Commercial scale pulsed electric field processing of tomato juice   总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8  
Effects of commercial scale pulsed electric field (PEF) processing on the quality of tomato juice were studied and compared with those of thermal processing. Tomato juice was prepared by hot break at 88 degrees C for 2 min or by cold break at 68 degrees C for 2 min and then thermally processed at 92 degrees C for 90 s or PEF processed at 40 kV/cm for 57 micros. Thermally processed, PEF processed, and unprocessed control juices were packed into 50 mL sterilized polypropylene tubes in a sanitary glovebox and stored at 4 degrees C for 112 days. Both thermally and PEF processed juices showed microbial shelf life at 4 degrees C for 112 days. The lipoxygenase activities of thermally and PEF processed juices were 0 and 47%, respectively. PEF processed juice retained more ascorbic acid than thermally processed juice at 4 degrees C for 42 days (p < 0.05). No significant differences were observed in the concentration of lycopene, degrees Brix, pH, or viscosity between thermally and PEF processed juices during the storage (p > 0.05). Sensory evaluations indicated that flavor and overall acceptability of PEF processed juice were preferred to those of thermally processed juice (p < 0.05).  相似文献

Zearalenone is an endocrine disruptor with estrogenic activity, produced primarily by Fusarium graminearum, a common cause of corn ear rot and Fusarium head blight or scab in wheat. Zearalenone can be a contaminant of both corn and wheat and may survive thermal food processes. This study was done to determine the heat stability of zearalenone. Reduction of zearalenone was measured during heating at different temperatures (100, 125, 150, 175, 200, and 225 degrees C) in an aqueous buffer solution at different pH values. The rate and extent of zearalenone reduction increased with processing temperature. Less than 23% of zearalenone was lost when heated to /=175 degrees C, and complete reduction of zearalenone was observed in less than 30 min at 225 degrees C, regardless of pH. Overall, zearalenone was most stable at pH 7 followed by that at pH 4 and 10, and the greatest losses occurred above 175 degrees C.  相似文献

Thermal denaturation, rheological, and microstructural properties of gels prepared from native beta-lactoglobulin (beta-LG) and preheated or heat-denatured beta-LG (HDLG) aggregates were compared. The HDLG was prepared by heating solutions of 4% beta-LG in deionized water, pH 7.0, at 80 degrees C for 30 min and then diluted to the desired concentration in 0.6 M NaCl and 0.05 M phosphate buffer at pH 6.0, 6.5, and 7.0. When reheated to 71 degrees C, HDLG formed a gel at a concentration of 2% protein. At pH 7.0, 3% HDLG gelled at 52.5 degrees C and had a storage modulus (G') of 2200 Pa after cooling. beta-LG (3%) in 0.6 M NaCl and 0.05 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.0, did not gel when heated to 71 degrees C. The gel point of 3% HDLG decreased by 10.5 degrees C and the G' did not change when the pH was decreased to 6.0. The HDLG gel microstructure was composed of strands and clumps of small globular aggregates in contrast to beta-LG gels, which contained a particulate network of compacted globules. The HDLG formed a gel at a lower concentration and lower temperature than beta-LG in the high-salt buffer, suggesting an application in meat systems or other food products prepared with salt and processed at temperatures of < or =71 degrees C.  相似文献

An acidic peroxidase (pI approximately 2.5) was purified from turnip roots (TAP), and its thermal properties were evaluated. TAP is a monomeric protein having a molecular weight (MW) of 49 kDa and a carbohydrate content accounting for 18% of the MW. The yield of pure TAP was relatively high ( approximately 2 mg/kg of fresh roots), with a specific activity of 1810 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) units/mg at pH 6. The activity increased 4-fold at the optimum pH (4.0) to 7250 ABTS units/mg, higher than that of most peroxidases. TAP was heat stable; heat treatment of 25 min at 60 degrees C resulted in 90% initial activity retention, whereas an activity of 20% was retained after 25 min of heating at 80 degrees C. TAP regained 85% of its original activity within 90 min of incubation at 25 degrees C, following heat treatment at 70 degrees C for 25 min. Thermal inactivation caused noticeable changes in the heme environment as evaluated by circular dichroism and visible spectrophotometry. TAP was rapidly denatured by heating in the presence of 1.0 mM ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, but the Soret band and activity were fully recovered by adding an excess of Ca(2+). This is further evidence that Ca(2+) plays an important role in the stability of TAP. The high specific activity of TAP, together with its relatively high thermal stability, has high potential for applications in which a thermally stable enzyme is required.  相似文献

