The results showed that the extract of FS was markedly direct mutagenic toward S. typhimurium TA100, induced high sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) and micronucleus (MN) in V79 cells after nitrosation with sodium nitrite. But the non-nitrosated FS did not. The nitrosated fish sauce (NFS) also induced SOS in E. coli PQ37 and alkylation of calfthymus DNA. The potency of NFS to induce unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) in human normal gastric mucosal cells was increased about fivefold compared with FS. When the NFS extract was given to newborn rats by gavage, dys-plasia and adenocaroinoma were induced in the glandular stomach in the 4th and 16th experimental week, respectively. N-nitrosamides were also found in NFS, which may account for the mutagenicity and carcinogenicity of NFS. It is indicated that FS, a traditional daily eaten seasoning, may contribute to the causes of the high gastric cancer mortality for the local residents.展开更多

This study aims to evaluate CSSP from different regions in Indonesia on physiochemical properties, volatile compounds, and sensory evaluation. Evaluation in free amino acid (FAA) and volatile compounds were analyzed using HPLC and GC-MS. CSSP had no significant (p > 0.05) on proximate (except for moisture), salinity, pH, microbial counts and the redness index (a*/b*) compared to control. The identified volatiles can be grouped into hydrocarbon, carbonyl, sulfur, alcohol, nitrogen, fatty acid, and ester compounds. The CSSP A, B, C, D, and E (control) contained 9, 21, 12, 29, and 6 volatile compounds respectively. The total FAA ranged from 44.32 to 67.03 g/100 g, and histidine (his) was found as the most abundant in each CSSP. The rheological properties (yield stress, viscosity, and consistency) of CSSP and control values were significantly, except for CSSP B. The intensities perceived of saltiness, sweetness, and bitterness were greatly varied among CSSP. Although there is no correlation between sweetness and bitterness this is indicated by the negative correlation.展开更多

Shortwave NIR spectroscopy is also a rapid, flexible, and cost-effective method to control product quality in food industry. The method of support vector regression coupled with shortwave NIR spectroscopy was explored for the nondestructive quantitative analysis of the important quality parameters of soy sauce, including amino nitrogen content, total acid content, salt content and color ratio. In this study, the support vector regression(SVR) models based on subtractive spectra and positive spectra were found and compared, the results show that the subtractive spectrum was more excellent than the positive spectrum. Meanwhile, R and RSE were determined, respectively, by means of original spectra and pretreated spectra[standard normal variate (SNV), first-derivative and second-derivative], and the corresponding models were successfully established. The best prediction was achieved by a support vector regression model of the first derivative transformed dataset. In addition, the result obtained by the proposed method was compared with that of Partial Least Squares(PLS), which showed that the generalization performance of the classifier based on SVR was much better than that of PLS. The results demonstrate that shortwave NIR spectroscopy combined with SVR is promising for the quality control of soy sauce.展开更多

Chemical composition of soy sauce cake was analyzed to use as a material of high-value functional ingredients. The results showed that soy sauce cake could be potentially used as functional ingredients rich in proteins, with high antioxidative activitiy, free radical scavenging activity, and antihypertensive activity. Based on their IC50 values, the hydrolysates from soy sauce cake were more significantly effective against superoxide anion radicals and ACE, compared with hydroxyl radicals and DPPH radicals. The present study indicates that a large amount of soy sauce cake can be used as source of proteins with good antioxidative activity, free radical scavenging activity, and antihypertensive activity. The utilization of soy sauce cake may be also to contribute to reduce food processing wastes and to resolve an environmental problem.展开更多

P＆T-GC-MS method determined 12 components, including sulfur-containing constituents （such as dimethyl disulfide）, nitrogen-containing constituents （such as pyrazine derivatives）, aldehydes and ketones. Ethyl acetate extraction fol- lowed by GC-MS method detected 10 components, which were mainly volatile organic acids （such as benzenepropanoic acid） and esters. Neither of the two methods detected alcohols or trimethylamine. This study offers an important reference to determine volatile flavor components of traditional fish sauce through modem analysis methods.展开更多

Beidahuang organic soy bean was selected among different raw materials. Here, the best technique was determined. Firstly, the organic soy beans were soaked for 7 hours under 121℃, steamed for 15 min and mixed with the fried wheat (5:5, w/w). After inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae 3.042 (0.3%, w/w) and cultured for 36 hours, the koji was obtained. When the brine (2:1, w/w) was added, fermentation started. At the end of the fermentation, isoflavone content of organic soy sauce was 0.22 mg· g-1 higher than those in the non- organic soy beans. In addition, compared to the control there were a higher unsaturated fatty acids content, the linoleic acid content in crude fat of 51.61% and γ-linolenic acid content in crude fat of 0.55%.展开更多

