      Abstract (824) HTML (0) PDF 0.00 Byte (0) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Flavonoids are abundant in citrus and widely used in food, medicine, cosmetics, and other industries due to its various physiological activities. Flavonoids are mostly extracted from citrus and other plants, and a small amount is synthesized chemically or modified structurally. In recent years, the microbial method of constructing metabolism pathways in a host, such as Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has entered the research stage, which has sustainable application prospects due to its high safety, environmental protection. Collectively, this study briefly describes the synthesis of flavonoids in citrus and focuses on the research progress on the microbial synthesis of naringin, hesperidin, eriocitrin, etc. We also propose several problems with the heavy metabolic burden of the host, the low efficiency of gene expression, unreasonable distribution of carbon flux, and put forward solving methods including optimization of the host selection, microbial coculture, the expression system, and carbon flux. We hope to provide references for the current research on the microbial synthesis of flavonoids in citrus.

      Abstract:In this study, we investigated the abundance and diversity of lactic acid bacteria(LAB) and Bifidobacterium in 27 healthy young people from Hainan province using laboratory-designed LAB primers and Bifidobacterium-specific primers; this work also aimed to discuss the influence of sex, age, and body mass index (BMI) on the quantities of these two bacterial groups. The fecal LAB in the volunteers were mainly composed of Streptococcus, Lactobacillus, Weissella and Ruminococcus. According to the composition of LAB at species level, all volunteers could be divided into two enterotyping. The proportion of Streptococcus salivarius in the two enterotyping had significant difference(P<0.05). The abundance and diversity of LAB in the gut of male volunteers were significantly higher than that in women. In addition, volunteers’ could be divided into three different groups according to the diversity characteristics of bifidobacteria. The representative bifidobacterial strains are B. catenulatum, B. longum and B. stercoris, respectively. Both gender and BMI are factors influencing the composition of bifidobacterial. This study has established accurate methods in determining LAB and bifidobacteria in human intestinal samples, as well as preliminary described the LAB and bifidobacteria subpopulations in subjects of Hainan province. Results obtained in this paper serve as good reference for other studies.

      2019, 19(11):31-37.

      Abstract (442) HTML (0) PDF 0.00 Byte (0) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:Influence of different amylose/amylopectin ratio of starch on the gel property of high methoxyl pectin were studied by using an oscillatory rheometer and Texture Profile Analysis. Dynamic rheological studies suggested that as the proportion of amylose increased, the G′ and G″ values of the mixed gel increased, the tan δ decreased, and gave rise to better viscoelasticity. In static rheological studies, pectin gel remained pseudo-plastic fluids despite the presence of starch, and in the presence of higher proportion of amylose, the mixed gel showed higher consistency coefficient K and lag ring area, and lower fluid index n. The textural properties of the mixed gel were influenced by the proportion of amylose. Hardness, adhesiveness and cohesiveness of the gel significantly increased with the increase of the proportion of amylose. It is concluded that the amylose proportion of the starch in the pectin gel was a great determinant of gel property. Hydrogen bonding between pectin and starch might was a major physical force affecting gel texture as testified by adding urea.

      Abstract (370) HTML (0) PDF 0.00 Byte (0) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:In order to effectively remove the tannin and pigment present in Rosa roxburghii Tratt juice and improve its quality, three kinds of adsorbent including β-CS-CD, β-CD and CS were studied. Results showed that β-CS-CD exhibited the best absorption performance and the removal rate of pigment and tannin. Moreover, the absorption isotherm of β-CS-CD, β-CD and CS were fitted to the Langmuir and Freundlich equations. The linear correlation coefficients R2 were greater than 0.98. The pigment and tannin fitting parameter of Langmuir of β-CS-CD were qm=32.61 mg/g, 103×KL=52.85 L/mg, qm=22.37 mg/g, 103×KL=29.90 L/mg, respectively. The pigment and tannin fitting parameter of Freundlich of β-CS-CD were n=2.00, KF=3.611, n=1.18, KF=1.53, respectively. The results indicated that the introduction of β-CD functional group could greatly increase the adsorption efficiency. Kinetic studies showed that the adsorption was fast and the adsorption process followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model. We also find that for β-CS-CD the adsorption kinetic rate constant (k2) value was much larger on β-CD and CS. These results clearly indicate that the introduction of CD increases not only the adsorption capacity and intensity but also the adsorption rate of chlorophenol. Therefore, β-CS-CD was effective to remove tannin and pigment from Rosa roxburghii Tratt juice and therefore could improve its quality.

      Abstract:The effects of high pressure homogenization (HPH) combined VC on the natural microorganisms, pH value, soluble solids content, color, total phenol and flavonoids in cloudy peach juice were studied. The aim of this study was to provide a theoretical basis for commercial application of HPH. The changes of the microorganisms and quality in cloudy peach juice with/without 0.15% Vc were evaluated after HPH at a pressure range of 0-190 MPa, a temperature range of 30 ℃, 45 ℃ and 60 ℃. The results showed that the total plate count, molds and yeasts reduced with the increment of the pressure of HPH in the peach juice. The increment of inlet temperature could significantly reduce microorganisms. No molds and yeasts were detected in the treated cloudy peach juice when the pressure of HPH was above 110 MPa with inlet temperature of 60 ℃. After addition of 0.15% VC to the cloudy peach juice, the pH value and soluble solid content were also not significantly changed by HPH. The color of cloudy peach juice was significantly improved by HPH with VC. HPH increased the L* and b* value of cloudy peach juice and decreased a* value. As compared with the sample without VC, the value of ΔE was significantly decreased after HPH, indicating HPH could better preserved the color of cloudy peach juice with VC. The total phenol and flavonoids were significantly increased in cloudy peach juice with addition of VC, which was 2-3 times than control sample. According to the study, it could be concluded that the treatment of HPH combined with VC could significantly reduce the microorganisms in peach juice, inhibit the browning and improve total phenol and flavonoids in cloudy peach juice.

