Abstract:The method of 16S rDNA sequencing was used to explore effect of rose-flower water extract (RWE) on intestinal flora in rats, and combining with the results of transcriptomic analysis to explore the role of the function of RWE. SD rats full of 6-week-age were sacrificed and controlled group(ZC) were gavaged with distilled water, experimental group were respectively gavaged with low, medium and high-dose of RWE, each group with 8 rats. The results indicated that low, medium and high-dose of RWE had no significant effect on index of blood lipid and index of growth and development of normal rats. The difference in the content of Prevotellaceae in rats’ faeces and the content of Prevotella in rats’ cecum were obvious. They were all high-dose group < controlled group < medium-dose group < low-dose group. Compared with controlled group, the liver transcriptome of rats was significantly affected by different dose of RWE. The differentially expressed genes of low-dose of RWE was 101, and the significantly enrichment pathway was antigen processing and presentation(ko04612). The differentially expressed genes of medium-dose of RWE was also 101, and they mainly enriched in 4 pathways including the pathway of antigen processing and presentation and TNF signaling pathway (ko04668), etc. The differentially expressed genes of high-dose of RWE was 76, and they mainly enriched in 6 pathways including antigen processing and presentation and MAPK signaling pathway(ko04010), etc. There were also significant changes in the doses. The research indicated that RWE had a significant influence on Prevotella on intestinal tract of rat and also significantly affected the immune response of the liver. It also suggested that RWE can affect the body's health by interfering with the diversity of intestinal microbial and it had the potential to induce the aging of tumor cells and improve the immune function of the body.

Abstract:In order to improve the characteristics of fish gelatin or sodium alginate single edible film, different ratios of sodium alginate/ fish gelatin complex were adopted to prepare the composite film. Glycerol(3%, w/w) was supplied as the plasticizer. Water vapor permeance, solubility, moisture content, chromatism values, tensile strength and antibacterial activity were taken into account to evaluate the film properties. Fish gelatin and sodium alginate single film were set as the control. The present research found that with the sodium alginate/ fish gelatin ratio increased from 1 ∶ 9 to 1 ∶ 1, the water vapor permeance rate of the composite film decreased from 6.19 gm-1d-1MPa-1 to 2.80 gm-1d-1MPa-1, while the solubility increased from 61.6% to 73.92%. Those meant that the water-resisting property and the solubility were greatly improved. In addition, the strength tensile of the film was improved significantly with the fish gelatin concentration increasing from 2.5% to 4.5%. Furthermore, the composite film reached the optimum tensile strength (458.00 g·f) at the fish gelatin concentration of 4.5%. Both single film and composite film showed great antimicrobial properties to Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.
Abstract:Rice bran, usually be used for the production of nutritional rice bran oil, is the main by-product of rice processing. But the utilization rate of rice bran is lower than 10% because of the rapid rancidity caused by rice bran lipase. Microwave treatment was used in this research. The aim of this study was to find the influences on the rice bran acid values, oryzanol contents, peroxide values and fatty acid compositions after microwave treatment. Results showed the microwave treatment reduced the lipase activity and restrained the increase of acid value significantly (P<0.05), especially for 6 min treatment, the acid value was still lower than 30 mg/g (KOH) in comparison to more than 155 mg/g (KOH) for the control group after 56 days storage. Furthermore, the oryzanol contents and fatty acid compositions were not influenced significantly (P>0.05), which indicated the rice bran oil was still in a good quality. Therefore, microwave treatment was a very good method for rice bran stabilization.

Abstract:In order to investigate the effect of extrusion treatment on the characteristics of infant rice powder in the dry process, this study analyzed the differences of physicochemical properties and the digestion characteristics of rice powder with four typical varieties of rice(Northeast rice, Indica rice, Thai rice, and Glutinous rice) by extrusion. The results showed that the starch composition among different rice varieties under some extruding conditions was significantly different (P<0.05), as well the swelling degree, water absorption index and water solubility index. The content of resistant starch in indica rice was the highest, close to 15%, and the content of rapid digestion starch was less than 75% in glutinous rice. The pepsin digestibility and total protein digestibility of glutinous rice were lower than those of the other three kinds of rice powder, which may be due to the different structure and composition of protein in glutinous rice. The results of this study provide the theoretical basis for the application of extrusion technology in infant rice powder production and the effect on different rice varieties.

