Abstract
The effects of ultrasound (US) pretreatment, heat pump drying temperature and drying time on the water status and viscoelastic properties as well as the correlation between them of scallop adductors were investigated. As drying progressed, the transverse relaxation time (T2) of tightly and loosely bound water maintained a relatively stable state, while the T2 of free and immobilized water shifted leftwards with US pretreatment and increasing drying temperature. The creep compliance was increased, but the relaxation modulus decreased with US pretreatment and an increase in drying temperature. However, the creep compliance exhibited a decreasing trend, but the relaxation modulus showed an increase tendency as drying proceeded, viz., decreasing moisture content. Burger’s model and the three-element generalized Maxwell model achieved the best fit to describe the creep behavior and stress relaxation, respectively. The storage modulus (G′) and loss modulus (G″) were decreased with US pretreatment, increasing the drying temperature and moisture content. The T2 of all water components and peak area fraction of immobilized water were positively correlated with the creep compliance but significantly negatively correlated with the stress relaxation modulus, G′ and G″. Low-field nuclear magnetic resonance provided reliable viscoelastic properties of scallop adductors by monitoring the water status during the drying process, which can be used to accurately control the final product quality.
期刊介绍:
Food and Bioprocess Technology provides an effective and timely platform for cutting-edge high quality original papers in the engineering and science of all types of food processing technologies, from the original food supply source to the consumer’s dinner table. It aims to be a leading international journal for the multidisciplinary agri-food research community.
The journal focuses especially on experimental or theoretical research findings that have the potential for helping the agri-food industry to improve process efficiency, enhance product quality and, extend shelf-life of fresh and processed agri-food products. The editors present critical reviews on new perspectives to established processes, innovative and emerging technologies, and trends and future research in food and bioproducts processing. The journal also publishes short communications for rapidly disseminating preliminary results, letters to the Editor on recent developments and controversy, and book reviews.
