Abstract
Self-fermented oyster homogenates were prepared to investigate core microbes and their correlations with flavor formation mechanisms. Five bacterial and four fungal genera were identified. Correlation analysis showed that Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Kazachstania, and L. pentosus were core species for the flavor of fermented products. Four core microbes were selected for inoculation into homogenates. Twelve key aroma compounds with odor activity values >1 were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. L. plantarum and S. cerevisiae were beneficial for producing key aroma compounds such as 1-octen-3-ol, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal, and heptanal. Fermentation with four microbes resulted in significant increases in contents of Asp, Glu, Lys, inosine monophosphate, and guanosine monophosphate, which provided freshness and sweetness. Fermentation with four microbes resulted in high digestibility, antioxidant abilities, and zinc contents. This study has elucidated the mechanism of flavor formation by microbial action and provides a reference for targeted flavor control in fermented oyster products.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio vulnificus and non-O1/non-O139 Vibrio cholerae are the Vibrio spp. of highest relevance for public health in the EU through seafood consumption. Infection with V. parahaemolyticus is associated with the haemolysins thermostable direct haemolysin (TDH) and TDH-related haemolysin (TRH) and mainly leads to acute gastroenteritis. V. vulnificus infections can lead to sepsis and death in susceptible individuals. V. cholerae non-O1/non-O139 can cause mild gastroenteritis or lead to severe infections, including sepsis, in susceptible individuals. The pooled prevalence estimate in seafood is 19.6% (95% CI 13.7-27.4), 6.1% (95% CI 3.0-11.8) and 4.1% (95% CI 2.4-6.9) for V. parahaemolyticus, V. vulnificus and non-choleragenic V. cholerae, respectively. Approximately one out of five V. parahaemolyticus-positive samples contain pathogenic strains. A large spectrum of antimicrobial resistances, some of which are intrinsic, has been found in vibrios isolated from seafood or food-borne infections in Europe. Genes conferring resistance to medically important antimicrobials and associated with mobile genetic elements are increasingly detected in vibrios. Temperature and salinity are the most relevant drivers for Vibrio abundance in the aquatic environment. It is anticipated that the occurrence and levels of the relevant Vibrio spp. in seafood will increase in response to coastal warming and extreme weather events, especially in low-salinity/brackish waters. While some measures, like high-pressure processing, irradiation or depuration reduce the levels of Vibrio spp. in seafood, maintaining the cold chain is important to prevent their growth. Available risk assessments addressed V. parahaemolyticus in various types of seafood and V. vulnificus in raw oysters and octopus. A quantitative microbiological risk assessment relevant in an EU context would be V. parahaemolyticus in bivalve molluscs (oysters), evaluating the effect of mitigations, especially in a climate change scenario. Knowledge gaps related to Vibrio spp. in seafood and aquatic environments are identified and future research needs are prioritised.

Effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and storage temperature on bacterial counts, color change, fatty acids and non-volatile taste active compounds of oysters (Crassostrea ariakensis). Food Chem 2022; 372:131247. [PMID: 34627090 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2021.131247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2021] [Revised: 09/19/2021] [Accepted: 09/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The effects of HHP and storage temperature on bacterial counts, color, fatty acids and flavor compounds of oysters Crassostrea ariakensis were investigated. Counts of Vibrio vulnificus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus decreased to undetectable levels in ≥ 400 MPa-treated oysters. Storage at -20 °C significantly restrained microbial growth compared to 4 °C (P < 0.05). L* values of HHP-treated oysters significantly increased compared to raw oysters (P < 0.05). Storage slightly affected the color according to total color difference (ΔE*) values. Fatty acid profiles and betaine contents in 400 and 600 MPa-treated oysters at 0 and 15 d were almost the same as raw samples. Contents of total free amino acids (FAAs), Na+ and Ca2+ were significantly higher in 400 and 600 MPa-treated oysters than those in raw oysters at 0 d (P < 0.05), while the opposite results were observed in 5'-adenosine monophosphate (AMP), 5'-guanosine monophosphate (GMP), citric acid, succinic acid, K+ and PO43- (P < 0.05). At 400 and 600 MPa, FAAs significantly decreased after 15-d storage at 4 °C and -20 °C (P < 0.05), while no significant changes were observed in nucleotides, organic acids and inorganic ions.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 745:140795. [PMID: 32731065 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.140795] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2020] [Revised: 06/29/2020] [Accepted: 07/05/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-cholera Vibrio bacteria are a major cause of foodborne illness in the United States. Raw oysters are commonly implicated in gastroenteritis caused by pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus. In response to outbreaks in 1997-1998, the US Food and Drug Administration developed a nation-wide quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) of V. parahaemolyticus in raw oysters in 2005. The QMRA identified information gaps that new research may address. Incidence of sporadic V. parahaemolyticus illness has recently increased and, as oyster consumption increases and sea temperatures rise, V. parahaemolyticus outbreaks may become more frequent, posing health concerns. Updated and region-specific QMRAs will improve the accuracy and precision of risk of infection estimates. OBJECTIVES We identify research to support an updated QMRA of V. parahaemolyticus from oysters harvested in Chesapeake Bay and Puget Sound, focusing on observational and experimental research on post-harvest practices (PHPs) published from 2004 to 2019. METHODS A predefined search strategy was applied to PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Science.gov, NAL Agricola, and Google Scholar. Study eligibility criteria were defined using a population, intervention, comparator, and outcome statement. Reviewers independently coded abstracts for inclusion/exclusion using predefined criteria. Data were extracted and study quality and relevance evaluated based on published guidance for food safety risk assessments. Findings were synthesized using a weight of evidence approach. RESULTS Of 12,174 articles retrieved, 93 were included for full-text review. Twenty-seven studies were found to be high quality and high relevance, including studies on cold storage, high hydrostatic pressure, depuration, and disinfectant, and other PHPs. High hydrostatic pressure consistently emerged as the most effective PHP in reducing abundance of V. parahaemolyticus. DISCUSSION Limitations of the knowledge base and review approach involve the type and quantity of data reported. Future research should focus on PHPs for which few or no high quality and high relevance studies exist, such as irradiation and relaying.

