Gao Y, Guo Y, Ye J, Ahmad HN, Zhu J. Salt reduction in myofibrillar protein gel via inhomogeneous distribution of sodium-containing encapsulated fish oil coacervate: Mucopenetration ability of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 268:131998. [PMID: 38697415 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
The potential application of fish oil microcapsules as salt reduction strategies in low-salt myofibrillar protein (MP) gel was investigated by employing soy protein isolates/carboxymethyl cellulose sodium (SPI-CMC) coacervates enriched with 25 mM sodium chloride and exploring their rheological characteristics, taste perception, and microstructure. The results revealed that the SPI-CMC coacervate phase exhibited the highest sodium content under 25 mM sodium level, albeit with uneven distribution. Notably, the hydrophilic and adhesive properties of CMC to sodium facilitated the in vitro release of sodium during oral digestion, as evidenced by the excellent wettability and mucopenetration ability of CMC. Remarkably, the fish oil microcapsules incorporating SPI-CMC as the wall material, prepared at pH 3.5 with a core-to-wall ratio of 1:1, demonstrated the highest encapsulation efficiency, which was supported by the strong hydrogen bonding. Interestingly, the presence of SPI-CMC coacervates and fish oil microcapsules enhanced the interaction between MPs and strengthened the low-salt MP gel network. Coupled with electronic tongue analysis, the incorporation of fish oil microcapsules slightly exacerbated the non-uniformity of sodium distribution. This ultimately contributed to an enhanced perception of saltiness, richness, and aftertaste in low-salt protein gels. Overall, the incorporation of fish oil microcapsules emerged as an effective salt reduction strategy in low-salt MP gel.

Abstract
Excessive consumption of salt is associated with increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes, and other health issues. However, it is challenging to find appropriate strategies that balance sensory qualities while achieving sodium reduction as salt plays a crucial role in providing desired appearance, texture, and taste. The impact of hydrocolloid properties (addition and type) on saltiness perception were reviewed. Additionally, considering the interactions between food components, both covalent and noncovalent, we propose designing specialized colloidal structures capable of binding sodium ions to enhance salt-taste perception. The effects of hydrocolloids on the physicochemical, structural, and sensory qualities of gel foods are then discussed. Finally, by addressing current issues with low-salt foods and consumer demands, we provide a future outlook for low-salt food development. The selection of suitable hydrocolloids and precise control of the addition are crucial considerations for achieving salt reduction. The interaction between hydrocolloids and other food components can be utilized to design specialized colloidal structures, thereby accomplishing gel-based salt reduction and enhancing properties. This review serves as a theoretical reference for developing healthy, nutritious, and flavorful low-salt foods that can aid in the prevention and mitigation of diseases associated with excessive salt consumption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Excessive sugar consumption has been linked to type 2 diabetes, obesity and other diseases. Therefore, it is indispensable to reduce sugar of food. However, the sensory characteristics of food are affected after sugar reduction (SR). Currently, SR has been reported in drinks, jams, candies, and other fruit related or sweet foods; but salty or protein related foods have not been explored, therefore there is a big gap that needs to be filled. RESULTS Sensory scores of initial sweetness and sweetness reduced by 0.26 and 0.12 in 10% SR dried fish mince product compared with control, and there was a small difference between 25% SR (3.33) and 40% SR (3.09) samples. It also showed that 10% SR sample had a small reduction in sweetness value and free sugar content by 3.5% (0.42/11.9) and 7.8% (2.12/27.06) compared with control; while values in 25% SR sample decreased sharply but were not much different from 40% SR sample. Electronic nose results showed that SR had a small effect on odor. Texture analysis showed that texture properties of 25% SR sample were significantly different from control. CONCLUSIONS Dried fish mince product with below 10% SR had a small difference on the sensory characteristics and there was a big change when SR was more than 20%. Dried fish mince product with 25% SR and 40% SR had no significant difference. SR had a small effect on odor, but had a great effect on texture properties, especially over 20% SR. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Reducing salt in food without compromising its quality is a huge challenge. Some review articles have been recently published on saltiness perception in some colloidal systems such as emulsions. However, no published reviews are available on saltiness perceptions of gel-based matrices, even though salt release and perception in these systems have been extensively studied. This article reviews the recent advances in salt perception in gel-based systems and provides a detailed analysis of the main factors affecting salt release. Strategies to enhance saltiness perception in gels and emulsion-filled gels are also reviewed. Saltiness perception can be improved through addition of biopolymers (proteins and polysaccharides) due to their ability to modulate texture and/or to adhere to or penetrate through the mucosal membrane on the tongue to prolong sodium retention. The composition of the product and the distribution of salt within the matrix are the two main factors affecting the perception of salty taste. Food structure re-design can lead to control the level of interaction between the salt and other components and change the structure, which in turn affects the mobility and release of the salt. The change of ingredients/matrix can affect the texture of the product, highlighting the importance of sensory evaluation.

