ABSTRACT

Cooked and peeled cold-water shrimp (Pandalus jordani) naturally contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes were obtained from a processor for a series of studies to determine the level of contamination and growth characteristics of this bacterium in the naturally contaminated product. L. monocytogenes was isolated from every 25-g sample of individually quick frozen (IQF) shrimp that was tested. The level of contamination in each composite sample ranged from 5 to 16 colony forming units (CFU) per 25 g. When individual shrimp taken from the 25-g sample portions were tested separately, samples positive for L. monocytogenes ranged from 1 of 12 to 5 of 15 shrimp tested. The project also evaluated the effectiveness of three methods to inactivate the bacterium: ozone, chlorine dioxide, and steam as possible product reconditioning strategies. Ozone and chlorine dioxide were both found to be ineffective reconditioning treatments for shrimp naturally contaminated with L. monocytogenes. Experiments with steam conducted at the laboratory and later at the shrimp processing plant verified that shrimp contaminated with L. monocytogenes could be safely reconditioned by steam pasteurization. Steam was used successfully to pasteurize several thousand pounds of contaminated shrimp in the processing plant. When the naturally contaminated product was packaged in either oxygen-permeable or impermeable films and stored at 5°C and 10°C, the product was deemed spoiled by sensory evaluation after 9 days of storage, at which time the L. monocytogenes population were 3 × 104 CFU per g. By comparison, when an isolate (strain 4311) from naturally contaminated shrimp was inoculated onto the pasteurized shrimp at a concentration of 12 cells /25g, the L. monocytogenes population reached 3.0 × 108 per g after 9 days of storage. The pasteurization process used in this study would not be effective in inactivation of Clostridium botulinum. Ready-to-eat-shrimp must therefore be stored below 3°C or frozen.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The production of Greenshell mussel (Perna canaliculus) products involves a heating process, known as a blanching or conditioning step, which facilitates opening and inhibits enzymes which can reduce the shelf-life of mussel products.

To determine whether this initial heating process was also listeri-cidal, thermal death times were determined for seven strains of Listeria monocytogenes in raw Greenshell mussels. D-values at 58, 59, 60,61 and 62CC were calculated to be 17.19, 11.32, 7.46, 4.91, and 3.24 minutes respectively, giving a z value of 5.52°C. This information combined with information on the core temperatures of mussels during processing will enable processors to implement processing regimes to ensure the elimination of any L. monocytogenes cells associated with the raw product. Such a processing regime has the additional benefit of reducing the carriage of pathogens into the processing facility.  相似文献

Abstract

The present study was undertaken to determine potential sources of Listeria monocytogenes contamination through statistical analysis of L. monocytogenes results from lobster and snow crab samples and Listeria spp. results from environmental swabs. The objectives were (1) to compare crustacean analysis records for relationships between presence/absence of L. monocytogenes and crustacean species, year, total aerobes, staphylococci and fecal coli-form; and (2) to identify sites prone to Listeria spp. contamination. There were no significant differences in L. monocytogenes incidence between lobster and snow crab nor between five consecutive years of survey. Total aerobes and staphylococci counts were significantly associated with incidence of L. monocytogenes; fecal coliform counts were not. On surfaces in contact with the processed product, Listeria spp. were mostly found within crab crushers, drum meat separators, shucking machines, on aprons, gloves, work tables and knives. Higher incidence of Listeria spp. were found on surfaces not in direct contact with the processed product such as truck boxes, foot stools, floors, drains and employee boots and pants.  相似文献

High pressure processing (HPP) is a nonthermal processing technology that can inactivate foodborne viruses. This study assessed the protective effects of food components on virus inactivation by HPP in a seafood salad model. Virus-inoculated seafood samples (cod, shrimp, tuna, and clams) with or without mayonnaise were pressure-treated at 5°C. The seafood salad provided a protective effect on HPP inactivation compared to cell culture medium. Inactivation in seafood salad varied greatly due to the complex nature of the food matrix. When seafood salad ingredients were isolated, mayonnaise alone had a 2.0-log10 PFU/g protective effect for all viruses, unlike albumin, which did not affect virus inactivation, providing some insight into the roles individual ingredients may play on HPP inactivation of viruses in foods.  相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes results in potential food safety concerns in ready-to-eat refrigerated products. Cold-smoked salmon is a food considered to be at high risk for Listeria spp. contamination for which a mild heat treatment or pasteurization step might be helpful to reduce microbial levels. Cold-smoked salmon was inoculated with a cocktail of four strains (L. monocytogenes: ATCC19114, 7644, and 19113, and L. innocua: ATCC51742) and inactivation curves obtained at 58, 60, 62, 64, and 66°C using capillary tube methods. Inactivation results showed typical log linear trends (R2 ≥ 0.97). D-values of L. monocytogenes and L. innocua were 0.3 to 14.1 min at 66 to 58°C, with a z-value of 5.2 to 6.5°C and activation energy of 332 to 414 kJ/mol. The nonpathogenic Listeria innocua ATCC51742 had comparable D- and z-values to the three strains of L. monocytogenes and thus can be used for validation of pasteurization processes to control L. monocytogenes in cold-smoked salmon and potentially other ready-to-eat thermolabile food products.  相似文献