Comparison of biochemical composition and non-volatile taste active compounds in raw, high hydrostatic pressure-treated and steamed oysters Crassostrea hongkongensis. Food Chem 2020; 344:128632. [PMID: 33229146 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2020.128632] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2020] [Revised: 11/10/2020] [Accepted: 11/10/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
In this study, the effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) and steam on biochemical composition and non-volatile taste active compounds of oysters Crassostrea hongkongensis were investigated. The moisture content in steamed oysters significantly decreased when compared to raw samples, subsequently their crude protein, crude lipid, glycogen and ash contents (% wet weight) were all increased (P < 0.05). In addition, though the moisture content in HHP oysters decreased, no significant differences were observed in proximate compositions compared to raw oysters, except crude protein. There were no significant differences in saturated fatty acids (SFA), monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) profiles between raw and HHP oysters, however, C20:3n6 content in HHP oysters was significantly higher than that in raw samples (P < 0.05). The PUFA profile of steamed oysters, mostly contributed by n-3 PUFA, was significantly higher than that of both raw and HHP samples (P < 0.05). Major free amino acids (FAA) (taste activity value, TAV > 1) in oysters with three treatments were alanine, glycine, glutamic acid and histidine, and their contents were significantly higher in raw and HHP groups than that in steamed group. The 5'-inosine monophosphate (IMP) and 5'-guanosine monophosphate (GMP) in HHP and steamed oysters decreased compared to raw samples, while AMP content in steam oysters were significantly increased (P < 0.05). The equivalent umami concentration (EUC) of oysters of raw, HHP and steamed groups were 8.80, 3.66 and 1.44 g MSG/100 g, respectively, with significant differences observed among different treatments (P < 0.05). Succinic acid was the major organic acid in raw and HHP oysters, while lactic acid was the major organic acid in steamed groups. Further, Na+, K+, PO43- and Cl- were the main inorganic ions (TAV > 1), and their contents were significantly higher in raw and HHP groups than that in steamed group (P < 0.05). This study demonstrated that HHP treatment slightly influenced the changes in the biochemical composition and non-volatile taste active compounds to raw oysters, compared to steamed process.

Abstract
Vibrio cholerae is an etiological cause of cholera implicated in several pandemics. Antibacterial activity of plant extracts has been established. However, these extracts exhibit activity at a concentration that may alter organoleptic attributes of water and food, hence limiting their application. In this light, there is need to device ways of reducing plant extracts' effective levels in order to widen their application. Thus, this study was conducted to improve activities of plant ethanolic extracts through combination with other generally recognized as safe antimicrobials. Combination of plant extracts with sodium acetate (NaOAc) 0.4% at pH 7.0 reduced minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of clove, lemon eucalyptus, rosemary and sage from 0.2 to 0.025%. At pH 6.4, combinations were more effective reducing MICs of clove, lemon eucalyptus, rosemary and sage from 0.2 to 0.0125% with NaOAc at 0.2%. At pH 7.0, the combination resulted in additive effect. Nevertheless, at pH 6.4, synergic effect was established. No interactive effect was observed with combinations involving glycine. Combination of plant extracts with NaOAc at mildly acidic pH creates a hurdle effect that may have potential application to control the growth of V. cholerae.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a Gram-negative bacterium that is naturally present in the marine environment. Oysters, which are water filter feeders, may accumulate this pathogen in their soft tissues, thus increasing the risk of V. parahaemolyticus infection among people who consume oysters. In this review, factors affecting V. parahaemolyticus accumulation in oysters, the route of the pathogen from primary production to consumption, and the potential effects of climate change were discussed. In addition, intervention strategies for reducing accumulation of V. parahaemolyticus in oysters were presented. A literature review revealed the following information relevant to the present study: (a) managing the safety of oysters (for human consumption) from primary production to consumption remains a challenge, (b) there are multiple factors that influence the concentration of V. parahaemolyticus in oysters from primary production to consumption, (c) climate change could possibly affect the safety of oysters, both directly and indirectly, placing public health at risk, (d) many intervention strategies have been developed to control and/or reduce the concentration of V. parahaemolyticus in oysters to acceptable levels, but most of them are mainly focused on the downstream steps of the oyster supply chain, and (c) although available regulation and/or guidelines governing the safety of oyster consumption are mostly available in developed countries, limited food safety information is available in developing countries. The information provided in this review may serve as an early warning for managing the future effects of climate change on the safety of oyster consumption.
