Food Chem 2024; 441:138332. [PMID: 38183722 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138332] [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: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2024]
Abstract
The impact of oxidized myoglobin (Mb) on myofibrillar protein (MP) oxidation and water retention was investigated. Results showed that the oxidation of Mb increased with increasing concentration of oxidized linoleic acid (OLA). In the presence of 100 mmol/L OLA, hemin iron decreased by 62.07 % compared to the control group. Further investigation showed that mild oxidation of Mb (≤10 mmol/L OLA) increased the water retention and the absolute value of the zeta potential of MP, whereas excessive oxidation (>10 mmol/L OLA) decreased these properties. With the increase of Mb oxidation, the carbonyl content in MP increased, and α-helices changed to random helix. And the tertiary structure changed. Pearson correlation analysis suggested that oxidized Mb affected the water retention of MP, which was closely related to hemin iron and non-hemin iron. In conclusion, OLA induced Mb oxidation, further promoted MP oxidation and affected its water retention.

The pro-oxidant action of high-oxygen MAP on beef patties can be counterbalanced by antioxidant compounds from common hawthorn and rose hips. Meat Sci 2023; 204:109282. [PMID: 37473715 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2023.109282] [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: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of antioxidant-rich extracts from rose hip (Rosa canina L.; RC) and hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna Jacq.; CM) at minimizing the oxidative damage to proteins and lipids in beef patties subjected to a high‑oxygen (HiOx-MAP) and vacuum (Vacuum) packaging atmosphere. The extracts of RC and CM were characterized by quantifying bioactive compounds, namely, phenolic compounds, tocopherols and vitamin C. Both fruits had high concentrations of bioactive compounds, with RC having the highest total phenolic and vitamin C content. Yet, CM was the most efficient in protecting beef patties against protein carbonylation, reducing, as a result, the instrumental toughness in cooked beef patties. The use of CM and RC extracts in beef patties significantly improved consumer purchase intention in HiOx-MAP packaging systems. The use of CM and RC extracts or their combination in future research would be an effective antioxidant means to decrease the pro-oxidative effects caused by HiOx-MAP in red meat.

Low-frequency alternating magnetic field thawing of frozen pork meat: Effects of intensity on quality properties and microstructure of meat and structure of myofibrillar proteins. Meat Sci 2023; 204:109241. [PMID: 37321052 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2023.109241] [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: 10/28/2022] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the changes in quality properties and microstructure of pork meat as well as structural variation in myofibrillar proteins (MPs) after low-frequency alternating magnetic field thawing (LF-MFT) with different intensities (1-5 mT). LF-MFT at 3-5 mT shortened the thawing time. LF-MFT treatment significantly influenced the quality properties of meat and notably improved the structure of MPs (P < 0.05), compared to atmosphere thawing (AT). Especially, among the thawing treatments, LF-MFT-4 (LF-MFT at 4 mT) had the lowest values of thawing loss and drip loss, and the least changes in the color and myoglobin content. Regarding the results of rheological properties and micrographs, an optimal gel structure and a more compact muscle fiber arrangement formed during LF-MFT-4. Moreover, LF-MFT-4 was beneficial for improving the conformation of MPs. Therefore, LF-MFT-4 reduced the deterioration of porcine quality by protecting MPs structure, indicating a potential use in the meat thawing industry.

Abstract
The effects of protein oxidation on the emulsion gel properties of myofibrillar protein (MP) in the presence of tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP) and soybean protein isolate (SPI) were investigated from the perspective of interfacial protein interactions. The results showed that the emulsifying activity and emulsion stability of MP increased by 35.2 %-181.6 % with elevated H2O2 concentrations (1-20 mM), while the gel strength and water holding capacity of MP emulsions first increased to a maximum at 5 mM H2O2 and then decreased. TSPP and SPI further reinforced the effects caused by oxidation. The emulsifying properties of MP and its emulsion gel properties were closely related to surface hydrophobicity/hydrogen bonds/hydrophobic interactions and disulfide bonds among interfacial proteins, respectively. However, these correlations became difficult to define when TSPP and SPI were introduced. The study provides a theoretical basis for the strategy development to reduce protein oxidation damage on meat product quality.

Changes in Quality and Collagen Properties of Cattle Rumen Smooth Muscle Subjected to Repeated Freeze-Thaw Cycles. Foods 2022; 11:foods11213338.

