RESUMO

To analyze the effect of various drying treatments (microwave drying (MD), hot air drying (HAD), vacuum drying (VD), and vacuum freeze drying (VFD)) on taste compounds in Penaeus vannamei, relevant indicators such as free amino acids, 5'-nucleotides, and organic acids were performed. Multidimensional infrared spectroscopy (MM-IR) results found that there were notable variations in taste properties of P. vannamei. There were 18 autocorrelation peaks in 3400-900 cm-1 were screened using second-derivative infrared spectroscopy (SD-IR) and two-dimensional correlation infrared spectroscopy (2DCOS-IR). Variations in functional groups were the major contributors to taste profiles. The TAV of glutamic acid (Glu), guanine (GMP), and inosinemonphosphate (IMP) were greater than one and had notable impacts on taste profiles. VD had the highest equivalent umami value, followed by VFD, HAD, and MD. This study may provide a theoretical guide for the production of dried P. vannamei products on an industrial scale.

RESUMO

To identify the key amino acids (AAs) affecting the allergenicity of hemocyanin (HC) allergens from Chinese mitten crabs, in this study, two epitopes, P1-SHFTGSKSNPEQR and P2-LSPGANTITR were employed and four potential key AAs (P1: F3 and N9 and P2: N6 and R10) were predicted. Mast cell and mouse models revealed that four mutants induced lower levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) and Th2 type cytokines (15.47-49.89 %), proving that F3, N9, N6, and R10 were the key AAs of two epitopes. Mutants reduce allergic responses via the Th2 pathway. However, the roles of every key AA affecting allergenicity were different (P1-F3 > N9 and P2-N6 > R10). In addition, lower transport and higher efflux were observed in the mutants during transport absorption by Caco-2 cells. The allergenicity of HC was stronger when the transport absorption efficiency of epitopes and mutants was higher and their efflux was lower. Our study provides a novel method for revealing the allergenic molecular mechanisms of food allergens.

RESUMO

This study examined the effect of Flavourzyme and Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) on protein degradation and flavor development during grass carp fermentation. The control groups comprised natural fermentation and fermentation with L. plantarum. Compared with the two control samples, those exposed to combined Flavourzyme and L. plantarum fermentation exhibited lower moisture content and enhanced protein hydrolysis, which accelerated the production of water-soluble taste substances (trichloroacetic acid-soluble peptides and free amino acids). The electronic tongue and electronic nose results indicated that the grass carp subjected to combined fermentation way displayed a more intense umami taste and aroma. Moreover, the sensory evaluation results confirmed that the combined fermentation method significantly improved the taste and odor attributes of fermented grass carp. In conclusion, combined fermentation with Flavourzyme and L. plantarum may effectively reduce fermentation time and enhance the flavor of fermented grass carp products.

RESUMO

In this study, the correlation between protein phosphorylation and deterioration in the quality of tilapia during storage in ice was examined by assessing changes in texture, water-holding capacity (WHC), and biochemical characteristics of myofibrillar protein throughout 7 days of storage. The hardness significantly decreased from 471.50 to 252.17 g, whereas cooking and drip losses significantly increased from 26.5% to 32.6% and 2.9% to 9.1%, respectively (P < 0.05). Myofibril fragmentation increased, while myofibrillar protein sulfhydryl content and Ca2+-ATPase activity decreased from 119.33 to 89.29 µmol/g prot and 0.85 to 0.46 µmolPi/mg prot/h, respectively (P < 0.05). Correlation analysis revealed that the myofibrillar protein phosphorylation level was positively correlated with hardness and Ca2+-ATPase activity but negatively correlated with WHC. Myofibrillar protein phosphorylation affects muscle contraction by influencing the dissociation of actomyosin, thereby regulating hardness and WHC. This study provides novel insights for the establishment of quality control strategies for tilapia storage based on protein phosphorylation.

RESUMO

The effects of microwave drying (MD), hot air drying (HAD), vacuum hot air drying (VD), and vacuum freeze drying (VFD) on the volatile profiles of Penaeus vannamei were investigated. A total of 89 and 94 volatile compounds were identified by headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) and monolithic material sorptive extraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (MMSE-GC-MS), respectively. Orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) and variable influence on projection (VIP) models were utilized to select characteristic volatiles and key marker compounds (e.g., octanal, 1-octen-3-ol, 2-methyl-butanal, 2-ethyl-furan, and trimethyl-pyrazine) to discriminate among four drying methods. Based on synthesis of odor descriptions and sensory evaluation, it was found that P. vannamei via MD, HAD, and VD greatly reduced the fishy and generated roasted, fatty, and smoked odors. This study systematically analyzed the aroma characteristics of four traditional dried P. vannamei products, which may provide theoretical guidance for industrial production.

