Summary: The deacetylation degree of konjac glucomannan (KGM) has significant effects on the properties of silver carp surimi gel. With increasing deacetylation degree, viscosity, solubility, water absorption capability, gel strength, water distribution, and microstructure of the surimi gel are all affected. A deacetylation degree of 50.72% is identified as the most suitable for surimi products due to the observed changes in these properties.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the effect of ultrasonically emulsified lard combined with microbial transglutaminase (MTGase) on the physicochemical characteristics of surimi gel from silver carp. Surimi gel with ultrasonically emulsified lard had higher whiteness, gel strength, and water-holding capacity. The addition of lard or ultrasonically emulsified lard to the surimi decreased storage modulus and loss modulus.

Summary: The effects of ethanolic extracts of pomegranate peel (PPE) on the gelling and textural characteristics of silver carp surimi gel were investigated. The results showed that adding 0.45% of PPE can improve the gel strength and texture properties of the surimi gel, and it also increased the number of hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. The FT-IR analysis and SEM images supported these findings.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of temperature on the electrical properties of rinsed and unrinsed carp surimi. The results showed that the electrical parameters of surimi decreased as the temperature increased. Prolonged heating in the temperature range of 60-70 degrees led to gel degradation in surimi. Further research is needed to understand the relationship between the microstructure of surimi gel and the electrical parameters.

Summary: The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of anthocyanins and microbial transglutaminase on the physicochemical properties of surimi gels from silver carp. The addition of these compounds significantly increased gel strength and water holding capacity, with MTGase having a stronger effect. The combination of AC and MTGase showed the highest improvement in gel strength, storage modulus, and WHC. The covalent and non-covalent bonds were mainly responsible for the improvements caused by AC, while MTGase primarily acted through covalent bonds. SDS-PAGE confirmed the results and demonstrated the potential enhancement in quality of surimi-based products.

Summary: The study found that cathepsin L plays a crucial role in protein degradation in olive flounder surimi gel, and the quality of the gel can be enhanced by inhibiting its activity. Adding a protease inhibitor to the surimi effectively inhibited cathepsin L-induced autolysis, with the degree of inhibition increasing with higher inhibitor concentrations. Moreover, the deformation and hardness of the gel were improved with higher concentrations of the inhibitor.

Summary: This study investigates the variations in lipid digestion profiles among individuals of different ages using in vitro digestion models. The findings suggest that adults have a more comprehensive lipid digestion compared to infants, and infants tend to release shorter chain length and more saturated free fatty acids during digestion. Additionally, the particle sizes in the stomach of the elderly were consistently larger. This study enhances our understanding of how lipids with different degrees of unsaturation undergo digestion in diverse age groups.

Summary: This study investigated the acidification of aroma-enhanced black tea during storage. Analysis of non-volatile substances and organic acids using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS and HPLC revealed a decrease in soluble sugars and amino acids, while an increase in organic acids such as oxalic acid, malic acid, and quinic acid. In vitro experiments further demonstrated that the acidification is a result of the decomposition of sugars and amino acids by heating, as well as the oxidation of aromatic aldehydes. Additionally, the study showed that the taste composition of tea infusion is altered, with reduced amino acids, catechins, soluble sugars, and flavonoids. This research provides a theoretical basis for improving the quality of black tea.