Ready‐to‐eat (RTE) foods have been identified as a high‐risk food group because of the number of outbreaks caused by food‐borne pathogens isolated from these products. As these items receive no further processing or heat treatment prior to consumption, bacterial pathogens such as Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Listeria monocytogenes present a serious threat to consumer safety. Of particular concern, L. monocytogenes is resistant to various food storage techniques, including reduced or modified atmosphere packaging, refrigerated storage, and increased salt concentration. Cold‐smoked fishery products have been implicated in a number of listeriosis cases, where it is estimated that between 6 and 36% of cold‐smoked fish is contaminated with L. monocytogenes. Edible coatings incorporated with natural antimicrobials have been suggested to control pathogenic and spoilage bacteria on a variety of meat products. In this study, edible zein‐based coatings incorporated with nisin and lemongrass essential oil (LG) (8%) were evaluated for antibacterial action against L. monocytogenes and spoilage organisms on cold‐smoked, cultured hybrid striped bass, Morone saxatilis × Morone chrysops, under polyvinyl chlorine (PVC) and vacuum packaging for 14 days (PVC) and 42 days (vacuum packaging), respectively, at 4°C. In this study, corn zein‐based edible coatings were found to be an effective carrier for nisin and LG. Nisin‐treated samples were most effective against L. monocytogenes in both PVC and vacuum‐packaged fillets, with a total reduction of 3.5 log and 3.7 log, respectively over the length of the storage time. LG‐treated samples reduced L. monocytogenes cell counts by 2.5 log in PVC and 1.7 log in vacuum‐packaged samples. Only LG‐treated samples packaged in PVC were found to inhibit the growth of spoilage organisms. Because nisin‐ and LG‐treated fillets reduced L. monocytogenes, they may be useful methods to improve food safety in smoked seafood.  相似文献

The protective activity of a non-bacteriocinogenic Lactococcus piscium CNCM I-4031 strain against Listeria monocytogenes was investigated in tropical cooked peeled shrimp stored at 8°C in modified atmosphere packaging (50% N2–50% CO2). When inoculated alone (L. piscium 107 CFU g?1 and L. monocytogenes 104 CFU g?1), protective culture and target strain grew very well on shrimp reaching a maximum cell number of 109 CFU g?1 after 7 and 14 days, respectively. In the presence of L. piscium, growth of L. monocytogenes was totally prevented after 3 days of storage. The count was 3.4 log CFU g?1 lower than in the control after 10 days and until the end of storage (31 days). Using the Seafood Spoilage and Safety Predictor Software (http://sssp.dtuaqua.dk), it was shown that pH decrease from 6.58 to 5.94 and lactic acid concentration of 89.65 mM measured in the co-inoculated batch did not fully explain the inhibition observed.  相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes presents a serious threat to consumer safety because it is resistant to various food storage techniques, including reduced or modified atmosphere packaging, refrigerated storage, and increased salt concentration. Edible coatings incorporated with natural antimicrobials have been suggested to control pathogenic and spoilage bacteria on a variety of meat products. In this study, edible zein‐based coatings incorporated with nisin and lemongrass essential oil (LGEO; 8%) were evaluated for antibacterial action against L. monocytogenes and spoilage organisms on fresh, cultured hybrid striped bass, Morone saxatilis × Morone chrysops, under two storage conditions (refrigerated or frozen) and two packaging types (polyvinyl chloride [PVC] and vacuum packing) over time. Corn‐zein‐based edible coatings were found to be an effective carrier for nisin and LGEO. Fillets coated with nisin showed the largest decrease in L. monocytogenes cell counts in both PVC and vacuum‐packaged samples in both refrigerated and frozen product, while fillets coated with LGEO showed intermediate inhibition of L. monocytogenes cell counts, with the strongest LGEO antibacterial effect being found in frozen product regardless of packaging. Both nisin and LGEO treatments were most effective in PVC‐packaged fillets compared to vacuum‐packaged fillets, but the difference in bacterial loads between packaging methods was minor. Bacterial loads on refrigerated product tended to increase slightly after 5‐d storage regardless of coating treatment or packaging, whereas bacterial loads on frozen product remained stable or decreased with time up to 60 d regardless of coating treatment or packaging. Data from the present study indicate that application of edible coatings incorporated with essential oils not only promotes food product safety but also may satisfy the preferences of consumers.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