RESUMO

The purpose of this study was to investigate the volatile flavor changes in silver carp mince (SCM) gel glycated with different reducing sugars (glucose, L-arabinose, and xylose) based on E-nose, GC-IMS, and sensory evaluation. These results showed that glycation reduced the fishy smell of SCM gel and increased the meaty, toasty, and burnt smell. A total of 10 volatile compounds were considered as characteristic flavor compounds and potential markers. Among them, the main contributors of fishy included hexanal, heptanal, n-nonanal, octanal, etc. Toasty and burnt were mainly related to the production of 3-methylbutanal and furfurol. These results heralded that glycation could be used to improve the volatile flavor of SCM. This research provided a theoretical basis and technical support for glycation in aquatic food flavor quality control, aquatic pre-made food development, and aquatic leisure food processing.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The taste of fish is highly dependent on the composition of free amino acids (FAAs) and nucleotides. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of long-term frozen storage periods (-18 °C, up to 6 months) and thawing methods [water thawing (WT, 25 °C), air thawing (AT, 25 °C), and chilled air thawing (CAT, 4 °C)] on the taste quality of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fillets. RESULTS: The results showed that increase in bitter FAAs of CAT samples was 150.57% at 6 months of storage, which was lower than that of AT and WT. Glycine was the most abundant FAA and CAT maintained the highest sweet FAAs (249.90 mg/100 g). Additionally, the inosine monophosphate (IMP) of CAT samples were 1.18 and 1.09 times higher than that of WT and AT, respectively, at a frozen period of 6 months. In particular, the increase in equivalent umami concentration (EUC) values ranged from 24.25% to 103.16% in the three groups during the first 2 months. Data from principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least-squares discrimination analysis (OPLS-DA) indicated that the taste quality was highly correlated with high levels of FAAs, hypoxanthine inosine (HxR) and hypoxanthine (Hx) as the storage time progressed. CONCLUSION: In general, CAT is beneficial in maintaining the taste quality of tilapia fillets during frozen storage, and frozen durations for 2 months enhances the umami flavor. This study provides useful information for the preservation of frozen aquatic products during the storage and thawing, and enrich the theoretical knowledge of the flavor chemistry of fish products. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Potentilla anserina L. is rich in various nutrients, active ingredients and unique flavor, comprising a natural nutrition and health food. However, its application in aquatic food has been rarely reported. Therefore, the effects of Potentilla anserina L. powder (PAP) on gel properties and volatile flavor profile of silver carp surimi were investigated. RESULTS: The gel strength and water-holding capacity of the surimi gels were significantly improved (P < 0.05), and the whiteness and cooking loss of all the samples decreased slightly with the increase in PAP content. The addition of PAP shortened the relaxation time (T2) of the surimi gels and converted some of the free water into immobile or bound water, which resulted in a better immobilization of water in the surimi. Scanning electron microscopy images demonstrated that the network of surimi gels with PAP added was denser and had a smoother surface compared to the control. Volatile components (VCs) analysis showed that 33 VCs were identified in the surimi gel samples with different additions of PAP, among which aldehydes, alcohols and esters were the major VCs, accounting for more than 50% of the VCs in the surimi gels. PAP addition reduced the fishy and rancid flavor compounds in surimi gels, such as 1-propanol, 1-octen-3-ol, etc., and promoted the production of aldehydes, alcohols, esters and other flavor substances. CONCLUSION: These results of the present study provide theoretical support for the investigation and development of new nutrient-health-flavored surimi products. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