文摘Shrimp sauce,one of the traditional salt-fermented food in China,has a unique flavor that is influenced by the resident microflora.The quality of salt-fermented shrimp sauce was evaluated in this work by determining the total volatile basic nitrogen(TVB-N),the amino acid nitrogen(AAN),organic acid,5’-nucleotide and free amino acids(FAA).Moreover,the dynamics of microbial diversity during processing was investigated by using high-throughput sequencing technology.The results showed that the AAN,TVB-N,organic acid,5’-nucleotide and FAA content were in range of 0.93-1.42 g/100 mL,49.91-236.27 mg/100 mL,6.65-20.68 mg/mL,3.51-6.56 mg/mL and 81.27-102.90 mg/mL.Among the microbial diversity found in the shrimp sauce,Tetragenococcus,Flavobacterium,Polaribacter,Haematospirillum and Staphylococcus were the predominant genera.Correlation analysis indicated that the bacteria Tetragenococcus and Staphylococcus were important in the formation of non-volatile compounds.Tetragenococcus positively correlated with a variety of FAAs;Staphylococcus positively correlated with 5’-nucleotides.The analysis indicated that Tetragenococcus and Staphylococcus were the core genera affecting non-volatile components.These findings indicate the dynamics of the bacterial community and non-volatile components inter-relationships during shrimp sauce fermentation and provide a theoretical basis for improving the fermentation process of shrimp sauce.
文摘The mutagenicity and carcinogenicity of fish sauce (FS) sample from Changle County, a high gastric cancer mortality (113.20/105) area, were investigated with the biologic short-term tests and laboratory animal experiment. The results showed that the extract of FS was markedly direct mutagenic toward S. typhimurium TA100, induced high sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) and micronucleus (MN) in V79 cells after nitrosation with sodium nitrite. But the non-nitrosated FS did not. The nitrosated fish sauce (NFS) also induced SOS in E. coli PQ37 and alkylation of calfthymus DNA. The potency of NFS to induce unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) in human normal gastric mucosal cells was increased about fivefold compared with FS. When the NFS extract was given to newborn rats by gavage, dys-plasia and adenocaroinoma were induced in the glandular stomach in the 4th and 16th experimental week, respectively. N-nitrosamides were also found in NFS, which may account for the mutagenicity and carcinogenicity of NFS. It is indicated that FS, a traditional daily eaten seasoning, may contribute to the causes of the high gastric cancer mortality for the local residents.
文摘N-(nitrosomethyl ) urea (NMU ) was characterized in the carcinogenic nitrosated fish sauce (NFS) with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC )- pholohydrolysis-pyrolysis-thermal en -ergy analysis recently. We used HPLC-electronic spray ionization-mass spectrometry and HPLC-diode array detection to confirm NMU in NFS furiher. It was observed that the corresponding chro-matographic fraction of NMU of NFS showed the same mass spectrum (m/z 64, 102, and 145) andultraviolet-absorbance (λ max = 230 nm) as those of authentic NMU. These results confirmed that thecomponent of NFS was NMU
文摘Chili sauce shrimp paste (CSSP) is an exotic traditional sauce prepared using mainly fresh chili and shrimp paste well known as sambal terasi (Indonesia) and sambal belacan (Malaysia and Brunei). This study aims to evaluate CSSP from different regions in Indonesia on physiochemical properties, volatile compounds, and sensory evaluation. Evaluation in free amino acid (FAA) and volatile compounds were analyzed using HPLC and GC-MS. CSSP had no significant (p > 0.05) on proximate (except for moisture), salinity, pH, microbial counts and the redness index (a*/b*) compared to control. The identified volatiles can be grouped into hydrocarbon, carbonyl, sulfur, alcohol, nitrogen, fatty acid, and ester compounds. The CSSP A, B, C, D, and E (control) contained 9, 21, 12, 29, and 6 volatile compounds respectively. The total FAA ranged from 44.32 to 67.03 g/100 g, and histidine (his) was found as the most abundant in each CSSP. The rheological properties (yield stress, viscosity, and consistency) of CSSP and control values were significantly, except for CSSP B. The intensities perceived of saltiness, sweetness, and bitterness were greatly varied among CSSP. Although there is no correlation between sweetness and bitterness this is indicated by the negative correlation.

