Determining the optimal infrared wavelength reduces energy costs and maintains food quality after drying. This review paper summarizes the various wavelengths utilized in infrared drying and explores combined techniques to enhance drying efficiency, reduce drying time, save energy, and maintain food quality. Among infrared drying, far-infrared radiation is the most commonly used for effectively removing moisture and preserving bioactive compounds. However, other infrared wavelengths also have significant applications. For example, near-infrared radiation is prevalent to achieve the Maillard reaction in carbohydrate-rich foods. The combination of mid-infrared (MIR) and far-infrared (FIR) wavelengths, ranging from 2 to 50 μm, covers a broad spectrum of food components, making it a widely used range for infrared drying. In terms of infrared combined techniques, utilizing MIR or FIR in infrared-assisted freeze drying can yield value-added fruit snacks with enhanced crispness. Mid-infrared radiation is sometimes preferred after freeze drying to prevent structural collapse in food products, while near-infrared wavelength (NIR) is favored for expediting drying time, especially for berries. In contrast, infrared-assisted hot air is suitable for seafood, with NIR rarely used due to its potential to deteriorate food quality. This comprehensive review provides researchers with guidance on properly selecting wavelengths for infrared drying and combined techniques.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":319,"journal":{"name":"Food Control","volume":"169 ","pages":"Article 110991"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142662470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The presence of toxic aldehydes in food is a significant concern for consumers as well as industries in terms of food safety. Based on this, we conducted a search in the WoS database using “frying” and “aldehydes” as topic, combined bibliometric methods to analyze the published relevant literature, summarize the current research progress, and evaluate future development trends. This review focuses on the latest advancements in understanding aldehydes formation, harmful effects, analysis techniques, occurrence in food, and reduction approaches. Acrolein, 2,4-decadienal and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) are primarily formed through linoleic acid oxidation, while linolenic acid contributes to the production of 4-hydroxy-2-hexenal (HHE). Commonly used methods for determining aldehydes include HPLC and GC-MS. However, to meet the demand for rapid and convenient analysis, techniques such as FTIR, NMR, and electrochemical methods have gained advantages. These methods offer the potential for further optimization of experimental conditions to develop precise quantitative methods suitable for “in-situ” determination. To reduce the production of aldehydes, the application of antioxidants has been considered as an effective method and future research should focus on identifying effectively antioxidant, particularly natural antioxidants, to reduce aldehyde formation during food processing. These efforts will contribute to the production of safer and higher-quality food products.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":319,"journal":{"name":"Food Control","volume":"169 ","pages":"Article 110993"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142662472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The composite coatings were created by blending BS and CH with CLEO in different concentrations. The coatings underwent a comprehensive evaluation, including physico-chemical, functional, thermal analyses, and microstructural characterization. Cytotoxicity tests on human cell lines (Caco-2) confirmed that the coatings were non-toxic. Among the various formulations, the coating with 2.0% CLEO (referred to as F5) exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity, maximum antioxidant properties, and the lowest water solubility. Following this, the coatings were applied to green grapes (<em>Vitis vinifera</em>) via dip coating technique. The performance of coatings was assessed by storing the grapes under room temperature (25 ± 1 °C) and refrigeration conditions (4 ± 1 °C). From visual appearance and physio-chemical tests, it was concluded that the F5 coating was potentially active in extending the shelf life of grapes to 12 days at room temperature and to 20 days under refrigeration storage.

No significant differences in mercury concentrations were observed between the ventricle tissue and biopsied tissue from tuna bleeding site (TTBS), which can be harvested without reducing the market value of farmed tuna (Hg concentration of the ventricle tissue and the TTBS, median: 0.41 and 0.40 mg/kg, respectively). In addition, the relationship between mercury concentrations in the ventricle tissue and in the edible portions of three tuna fish was examined. The findings showed that total mercury level in the edible tissues varied, with the ratio of the mercury level in edible tissues to that in the ventricle ranging from 0.39 to 1.08. A positive correlation was observed between the average total mercury levels in edible tissues and ventricle tissue. These results suggest that determining the total mercury level in the ventricle, which is typically discarded at processing sites, may serve as a convenient proxy for quality control and monitoring purposes using the LAEP-OES method.