RESUMO

In this study, edible Pickering emulsions stabilized with GMP particles were prepared for the first time using low-value grass carp myofibrillar protein (GMP). To elucidate the emulsion formation mechanism, the grass carp myofibrillar protein particles were first characterized, and the results showed that the lyophilized GMP particles had an irregular polyhedral structure and were amphiphilic nanoparticles. The stability of GMP-based emulsions tended to stabilize with the increase of GMP concentration at an appropriate oil-to-water volume ratio, with a decrease in droplet particle size and an increase in water-holding capacity, storage stability, and rheological stability, whereas the phenomenon of droplet aggregation after storage appeared at 4.0% additive level. Therefore, appropriate concentrations of GMP at a certain oil-to-water volume ratio can stabilize Pickering emulsions, which have an important future as a potential food-grade active substance delivery carrier for biological applications.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The present study aimed to investigate the cryoprotective effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) replacing sucrose on surimi during frozen storage. Substitution or partial substitution of 0.1% EGCG for sucrose (1.5%) was added to surimi, and the surimi samples without and with commercial cryoprotectants (4% sucrose and 4% sorbitol) were used as the control group. RESULTS: The results obtained suggest that, with the increase in frozen storage time, the structural performance of surimi protein gradually weakened (e.g. the decrease in the surface hydrophobicity, the increase in the total sulfhydryl and solubility, and the protein myosin heavy chain bands became shallow) and surimi gel quality gradually deteriorated (e.g. the decrease in water-holding capacity, gel strength and all texture profile attributes). However, compared with the other three group surimi samples during the frozen period, the surimi proteins with partial replacement of sucrose by EGCG had a higher total sulfhydryl group content and solubility of proteins, as well as lower surface hydrophobicity of protein, suggesting that the addition of EGCG as a partial substitute for sucrose can enhance the antifreeze ability of surimi. Meanwhile, the surimi gel with the partial replacement of sucrose by EGCG had a higher water retention capacity, gel strength and texture attributes (e.g. hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and resilience), indicating that the addition of EGCG as a partial substitute for sucrose can inhibit the deterioration of surimi gel quality. CONCLUSION: Overall, EGCG partially replacing sucrose can play an alternative cryoprotectant with a lower sweetness to prevent the quality of surimi from deteriorating. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

RESUMO

The effects of ultrasonic power (0, 150, 300, 450, and 600 W) on the extraction yield and the structure and rheological properties of pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) from albacore skin were investigated. Compared with the conventional pepsin extraction method, ultrasonic treatment (UPSC) significantly increased the extraction yield of collagen from albacore skin, with a maximum increase of 8.56%. The sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis revealed that peptides of low molecular weight were produced when the ultrasonic power exceeded 300 W. Meanwhile, secondary structure, tertiary structure, and X-ray diffraction analyses showed that the original triple helix structure of collagen was intact after the ultrasonic treatment. The collagen solutions extracted under different ultrasonic powers had significant effects on the dynamic frequency sweep, but a steady shear test suggested that the collagen extracted at 150 W had the best viscosity. These results indicate that an ultrasonic power between 150 and 300 W can improve not only the extraction yield of natural collagen, but also the rheological properties of the collagen solution without compromising the triple helix structure.

RESUMO

Protein hydrolysates from sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) gonads are rich in active materials with remarkable angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity. Alcalase was used to hydrolyze sea cucumber gonads, and the hydrolysate was separated by the ultrafiltration membrane to produce a low-molecular-weight peptide component (less than 3 kDa) with good ACE inhibitory activity. The peptide component (less than 3 kDa) was isolated and purified using a combination method of ACE gel affinity chromatography and reverse high-performance liquid chromatography. The purified fractions were identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and the resulting products were filtered using structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) to obtain 20 peptides. Of those, three noncompetitive inhibitory peptides (DDQIHIF with an IC50 value of 333.5 µmol·L-1, HDWWKER with an IC50 value of 583.6 µmol·L-1, and THDWWKER with an IC50 value of 1291.8 µmol·L-1) were further investigated based on their favorable pharmacochemical properties and ACE inhibitory activity. Molecular docking studies indicated that the three peptides were entirely enclosed within the ACE protein cavity, improving the overall stability of the complex through interaction forces with the ACE active site. The total free binding energies (ΔGtotal) for DDQIHIF, HDWWKER, and THDWWKER were -21.9 Kcal·mol-1, -71.6 Kcal·mol-1, and -69.1 Kcal·mol-1, respectively. Furthermore, a short-term assay of antihypertensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) revealed that HDWWKER could significantly decrease the systolic blood pressure (SBP) of SHRs after intravenous administration. The results showed that based on the better antihypertensive activity of the peptide in SHRs, the feasibility of targeted affinity purification and computer-aided drug discovery (CADD) for the efficient screening and preparation of ACE inhibitory peptide was verified, which provided a new idea of modern drug development method for clinical use.

