Abstract
Electromagnetic waves are frequently used for food processing with commercial or domestic type microwave ovens at present. Microwaves cause molecular movement by the migration of ionic particles or rotation of dipolar particles. Considering the potential applications of microwave technique in food industry, it is seen that microwaves have many advantages such as saving time, better final product quality (more taste, color, and nutritional value), and rapid heat generation. Although microwave treatment used for food processing with developing technologies have a positive effect in terms of time, energy, or nutrient value, it is also very important to what extent they affect the textural properties of the food that they apply to. For this purpose, in this study, it has been investigated that the effects of commonly used microwave treatments such as drying, heating, baking, cooking, thawing, toasting, blanching, frying, and sterilization on the textural properties of food. In addition, this study has also covered the challenges of microwave treatments and future work. In conclusion, microwave treatments cause energy saving due to a short processing time. Therefore, it can be said that it affects the textural properties positively. However, it is important that the microwave processing conditions used are chosen appropriately for each food material.

Freeze-Thawing Treatment as a Simple Way to Tune the Gel Property and Digestibility of Minced Meat from Red Swamp Crayfish (Procambarus clarkiix). Foods 2022; 11:foods11060837. [PMID: 35327260 PMCID: PMC8950141 DOI: 10.3390/foods11060837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/10/2022] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
The effects of freezing methods, including rapid freezing (RF) or slow freezing (SF), combined with thawing methods, e.g., water immersing thawing (WT) or cold thawing (CT), on the meat yield, drip loss, gel properties, and digestive properties of meat detached from red swamp crayfish were investigated. RF greatly reduced the freezing time compared to SF, and the thawing time of frozen crayfish was obviously shortened by WT in comparison to CT. RF and CT improved the meat yield but increased the drip loss, probably as a result of the greater protein denaturation or degradation. A soft and flexible gel was obtained by SF-CT, while a hard one was achieved by RF-WT. An SEM analysis showed that SF resulted in rough and irregular microstructures with larger pore sizes. Freeze-thawing led to an increase in the β-sheet content at the expense of α-helix and variations in the microenvironment of tyrosine and tryptophan residues in protein molecules of the gels, which was more pronounced in the SF-CT group. Moreover, freeze-thawing could cause enhanced protein digestibility but reduce the antioxidant activity of gels. These findings underline the promise of the freezing-thawing treatment in tuning the gel-based meat products of crayfish.

Food Chem 2021; 374:131737. [PMID: 34920408 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.131737] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2021] [Revised: 11/04/2021] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
The effects of different liquid nitrogen freezing (LNF) temperatures (-35, -55, -75, -95, and -115 °C) on the freezing rate, physicochemical properties, and microstructure of golden pompano (Trachinotus ovatus) were evaluated in the present study. The results showed that the total freezing time of golden pompano was significantly shortened using LNF (P < 0.05). Compared with other freezing methods, the cooking loss and L* values (lightness) of -95 °C LNF golden pompano were significantly lower, the false-colour image was much redder and brighter, the loss and mobility of water in fish muscle were inhibited, the water holding capacity and hardness were higher, and the muscle microstructure was comparatively intact. Therefore, -95 °C LNF effectively shortened the freezing time and improved the muscle qualities of frozen golden pompano.