      Abstract:Changes on the content of abscisic acid (ABA), gibberellins(GA), indole-3-acetic acid(IAA) and zeatin nucleoside (ZR) in different tissues of Agaricus bisporus (Lange Sing) mushroom during 20 ℃ storage were investigated in this study. Results showed that the change pattern of GA and IAA content is similar during postharvest A. bisporus mushroom storage. GA and IAA may synergistically control the processes of cap expansion, protecting veil break and the spore production. Both of ABA and GA play prominent roles in the postharvest senescence process of stipe tissue. ABA may promote and participate in the whole senescence process of harvested A. bisporus fruit bodies. Compared with ABA, GA and IAA, ZR is distributed obviously in different tissues and may closely relate to the gill thickening and spore production. The above mentioned results indicated that the production of the four hormones were difference in different tissues of the A. bisporus mushroom during postharvest storage, which is probably associated with the postharvest continued development and senescence processes. The discovery in this study will provide a theory base for seeking new methods to effectively maintain postharvest quality of A. bisporus mushroom.

      Abstract:Apple fruits of 18 cultivars from 7 different main growing areas in China were collected for cloudy juice processing and the amino acid components and contents of fresh cloudy apple juices were measured. By descriptive and stepwise linear discriminant analysis (SLDA), the results showed that the amino acid contents of cloudy apple juices differed from varieties and origins. In general, the variation coefficients of alanine, leucine, serine, valine and isoleucine were relatively high, which were 191.38%, 96.91%, 67.82%, 53.60% and 57.97% respectively. The variation coefficient of aspartic acid, threonine, glutamic acid, glycine, lysine, and total amino acid were relatively low, which were 43.92%, 45.70%, 28.37%, 35.16%, 47.47% and 39.40% respectively. Moreover, cloudy apple juice form Huajin contained the highest amount of aspartic acid, serine, alanine and total amino acids, which were 235.6 mg/100 g, 12.6 mg/100 g, 10.5 mg/100 g and 289.4 mg/100 g, respectively. Thus, with its highest contents in the above four amino acids, cloudy apple juice of Huajin located at the edge of the figure, showing the great difference with other varieties. Besides, the amino acid components and contents of apple juices were greatly affected by origins, and the samples from different areas were dispersed in the figure. Compared to other origins, cloudy apple juices from Xinjiang showed significant lower contents in threonine, serine, glutamic acid and valine, which were 1 mg/100 g, 2.4 mg/100 g, 7.1 mg/100 g, 1 mg/100 g respectively. Cloudy apple juices with different varieties from Shandong Province and cloudy apple juice of Fuji from different origins showed significantly different in amino acid constitution, which obtained 77.8% and 81.8% discriminant accuracy respectively based on SLDA. The above results show that cloudy apple juices could be differentiated for varieties and origins based on amino acid contents by SLDA.

      Abstract (750) HTML (0) PDF 0.00 Byte (0) Comment (0) Favorites

      Abstract:This paper reviews the classification of gluten protein, the process of gluten formation and the factors affecting gluten formation and physicochemical properties. The molecular structure of wheat gliadin and glutenin, and the three levels of glutenin aggregates are summarized. The effects of internal and external factors such as glutenin aggregates, water, temperature, shear rate and pressure on the physical and chemical properties of gluten are analyzed. It is believed that the material basis of dough viscoelasticity is mainly glutenin and gliadin, and largely depends on the size and aggregation of aggregates formed by glutenin. The physicochemical properties of glutenin aggregates are influenced by internal and external factors such as glutenin protein type, water content, temperature and pressure. These factors not only determine the physicochemical properties of aggregates formed by glutenin, but also affect the rate of aggregate formation. Glutenin agglomeration kinetics is an important reference for selecting gluten protein or gluten formation techniques.

      Abstract:In this paper, the progress of the mechanism of milk fat crystallization is reviewed, and the effects of milk fat chemical composition, kinetic properties, fractal properties of polymorphic crystallization, and fat crystal networks are described in detail. In milk fat, the chemical composition of triglycerides plays a decisive role in fat crystallization. The melting point increased with the increase of carbon chain length when carbon chain is the same, the melting point order is: saturated fatty acid> conjugated trienoic acid> monoacrylic acid> diacrylic acid> nonconjugated trienoic acid. The melting point of α crystals is low, poor stability and hard to form. The melting point of β crystals is high, more stable and easy to form. The β′ crystals are optimum, which have good plasticity and taste. It is known from the fractal theory that the partial and whole structure of the system is similar in terms of morphology, function, and information. Through the microscopic analysis of crystal network, the overall structural performance can be deduced. In summary, fat crystallization plays an important role in dairy science. How to control fat crystallization to improve the quality of dairy products is of great significance.