Reconstituted skim milk was adjusted to pH values between 6.5 and 7.1 and heated (90 degrees C) for up to 30 min. The skim milk samples were then readjusted to pH 6.7. Acid gels prepared from heated milk had markedly higher G ' values, a reduced gelation time, and an increased gelation pH than those prepared from unheated milk. An increased pH at heating decreased the gelation time, increased the gelation pH, and increased the final G ' of acid set gels prepared from the heated milk samples. There were only small differences in the level of whey protein denaturation in the samples at different pH values, and these differences could not account for the differences in the G ' of the acid gels. The levels of denatured whey protein associated with the casein micelles decreased and the levels of soluble denatured whey proteins increased as the pH at heating was increased. The results indicated that the soluble denatured whey proteins had a greater effect on the final G ' of the acid gels than the denatured whey proteins associated with the casein micelles.  相似文献

Casein fractions have been shown to act as molecular chaperones and inhibit aggregation of whey proteins in dilute solutions (< or =1% w/v). We evaluated if this approach would stabilize protein solutions at higher concentration and thermal processing temperatures desired for beverage applications. Mixtures of beta-lactoglobulin (BLG) (6% w/v) with either beta-casein (BCN) (0.01-2% w/v) or alpha s-casein (ACN) (2% w/v) were adjusted to pH 6.0 and heated (70-90 degrees C) for 20 min, cooled, and then analyzed to determine the degree of aggregation. Aggregation was determined by solution turbidity as optical density (OD) at 400 or 600 nm. The addition of 0.05% (w/v) BCN or greater caused a drop in turbidity for solutions heated at 70-90 degrees C. In contrast, inhibition was observed in BLG-ACN mixtures at 70 degrees C but not at > or =75 degrees C. Moreover, prolonged heating (90 min) of BLG with 2% (w/v) BCN (pH 6.0) at 90 degrees C produced a clear solution while BLG-ACN solutions formed translucent gels after heating for 15 min. The weight-averaged molar mass and root-mean-square (rms) radius of soluble aggregates were determined by size exclusion chromatography in conjunction with multiangle laser light scattering (SEC-MALS). SEC-MALS confirmed the turbidity results by showing that the BLG-BCN mixture (8% w/v protein) produced aggregates with lower molar mass and smaller rms radius (majority 20-40 nm). These results showed that BCN is a feasible component to stabilize higher concentrations of whey proteins in beverages.  相似文献

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) from eggplant was extracted and partially purified by a two-step fractionation-precipitation using ammonium sulfate and phenylsepharose hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The eggplant PPO extract was characterized concerning its kinetic properties. Optimal conditions to obtain Maillard reaction products (MRPs) with a maximal inhibitory potency (IP) toward PPO activity were determined using the surface response methodology and a four-factor and five-level experimental design. The MRPs were prepared from cysteine (0.25 M) and glucose (0-1 M), at several initial pH values (2-6) and at differing heating times (3-19 h) and temperatures (95-115 degrees C). The maximal IP was obtained after heating a model system of glucose/cysteine (1/0.25 M) at pH 2 for 3 h 20 min at 115 degrees C. The soluble part of this MRP, called MRP(IPmax), was a noncompetitive inhibitor toward eggplant PPO. The IP of MRP(IPmax) on PPO activity was very potent as compared to that displayed by benzoic, p-coumaric, and t-cinnamic acids, as well as sorbic acid and 4-hexylresorcinol. The activity of preincubated PPO at 0 degrees C with MRP(IPmax) was only slightly restored after dialysis or gel filtration.  相似文献

Steamed black soybeans and black soybean koji, a potentially functional food additive, were subjected to heating at 40-100 degrees C for 30 min. It was found that steamed black soybeans and black soybean koji after heating at 80 degrees C or higher generally showed reduced contents of malonylglucoside, acetylglucoside, and aglycone isoflavone and an increased content of beta-glucoside. A lower reduction in malonylglucoside and acetylglucoside isoflavone but greater reduction in aglycone content was noted in steamed black soybeans compared to black soybean koji after a similar heat treatment. After 30 min of heating at 100 degrees C, steamed black soybean retained ca. 90.3 and 83.8%, respectively, of its original malonylglucoside and acetylglucoside isoflavone, compared to lower residuals of 80.9 and 78.8%, respectively, for black soybean koji. In contrast, the heated black soybeans showed an aglycone residual of 68.0%, which is less than the 80.0% noted with the heated black soybean koji.  相似文献

