It is widely perceived that the present conventional meat production system engages freezing as the primary preservation technique, and reports have documented several challenges associated with existing freezing approaches, like the creation of ice crystals during phase transition, which causes deterioration of the tissue membrane, destruction of the cell wall, and textural damage to the foods. Thus, interest in alternative food freezing methodologies, such as pressure shift freezing (PSF), has emerged as a matter of immense approaches and commercial interest owing to its massive benefits. This review delivers the fundamentals of PSF, including the mechanisms of ice crystal formation and microbial inactivation. Further, this review briefly states the applications of PSF in meat processing and preservation by compiling recent works. This provides insight into emerging trends and research requirements. High-pressure freezing creates rapid and homogenous ice crystal development all over the food sample. Moreover, the impact of pressure on the quality aspect of PSF-treated food was discussed. Also, the changes in functional characteristics of PSF-treated foods like colour, texture, and WHC have been highlighted.

The initial lightness value of 64.38 tends to decrease with drying temperature and time; however, the lightness increases as the pumpkin flower shape passes from the petals to the whole shape because of the high moisture content.

The hue angle increased when the airflow goes from 0.3 to 0.9 m/s and when the drying temperature increased from 50 to 55°C; therefore, the pumpkin flower tended to be more yellow when the drying temperature passed from 50 to 55°C. The best properties of pumpkin flowers were obtained during the drying process at a temperature ranging from 50 to 55°C. At this temperature range, moisture content was around 3.11% to 10.2% and water activity was from 0.225 to 0.334, respectively.

The shape of the electrical impedance map of rice leaves under low-temperature stress and its change with the increase of low-temperature stress were studied, and the change trend of electrical impedance map parameters with the increase of low-temperature stress was statistically analyzed.

The left side of the arc starts to disappear with an irreversible injury. Rice tended to die when the arc on the right side of the impedance spectrum began to scatter. Moreover, the change in the electrical impedance spectrum was consistent with that of relative conductivity. When the rice was not dead, the extracellular resistance and relaxation time of leaves decreased with the increase of stress degree, and intracellular resistance increased.

The objective of this study was to investigate the evolution pattern of microbial communities in the Daqu-making environment as the Daqu room application period increased and determine their role in shaping Jiang-flavor Daqu microbial communities. There was a certain level of overlap observed in the dominant microbial genera between the Daqu-making environment of Jiang-flavor Daqu and Jiang-flavor Daqu itself. Consequently, this may explain the close relationship observed in both bacterial life activities. And there was also a strong correlation between the ground and air fungal communities in the Daqu-making house during various usage periods. Furthermore, the composition of microbial communities in the air, the composition of microbial communities in the ground, the bacterial function in the air, and the bacterial function in the ground displayed varying degrees of similarity. However, it is worth noting that the microbial community structure undergoes changes with the gradual increase in the usage time of the fermentation chamber, leading to differences in microbial markers between various fermentation chambers. Most importantly, the quantity of bacteria, molds, and yeasts in the production environment during the initial use stage of the Daqu room was generally advantageous. Additionally, the microbial community in Jiang-flavor Daqu primarily originates from the initial production environment in the Daqu room.