Abstract
This study revealed changes in the quality, structural and functional collagen properties of cattle rumen smooth muscle (CSM) during F-T cycles. The results showed that thawing loss, pressing loss, β-galactosidase, β-glucuronidase activity, β-sheet content, emulsifying activity index (EAI), emulsion stability index (ESI), surface hydrophobicity, and turbidity of samples were significantly (p < 0.05) increased by 108.12%, 78.33%, 66.57%, 76.60%, 118.63%, 119.57%, 57.37%, 99.14%, and 82.35%, respectively, with increasing F-T cycles. Meanwhile, the shear force, pH, collagen content, α-helix content, thermal denaturation temperature (Tmax), and enthalpy value were significantly (p < 0.05) decreased by 30.88%, 3.19%, 33.23%, 35.92%, 10.34% and 46.51%, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and SDS-PAGE results indicated that F-T cycles induced an increase in disruption of CSM muscle microstructure and degradation of collagen. Thus, repeated F-T cycles promoted collagen degradation and structural disorder in CSM, while reducing the quality of CSM, but improving the functional collagen properties of CSM. These findings provide new data support for the development, processing, and quality control of CSM.

Abstract
Freezing is commonly used to extend the shelf life of meat and meat products but may impact the overall quality of those products by inducing structural changes in myofibrillar proteins (MPs) through denaturation, chemical modification, and encouraging protein aggregation. This review covers the effect of freezing on the denaturation of MPs in terms of the effects of ice crystallization on solute concentrations, cold denaturation, and protein oxidation. Freezing-induced denaturation of MPs begins with ice crystallization in extracellular spaces and changes in solute concentrations in the unfrozen water fraction. At typical temperatures for freezing meat (lower than -18 °C), cold denaturation of proteins occurs, accompanied by an alteration in their secondary and tertiary structure. Moreover, the disruption of muscle cells triggers the release of cellular enzymes, accelerating protein degradation and oxidation. To minimize severe deterioration during the freezing and frozen storage of meat, there is a vital need to use an appropriate freezing temperature below the glass transition temperature and to avoid temperature fluctuations during storage to prevent recrystallization. Such an understanding of MP denaturation can be applied to determine the optimum freezing conditions for meat products with highly retained sensory, nutritional, and functional qualities.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate volatile compounds and quality traits of shrimp heads stored at 20 °C, 4 °C, -3 °C, and -18 °C. With increased storage time, sensory scores gradually decreased, while pH and TVB-N content showed a gradually increase trend. L* showed a decreasing and then increasing tendency. The radar chart and principal component analysis showed variation changes. Three compounds including 2-decanone, dimethyl disulphide and dimethyl tetrasulphide, four compounds including 2-pentanone, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-methylbutyric acid, and 2,3,5-trimethylpyrazine, and 3-methylbutyraldehyde were the characteristic volatiles for the samples stored at 20 °C, 4 °C, and -3 °C, respectively. Twenty-five volatile compounds were key volatile compounds, among which nine were potential classification compounds with high variable importance in projection values. Trimethylamine and 2-nonanol were selected as potential markers of spoilage. The study provides the theoretical basis for quality and volatile compound investigations for shrimp heads with further high-quality utilization.

Abstract
Preservation of meat through freezing entails the use of low temperatures to extend a product’s shelf-life, mainly by reducing the rate of microbial spoilage and deterioration reactions. Characteristics of meat that are important to be preserve include tenderness, water holding capacity, color, and flavor. In general, freezing improves meat tenderness, but negatively impacts other quality attributes. The extent to which these attributes are affected depends on the ice crystalline size and distribution, which itself is governed by freezing rate and storage temperature and duration. Although novel technology has made it possible to mitigate the negative effects of freezing, the complex nature of muscle tissue makes it difficult to accurately and consistently predict outcome of meat quality following freezing. This review provides an overview of the current understanding of energy and heat transfer during freezing and its effect on meat quality. Furthermore, the review provides an overview of the current novel technologies utilized to improve the freezing process.

Abstract
This study was conducted to analyze the effects of multiple freeze-thaw (F-T) cycles on microstructural disruption, water migration, protein oxidation and textural properties of cuttlefish. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) showed an increase in the proportion of free water in cuttlefish flesh. It was also observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) that multiple F-T cycles increased the gap between muscle fibers and disrupted the original intact and compact structure. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy, Ca2+ATPase content, sulfhydryl content and free amino acid content indirectly prove that multiple F-T cycles can lead to the destruction of the a-helical structure of cuttlefish myofibril protein and the content of irregular curls increased, protein aggregation and degradation, and tryptophan oxidation. In addition, after repeated freezing and thawing, the water holding capacity, whiteness value, elasticity and chewiness of cuttlefish flesh decreased, the total volatile base nitrogen content increased. It can be concluded that the freeze-thaw cycles are very harmful to the quality of the frozen foods, so it is important to keep the temperature stable in the low-temperature food logistics.