RESUMO

This study was aim to investigate the influencing mechanism of ultrasonic treatment on the interaction between volatile aldehydes and myosin. The results showed that when the mass concentration ratio of myosin to heptanal/hexanal was 1:0.3, ultrasonic treatment could enhance the binding capacity of myosin to heptanal/hexanal, especially the binding of myosin to hexanal. The entropy and enthalpy values of their interaction were negative, indicating that the interaction was mainly driven by hydrogen bond and van der Waals force. After ultrasonic treatment, the fluorescence wavelength of myosin-heptanal/hexanal complex was redshifted, the α-helix content was increased, while its roughness values, particle size and the polydispersity index were decreased. These demonstrated that ultrasonic treatment was conducive to myosin binding to heptanal/hexanal, thereby restraining the release of volatile flavor compounds from myosin, which could provide new insights for the regulation of volatile flavor compounds.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Glycation is a green processing technology. Based on our previous studies, glycation with l-arabinose and xylose was beneficial to enhance the texture properties of silver carp mince (SCM) gels. However, the possible enhancement mechanism remained unclear. Therefore, in this study, SCM gels with different types of reducing sugar (glucose, l-arabinose, and xylose) were prepared based on our previous study. The possible mechanism of texture enhancement of SCM gels was analyzed by investigating the changes in water distribution, protein structures, and microstructure in the gel system. RESULTS: The glycation of l-arabinose and xylose enhanced the hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and resilience of SCM gels. Hardness increased from 1883.04 (control group) to 3624.54 (l-arabinose group) and 4348.18 (xylose group). Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) showed that glycation promoted the tight binding of immobilized water to proteins. Raman spectroscopic analysis showed that glycation increased the surface hydrophobicity and promoted the formation of disulfide bonds. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that glycation promoted the formation of uniform and dense three-dimensional network structure in SCM gels. CONCLUSION: In summary, glycation enhanced the binding ability of immobilized water to proteins, improved the surface hydrophobicity, promoted the formation of disulfide bonds, and led to a more uniform and dense gel network structure of proteins, thus enhancing the texture properties of SCM gels. This research provided a theoretical basis for a better understanding of the mechanism of the effect of glycation on the quality of gel products and also provided technical support for the application of l-arabinose and xylose in new functional gel foods. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

RESUMO

Excessive intake of sodium chloride may bring a series of diseases; as a result, reduced-salt surimi gels have gained growing popularity for sodium reduction. This paper studied soy protein isolate (SPI, 2.0%, 4.0%, and 6.0%, w/w) as a gel enhancer for reduced-salt silver carp surimi. Compared with the control (2.0% NaCl), the addition of SPI significantly increased (P < 0.05) the total SH content, hydrophobic interaction force, disulfide bond, hardness, gel strength, and water-holding capacity of the gels. During the thermal denaturation process, SPI and myofibrillar protein jointly participated in the formation of the gel network, resulting in a G' value increase at 90 °C, forming a denser/more stable gel network structure. In vitro pepsin digestion results showed the digestibility of the reduced-salt gel with SPI was higher than that of the control. Therefore, appropriate SPI addition can improve the gel performance of reduced-salt surimi gel without affecting digestion and absorption.

RESUMO

Polysaccharide-based nanoparticles formed by the polyelectrolyte complexation between chitosan (CS) and flaxseed gum (FG) was developed in this work, and it was further used as a carrier for bighead carp peptide (BCP) delivery. The CS molecular weight (MW) of 50 kDa and CS/FG mass ratio of 1:2 at pH 3.5 were optimal conditions for the NP preparation, with the minimum particle size (∼155.1 nm) and the maximum BCP encapsulation efficiency (60.3 %). The BCP-loaded CS/FG NPs exhibited the smallest particle size (175.8 nm). Both CS/FG NPs and CS/FG-BCP NPs exhibited roughly uniform spherical shape. FT-IR spectra confirmed the existence of hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions in the nanoparticles. The BCP-loaded NPs displayed a higher thermal stability than BCP. Moreover, the release of BCP was controllable and dose-dependent, following a first-order kinetics model. These findings suggested that our CS/FG NPs are a promising carrier for bioactive peptide delivery.

