RESUMO

This study aims to evaluate the effect of different dietary fat sources on the quality of a Spanish-cooked meat product Lomo de Sajonia (LSA) and its shelf-life. Forty loins were selected from Iberian pigs fed four dietary treatments containing pork fat (G-1), Greedy-Grass Olive® (GGO) (enriched oleic-acid oil) (G-2), G-2 and high oleic sunflower (G-3), and G-3 plus a mixture of commercial organic acids (Bioll®) (G-4). Loins were manufactured to obtain LSA, and the quality and sensorial attributes were assessed. The shelf life was established according to microbial count and sensorial analysis, which was packed in a modified atmosphere and stored under retail conditions. All meat quality parameters of LSA remained stable in all groups, except fat content and overall liking, which showed the highest values for G-2 LSA. Regarding the shelf life, sensorial attributes remained acceptable in all groups during storage time, while a delay in microbial growth was recorded for the LSA of G-3. According to the results, including GGO in Iberian pig diets could enhance LSA traits, possibly linked to increased assimilation compared with conventional fat sources. However, adding organic acids to the diet did not have the expected effect on improving the shelf life of the LSA.

RESUMO

This study aimed to investigate the volatile flavor compounds and tastes of six kinds of sauced pork from the southwest and eastern coastal areas of China using gas chromatography-ion mobility spectroscopy (GC-IMS) combined with an electronic nose (E-nose) and electronic tongue (E-tongue). The results showed that the combined use of the E-nose and E-tongue could effectively identify different kinds of sauced pork. A total of 52 volatile flavor compounds were identified, with aldehydes being the main flavor compounds in sauced pork. The relative odor activity value (ROAV) showed that seven key volatile compounds, including 2-methylbutanal, 2-ethyl-3, 5-dimethylpyrazine, 3-octanone, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, dimethyl disulfide, 2,3-butanedione, and heptane, contributed the most to the flavor of sauced pork (ROAV ≥1). Multivariate data analysis showed that 13 volatile compounds with the variable importance in projection (VIP) values > 1 could be used as flavor markers to distinguish six kinds of sauced pork. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant link between the E-nose sensor and alcohols, aldehydes, terpenes, esters, and hetero-cycle compounds. The results of the current study provide insights into the volatile flavor compounds and tastes of sauced pork. Additionally, intelligent sensory technologies can be a promising tool for discriminating different types of sauced pork.

RESUMO

Sichuan bacon represents the most prevalent dry-cured meat product across Southwest China, but it is vulnerable to fungal spoilage. In the present study, a total of 47 Sichuan bacons were obtained from different regions of the Sichuan Province and analyzed for the presence of ochratoxin A (OTA), yielding a positive rate of 23.4 % (11/47). All the observed OTA concentrations exceeded the maximum admissible dose in meat products (1 µg/kg) established by some EU countries, with the highest OTA concentration being 250.75 µg/kg, which raises a food safety concern and reveals the need for a standardized scientific processing protocol. Then, an OTA-producing fungus named 21G2-1A was isolated from positive samples and found to be Aspergillus westerdijkiae. Further characterization suggested a positive correlation between fungal growth and OTA production. The optimal temperature for the former was 25 °C, while it was 20 °C for the latter. Although the A. westerdijkiae strain 21G2-1A demonstrated greater mycelium growth in the presence of NaCl, OTA production was significantly dismissed when the salinity was greater than 5 %. Four lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were screened out as antagonists against the ochratoxigenic fungus. In vitro evaluation of the antagonists revealed that live cells inhibited fungal growth, and adsorption also contributed to OTA removal at different levels. This study sheds some light on OTA control in Sichuan bacon through a biological approach.