A dehydration postharvesting treatment is necessary to convert Crocus sativus L. stigmas into saffron spice. Three different dehydration treatments were evaluated: dehydration at room temperature; dehydration with hot air at different temperatures (70, 90, and 110 degrees C); and dehydration following traditional processing in Castille-La Mancha (Spain) with three different heating sources (vineshoot charcoal, gas cooker, and electric coil). The time (between 28 and 55 min) and mean temperature (between 54 and 83 degrees C) conditions for traditional dehydration were established for the first time. The highest coloring strength was obtained when saffron was submitted to higher temperatures and lower times. These findings may be supported by the fact that samples dehydrated at high temperature were more porous than those dehydrated at room temperature, as was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The higher the temperature during the process, the higher the proportion of trans-crocetin di-(beta-D-gentibiosyl) ester, although trans-crocetin (beta-D-glucosyl)-(beta-D-gentibiosyl) and trans-crocetin di-(beta-D-glucosyl) ester decrease while cis-crocins did not change significantly. A thermal aging process reveals that the trans-crocetin di-(beta-D-gentibiosyl) ester increases when saffron is resubmitted to a heating treatment before it is decomposed by the extreme conditions. The picrocrocin extinction during the aging process does not imply a consistent generation of safranal.  相似文献

Molecular complexes based on proteins and ionic polysaccharides have considerable potential for encapsulation of functional food components, but their widespread utilization is limited because their structure is highly sensitive to pH and ionic strength. We have investigated the possibility of creating stable hydrogel particles by thermal treatment of protein (beta-lactoglobulin) and cationic polysaccharide (chitosan) mixtures. Mixed solutions of beta-lactoglobulin (0.5 wt %) and chitosan (0.1 wt %) were prepared at various pH's (3-8) and were heated (80 degrees C for 20 min). Prior to heating, the biopolymer mixtures formed molecular complexes at pH values where there was an electrostatic attraction between the protein and the polysaccharide: soluble complexes at pH 4.5; complex coacervates at pH 5.0 and 5.5; precipitates at pH>5.5. After heating, relatively small (d approximately 140 nm) and cationic (zeta>+20 mV) hydrogel particles were formed at pH 4.5, but much larger aggregates were formed at pH 5.0 and higher (d>1000 nm). The thermally treated hydrogel particles formed at pH 4.5 maintained their initial particle size when the pH was subsequently adjusted within the range pH 3-5, but they aggregated when the pH was adjusted to >pH 5 because of a reduction in the magnitude of their electrical charge. This study suggests that hydrogel particles can be formed by heating mixed protein-polysaccharide systems under controlled conditions. These hydrogel particles may be useful for encapsulation of functional food components.  相似文献

Cashew nut seeds were subjected to processing including autoclaving (121 degrees C for 5, 10, 20, and 30 min), blanching (100 degrees C for 1, 4, 7, and 10 min), microwave heating (1 and 2 min each at 500 and 1000 W), dry roasting (140 degrees C for 20 and 30 min; 170 degrees C for 15 and 20 min; and 200 degrees C for 10 and 15 min), gamma-irradiation (1, 5, 10, and 25 kGy), and pH (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13). Proteins from unprocessed and processed cashew nut seeds were probed for stability using anti-Ana o 2 rabbit polyclonal antibodies and mouse monoclonal antibodies directed against Ana o 1, Ana o 2, and Ana o 3 as detection agents. Results indicate that Ana o 1, Ana o 2, and Ana o 3 are stable regardless of the processing method to which the nut seeds are subjected.  相似文献

Soybeans contain oil bodies that are coated by a layer of oleosin proteins. In nature, this protein coating protects the oil bodies from environmental stresses and may be utilized by food manufacturers for the same purpose. In this study, oil bodies were extracted from soybean using an aqueous extraction method that involved blending, dispersion (pH 8.6), filtration, and centrifugation steps. The influence of NaCl (0-250 mM), thermal processing (30-90 degrees C, 20 min) and pH (2-8) on the properties and stability of the oil bodies was analyzed using zeta-potential, particle size, and creaming stability measurements. The extracted oil bodies were relatively small ( d 32 approximately 250 nm), and their zeta-potential went from around +12 mV to -20 mV as the pH was increased from 2 to 8, with an isoelectric point around pH 4. The oil bodies were stable to aggregation and creaming at low (pH = 2) and high (pH >/= 6) pH values but were unstable at intermediate values (3 相似文献