Abstract
This study intended to investigate the synergistic effect of direct current magnetic field (DC-MF) and calcium chloride (CaCl2) on improving the saltiness and quality of pork gel and to explore the potential adjustment mechanisms involved. Pork mince was subjected to low-salt treatment of DC-MF for 3 h (T1), CaCl2 substitution (T2) or DC-MF combined with CaCl2 (T3) respectively under high and low salt controls (HC and LC). Heat-induced gels of pork mince were prepared and analyzed in terms of gel texture, saltiness perception, moisture status, salt release and protein structure. Results indicated that DC-MF combined with CaCl2 treatment could reduce the addition of sodium chloride by 5% while maintaining the saltiness and overall acceptability of mince as well as improving its texture and yield. Further studies revealed that DC-MF in concert with CaCl2 treatment could not only increase the moisture content of mince gel, but also enhance saltiness perception by causing gel matrix to release salt-bearing juices under external forces. The energy spectrum analysis also illustrated that co-treatment technique could avoid the salt loss of minced meat during cooking process. Finally, a possible potential regulatory mechanism was speculated that the synergistic action of DC-MF and CaCl2 could alter the gel texture and sodium salt availability by modifying protein conformation and inducing a competitive binding reaction site for calcium and sodium ions. In conclusion, synergistic treatment by DC-MF and CaCl2 was a potential strategy in meat salt reduction.

Abstract
Carrageenan, a polysaccharide derived from red algae, has a long history of use as a food additive in food. Carrageenan comes in three classes, κ-, ι-, and λ-carrageenan, with different properties attributed to their organosulfate substitution levels, and their interactions with other food components give rise to properties such as water holding, thickening, gelling, and stabilizing. Over the years, carrageenan has been used in wide variety of food products such as meat, dairy, and flour-based products, and their mechanisms and functions in these matrices have also been studied. With the emergence of novel food technologies, carrageenan's potential applications have been extensively explored alongside, including encapsulation, edible films/coatings, plant-based analogs, and 3D/4D printing. As the food technology evolves, the required functions of food ingredients have changed, and carrageenan is being investigated for its role in these new areas. However, there are many similarities in the use of carrageenan in both classic and emerging applications, and understanding the underlying principles of carrageenan will lead to a proper use of carrageenan in emerging food products. This review focuses on the potential of carrageenan as a food ingredient in these emerging technologies mainly based on papers published within the past five years, highlighting its functions and applications to better understand its role in food products.

Abstract
Sodium salt is one of the important additives in food processing. However, excessive intake of sodium salt may cause a series of cardiovascular diseases. Nowadays, sodium intake in most countries is higher than the World Health Organization recommends maximum consumption (5 g/d). 20% of the sodium intake in diets comes from meat products. Therefore, reducing the content of sodium salt in meat products and developing sodium salt-reduction meat products have attracted more and more attention for consumers. In this paper, the roles of sodium salt in meat product processing were reviewed. At the same time, sodium salt reduction strategies and existing problems were summarized and discussed. Multiple factors need to be considered to improve the salt-reduction meat product's quality. Relying on a single technology has a narrow application area, and it is difficult to achieve salt reduction. Therefore, a combination of multiple strategies could obtain a more ideal effect.