RESUMO

Trimethoprim (TMP), functioning as a synergistic antibacterial agent, is utilized in diagnosing and treating diseases affecting livestock and poultry. Human consumption of the medication indirectly may lead to its drug accumulation in the body and increase drug resistance due to its prolonged metabolic duration in livestock and poultry, presenting significant health hazards. Most reported immunoassay techniques, such as ELISA and immunochromatographic assay (ICA), find it challenging to achieve the dual advantages of high sensitivity, simplicity of operation, and a wide detection range. Consequently, an open droplet microchannel-based magnetosensor for immunofluorometric assay (OMM-IFA) of trimethoprim was created, featuring a gel imager to provide a signal output derived from the highly specific antibody (Ab) targeting trimethoprim. The method exhibited high sensitivity in chicken and pork samples, with LODs of 0.300 and 0.017 ng/mL, respectively, and a wide linear range, covering trimethoprim's total maximum residue limits (MRLs). Additionally, the spiked recoveries in chicken and pork specimens varied between 81.6% and 107.9%, maintaining an acceptable variation coefficient below 15%, aligning well with the findings from the ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) technique. The developed method achieved a much wider linear range of about 5 orders of magnitude of 10-2-103 levels with grayscale signals as the output signal, which exhibited high sensitivity, excellent applicability and simple operability based on magnetic automation.

RESUMO

This study was investigated the effect of adding fat to pork sausage on taste and aroma persistence. Sensory evaluation indicated that increasing fat content intensified umami and saltiness perception, enhancing the mouthfulness and flavor persistence, leading to Koku enhancing effect. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis identified aroma compounds such as ß-pinene, 3-carene, D-limonene, octanal, nonanal, caryophyllene, and methyl eugenol, which were consistently present regardless of fat content. These aroma compounds were less likely to be released as the fat content increased. Furthermore, the release of these aroma compounds from the sausage with addition of fat was larger than that without addition of fat in the presence of saline, indicating that the added fat retained these aroma compounds and released them in the presence of saline. This suggests that sausages with added fat release more aroma compounds during consumption, resulting in a more intense flavor and flavor persistence of Koku perception. These seven compounds detected in pork sausage were found to be easily retained by cholesterol and lecithin, likely due to differences in their log P values (octanol/water partition coefficients), which were greater than 3.

RESUMO

To better understanding the effects of ultrasonic marination on the porcine tissue, the moisture migration and microstructure were investigated in this study. Additionally, the acoustic field distribution was analysis using COMSOL Multiphysics. The low-filed NMR results demonstrated that ultrasonic curing induced a leftward shift in T21 and a rightward shift in T22, accompanied by a significant reduction in A22, thereby enhancing the water-holding capacity of pork. The SEM and TEM observation showed that the presence of larger interstitial gaps between muscle fibers facilitated the diffusion of NaCl. The simulation analysis revealed that the acoustic field at 26.8 kHz showed minimal standing wave effects and more pronounced cavitation, which was the main reason for the best curing effect at this frequency. The scale-up test showed the NaCl content in pork reached 1% after ultrasound curing, indicating the potential application of ultrasonic marination technology in domestic refrigerators.

RESUMO

The deliberate pork adulteration with lymph nodes is a common adulteration phenomenon, and it poses a serious threat to public health and food safety. An untargeted metabolomics and lipidomics approach based on ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion trap quadrupole-Orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (MS) was used to distinguish lymph nodes from minced pork. The principal component analysis and orthogonal projection to latent structures discriminant analysis models were established with the good of fitness and predictivity. The results showed that there were significant differences in metabolites and lipids between lymph nodes and pork. A total of 16 significantly differentiated metabolites were identified, of which 1-palmitoylglycerophosphocholine, 12,13-dihydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) were positively correlated with lymph node content and were identified as potential markers of lymph nodes. These three markers were combined to create a binary logistic regression model, and a combined-factor exceeding 0.75 was ultimately identified as a marker for pork adulteration with lymph nodes. The desorption electrospray ionization-MS images showed that PGE2 had a higher relative abundance in the lymph node region than in adjacent non-lymph node regions, indicating that PGE2 was a marker that contributed significantly for identifying lymph nodes adulteration into pork. Our results provide a theoretical basis for identifying lymph node adulteration, which will contribute to combating fraud in the meat industry.