This study assessed effects of high pressure processing on physicochemical quality and endogenous enzyme activities of grass carp fillets stored at 4 ºC for 21-day storage. Fresh fillets were vacuum-packed and subjected to high pressure processing (0.1, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 MPa at room temperature for 15 min). Results showed that high pressure processing significantly delayed microbial growth, and reduced total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) levels of grass carp fillets, especially for the 600 MPa group. On the 21st day, the corresponding increases of 6%, 35%, 45%, 43%, and 53% in hardness were observed for 200 MPa, 300 MPa, 400 MPa, 500 MPa, and 600 MPa samples compared with control samples, respectively. In addition, enzyme activities in different groups decreased during storage. Among them, calpain, and myofibril-bound serine proteinases (MBSP) activities were immediately reduced after high pressure treatments, while the activities of collagenase, cathepsin B, and cathepsin D were significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited when the pressure exceeded 400 MPa. However, the pressure treatments activated cathepsin L initially, and then the activity gradually decreased in treated samples. Generally, high pressure processing reduced activities of most of the endogenous enzymes and improved the quality and extended the shelf life by at least 4 ~ 6 days of refrigerated grass carp fillets.  相似文献

An antibacterial-substance-producing bacterium, namely, strain F412, was isolated from a traditional Myanmar shrimp product fermented with boiled rice. It was a gram-positive, spore-forming, and rod-shaped bacterium, and identified as Bacillus mojavensis on the basis of the gyrA sequence. The antibacterial substance of this strain was partially purified from a culture supernatant using two steps of column chromatography. This substance was found to be widely effective against gram-positive bacteria, including Listeria monocytogenes. The antibacterial activity of this substance was not susceptible to treatments with several proteolytic enzymes. The antibacterial activity gradually decreased with increasing treatment temperature, but it remained even after heating for 15 min at 121 °C. This antibacterial substance showed different molecular weights, as shown by the results of gel filtration and electrophoresis analyses. Staining results after electrophoresis suggest that the antibacterial substance might be a glycopeptide with an estimated molecular weight between 3.5 and 8.5 kDa. From the decrease in optical density of a culture of the L. monocytogenes treated with this antibacterial substance, it was suggested that this substance might have bacteriolytic activity.

High pressure processing (HPP) can shuck (open) shellfish, saving labor while conferring food safety and yield benefits. Mostly male New Zealand Greenshell? mussels (Perna canaliculus) were HPP-shucked (3 min at 500 MPa, 30°C) and assessed during 6-days’ ice storage (0°C) for cooked yield, color, and texture compared with heat processed (1 min at 70°C) and untreated samples. HPP-treated mussels had improved yields but lost more weight during ice storage. Male mussels from all treatments became darker with ice storage. HPP-treated mussels had firmer adductor muscles, while their guts required higher maximum force but less energy to puncture them.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Ozone is a USFDA and USDA approved food contact sanitizing agent and has been used in the seafood industry in both gaseous and dissolved forms to destroy bacteria. The wild harvest shrimp industry is the most economically important fishery in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico region, and in Louisiana the majority of the harvest is mechanically peeled and frozen. Dissolved ozone was measured in processing water at product application to study the optimization of ozonated water treatment for reducing microbial contamination of peeled shrimp meat. Shrimp samples were either sprayed or soaked in water with 1, 2, and 3 ppm dissolved ozone. Treatment times of 20, 40, and 60 seconds were investigated for all applications and concentrations. Similar volumes of water were applied for all treatments, and soaking showed greater bacterial reduction than spray treatments for all time and concentration combinations studied. Soaking in 3 ppm dissolved ozone for 40 s and 60 s showed the greatest reduction of total aerobic bacteria, and 60 s at 3 ppm resulted in the greatest reduction of Pseudomonas bacteria. Ozonated water treatment did not produce oxidation in the shrimp samples. The optimal treatment of soaking shrimp in 3 ppm dissolved ozone for 60 s will be used for further investigations of refrigerated shelf life extension and Listeria monocytogenes destruction in peeled shrimp meat.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Ovalipes trimaculatus is a crab recognized as a new resource with fishing value to obtain frozen products. Pasteurization conditions of meat crab at temperatures below 85ºC (60, 72, and 82ºC) were established to achieve better quality attributes in the frozen product. The lethality curves of Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes were measured, and the decimal reduction times (D) and Z values were determined. Heat transfer during the pasteurization process of pouches containing crab meat was simulated using a computational code in finite elements, and the mathematical model was experimentally validated. Thermal histories were coupled to the microbial lethality kinetics of the most heat resistant pathogen microorganism in order to establish pasteurization times necessary for the process system design. The predicted pasteurization conditions were microbiologically validated. The pouches were frozen under industrial conditions and stored at ?22ºC for 1 year. The influence of the type of packaging (vacuum and nonvacuum plastic pouches) on physicochemical and sensory quality parameters of frozen crab meat (color, exudate, lipid oxidation, water holding capacity, and overall acceptability) were analyzed observing better performance under vacuum conditions.  相似文献

