Ultrasonic-assisted stewing enhances the aroma intensity of chicken broth: A perspective of the aroma-binding behavior of fat

Jun Qi et al.

Summary: This experiment investigated the mechanism of ultrasonic-assisted stewing in enhancing the aroma intensity of chicken broth. Measurements of various parameters such as fat content, droplet sizes, zeta potential, viscosity, surface protein loading, lipid oxidation, and aroma compound concentrations were conducted. The results showed that increasing thermo-ultrasound time led to an increase in fat content, emulsion stability, and aroma-active compounds. However, extended thermo-ultrasound time resulted in increased lipid oxidation and decreased broth stability, ultimately lowering the content of aroma-active compounds.

Characterization of key lipids for binding and generating aroma compounds in roasted mutton by UPLC-ESI-MS/MS and Orbitrap Exploris GC

Huan Liu et al.

Summary: Lipids are important for the flavor quality of roasted mutton, with triglycerides, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylethanolamine being the major lipid classes detected. Certain triglycerides were identified as potential binding lipids for aroma compounds. Differential lipids, especially phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, were found to contribute significantly to aroma compound formation in roasted mutton. Specific phosphatidylcholine species were highlighted as potential markers for distinguishing roasted mutton.

Probing the interaction between selected furan derivatives and porcine myofibrillar proteins by spectroscopic and molecular docking approaches

Xiaoyu Yin et al.

Summary: The interactions between myofibrillar proteins (MPs) and furan derivatives were studied using spectroscopic and molecular docking approaches. The binding capacity of MPs to furan derivatives was found to be influenced by molecular polarity and the position of the branched chain. Fluorescence analysis revealed that the interaction involved both static and dynamic quenching, affecting the microenvironment of tryptophan and tyrosine residues in MPs. Conformational investigation showed that the presence of furan derivatives transformed the ordered structures of MPs into random coils. Molecular docking and thermodynamic parameters indicated that hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic interactions were the main interaction forces between MPs and the four furan derivatives.

Improving the solubility of myofibrillar proteins in water by destroying and suppressing myosin molecular assembly via glycation

Ge Han et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of glycation on the solubility of myofibrillar proteins (MPs) in water. The results showed that MPs conjugated with dextran exhibited higher solubility and stability in water compared to other glycation products. The analysis suggested that the solubilization of MPs may be attributed to the changes in their secondary and tertiary structures.

Ge Han et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of high-intensity ultrasound combined with nonenzymatic glycation on the solubility and structural characteristics of myofibrillar proteins. The results show that this combination method can effectively improve the water solubility of myofibrillar proteins by interfering with their assembly process. This could potentially lead to new applications in the food industry.

Effects of constant power microwave on the adsorption behaviour of myofibril protein to aldehyde flavour compounds

Zhong Han et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of constant power microwave treatment on the adsorption ability of myofibril protein from beef to typical aldehyde flavor compounds. The results demonstrated a significant enhancement in surface hydrophobicity and reactive sulfhydryls content of the protein, leading to increased adsorption capacity for aldehyde flavor compounds. Additionally, the reduced interface energy was found to be a driving force for the adsorption behavior of myofibril protein-flavor compounds at the gas-liquid interface.

Effect of deacetylated konjac glucomannan on heat-induced structural changes and flavor binding ability of fish myosin

Yongxia Xu et al.

Summary: The study found that DKGM can form a stable complex with fish myosin, increasing gel strength and surface hydrophobicity, while decreasing alpha-helical content. Additionally, DKGM enhances the binding capabilities of myosin to flavors by unfolding myosin secondary structures and exposing more binding sites. The increased hydroxyl groups after DKGM treatment also contribute to enhanced flavor adsorption through hydrogen bonding.

Huan Liu et al.

Summary: This study compared the effects of different roasting methods on oyster cuts of roasted lamb, finding that the newer methods all generated rich compounds, with electrically heated air (EHA) being the most effective and suitable for replacing traditional charcoal roasting. The EHA method produced more nonvolatile compounds and higher umami concentrations, and had better sensory evaluations compared to the other methods.

Peipei Dou et al.

Summary: Nonenzymatic glycation significantly increased the binding capacity of beef myofibrillar proteins to aldehyde flavour compounds due to partial unfolding and flexible secondary structure. Glycation with glucose and glucosamine had different effects on binding, with glucose-glycated MP having higher binding capacity for long-chain aldehyde flavour compounds. Glycated MP with glucosamine had higher binding capacity for short-chain aldehyde flavour compounds.
