The pH, turbidity, colour (L*, a*, b*, and ∆E*), gas concentrations in the package, relative foaming capacity (RFC), and foaming stability were analysed during storage at 4 °C. The protease (1,000 ± 60.82) and lipase (790 ± 41.63) increased RFC values significantly (control: 616 ± 36.05) on the initial day. The enzymes significantly decreased (P < 0.05) the turbidity values from 0.46 ± 0.10 (control) to –0.30 ± 0.05 (lipase) and –0.35 ± 0.03 (protease), whereas it was increased by phospholipase-A2 (0.53 ± 0.06). This research points out the efficacy of the enzymes in improving functionality of EWP. In conclusion, treatment with protease enzyme provided the best RFC values at day 27. However, utilisation of protease led to decrease in L* and b* values.

The samples were analyzed in terms of gas composition inside packaging, pH, total soluble solid content, water activity, color, texture, FT-NIR and microbial counts for up to 40 days at 4 0 C. The experiments showed that all coating materials preserved the quality of fresh strawberry compared to untreated ones. Among the treatments, incorporation of the natamycin in the chitosan coating (CH+NT) reduced the O 2 consumption of the fruit and showed better effects on delaying changes of pH, total soluble solid content, water activity and microbial counts. The incorporation of different antimicrobial agents into chitosan matrix did not reveal any significant effect on lightness (L*) and redness (a*) of strawberry. Among the treatments, CH+PE and CH+NT showed significantly higher antimicrobial effect against the mesophilic bacteria and yeast and mold. As a general result, antimicrobial active packaging based on the combination of chitosan coating with antimicrobial agents increased the shelf life of fresh strawberry compared to uncoated fruit.

The films used were monolayer polypropylene (PP), a multilayer (polyethylene/nylon/ethylene vinyl alcohol/polyethylene: PE/nylon/EVOH/PE), film and a metallized (polyethylene terephthalate/ethylene-vinyl acetate/linear low-density polyethylene: metallized PET/EVA/LLDPE) material. D-limonene was used as the sorbate and was added to each of the FSLs. After HPP treatment at 800 MPa, 10 min, 60°C, the amount of Dlimonene sorbed by the packaging materials and the amount remaining in the FSL was measured. Untreated controls (1 atm, 60°C and 40°C) were also prepared. Extraction of the D-limonene from the films was performed using a purge/trap method. D-limonene was quantified in both the films and the FSL, using gas chromatography (GC). The results showed that D-limonene concentration, in both the films and the food simulants, was not significantly affected by HPP, except for the metallized PET/EVA/LLDPE. Significant differences in D-limonene sorption were found in comparison with the control pouches. The results also showed that changes in temperature significantly affected the sorption behaviour of all films.

The internal quality attributes such as weight-loss (WL), albumen viscosity, Haugh unit (HU), yolk index, total soluble-solids, albumen and yolk’s pH were monitored. Control groups had the worst HU (50.04), WL (8.35%), albumen pH (9.27) and viscosity (7.72 mPa·s) values after storage. The best interior qualities were obtained by shellac coating [HU (72.37), WL (1.37) and viscosity (30.10 mPa·s)] and sonication (albumen pH: 8.22). Thus, the shellac-coated eggs maintained all the internal quality parameters at the highest values, while the ozone and ultrasound only helped to keep the internal quality and enhance the shelf-life of eggs.

Research paper thumbnail of Potential of antimicrobial active packaging ‘containing natamycin, nisin, pomegranate and grape seed extract in chitosan coating’ to extend shelf life of fresh strawberry

Food and Bioproducts Processing, 2016

The samples were analyzed in terms of gas composition inside packaging, pH, total soluble solid content, water activity, color, texture, FT-NIR and microbial counts for up to 40 days at 4 0 C. The experiments showed that all coating materials preserved the quality of fresh strawberry compared to untreated ones. Among the treatments, incorporation of the natamycin in the chitosan coating (CH+NT) reduced the O 2 consumption of the fruit and showed better effects on delaying changes of pH, total soluble solid content, water activity and microbial counts. The incorporation of different antimicrobial agents into chitosan matrix did not reveal any significant effect on lightness (L*) and redness (a*) of strawberry. Among the treatments, CH+PE and CH+NT showed significantly higher antimicrobial effect against the mesophilic bacteria and yeast and mold. As a general result, antimicrobial active packaging based on the combination of chitosan coating with antimicrobial agents increased the shelf life of fresh strawberry compared to uncoated fruit.