文摘The modern near-infrared(NIR) spectroscopy analysis is a simple, efficient and nondestructive technique, which has been used in chemical analysis in diverse fields. Shortwave NIR spectroscopy is also a rapid, flexible, and cost-effective method to control product quality in food industry. The method of support vector regression coupled with shortwave NIR spectroscopy was explored for the nondestructive quantitative analysis of the important quality parameters of soy sauce, including amino nitrogen content, total acid content, salt content and color ratio. In this study, the support vector regression(SVR) models based on subtractive spectra and positive spectra were found and compared, the results show that the subtractive spectrum was more excellent than the positive spectrum. Meanwhile, R and RSE were determined, respectively, by means of original spectra and pretreated spectra[standard normal variate (SNV), first-derivative and second-derivative], and the corresponding models were successfully established. The best prediction was achieved by a support vector regression model of the first derivative transformed dataset. In addition, the result obtained by the proposed method was compared with that of Partial Least Squares(PLS), which showed that the generalization performance of the classifier based on SVR was much better than that of PLS. The results demonstrate that shortwave NIR spectroscopy combined with SVR is promising for the quality control of soy sauce.
文摘As the manufacture of soy sauce produces a large quantity of soy sauce cake as one of food processing waste, it is necessary to search for possible ways for their utilization. Chemical composition of soy sauce cake was analyzed to use as a material of high-value functional ingredients. The results showed that soy sauce cake could be potentially used as functional ingredients rich in proteins, with high antioxidative activitiy, free radical scavenging activity, and antihypertensive activity. Based on their IC50 values, the hydrolysates from soy sauce cake were more significantly effective against superoxide anion radicals and ACE, compared with hydroxyl radicals and DPPH radicals. The present study indicates that a large amount of soy sauce cake can be used as source of proteins with good antioxidative activity, free radical scavenging activity, and antihypertensive activity. The utilization of soy sauce cake may be also to contribute to reduce food processing wastes and to resolve an environmental problem.

文摘The stewed pork balls with brown sauce(SPB-BS)in China is well known for its delicacy and preferred by consumers.Maillard reaction(MR)is widespread in SPB-BS due to the use of sugar,meat and sauce in the thermal process.However,there is a lack of research on its risk and flavor by MR.By solid phase extraction combined with HPLC-MS,4 kinds of harmful compounds including acrylamide(AA),heterocyclic aromatic amines(HAAs),4-methylimidazole(4-MEI)and furan were analyzed in SPB-BS and their amounts ranged 0.05–0.50 mg/kg.The quantitative formula was proposed to evaluate the risk value of the SPB-BS,after taking into account the content,acceptable daily intake(ADI)and carcinogenicity of each compound.The risk values were in range of 0.57–37.93,suggesting that the risk caused by MR in SPB-BS was low.By head space-solid phase microextraction combined with GC-MS,57 volatile compounds in SPB-BS were identified with the dominant contribution of alcohols,aldehydes,acids and esters.Based on the structures of these compounds and the composition of SPB-BS,lipid oxidation and MR are inferred to be responsible for the formation of the harmful and volatile compounds.In addition,the added sauces and oil provides the main precursors to form the harmful and volatile compounds in SPB-BS,so it is necessary to point out a balance between them in the further study.

文摘Volatile components of Fuzhou Yulu, a Chinese fish sauce, were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry （GC-MS）, and two pretreatment methods, i.e., purge and trap （P＆T） GC-MS and ethyl acetate extraction followed by GC-MS, were compared. P＆T-GC-MS method determined 12 components, including sulfur-containing constituents （such as dimethyl disulfide）, nitrogen-containing constituents （such as pyrazine derivatives）, aldehydes and ketones. Ethyl acetate extraction fol- lowed by GC-MS method detected 10 components, which were mainly volatile organic acids （such as benzenepropanoic acid） and esters. Neither of the two methods detected alcohols or trimethylamine. This study offers an important reference to determine volatile flavor components of traditional fish sauce through modem analysis methods.
文摘Soy sauce by a high salt liquid-state fermentation process was prepared using the organic soy beans as raw material. Beidahuang organic soy bean was selected among different raw materials. Here, the best technique was determined. Firstly, the organic soy beans were soaked for 7 hours under 121℃, steamed for 15 min and mixed with the fried wheat (5:5, w/w). After inoculated with Aspergillus oryzae 3.042 (0.3%, w/w) and cultured for 36 hours, the koji was obtained. When the brine (2:1, w/w) was added, fermentation started. At the end of the fermentation, isoflavone content of organic soy sauce was 0.22 mg· g-1 higher than those in the non- organic soy beans. In addition, compared to the control there were a higher unsaturated fatty acids content, the linoleic acid content in crude fat of 51.61% and γ-linolenic acid content in crude fat of 0.55%.

文摘Iron deficiency anemia （IDA） is one of the most important nutrition issues in China. Data from the 2002 National Nutrition and Health Survey showed that the average anemia prevalence in China was 20.1% and the prevalence in women of child-bearing age and of children in some poor regions reached more than 50%; it has been estimated that more than 200 million Chinese people are suffering from anemia. Anemia significantly affects physical and mental development in children, decreases productivity in adults, and reduces immune function among the population at large, which leads to a lower health status and limits social development.
