The effects of ozone water (OW) and ultrasound cleaning (UL) on microbial community diversity of crayfish were studied through microbial viable count and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The results showed that compared with the control (CK), the ozone water combined with ultrasound cleaning (OCU) showed a significant reduction (p < 0.05) in total viable count (TVC), psychrophilic viable count (PVC), mesophilic viable count (MVC), Pseudomonas, hydrogen sulfide-producing bacteria (HSPB), molds and yeasts. Concretely, the TVC of the CK, OW, UL and OCU were 5.09, 4.55, 4.32 and 4.06 log CFU/g, respectively. The dominant bacterium in untreated crayfish was Chryseobacterium, and its relative abundance was reduced by combined treatment. Color measurement and sensory evaluation suggested that a satisfactory sensory experience could be obtained on the crayfish applied with OCU. In brief, OCU could be used as a cleaning strategy to control the microbial quality of crayfish and have no influence on its quality.
This study described the quality and microbial influence on ozone water (OW) and ultra-high pressure (UHP) processing alone or in combination with refrigerated catfish fillets. The analysis parameters included total volatile base nitrogen (TVBN), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs), chromaticity, microbial enumeration, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, electronic nose (E-nose), and sensory score. The study found that compared with the control (CK), ozone water combined with ultra-high pressure (OCU) delayed the accumulation of TVBN and TBARs. The results of sensory evaluation illustrated that OCU obtained a satisfactory overall sensory acceptability. The counting results suggested that compared to CK, OCU significantly (p < 0.05) delayed the stack of TVC, Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and hydrogen sulfide-producing bacteria (HSPB) during the storage of catfish fillets. The sequencing results reflected that the dominant were Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria at the phylum level, and the dominant were Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Lelliottia, Serratia, Shewanella, Yersinia, and Aeromonas at the genus level. The dominant was Acinetobacter in initial storage, while Pseudomonas and Shewanella were in anaphase storage. Based on the TVC and TVBN, the shelf life of catfish fillets was extended by at least 3 days compared to the control. In short, the combination of ozone water and ultra-high-pressure processing is a favorable strategy to control microbial quality and delay lipid oxidation during catfish storage.
In order to estimate the effects of high hydrostatic pressure treatment at 400 MPa for 0 min and 10 min (HHP-0, HHP-10) and high hydrostatic pressure in combination with sous-vide treatment (HHP-0+SV, HHP-10+SV) on the quality of largemouth bass stored at 4 °C for 30 days, the physicochemical changes were evaluated by microbiological determinations, pH, sensory evaluation and texture analysis, and the flavour changes were analysed by solid-phase microextraction–gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) and amino acid automatic analyser. The results show that HHP-0+SV and HHP-10+SV treatment effectively inhibited microbiological growth and attenuated physiochemical changes (pH, sensory evaluation, flesh and texture) of largemouth bass fillets. HHP+SV treatment prolonged the storage period of largemouth bass fillets for 24 days. The content of total free amino acids in control (CK) samples was high, but HHP+SV treatment caused the loss of free amino acid content. Especially when stored for 30 days, the total free amino acid content of HHP-0+SV and HHP-10+SV was only 14.67 mg/100 g and 18.98 mg/100 g, respectively. In addition, a total of 43 volatile compounds were detected and elucidated, among which hexanal, heptaldehyde, octanal and nonanal showed a decreasing tendency in HHP groups and an increasing trend in HHP+SV groups throughout the storage.
