This study examines the potential of two buffer additives (Tween 20 and DTT) to improve the solubility of proteins from shrimp subjected to different heat treatments and the allergenicity of tropomyosin in the extracts. The concentration of soluble proteins extracted by all the buffers from processed shrimp was significantly reduced compared with untreated samples. The concentration of total soluble proteins from heat treated shrimp increased significantly when phosphate buffer containing both surfactant and reducing agent was used as the extraction buffer. However, the concentrations of heat-stable proteins in the buffers were mostly similar. The electrophoretic profile of extracted proteins showed that tropomyosin is very stable under the different heat treatment methods used in this study except for high pressure steaming where the intensity of tropomyosin band was reduced. Competitive inhibition ELISA showed that high pressure steaming reduced the allergenicity of tropomyosin compared with other heat treatments methods.
Thus, tropomyosin in shrimp exposed to low pH condition retained its allergenic capacity owing to the conservation of its linear epitopes. Analysis of the insoluble protein fraction was crucial for the accurate determination of the effect of low pH condition on the immunoreactivity of this allergen. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
Background To evaluate the impact of cold fermentation time on bagel rolls, the key aroma-active compounds in the volatile fractions obtained from three different bagel rolls through solvent assisted flavor evaporation (SAFE) were sequentially characterized by an aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), quantified by stable isotope dilution and analyzed by odor activity values (OAVs) respectively. Results Findings revealed 40 aroma-active compounds with flavor dilution (FD) factor ranges of 2–1024. Of these, 22 compounds (FD ≥ 16) were quantified by stable isotope dilution assays (SIDA). Subsequent analysis of the 22 compounds by odor activity values (OAVs) revealed 14 compounds with OAVs ≥ 1 and the highest concentrations were obtained for 2,3-butanedione, 2-phenylethanol, 3-methylbutanal and acetoin respectively. Two recombination models of the bagels (i.e. 24 h and 48 h bagels) showed similarity to the corresponding bagels. Omission tests confirmed that 2,3-butanedione (buttery), acetoin (buttery), 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (roasty), 5-methyl-2-furanmethanol (bread-like), (Z)-4-heptenal (biscuit-like) and 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone, were the key aroma compounds. Additionally, acetic acid, butanoic acid, 2-phenylethanol (honey-like), 3-methylbutanoic acid, 2/3-methylbutanal, vanillin, 3-methylbutanol, methional were also important odorants of the bagel. Conclusion Whilst the long, cold fermented bagels exhibited roasty, malty, buttery, baked potato-like, smoky and biscuit-like notes, the control bagels produced similar but less intense odor notes.
Dehydrated fruit pieces and purées are commonly used in many food formulations and toppings for food products like yogurts, ice creams, and cereals. However, one of the biggest problems in fruit dehydration is the prevention of the development of unpleasant off-flavour that can negatively impact on the sensory quality of the final dried fruit products. In recent years, fruit dehydration has been conducted using either thermal or non-thermal drying techniques. Therefore, the present review examines how the different dehydration technologies, namely conventional hot air-drying, ultrasonic-assisted hot air-drying, sun-drying, spray-drying, Refractance WindowTM drying, cast-tape drying, thin-layer catalytic far-infrared radiation drying, withering, freeze-drying, microwave-drying, and osmotic dehydration impact on the volatile constituents of the final dried fruit products. Drying processes result in noticeable losses/reduction of several impact odorants. Moreover, some compounds are produced either via: (1) hydrolysis of relevant glycosides under high temperatures, or (2) thermal degradation of volatile and non-volatile precursors as well as oxidation and Maillard reactions which result in the production of heterocyclics, and saturated and unsaturated aldehydes. Of significance is the Refractance WindowTM drying which exhibits high retention potential (~ 90%) of volatile compounds present in fresh fruits. Refractance WindowTM drying technology ensures rapid drying of food products at very low temperature.
