A nanoemulsion of juglone @ chitosan (NJ) was successfully produced, which exhibited anti-Staphylococcus aureus properties and improved the solubility of juglone. NJ showed significant damage to S. aureus cells and strong biofilm removal ability. The NJ coating in the pork model reduced the levels of harmful substances and preserved the sensory evaluation of the meat. NJ also demonstrated good biocompatibility.
Food poisoning caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) contaminated meat has received a lot of attention. Although juglone has anti-S. aureus properties, its limited water solubility prevents it from being used in food manufacturing. Juglone @ chitosan nanoemulsion (NJ) was produced for the first time in order to increase its solubility. At the same time, it was applied to the pork model. According to the findings, NJ's particle size was 119.30 nm, its polymer dispersity index (PDI) value was 0.290, and its zeta potential was -57.3 mV. And it's stable over a 7-day storage period. The cell shape and membrane integrity of S. aureus were significantly damaged by NJ. At the same time, NJ showed extreme vigor for biofilm removal. The inclusion of NJ coating significantly reduced S. aureus, total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), total viable count (TVC), thiobarbituric acid reactants (TBARS), and pH in the sample when using the pork feeding model. NJ, meantime, halted the sensory evaluation's fall in meat score. Additionally, NJ demonstrated good biocompatibility in mouse acute toxicity tests. The aforementioned findings demonstrate that NJ is anticipated to become an anti-S. aureus and a novel method for coating pork preservation.
