.

Abstract
Sprouts are particularly prone to microbial contamination due to their high nutrient content and the warm temperatures and humid conditions needed for their production. Therefore, disinfection is a crucial step in food processing as a means of preventing the transmission of bacterial, parasitic and viral pathogens. In this study, a dielectric coplanar surface barrier discharge (DCSBD) system was used for the application of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP), plasma activated water (PAW) and their combination on mung bean seeds. Germination assessments were performed in a test tube set-up filled with glass beads and the produced irrigation water. Overall, it was found that the combined seed treatment with direct air CAP (350 W) and air PAW had no negative impact on mung bean seed germination and growth, nor the concentration of secondary metabolites within the sprouts. These treatments also reduced the total microbial population in sprouts by 2.5 log CFU/g. This research reports for first time that aside from the stimulatory effect of plasma discharge on seed surface disinfection, sustained plasma treatment through irrigation of treated seeds with PAW can significantly enhance seedling growth. The positive outcome and further applications of different forms, of plasma i.e., gaseous and aqueous, in the agro-food industry is further supported by this research.

Abstract
Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (cyanoHABs) pose threats to human and animal health due to the production of harmful cyanotoxins. Microcystis aeruginosa is a common cyanobacterium associated with these blooms and is responsible for producing the potent cyclic hepatotoxin microcystin-LR (MC-LR). Concerns over the public health implications of these toxins in water supplies have increased due to rising occurrence of these blooms. High energy electron beam (eBeam) irradiation technology presents a promising strategy for the mitigation of both cyanobacterial cells and cyanotoxins within the water treatment process. However, it is imperative that both cellular and chemical responses to eBeam irradiation are understood to ensure efficient treatment. We sought to investigate the effect of eBeam irradiation on M. aeruginosa cells and MC-LR degradation. Results indicate that doses as low as 2 kGy are lethal to M. aeruginosa cells and induce cell lysis. Even lower doses are required for degradation of the parent MC-LR toxin. However, it was observed that there is a delay in cell lysis after irradiation where M. aeruginosa cells may still be metabolically active and able to synthesize microcystin. These results suggest that eBeam may be suitable for cyanoHAB mitigation in water treatment if employed following cell lysis.

Abstract
Food is a basic necessity for life, growth, survival, and maintaining a proper body function. Rising food demand leads both producers and consumers to search for alternative food sources with high nutritional value. However, food products may never be completely safe. The oxidation reaction may alter both the physicochemical and immunological properties of food products. Maillard and caramelization nonenzymatic browning reactions can play a pivotal role in food acceptance through the ways they influence quality factors such as flavor, color, texture, nutritional value, protein functionality, and digestibility. There is a multitude of adulterated foods that portray adverse risks to the human condition. To maintain food safety, the packaging material is used to preserve the quality and freshness of food products. Food safety is jeopardized by plenty of pathogens by the consumption of adulterated food resulting in multiple foodborne illnesses. Though different analytical tools are used in the analysis of food products, yet, adulterated food has repercussions for the community and is a growing issue that adversely impairs human health and well-being. Thus, pathogenic agents' rapid and effective identification is vital for food safety and security to avoid foodborne illness. This review highlights the various analytical techniques used in the analysis of food products, food structure, and quality of food along with chemical reactions in food processing. Moreover, we have also discussed the effect on health due to the consumption of adulterated food and focused on the importance of food safety, including the biodegradable packaging material.