RESUMO

Zhenba bacon is a traditional cured bacon product with a rich history that originated from Zhenba County, Shaanxi Province. This study aimed to investigate the patterns of volatile compound formation and changes in metabolites during the smoking process in Zhenba bacon. Firstly, the sensory properties and physicochemical properties of Zhenba bacon were analyzed. Gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) and nontargeted metabolomics technology were used to analyze Zhenba bacon from different smoking stages. The results show a gradual increase in the sensory acceptance and volatile flavor compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, and esters with the prolongation of smoking of Zhenba bacon. LC-MS analysis identified 191 co-expressed differentially metabolites, with amino acid and lipid metabolism being the main metabolic pathways according to KEGG enrichment analysis. Temporal expression analysis of bacon metabolites at each stage revealed a decrease in harmful steroid hormones such as cortisone and an increase in amino acids and lipid metabolites, such as arginine, lysine, acid, and cholesterol, that contribute to the flavor of bacon. In summary, duration of smoking increased, the amount of flavor substances in Zhenba bacon gradually increased, and the safety and quality of bacon reached the optimal level after 32 days of smoking. This study provides valuable insights into the dynamic changes in volatile flavor compounds in Zhenba bacon and establishes a theoretical foundation for quality control during its production.

RESUMO

To study the impact of ultrasonic duration (0, 30, and 60 min) and sodium bicarbonate concentration (0% and 0.2%) on the gel properties of reduced-salt pork myofibrillar protein, the changes in cooking yield, colour, water retention, texture properties, and dynamic rheology were investigated. The findings revealed that added sodium bicarbonate significantly increased (P < 0.05) cooking yield, hardness, springiness, and strength of myofibrillar protein while reducing centrifugal loss. Furthermore, the incorporation of sodium bicarbonate led to a significant decrease in L⁎, a⁎, b⁎, and white values of cooked myofibrillar protein; these effects were further amplified with increasing ultrasonic duration (P < 0.05). Additionally, storage modulus (G') significantly increased for myofibrillar protein treated with ultrasonic-assisted sodium bicarbonate treatment resulting in a more compact gel structure post-cooking. In summary, the results demonstrated that ultrasonic-assisted sodium bicarbonate treatment could enhance the tightness of reduced-salt myofibrillar protein gel structure while improving the water retention and texture properties.

RESUMO

As a natural pH-sensing colorant, purple sweet potato anthocyanins (PSPAs) have demonstrated great potential in colorimetric film for freshness monitoring. However, the photothermal instability of PSPAs is still a challengeable issue. Herein, γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic framework (CD-MOF) loaded with PSPAs (PSPAs@CD-MOF, i.e., PM) and eugenol (EUG) were incorporated in cellulose acetate (CA) matrix for developing a smart active colorimetric film of CA/PM/EUG, where PM and EUG were hydrogen-bonded with CA. Attentions were focused on the photothermal colorimetric stability, colorimetric response, and antibacterial activity of the films. The presence of PM and EUG endowed the film outstanding UV-blocking performance and enhanced the barrier against water vapor and oxygen. Target film of CA/PM15/EUG10 had good photothermal colorimetric stability due to the protection of CD-MOF on PSPAs and the color changes with pH-stimuli were sensitive and reversible. In addition to antioxidant activity, CA/PM15/EUG10 had antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The application trial results indicated that the CA/PM15/EUG10 was valid to indicate pork freshness and extended the shelf-life by 100 % at 25 °C, which has demonstrated a good perspective on smart active packaging for freshness monitoring and shelf-life extension.