RESUMO

Hemocyanin in crustaceans is an allergen for humans. However, little information was available on its molecular, structural and allergenic properties. In this study, the purified natural protein was identified as Eriocheir sinensis HC by LC-MS/MS, which was allergenic because its reaction with the serum IgE of crustacean patients. Results of the molecular properties showed that, HC was resistant to trypsin digestion, but not a heat-stable protein. Boiling (55.05 ± 3.50 %) and steaming (66.84 ± 1.65 %) induced an increase in ß-sheet and decreased allergenicity of HC. By comparing the amino acid sequences of eight crustaceans, HC was found to be highly conserved. Five epitopes of HC were identified and validated by murine sensitization model, and two of them (P3 and P10) were exactly as the predicted by six types of bioinformatics. Multiple bioinformatics analysis combining with murine sensitization model seemed to be effective way for identification of allergenic epitopes.

RESUMO

The physicochemical properties of semi-dried Takifugu obscurus fillets in cold air drying (CAD), hot air drying (HAD), and cold and hot air combined drying (CHACD) were analyzed based on pH, water state, lipid oxidation, protein degradation, and microstructure, using a texture analyzer, low-field nuclear magnetic resonance, thiobarbituric acid, frozen sections, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and differential scanning calorimetry. Water binding to the samples was enhanced by all three drying methods, and the immobilized water content of CHACD was between that of HAD and CAD. The pH of the semi-dried fillets was improved by CHACD. When compared to HAD and CAD, CHACD improved the springiness and chewiness of the fillets, especially cold air drying for 90 min (CAD-90), with values of 0.97 and 59.79 g, respectively. The muscle fibers were arranged compactly and clearly in CAD-90, having higher muscle toughness. CHACD reduced the drying time and degree of lipid oxidation compared to HAD and CAD. CAD better preserved protein composition, whereas HAD and CHACD promoted actin production; CHACD had a higher protein denaturation temperature (74.08-74.57 °C). CHACD results in better physicochemical properties than HAD or CAD, including shortened drying time, reduced lipid oxidation, enhanced protein stability, and denser tissue structure. These results provide a theoretical basis for selecting the appropriate drying method for T. obscurus in industrial applications.

RESUMO

Complex microbial communities contribute significantly to the flavor formation of traditional fermented fish products. However, the relationship between microorganisms and flavor formation in traditional fermented grass carp products is still unclear. In this study, the diversity and succession of microbial communities and the variation of volatile compounds during natural fermentation of grass carp were analyzed using high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA and headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS), respectively. The core functional microorganism and key volatile compounds were identified, and their potential relationship was revealed using a correlation network model analysis. The microbial community analysis result showed that the microbial diversity during natural fermentation of grass carp decreased markedly with increasing fermentation time, and Lactiplantibacillus, Staphylococcus, and Enterobacter were the dominant genera in naturally fermented grass carp. HS-SPME-GC-MS analysis result showed that 45 volatile compounds were identified from fermented samples, among which 13 compounds (e.g., hexanal, heptanal, nonanal, decanal, 3-octanone, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 1-heptanol, 1-octen-3-ol, 1-octanol, ethyl acetate, 3-methyl-1-butanol acetate, and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol) were identified as the key volatile compounds. Additionally, the correlation network model analysis result revealed that Lactiplantibacillus showed significantly positive correlations with most of the key volatile compounds, making an important contribution to the formation of volatile flavor in naturally fermented grass carp. This study may lead to an understanding of the role of core functional microorganisms in the formation of volatile flavor during the natural fermentation of grass carp and provide some theoretical guidance for the industrial production of high-quality fermented grass carp products.

RESUMO

The evolution of quality attributes and their association with the protein properties of lightly tilapias fillets salted with different replacement proportions of NaCl with KCl (0%, 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, 100%) at the same ionic strength were investigated. KCl replacements using optimal substitution (50% of KCl) contributed to maintaining desired quality properties. Further, KCl replacement (about 50~70% of KCl) led to the insolubilization and weakened stability of myofibrillar proteins, represented by the unfolding of the myofibrillar protein, increased surface hydrophilic points, and strengthened internal protein-protein interaction, resulting in the structurally reinforced hardness and lower water-holding capacity. Excessive replacement (more than 70% of KCl) showed apparent deterioration in taste quality, coloration, and hardness received by sensory sensation caused by immoderate hydrolysis and aggravated oxidation of the myofibrillar protein. In this sense, insights into KCl replacements on protein properties might be a positive approach to improving quality attributes of lightly salted tilapias fillets.