To investigate the biopreservative effectiveness of pediocin ACCEL on refrigerated seafoods, fresh fish fillets were immersed in various concentrations of pediocin ACCEL and then stored at either 4° or 0°C. Samples treated with nisin were used as a positive control. The aerobic plate counts (APC) of samples with bacteriocins were <2.0 log10cfu/g (log cfu/g) after 2 days storage at 0°C, except that with 1500 IU/mL of pediocin ACCEL. The APC of samples with nisin were >2.0 log cfu/g after 2 days storage, while those with pediocin ACCEL occurred after 1 day storage at 4°C. In refrigerated seafoods, pediocin ACCEL and nisin suppressed the growth of inoculated Listeria monocytogenes during 2- and 1-week storage at 4°C, respectively. Compared with nisin, the pediocin ACCEL was considered to be more effective on the suppression of L. monocytogenes growth in refrigerated seafoods during 2-week storage at 4°C.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The effects of high pressure (100–500 MPa) treatment on myofibrillar protein (MP) contents and distribution of water in Solenocera melantho muscle were investigated. The results showed that the shrimp treated with 200 MPa had the highest shelling score, and the solubility of MP in meat of shrimp treated with 300 MPa was significantly reduced. Moreover, the surface hydrophobicity of MP increased with increasing pressure. Treatment of shrimp with 200–300 MPa high pressure partially converted the structure of MP from an α-helix structure to a β-sheet structure, allowing for greater exposure of the tryptophan residues present. Treatment of shrimp with 100–200 MPa led to a significant loss in the amount of immobilized water in shrimp muscle. However, the treatment did not significantly change the moisture distribution. Overall, pressures of 100 to 200 MPa are considered the most suitable for the processing of S. melantho.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate the inhibitory effect of alginate coating incorporated with Zataria multiflora Boiss essential oil (ZEO) and lactoperoxidase system (LPOS), individually and in combination, in order to control inoculated Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli O157:H7 in rainbow trout fillets during 16days of storage at 4°C. The antibacterial activity of ZEO was evaluated against Listeria monocytogenes and E. coli O157:H7 through determination of minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBC). In vivo study was performed by inoculating four strains of L. monocytogenes as culture cocktail and one strain of E. coli O157:H7 on trout fillets for their survival evaluation during the 16-day storage. Results indicated that ZEO and LPOS, when used in combination in alginate solution, had a stronger effect on the control of mentioned bacteria in trout fillets; however, their individual use could significantly inhibit their growth, when compared to the control. Moreover, it has been implicated that alginate coating, when used with no antimicrobial agent, had a supportive effect on the growth of these pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, the application of alginate coating containing ZEO and LPOS is recommended in foods, especially fish and fish products.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

High pressure (HP) treatment of 250 MPa pressure, 6-min holding time, and 400 MPa/min ramp rate at 25°C was applied to headless Indian white prawn (Fenneropenaeus indicus) to investigate the significant modifications on the functional properties of protein during chilled storage. Muscle fibers were shrunk and extracellular space apparently reduced after HP treatment. Myofibrillar proteins denatured and sarcoplasmic proteins aggregated and were found to be stable in HP-treated sample during chilled storage. Water-holding capacity, solubility, viscosity, and Ca2+ ATPase activity of protein were diminished, whereas foam expansion, foam volume stability, and turbidity of proteins improved with HP treatment and storage period (p < .05). Turbidity of the protein was inversely proportional to viscosity, solubility, and Ca2+ ATPase activity in HP-treated samples.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Grouper bone gelatin films were prepared along with chitosan (GC), clove (GL), and pepper (GP) essential oils and examined for their mechanical, barrier, and antimicrobial properties. GC films had a high tensile strength (TS) of 28 MPa, and GL and GP films had a high elongation at break (EAB) of 162 and 166%, respectively. Water solubility and water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) were low in GL films. All the films exhibited inhibitory activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Aeromonas hydrophila, and Listeria monocytogenes. Vacuum-packed fish steaks coated with GC and GL film extended the shelf life from 4 days to 8 days at 4ºC.  相似文献