RESUMO

Pork is widely consumed worldwide, and many consumers now utilize sensory evaluation techniques to determine the freshness of pork when buying it. A color-changing ink label utilizing bromocresol purple (BCP) and N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) had been created to help consumers better and more rapidly determine the freshness of pork while it is stored. The ink was easy to prepare and could be readily transferred to A4 paper using screen printing technology. This study delved deeper into the impact of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) on the functional properties of inks to enhance printing performance. The experiment demonstrated that a 1 % mass fraction of HEC improved thixotropy and facilitated the even distribution of ink on A4 paper, as confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Screen-printed labels with varying concentrations displayed distinct color change rates when stored at different temperatures, indicating their capability to assess pork freshness. FT-IR, laboratory, and stability tests verified the ink's exceptional color change capabilities and printing attributes. An analysis using the Arrhenius equation revealed a substantial synergistic effect between BCP and NHPI, resulting in improved sensitivity and accuracy of the ink. This study offers a practical and feasible method to monitor the storage quality of pork effectively.

RESUMO

In this study, an active and intelligent nanofilm for monitoring and maintaining the freshness of pork was developed using ethyl cellulose/gelatin matrix through electrospinning, with the addition of natural purple sweet potato anthocyanin. The nanofilm exhibited discernible color variations in response to pH changes, and it demonstrated a higher sensitivity towards volatile ammonia compared with casting film. Notably, the experimental findings regarding the wettability and pH response performance indicated that the water contact angle between 70° and 85° was more favorable for the smart response of pH sensitivity. Furthermore, the film exhibited desirable antioxidant activities, water vapor barrier properties and also good antimicrobial activities with the incorporation of ε-polylysine, suggesting the potential as a food packaging film. Furthermore, the application preservation outcomes revealed that the pork packed with the nanofilm can prolong shelf life to 6 days, more importantly, a distinct color change aligned closely with the points indicating the deterioration of the pork was observed, changing from light pink (indicating freshness) to light brown (indicating secondary freshness) and then to brownish green (indicating spoilage). Hence, the application of this multifunctional film in intelligent packaging holds great potential for both real-time indication and efficient preservation of the freshness of animal-derived food items.

RESUMO

Dry-cured ham is important source of bioactive peptides. In this study, the antioxidant activities of peptides and components from low and fully salted dry-cured hams were compared by peptidomics. And novel antioxidant peptides were identified and characterized. The results showed that the peptides (<3 KDa) extracted from low-salt dry-cured ham had higher antioxidant activity. Therefore, the antioxidant peptides in low-salt dry-cured ham were further characterized and the mechanism of their antioxidant activity was investigated. From the five candidate peptides selected, we found DWPDARGIWHND (DD12) to be highly stable, non-sensitizing, and non-toxic with the highest free radical scavenging activity. Molecular docking predicted that DD12 interacted with Keap1 through hydrogen-bond formation and hydrophobic interactions, suggesting that DD12 had good cellular antioxidant activity. DD12 peptide can bind to DPPH• and ABTS•+, resulting in strong free radical scavenging activity. Our findings support the development and application of natural antioxidant peptides in dry-cured ham.

RESUMO

Duroc × (Landrace × Yorkshire) pigs are popular in the Chinese market because of their rapid growth, leanness, and economic value. Despite their widespread use in dry-cured ham processing, there is a lack of research on the bioactive peptides of Duroc × (Landrace × Yorkshire) pig ham (DLYH). This study aimed to investigate the presence of peptides with antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities in DLYH using peptidomics and in silico analysis. A total of 453 peptides were identified from DLYH, originating mainly from myosin, actin, and the EF-hand domain-containing protein. Notably, two peptides, YDEAGPSIVH (YH10) and FAGDDAPRAVF (FF11), emerged as novel bioactive peptides with antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. Among these peptides, YH10 exhibited a high DPPH radical scavenging activity (IC50 = 1.93 mM), ABTS radical scavenging activity (IC50 = 0.10 mM), α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (IC50 = 2.13 mM), and good gastrointestinal tolerance. Molecular docking analysis showed that YH10 was bound to the ABTS and DPPH radicals and the active site of α-glucosidase (3A4A) primarily through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Furthermore, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation indicated that the YH10-3A4A complexes maintained stable and compact conformations. In conclusion, our findings indicated that peptide YH10 derived from DLYH possesses bifunctional properties of α-glucosidase inhibition and antioxidant activity, which could be beneficial for maintaining ham quality and promoting human health.