Abstract:Objective: Investigating the effects of hairtail fishmeal on the quality of soy sauce koji. Method: Hairtail fishmeal was added to the preparation of Zhoushan traditional soy sauce koji, while changes in the numbers of the yeast colonies and Aspergillus oryzae spores were measured. Effects of hairtail fishmeal on the activity of koji protease in soy sauce were measured by Folin-phenol reagent method. Besides, effects of the hairtail fishmeal on the volatile components of the fermented soy sauce koji were investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Result: Adding appropriate amount of hairtail fishmeal promoted the growth of yeast and Aspergillus oryzae spores in the process of koji making(36 h), especially the number of spores in each group reached more than 8.5×108. The protease activity in each treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05) except for 24 h. The amino nitrogen of soy sauce koji in each experimental group were higher than that in the control group for about 14.5%, 18.8%, and 19.4% in 30 h, respectively. There were 33 types of volatile components identified by GC-MS in each experimental group, among which, volatile components in the groups of 4% addition were 11.55% higher than that of the control group. Although the content was lower than that in the groups of 6% addition, there was a significant decrease in the components such as nonanal which could produce smell of fish. Conclusion: Adding appropriate amount of hairtail fishmeal can promote the growth of microorganism and the activity of protease in soy sauce koji. However, it did not show a significant effect on the colour, odor and fluidity of the soy sauce koji. Besides, it could also raise the content of the amino nitrogen. The addition of fishmeal had little effect on the kinds of volatile compounds in soy sauce koji, yet the excessive amount of fishmeal brought bad flavor to soy sauce koji.

Abstract:The effect of 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) treatment on controlling postharvest decay in Ziziphus mauritiana fruit and the possible mechanisms were investigated. The harvested “Zhongqin” Indian jujube (Ziziphus mauritiana Lamk. cv. Zhongqing) fruit were treated with 0 and 1.8 μL/L 1-MCP for 12 h respectively, and then stored at(15 ± 1) ℃. During storage, fruit decay index, disease index, activities of disease defense-related enzymes of“Zhongqin” Indian jujube, including chitinase (CHI), β-1,3-glucanase (GLU), phenylalanine ammonialyase (PAL) and the content of phenolics and lignin were determined. The results indicated that 1-MCP treatment had significantly lower decay index and disease index than control; CHI and GLU were rapidly synthesized at early storage which directly attack microbial cell wall together and form the first defensive line to pathogen; on the other hand PAL activities increased quickly leading the increasing phenolics and lignin content, which formed the structural barriers and the second defensive line to pathogen. These results suggest that the inhibition of postharvest disease of Indian jujube fruit by 1-MCP was related to the induction of defensive enzyme activities.
Abstract:To improve the storage period of freshwater fish floss, the tea polyphenol phospholipids complex (TPP-PL) was synthesized, and its solubility, slow-releasing potential, antioxidant activity, peroxide value and fatty acid composition were studied. The results showed that phospholipid coating can effectively improve the lipophilicity of tea polyphenols. In the chloroform-water and ethyl acetate-water solvent systems, the hydrophilic lipophilic partition coefficient K of TPP-PL and TPP were 150.8 and 21.33, respectively. The TPP-PL appears good slow-releasing potential. After 24 hours of storage, the in vitro releasing rate of TPP-PL was only 24% ± 3.6%, indicating that the TPP-PL has a good and sustained releasing capacity. In addition, the DPPH free radical scavenging ability and the ferric reducing antioxidant power of TPP-PL have a dose effect. The DPPH free radical scavenging ability of TPP-PL was similar with that of TPP due to the demulsification effect, while the ferric reducing antioxidant power of TPP-PL was slight lower than that of TPP. The TPP and TPP-PL were applied in the frying of freshwater fish floss. The peroxide value of the TPP treated fish floss is 50 meq/kg more than that of the TPP-PL treated fish floss after storage for 20 days. After frying the fish floss, the content of unsaturated fatty acids in fish meat was decreased, linoleic acid significantly reduced by 11.02%, the content of saturated fat increased, the content of stearic acid increased significantly by 23.28%, stearic acid increment (1.46%) and linoleic acid reduction (4.29%) of fish floss with TPP-PL were lower than stearic acid increment (12.05%) and linoleic acid reduction (8.26%) of fish floss with TPP. It demonstrated that the TPP-PL can prevent the lipid oxidation during the frying process and storage, extend the shelf-life, and maintain the nutrition of the fish floss. The TPP-PL has great potential in industrial development and utilization.