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) of garland chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) was purified approximately 32-fold with a recovery rate of 16% by ammonium sulfate fractionation, ion exchange chromatography, hydrophobic chromatography, and gel filtration. The purified enzyme appeared as a single band on PAGE and SDS-PAGE. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be about 47000 and 45000 by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE, respectively. The purified enzyme quickly oxidized chlorogenic acid and (-)-epicatechin. The K(m) value (Michaelis constant) of the enzyme was 2.0 mM for chlorogenic acid (pH 4.0, 30 degrees C) and 10.0 mM for (-)-epicatechin (pH 8.0, 40 degrees C). The optimum pH was 4.0 for chlorogenic acid oxidase (ChO) and 8.0 for (-)-epicatechin oxidase (EpO). In the pH range from 5 to 11, their activities were quite stable at 5 degrees C for 22 h. The optimum temperatures of ChO and EpO activities were 30 and 40 degrees C, respectively. Both activities were stable at up to 50 degrees C after heat treatment for 30 min. The purified enzyme was strongly inhibited by l-ascorbic acid and l-cysteine at 1 mM.  相似文献

The effect of meat cooking was measured on myofibrillar proteins from bovine M. Rectus abdominis. The heating treatment involved two temperatures (100 degrees C during 5, 15, 30, and 45 min and 270 degrees C during 1 min). Protein oxidation induced by cooking was evaluated by the level of carbonyl and free thiol groups. Structural modifications of proteins were assessed by the measurement of their surface hydrophobicity and by their aggregation state. With the aim of evaluating the impact of heat treatment on the digestive process, myofibrillar proteins were then exposed to proteases of the digestive tract (pepsin, trypsin, and alpha-chymotrypsin) in conditions of pH and temperature that simulate stomach and duodenal digestion. Meat cooking affected myofibrillar protein susceptibility to proteases, with increased or decreased rates, depending on the nature of the protease and the time/temperature parameters. Results showed a direct and quantitative relationship between protein carbonylation (p<0.01) and aggregation (p<0.05) induced by cooking and proteolytic susceptibility to pepsin. However, no such correlations have been observed with trypsin and alpha-chymotrypsin.  相似文献

The thermal behaviors of myosin from bovine vastus intermedius (VI, predominantly red muscle) and semimembranosus (SM, predominantly white muscle) at pH 6.05 (ultimate pH of VI muscle) and 5.50 (ultimate pH of SM muscle) were compared. Differential scanning microcalorimetry and turbidity measurements were used to monitor changes in myosin during heating from 25 to 80 degrees C at 1 degrees C/min. VI and SM myosin heavy chain isoforms were identified on gradient SDS-PAGE. Endotherms of VI myosin at pH 6.05 had three transition temperatures (T(m)) of 45, 53, and 57 degrees C, whereas at pH 5.50 two transitions were observed at 42 and 59 degrees C. SM myosin had two T(m) values of 46 and 58 degrees C at pH 6.05 and T(m) values of 43 and 62 degrees C at pH 5.5. SM myosin at its ultimate pH was less heat stable than VI myosin at its ultimate pH; however, when SM and VI myosin were compared at the same pH, VI myosin was less stable.  相似文献