RESUMO

Zilpaterol hydrochloride (zilpaterol) is used in animal feed as it can increase the lean meat mass. However, consuming zilpaterol-containing animal products may damage human health. Therefore, rapid detection of zilpaterol is attracting increasing research attention. This study aimed to developed a fast, accurate, and ultrasensitive fluorescence immunoassay based on CdTe quantum dots (QDs). A CdTe QD fluorescence sensor was synthesized from thioglycolic acid using a simple hydrothermal method. The morphology and structure of the CdTe QDs were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The detection limits of our method in swine urine and pork samples were 0.5 µg/L and 1.2 µg/kg, respectively. A wide linear range of 0.1-10000 µg/L (R2 = 0.996) was achieved. Both within-run precision (CVw) and between-run precision (CVb) were ≤ 10 %. The method was then successfully applied for the analysis of zilpaterol contents in swine urine and pork samples.

RESUMO

The impacts of Staphylococcus cohnii, S. saprophyticus and their synergistic Lactobacillus plantarum on the quality and flavor of Chinese bacon were investigated by monitoring the physicochemical characteristics and characterizing metabolites with non-targeted metabolomics. Results showed that S. cohnii could increase the tenderness and decrease the oxidation of muscle, while S. saprophyticus stabilized the springiness and increased the proteolysis. The metabolites produced by the co-fermentation of S. cohnii and S. saprophyticus showed a higher hierarchy, then exhibited the highest hierarchy in synergy with L. plantarum. The promising flavor may be related to the arginine biosynthesis, nicotinic acid and nicotinamide metabolism, and pyrimidine metabolism pathways. Staphylococcus contributed to flavor by promoting the accumulation of di- and tripeptides and activating the amino acid metabolic pathway through arginine metabolism. These findings provide thoughts for understanding the fermentation mechanism of Staphylococcus and the targeted modulation of the flavor of Chinese bacon.

RESUMO

Sensory evaluation by consumers allows validation of a solution for the food industry to overcome boar taint and market entire male pork with high levels of boar taint considered "unfit for human consumption". One possible technological strategy for improvement is the injection marination of entire male pork to help minimise the impact of boar taint and improve its marketability. The responses of 120 regular pork consumers, to entire males with high levels of boar taint and castrated pork, both injection-marinated, were evaluated. The results showed a similar response between entire and castrated male pork regardless of sex, and the detection of unpleasant odours and flavours (as farm/animal), thus offering a new alternative to the pork sector to mask the boar taint and revalue this pork. However, it was observed that consumer information on castration and animal welfare of entire male pork is scarce, and it is important to increase their knowledge so that they can place a value on this technological strategy with entire male pork and thus increase their purchase intention.