The degree of moisture loss slowed by the by-products hydrolysates on frozen mandarin fish was analyzed through soaking weight gain, defrosting loss rate and cooking loss rate. Using low field nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer, texture analyzer, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), the water binding status, texture characteristics and microstructure were measured respectively, to clarify the effect of by-products hydrolysates with salt on water binding capacity. The results showed that: the hydrolysates of swim bladder with 2.5% salt solution was effective in alleviating the defrosting loss rate of frozen mandarin fish and the decrease of cooking loss rate. The protective effect on frozen mandarin fish texture was remarkable. The integral area of movable water(T22) in mandarin fish is significantly larger than that in the blank group (P<0.05), and also, the amount of intercept water in the muscle fiber was more than before treatment, which meant the overall fluidity weakened. The microstructure validates that the combined treatment of swim bladder hydrolysates with salt on frozen mandarin fish has a complete structure with strong muscle fibers and small gaps. Therefore, the quality of frozen mandarin fish can be maintained by the treatment of swim bladder hydrolysates with 2.5% salt solution, which can provide a theoretical basis for the development of a new type of phosphorus free water-retaining agent.

The results showed that more characteristic peak of protein with smooth baseline, less noise and higher signal-to-noise ratio were obtained by ethanol/ formic acid treatment method. The 461 isolates of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was 97.6% consistency at the species level. Conclusion: MALDI-TOF-MS is a fast and accurate method for the identification of V. parahaemolyticus by MALDI-TOF-MS, and it can be used for routine detection because of its good stability and repeatability.
Abstract:As a common human pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) can contaminate food through various means and lead to S. aureus food poisoning (SFP). The secretion of Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) in S. aureus can greatly increase its invasion and pathogenicity. By comparing the carrying and expression of the SE genes, it’s aimed to lay a foundation for further analysis of the relationship between the expression of SE genes and environmental conditions, so as to provide theoretical and data support for SFP prevention and control. In this study, PCR and 3MTMTecraTM Staph enterotoxin ID test were used to detect the carrying and expression of 5 traditional SE (SEA-SEE) genes in 33 foodborne S. aureus isolates. The results showed that the detection rate of SEs genes was 100%, with the highest and lowest carrying rates of seb (48.48%, 16/33) and see (9.09%, 3/33), respectively. Only 63.64% (21/33) of these isolates had expressed SEs. It is proved that the carrying of SEs doesn’t mean its correct expression of the toxin protein; corresponding system regulation and appropriate environmental factors may be also needed.

Abstract:In this paper, solid phase microextraction (SPME) combined GC-MS (SPEM/GC-MS) was used to identify the composition of the volatile compounds produced by fusarium pose in different culture periods. The results showed that different volatile compounds were produced of aldehydes, alcohols, ketones, acids and aromatic compounds in different culture stages. And at the same time the volatile flavor compounds of barley and finished malt has a high degree of similarity. However, it had an influence on the malt flavor that was mainly reflected in content of flavor compounds, did not produce new flavor metabolic compounds. Therefore, fusarium pose on the composition of malt flavor and the formation will have a certain impact.