Analysis of Volatile Compounds in Processed Cream Cheese Models for the Prediction of "Fresh Cream" Aroma Perception. Molecules 2023; 28:7224. [PMID: 37894701 PMCID: PMC10609086 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28207224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Controlling flavor perception by analyzing volatile and taste compounds is a key challenge for food industries, as flavor is the result of a complex mix of components. Machine-learning methodologies are already used to predict odor perception, but they are used to a lesser extent to predict aroma perception. The objectives of this work were, for the processed cream cheese models studied, to (1) analyze the impact of the composition and process on the sensory perception and VOC release and (2) predict "fresh cream" aroma perception from the VOC characteristics. Sixteen processed cream cheese models were produced according to a three-factor experimental design: the texturing agent type (κ-carrageenan, agar-agar) and level and the heating time. A R-A-T-A test on 59 consumers was carried out to describe the sensory perception of the cheese models. VOC release from the cheese model boli during swallowing was investigated with an in vitro masticator (Oniris device patent), followed by HS-SPME-GC-(ToF)MS analysis. Regression trees and random forests were used to predict "fresh cream" aroma perception, i.e., one of the main drivers of liking of processed cheeses, from the VOC release during swallowing. Agar-agar cheese models were perceived as having a "milk" odor and favored the release of a greater number of VOCs; κ-carrageenan samples were perceived as having a "granular" and "brittle" texture and a "salty" and "sour" taste and displayed a VOC retention capacity. Heating induced firmer cheese models and promoted Maillard VOCs responsible for "cooked" and "chemical" aroma perceptions. Octa-3,5-dien-2-one and octane-2,3-dione were the two main VOCs that contributed positively to the "fresh cream" aroma perception. Thus, regression trees and random forests are powerful statistical tools to provide a first insight into predicting the aroma of cheese models based on VOC characteristics.

Abstract
Thermal-denatured whey protein-milk fat emulsion gels with different degrees of pre-emulsification were prepared by pre-emulsifying milk fat with thermal-denatured whey protein and used in the preparation of reduced-sodium processed cheeses. The effect of the thermal-denatured whey protein pre-emulsification process on the texture and microstructure of reduced-sodium processed cheeses was evaluated by studying the composition, color, texture, functional properties, microstructure and sensory analysis of the processed cheeses. The results showed that compared with cheese without pre-emulsified fat (1.5% ES control), the moisture content of cheese with pre-emulsified 100% fat (1.5% ES100) increased by 5.81%, the L* values increased by 7.61%, the hardness increased by 43.24%, and the free oil release decreased by 38%. The microstructure showed that the particle size of fat was significantly reduced, and the distribution was more uniform. In addition, compared with the cheese added with 3% emulsifying salt (3% ES control), the amount of emulsifying salt in the 1.5% ES100 decreased by 50%, but the fat distribution of the two kinds of cheese tended to be consistent, and there was no obvious change in texture characteristics and meltability. Sensory scores increased with the increase in pre-emulsification degree. Overall, the pre-emulsification of milk fat with thermal-denatured whey protein can reduce the sodium content of processed cheese and improve its quality.

Li Y, Cheng Q, Guo J, Wang J, Yang X. Structuring meat analogs by citrus fiber with reduced salt intake. J Food Sci 2023. [PMID: 37421351 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.16690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 06/14/2023] [Accepted: 06/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/10/2023]
Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effect of addition of citrus fiber (CF; 5% and 10%, which consists mainly of soluble pectin and insoluble cellulose) on physical properties and microstructure of meat analogs based on soy protein isolate and wheat gluten using high-moisture extrusion. Layered structure or microstructure of meat analogs was observed by scanning electron microscope and confocal laser scanning microscope. Compared to the control (without CF), meat analogs with CF addition showed disorder layered microstructure, which was interconnected with smaller fibers. Rheological measurements (strain sweep and frequency sweep) show that the incorporation of CF resulted in meat analogs with softer texture. The moisture content of meat analogs increased significantly upon the addition of CF, which was also correlated with juiciness. Sensory evaluation and dynamic salt release results confirm that the saltiness of meat analogs with CF addition was enhanced due to the structural changes of phase-separated structures, achieving salt reduction by 20% and showing a saltiness similar to the control sample. This research provides a novel approach to modulate the saltiness perception of meat analogs by modifying the phase separation of protein/polysaccharides. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Citrus fiber is added to the plant protein matrix to prepare meat analogs with high moisture content and enhanced saltiness perception via modifying the phase separation of protein/polysaccharides. This work provided a potential target for the meat industry to produce the meat analogs with less salt intake. Further research can be conducted using modified fibrous or inner structure of meat analogs to improve its quality.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of added jujube polysaccharide (JP) and Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) on the texture, rheological properties, and microstructure of goat milk cheese. Seven groups of fresh goat milk cheese were produced with 4 levels (0, 0.2, 0.6, and 1%, wt/wt) of JP and LBP. The goat milk cheese containing 1% JP showed the highest water-holding capacity, hardness, and the strongest rheological properties by creating a denser and more stable casein network structure. In addition, the yield of goat milk cheese was substantially improved as a result of JP incorporation. Cheeses containing LBP expressed lower fat content, higher moisture, and softer texture compared with the control cheese. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and low-field nuclear magnetic resonance analysis demonstrated that the addition of JP improved the stability of the secondary protein structure in cheese and significantly enhanced the binding capacity of the casein matrix to water molecules due to strengthened intermolecular interactions. The current research demonstrated the potential feasibility of modifying the texture of goat milk cheese by JP or LBP, available for developing tunable goat milk cheese to satisfy consumer preferences and production needs.