Latest trends in the market are toward to natural and functional foods that are close to fresh as possible and yet have compatible shelf life. Non-thermal emerging food processing techniques has potential applications for disinfection of shell egg surface, de-contamination of egg product, and inactivation of foodborne microorganisms without compromising the nutritional, functional and sensory characteristics of egg product. Various novel food preservation technologies have recently come under investigation for egg cold-pasteurization such as ohmic heating, pulsed electric field, UV irradiation, oscillating magnetic field, high power ultrasound, radio frequen...

Research paper thumbnail of The effect of high-pressure food processing on the sorption behaviour of selected packaging materials

The films used were monolayer polypropylene (PP), a multilayer (polyethylene/nylon/ethylene vinyl alcohol/polyethylene: PE/nylon/EVOH/PE), film and a metallized (polyethylene terephthalate/ethylene-vinyl acetate/linear low-density polyethylene: metallized PET/EVA/LLDPE) material. D-limonene was used as the sorbate and was added to each of the FSLs. After HPP treatment at 800 MPa, 10 min, 60°C, the amount of Dlimonene sorbed by the packaging materials and the amount remaining in the FSL was measured. Untreated controls (1 atm, 60°C and 40°C) were also prepared. Extraction of the D-limonene from the films was performed using a purge/trap method. D-limonene was quantified in both the films and the FSL, using gas chromatography (GC). The results showed that D-limonene concentration, in both the films and the food simulants, was not significantly affected by HPP, except for the metallized PET/EVA/LLDPE. Significant differences in D-limonene sorption were found in comparison with the control pouches. The results also showed that changes in temperature significantly affected the sorption behaviour of all films.

Research paper thumbnail of Effect of high-pressure processing on the migration of antioxidant Irganox 1076 from polypropylene film into a food simulant

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2004

The effect of high-pressure processing (HPP) on the migration behaviour of a typical antioxidant,... more The effect of high-pressure processing (HPP) on the migration behaviour of a typical antioxidant, Irganox 1076, from polypropylene (PP) flexible structures was studied. Initial concentrations of Irganox 1076 in polypropylene (PP) were 2.0 and 5.0 mg g−1. The migration experiments were carried out on high-pressure treated and non-treated polypropylene pouches containing either 95 or 10% ethanol aqueous food simulating liquids (FSL) for 20 days at 40 and 60 °C. After the contact period, concentrations of Irganox in PP and FSL were measured to determine migration behaviour. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the concentration of Irganox 1076 migrating from PP, and into the FSL for pressure-treated vs non-treated samples. No significant concentration differences were found in non-treated (control) samples and those treated for 5 and 10 min. However, there was a storage time effect on the migration level. There was also a significant migration effect on the migration of Irganox between the two different food simulants, and an increase in the HPP temperature increased the rate of migration.

This is the first study about use of O. basilicum EO in minced beef against bacterial pathogens. Both EOs inhibit microorganisms in in vitro antibacterial tests. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of EOs were determined. The lowest MIC values were obtained with O. onites EO 0.6 µl/ml against S. Typhimurium strains. The MIC values of O. basilicum EO 0.25 µl/ml against microorganisms. Both EOs showed a significant decrease in microorganisms inoculated in minced beef at end of storage. The concentration of the both EOs at 20 µg/mg and 10 µg/mg showed stronger antimicrobial activity against bacterial cocktail of S. Typhimurium in beef; however, the higher conce...

The internal quality attributes such as weight-loss (WL), albumen viscosity, Haugh unit (HU), yolk index, total soluble-solids, albumen and yolk’s pH were monitored. Control groups had the worst HU (50.04), WL (8.35%), albumen pH (9.27) and viscosity (7.72 mPa·s) values after storage. The best interior qualities were obtained by shellac coating [HU (72.37), WL (1.37) and viscosity (30.10 mPa·s)] and sonication (albumen pH: 8.22). Thus, the shellac-coated eggs maintained all the internal quality parameters at the highest values, while the ozone and ultrasound only helped to keep the internal quality and enhance the shelf-life of eggs.