A neutral peroxidase isozyme (pI 7.2) from turnip roots (TNP) was purified to homogeneity and partially characterized. TNP is a monomeric glycoprotein with 9.1% carbohydrate content and a molecular weight of 36 kDa. Optimum pH values for activity using 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) and guaiacol as H donors were 4.5 and 5.5, whereas the K(m) values were 0.7 and 3.7 mM, respectively. The ABTS K(m) was approximately 7 times higher than that reported for basic commercial horseradish peroxidase (HRP-C). TNP retained approximately 70% activity after 11 min of heating at 65 degrees C, whereas the activation energy for inactivation (132 kJ/mol) was higher than or comparable to that of other peroxidases. The low ABTS K(m) and high specific activity (1930 units/mg) gave a high catalytic efficiency (500 M(-1) s(-1)). These properties make TNP an enzyme with a high potential as an alternative to HRP in various applications.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of kilning and roasting temperatures on antioxidant activity of malt model systems prepared from combinations of glucose, proline, and ferulic acid. Model systems (initial a(w) = 0.09, 6% moisture) were heated at 60 degrees C for up to 24 h, at 90 degrees C for up to 120 min, and at 220 degrees C for up to 15 min. The antioxidant activity of the glucose-proline-ferulic acid model system increased significantly on heating at 60 degrees C for 24 h or at 90 degrees C for 120 min. In contrast, the glucose-proline, ferulic acid-glucose, and ferulic acid-proline systems presented either nonsignificantly increased or unchanged antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of both the glucose-proline-ferulic acid and glucose-proline model systems increased significantly after heating at 220 degrees C for 10 min, followed by a significant decrease at 15 min. The data suggest that (1) at 60 degrees C, ferulic acid reacts with Maillard reaction products, resulting in a significant increase in antioxidant activity; (2) at 90 degrees C, the antioxidant activity of the glucose-proline-ferulic system comes from both ferulic acid and Maillard reaction products; and (3) at 220 degrees C, the major contributors to antioxidant activity in glucose-proline-ferulic acid and glucose-proline systems are glucose-proline reaction products.  相似文献

The ability of alphas1/beta-casein and micellar casein to protect whey proteins from heat-induced aggregation/precipitation reactions and therefore control their functional behavior was examined. Complete suppression (>99%) of heat-induced aggregation of 0.5% (w/w) whey protein isolate (pH 6.0, 85 degrees C, 10 min) was achieved at a ratio of 1:0.1 (w/w) of whey protein isolate (WPI) to alphas1/beta-casein, giving an effective molar ratio of 1:0.15, at 50% whey protein denaturation. However, in the presence of 100 mM NaCl, heating of the WPI/alphas1/beta-casein dispersions to 85 degrees C for 10 min resulted in precipitation between pH 6 and 5.35. WPI heated with micellar casein in simulated milk ultrafiltrate was stable to precipitation at pH>5.4. Protein particle size and turbidity significantly (P相似文献

A cysteine protease, with a high cysteine content and a high degree of amino terminal sequence homology with ervatamins B and C, has been purified from the latex of Ervatamia heyneana (Family Apocynaceae). The enzyme designated as heynein (M(r) = 23 kDa) has a comparatively high cysteine content (11), high isoelectric point (10.8), and high stability against pH (2.5-11.5), temperature (63 degrees C, 15 min), strong denaturants, and organic solvents. The enzyme has high specific activities for natural substrates such as casein and azoalbumin. The pH and temperature optima are pH 8.0-8.5 and 52 +/- 2 degrees C, respectively. Hydrolysis of synthetic substrates and digestion of bovine serum albumin confirm a distinct specificity of heynein as compared to ervatamins and papain. Also, heynein has distinct immunogenicity as monitored by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Ouchterlony's double immunodiffusion. Strong enzyme activation by reducing agents such as beta-mercaptoethanol, dithiothreitol, and strong enzyme inhibition by thiol proteinase inhibitors such as E-64 and iodoacetic acid have evidenced heynein to be a cysteine protease. High stability, specific activity, and easy purification may make heynein a potential protease for food and biotechnology applications.  相似文献

The influence of type of fluorescent probe on the surface hydrophobicity values determined for three native and heated proteins was assessed using uncharged [6-propionyl-2-(N, N-dimethylamino)naphthalene or PRODAN] versus anionic aliphatic (cis-parinaric acid or CPA) and aromatic (1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid or ANS) probes. Surface hydrophobicities of whey protein isolate, beta-lactoglobulin, and bovine serum albumin under heated (80 degrees C for 30 min) and unheated conditions and at varying pH values (3.0, 5.0, 7.0, and 9. 0) were measured using ANS, CPA, and PRODAN. ANS and CPA yielded opposing results for the effects of pH and heating on protein hydrophobicity. Hydrophobicity was lower at pH 3.0 than at other pH values for all proteins measured by PRODAN, whereas the values measured by ANS and CPA at pH 3.0 were quite high compared to those at other pH values, suggesting the influence of electrostatic interactions on anionic probe-protein binding. These results suggest that the presence or absence of a permanent charge as well as the aromatic and aliphatic nature of fluorescent probes can affect protein hydrophobicity values measured under various pH conditions.  相似文献