RESUMO

Magnetic field combined with calcium chloride (CaCl2,) treatment is a highly promising technique for reducing sodium chloride (NaCl) in meat. Therefore, this paper investigated the effect of reducing NaCl addition (0-10%) by CaCl2 in combination with a magnetic field (3.8 mT) on the edible quality of low-salt pork mince. It is desired to drive the application of magnetic field and CaCl2 in low-sodium meat processing in this way. Results showed that the cooking yield, color, hardness, elasticity, mouthfeel, apparent texture, and orderliness of protein conformation of all minced pork were improved as compared to the control group, while the electron nose response values of their volatile sulfides and nitrogen oxides were decreased. In particular, the best edible quality and perceived salty intensity of minced pork gel was obtained by using CaCl2 in place of 5% NaCl under magnetic field mediation. In addition, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy scans showed that the reduced NaCl treatment by magnetic field combined with CaCl2 could increase the signal intensity of sodium in minced pork matrices to some extent. Magnetic field-mediated substitution of NaCl for CaCl2 treatment was also found to be favorable for inducing the transition of the protein secondary structure from an irregularly coiled to a ß-folded structure (demonstrated by infrared spectroscopy). In short, magnetic fields combined with CaCl2 instead of NaCl was a highly promising method of producing low-NaCl meats.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to assess whether ultrasound treatment (sonification time: 5, 15, and 30 min; constants: ∼40 kHz, ∼2.5 W cm2) can be applied prior to hydrolysis to enhance the anti-radical and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibiting (anti-ACE) effect of the hydrolysates from fermented pork loins. Enzymatic hydrolysis was performed using pepsin, followed by pancreatin. The influence of meat matrix on the course of hydrolysis, shaped using a lactic acid bacteria (LAB)-based starter culture, was also analyzed. It was found that proteases caused a systematic increase in the content of peptides, while pancreatin limited the peptide content in the protein hydrolysate from the loins subjected to spontaneous fermentation. Moreover, for these tests, sonication time had a negligible effect on the peptides content of the hydrolysates. On the other hand, for the sample of LAB-fermented products, both sonication time and stage of hydrolysis promoted the biological activity of the hydrolysates. Samples from the LAB-fermented meat had more peptides at the stage of digestion with pepsin and pancreatin, exhibiting much faster antiradical and anti-ACE activity compared to the control sample. The obtained results suggest that the use of LAB promotes the release of antiradical peptides during the two-step enzymatic hydrolysis, the duration of which can be shortened to achieve satisfactory biofunctionalities. Additional application of sonication pretreatment allows controlling the course of the hydrolysis, as the pro-health, biological effect of some protein-derived sequences is associated with the content of peptides.

RESUMO

Chlorine and its derivatives, such as sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and chlorine dioxide, are frequently employed as disinfectants throughout the pork supply chain in China. Nevertheless, the extensive use of NaClO has the potential to cause the creation of 'chlorine-tolerant bacteria' and accelerate the evolution of antibiotic resistance. This study evaluated the efficacy of NaClO disinfection by examining alterations in the microbiome and resistome of a pork wholesale market (PWM), and bacteria isolation and analysis were performed to validate the findings. As expected, the taxonomic compositions of bacteria was significantly different before and after disinfection. Notably, Salmonella enterica (S. enterica), Salmonella bongori (S. bongori), Escherichia coli (E. coli), Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) were observed on all surfaces, indicating that the application of NaClO disinfection treatment in PWM environments for pathogenic bacteria is limited. Correlations were identified between antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) associated with aminoglycosides (aph(3'')-I, aph(6')-I), quinolone (qnrB, abaQ), polymyxin (arnA, mcr-4) and disinfectant resistance genes (emrA/BD, mdtA/B/C/E/F). Furthermore, correlations were found between risk Rank I ARGs associated with aminoglycoside (aph(3')-I), tetracycline (tetH), beta_lactam (TEM-171), and disinfectant resistance genes (mdtB/C/E/F, emrA, acrB, qacG). Importantly, we found that Acinetobacter and Salmonella were the main hosts of disinfectant resistance genes. The resistance mechanisms of the ARGs identified in PWM were dominated by antibiotic deactivation (38.7%), antibiotic efflux (27.2%), and antibiotic target protection (14.4%). The proportion of genes encoding efflux pumps in the PWM resistome increased after disinfection. Microbial cultures demonstrated that the traits of microbial contamination and antibiotic resistane were consistent with those observed by metagenomic sequencing. This study highlights the possibility of cross-resistance between NaClO disinfectants and antibiotics, which should not be ignored.
