Abstract
To improve the efficiency of biological preservatives, a novel slow-release system was constructed. The oil-in-water (O/W) nanoemulsions were prepared with tea tree essential oil (TTO) and its main components, 1,8-cineole (CN) and terpinen-4-oil (T4O) as core materials, and with tea saponin as surfactant. The preservation properties of the pad containing nanoemulsion slow-release system on Lateolabrax japonicus fillets were measured. The results showed that the nanoemulsion had good stability and can delay the release of essential oil, and the cumulative release percentage of TTO was as high as 81 % at 72 h. The establishment of nanoemulsions slow-release system effectively improved the preservation properties of the pad, and TTO nanoemulsion pad (TTO-NE-P) had the optimal preservation properties due to the synergistic effect of preservative ingredients and the sustained release system of the nanoemulsion. This study can provide technical support for the combined application of biological preservative agent and aquatic product pads.
期刊介绍:
The FSB journal covers food chemistry and analysis for compositional and physiological activity changes, food hygiene and toxicology, food microbiology and biotechnology, and food engineering involved in during and after food processing through physical, chemical, and biological ways. Consumer perception and sensory evaluation on processed foods are accepted only when they are relevant to the laboratory research work. As a general rule, manuscripts dealing with analysis and efficacy of extracts from natural resources prior to the processing or without any related food processing may not be considered within the scope of the journal. The FSB journal does not deal with only local interest and a lack of significant scientific merit. The main scope of our journal is seeking for human health and wellness through constructive works and new findings in food science and biotechnology field.
