Abstract
BACKGROUND Java tea is widely consumed and has multiple health effects. This study established a steam explosion (SE) pretreatment method to prepare Java tea-leaf powders. The physicochemical, functional properties, phenolic extraction, and antioxidant activity of Java tea-leaf powders produced by simple and SE-assisted milling methods were investigated. RESULTS In comparison with simple milling, SE pretreatment broke the cell wall effectively and reduced the particle size of Java tea-leaf powders. Steam explosion-treated powders showed higher values for sensory signals, bulk and tap density, and for the water solubility index. After SE treatment, the adsorption capacities to glucose, soybean oil, and cholesterol of leaf powders were increased by up to 55, 95, and 80% respectively. The extracts from SE-treated powders also showed higher total polyphenol content and antioxidant activity. CONCLUSION Steam explosion treatment is helpful for the improvement of functional properties and antioxidant activity, which can benefit the development and application of Java tea-leaf powders. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Mei S, Ding J, Chen X. Identification of differential volatile and non-volatile compounds in coffee leaves prepared from different tea processing steps using HS-SPME/GC-MS and HPLC-Orbitrap-MS/MS and investigation of the binding mechanism of key phytochemicals with olfactory and taste receptors using molecular docking. Food Res Int 2023; 168:112760. [PMID: 37120211 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2022] [Revised: 03/03/2023] [Accepted: 03/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023]
Abstract
Tea processing steps affected the proximate composition, enzyme activity and bioactivity of coffee leaves; however, the effects of different tea processing steps on the volatiles, non-volatiles, color, and sensory characteristics of coffee leaves have yet been demonstrated. Here the dynamic changes of volatile and non-volatile compounds in different tea processing steps were investigated using HS-SPME/GC-MS and HPLC-Orbitrap-MS/MS, respectively. A total of 53 differential volatiles (alcohol, aldehyde, ester, hydrocarbon, ketone, oxygen heterocyclic compounds, phenol, and sulfur compounds) and 50 differential non-volatiles (xanthone, flavonoid, organic acid, amino acid, organic amine, alkaloid, aldehyde, and purine et al.) were identified in coffee leaves prepared from different processing steps. Kill-green, fermentation, and drying steps significantly influenced the volatiles; however, kill-green, rolling, and drying steps significantly affected the color of coffee leaves and their hot water infusion. The coffee leaf tea that was prepared without the kill-green process was found to have a more pleasant taste as compared to the tea that was prepared with the kill-green process. This can be attributed to the fact that the former contained lower levels of flavonoids, chlorogenic acid, and epicatechin, but had higher levels of floral, sweet, and rose-like aroma compounds. The binding interactions between the key differential volatile and non-volatile compounds and the olfactory and taste receptors were also investigated. The key differential volatiles, pentadecanal and methyl salicylate generate fresh and floral odors by activating olfactory receptors, OR5M3 and OR1G1, respectively. Epicatechin showed a high affinity to the bitter receptors, including T2R16, T2R14, and T2R46. Since the specific content of differential compounds in different samples varies greatly, the dose-effect and structure-function relationships of these key compounds and the molecular mechanism of the odor and taste of coffee leaf tea need to be further studied.

Abstract
Microwave radiation is one of the main heating methods for food processing, especially affecting the color quality of colorful foods. This work presents the effect of microwave radiation on the green color loss of green tea powder (GTP) by the color description (L*, a*, b*, and Ha of green tea powder, L*:whiteness/darkness, a*: redness/greenness, and b*: yellowness/blueness; Ha derived from Hunter a and b could visually describe the color space) of the Hunter color system. First, the L*, a*, and b* were determined from the GTP samples treated with various microwave powers with the change of time to investigate the kinetic of color loss. Then, the L*, a*, and b*and temperature of GTP samples with serious thickness treated with constant microwave power (700 W) for a different time were determined to study the effect of sample thickness on the color loss. Finally, the chemicals that contributed to color change in the GTP samples treated with mild, moderate, and severe radiation were analyzed. The results showed that L*, |a*| (|a*|was the absolute value of a*), b*, and Ha decreased with the power increase in microwave radiation, and their changes conformed to the first-order kinetics. The activation energies (Ea) of different thickness GTP for change of L*, a*, b*, and Ha values could be predicted with the fitting models, and Ea for 20 mm-thick GTP were approximately 1/5, 1/8, 1/8, and 1/13 of those for 4 mm-thick GTP. The color loss was mainly caused by the Mg2+ loss of chlorophylls and the formation of derivates under mild radiation, the degradation of chlorophylls and the formation of theaflavin from catechins under moderate radiation, and the degradation of chlorophylls and their derivates accompanied by Maillard reaction between reducing sugar and amino acids under severe radiation. The results indicate that sample thickness and radiation time are two key parameters to keeping the color of GTP in food processing and microwave pasteurization.

Abstract
AbstractThe effects of microwave-convective drying as an efficient drying method, on drying kinetics of hazelnuts were studied. Drying experiments were conducted at three temperature (40, 50 and 60°C) and microwave power (0, 450 and 900 W) levels. The moisture ratio and the temperature of the hazelnuts were recorded during the drying. The results showed that microwave power had a more dominant effect than drying air temperature. Mathematical modeling was performed in order to predict the moisture changes during drying process. It was concluded that two term and Midilli et al. models were the best models to predict the drying kinetics of hazelnut in different conditions. The effective moisture diffusivities varied from 3.80327×10‒8to 1.71233×10‒6m2/s and had an increasing polynomial relationship with temperature and microwave power. The activation energy was also between 15.61675 and 41.0053 kJ/mol with a second-order relationship with microwave power.

Abstract
Abstract
Thin-layer drying kinetics of pistachio nuts were examined experimentally as a function of drying conditions in a fluidized bed dryer with microwave pretreatment. Four drying specifications of diffusivity, shrinkage, specific energy consumption and total color change were calculated and the effects of parameters were studied. Numerous experimentations were conducted at three levels of air temperature (40, 55, 70 °C), air velocity (1.2, 2.93, 4.01 m/s), and microwave power (270, 450, 630 W). The variation ranges of diffusivity, shrinkage, energy consumption and color change were recorded from 5.01×10–10 to 5.07×10–9 m2/s, from 26.95 % to 13.13 %, from 1.04 to 9.23 kWh and from 10.44 to 17.17, respectively. According to response surface methodology, optimum condition of drying process occurred at microwave power of 630, air temperature of 70 ˚C, and air velocity of 1.2 m/s. In this optimum point, the values of diffusivity, shrinkage, specific energy consumption and total color change were 4.865×10–9, 14.22 %, 2.164 kWh and 12.312, respectively.