Mining marine metagenomes revealed a quorum-quenching lactonase with improved biochemical properties that inhibits the food spoilage bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens.

Abstract
The marine environment presents great potential as a source of microorganisms that possess novel enzymes with unique activities and biochemical properties. Examples of such are the quorum-quenching (QQ) enzymes that hydrolyze bacterial quorum-sensing (QS) signaling molecules, such as N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs). QS is a form of cell-to-cell communication that enables bacteria to synchronize gene expression in correlation with population density. Searching marine metagenomes for sequences homologous to an AHL lactonase from the phosphotriesterase-like lactonase (PLL) family, we identified new putative AHL lactonases (sharing 30-40% amino acid identity to a thermostable PLL member). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that these putative AHL lactonases comprise a new clade of marine enzymes in the PLL family. Following recombinant expression and purification, we verified the AHL lactonase activity for one of these proteins, named marine originated Lactonase Related Protein (moLRP). This enzyme presented greater activity and stability at a broad range of temperatures and pH, and tolerance to high salinity levels (up to 5M NaCl), as well as higher durability in bacterial culture, compared to another PLL member. The addition of purified moLRP to cultures of Pseudomonas fluorescens inhibited its extracellular protease activity, expression of the protease encoding gene, biofilm formation, and the sedimentation process in milk-based medium. These findings suggest that moLRP is adapted to the marine environment, and can potentially serve as an effective QQ enzyme, inhibiting the QS process in gram-negative bacteria involved in food spoilage. Importance Our results emphasize the potential of sequence and structure-based identification of new quorum-quenching (QQ) enzymes from environmental metagenomes, such as from the ocean, with improved stability or activity. The findings also suggest that purified QQ enzymes can present new strategies against food spoilage, in addition to their recognized involvement in inhibiting bacterial pathogen virulence factors. Future studies on the delivery and safety of enzymatic QQ strategy against bacterial food spoilage should be performed.

Abstract
The focus of the global cheese industry on accessing new markets for cheese is currently driving a greater need for innovation in cheese products. Research to date suggests that, for example, East Asian consumers prefer cheeses that have a soft texture, with mild and milky flavors. Strategies for achieving such cheese characteristics are reviewed in this article. For example, incorporation of polysaccharides into cheese results in cheese with higher moisture levels and softer textures; this also results in modification of other properties such as adhesiveness, meltability and flavor release. Hydrated polysaccharides may be considered as filler particles within cheese matrices, and therefore filled gel models with suitable filler particles can be used to establish the effect of filler volume, size and surface properties on the fractural and rheological properties of cheese matrices, thus guiding the use of polysaccharides. Addition of plant proteins such as soy and pea protein can also result in cheeses with softer texture. Furthermore, it has been suggested that heat-induced gelation of soy or pea protein with casein results in a gel structure consisting of two independent protein gels, thus facilitating the design of bespoke structures by adjusting the ratio of the two proteins. Finally, it is proposed that incorporation of ingredients with sensory properties familiar to East and Southeast Asian consumers and with the capacity to achieve bespoke textures offer potential for the development of cheese products for consumers in these markets.

Abstract
This study aimed to understand how the microstructure of gelled foods impacts the diffusion of a volatile antimicrobial compound and its efficacy at different depths from the surface. Carvacrol-loaded polylactic acid film was used to inhibit the growth of Pseudomonas fluorescens in WPI-carrageenan gels during storage at 4 °C. The diffusion of antimicrobials was increased in gels having larger average pore size. The antimicrobial efficacy of the antimicrobial packaging was dependent on the diffusion of carvacrol within the gels. The final concentration of carvacrol in the top layer was more than 4 fold higher than that in the middle layer and more than 13-fold higher than that in the bottom layer, resulting in a more effective inhibition in the top layer than those in the middle and bottom layers. Our study demonstrates the importance of considering the diffusion of antimicrobials in solid/semi-solid foods in the antimicrobial packaging design.
