However, little is known about the impact of refrigerated and frozen storage on aronia berry composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to characterize how storage at 4 ± 2 °C and − 20 ± 2 °C, and temperature cycles affect aronia berry polyphenols, total solid content, pH, titratable acidity, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity, sugar content, acid content, color, and cell structure. Refrigerated storage reduced proanthocyanidins (21%), anthocyanins (36%), and total phenols (21%) after 12 weeks. Frozen storage increased polyphenols in the first 6 mo. of frozen storage but then decreased polyphenols at mo. 8 to levels similar to initial values. Frozen temperature cycling reduced anthocyanins 18% but did not affect total phenols or proanthocyanidins. Scanning electron microscopy analysis indicated temperature cycling induced cell damage, shrinking, and fusion. This disruption led to the release of anthocyanins inside the berry tissue. PPO activity did not significantly correlate with the decrease in polyphenol content during storage. °Brix did not significantly change during refrigeration and frozen storage but did during the 12th temperature cycle. Aronia berries’ pH and titratable acidity were affected more by refrigeration than frozen and temperature storage. The pH increased by 4% during refrigeration, and titratable acidity decreased by 17% at 12 weeks. In conclusion, refrigerated storage results in a modest reduction of aronia berry polyphenols, but absolute extractable polyphenols are stable for up to 8 months of frozen storage.展开更多

文摘Postharvest storage of many freshly picked berries affects polyphenol and sugar content. However, little is known about the impact of refrigerated and frozen storage on aronia berry composition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to characterize how storage at 4 ± 2 °C and − 20 ± 2 °C, and temperature cycles affect aronia berry polyphenols, total solid content, pH, titratable acidity, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity, sugar content, acid content, color, and cell structure. Refrigerated storage reduced proanthocyanidins (21%), anthocyanins (36%), and total phenols (21%) after 12 weeks. Frozen storage increased polyphenols in the first 6 mo. of frozen storage but then decreased polyphenols at mo. 8 to levels similar to initial values. Frozen temperature cycling reduced anthocyanins 18% but did not affect total phenols or proanthocyanidins. Scanning electron microscopy analysis indicated temperature cycling induced cell damage, shrinking, and fusion. This disruption led to the release of anthocyanins inside the berry tissue. PPO activity did not significantly correlate with the decrease in polyphenol content during storage. °Brix did not significantly change during refrigeration and frozen storage but did during the 12th temperature cycle. Aronia berries’ pH and titratable acidity were affected more by refrigeration than frozen and temperature storage. The pH increased by 4% during refrigeration, and titratable acidity decreased by 17% at 12 weeks. In conclusion, refrigerated storage results in a modest reduction of aronia berry polyphenols, but absolute extractable polyphenols are stable for up to 8 months of frozen storage.
文摘为筛选出有效保留黑果花楸果脯酚类物质及抗氧化活性的干燥加工方法,分别采用热风干燥、微波-热风干燥、真空冷冻干燥3种干燥加工方式处理黑果花楸,测定其干燥后酚类物质含量、单体酚类物质的组成及抗氧化活性,并分析了黑果花楸果脯酚类物质与抗氧化活性之间的相关性。结果表明:经过干燥加工处理后黑果花楸果脯总酚含量和总黄酮含量显著下降,采用真空冷冻干燥二者保留率最高(总酚保留率为85.35%,总黄酮保留率为85.37%);抗氧化活性均有不同程度的下降,真空冷冻干燥组表现出最强的抗氧化能力(1,1-二苯基-2-三硝基苯肼(DPPH)自由基清除率为21.06%,2,2’-联氮-双(3-乙基苯并噻唑啉-6-磺酸)(ABTS)阳离子自由基清除率为82.19%,铁离子还原抗氧化能力为798μmol Trolox/100 g m_(d),羟基自由基清除率为69.68%)。经真空冷冻干燥处理后,黑果花楸果脯中白藜芦醇、阿魏酸、芥子酸、表儿茶素含量无显著变化,肉桂酸含量显著增加,其他各单体酚含量均显著降低。黑果花楸果脯的总酚含量、总黄酮含量与DPPH自由基清除率、ABTS阳离子自由基清除率、铁离子还原抗氧化能力之间呈显著正相关(P<0.05),与羟基自由基清除率的相关性不显著,黑果花楸果脯中主要起抗氧化作用的单体酚类物质为槲皮素、芦丁、咖啡酸、白藜芦醇。综上,真空冷冻干燥是一种有效保留黑果花楸中酚类物质及抗氧化活性的加工方式。
