The material of the study comprised traditional Polish pork ham, one of the most frequently purchased and consumed meat products in Poland. The analysed ham was smoked with the traditional method using beech chips and pieces. Smoking time was four hours. During laboratory research the basic chemical composition of the product was examined. Using the HPLC method, the level of 15 selected Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). The obtained results show that the level of selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the examined material depended on atmospheric pressure and relative air humidity. Atmospheric pressure significantly influenced the content of benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(a)anthracene and indeno(c,d)pyrene. Relative humidity impacted the absorption level of 5-methylchrysene, benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(g,h,i)perylene, benzo(j)fluoranthene and indeno(c,d)pyrene. An influence of air temperature during the smoking process on PAHs content in the product was not observed. The results indicate that traditional smoking should be conducted under conditions of high relative humidity – ideally above 75%, and high atmospheric pressure – above 1000 hPa.","PeriodicalId":377090,"journal":{"name":"Acta Universitatis Cibiniensis.

EK11 had the capability of dynamic acidification of pasteurized vegetable beverages. The lowest values of pH were noted in juices after 48 h of fermentation with the probiotic L. plantarum 299v (pH=3.72±0.01 in beet juice and pH=3.43±.0.01 in tomato juice). The fermentation increased the lycopene content in tomato juices from 27.90±0.31µg mL−1 (after 24-h fermentation by strain EK11) to 116.86 ±0.19 µg mL−1 (final products obtained using strain 299v after 7-day cold storage). The process contributed to changes in the betanin and vulgaxanthin-I concentration in beetroot beverages. All fermented products exhibited antioxidative activity, i.e. 50% inhibition of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl free radicals. Moreover, three genes involved in the biosynthesis of bacteriocins were detected in the novel strain EK11, which exhibits functional and technological potential for the production of fermented foods.","PeriodicalId":377090,"journal":{"name":"Acta Universitatis Cibiniensis.

Four finishing feeding models for bulls based on different proportions of concentrates, maise silage, grass silage and hay were evaluated. Muscles chemical composition was evaluated in m. infraspinatus (ISB), m. longissimus thoracis (LTC) and m. longissimus lumborum (LLS). The chemical composition of meat was influenced by muscle type. ISB was characterised by higher moisture, collagen content, lower protein and ash content, and net energy concentration than LTC and LLS. The differences between diets in dry matter and fat content in each of the muscle groups studied were stated. Furthermore, a difference in the collagen content in LLS and protein content in ISB was noted. High correlations (P ≤ 0.05) were found between the concentrate content in the finishing diet and protein content (r = 0.59) in ISB, and dry matter both in LLS (r = 0.69) and LTC (r = 0.58).

Orange peel oleoresin obtained a higher amount of polyphenols as catechol acid equivalent (9.09 meq/g), as compared to pea pod oleoresin or pomegranate peel (8.80 and 8.55, respectively), although pomegranate peel presented the higher TEAC (1.67, twice than the other samples). Oleogels elaborated with celluloses were presented better oxidative stability (oxidative rancidity and peroxide index) as compared to samples elaborated with candelilla wax, since waxes minor constituents employed as oleogelators could promote prooxidant activity. Samples with pomegranate oleoresin presented enhanced oxidative stability. Candelilla wax has a more marked effect on the oleogels thermal properties of due to their influence on fatty acids crystallization, because in celluloses oleogels the mechanism of gelation does not imply the formation of a highly ordered secondary structure. This finding opens the possibility to, on one hand, use oleoresins to enhance the oxidative stability of oleogels; and on the other hand, to select the oleogelator, waxes, or celluloses, based on thermal properties and other aspects, depending on the further application of oleogel thinking in oleogel thermoreversible capacity.","PeriodicalId":377090,"journal":{"name":"Acta Universitatis Cibiniensis.

The present study evaluated the bioactive, antioxidant, antidiabetic and inhibition of lipid peroxidation properties of cooked and uncooked Irish potatoes. The samples were subjected to total phenolic (TPC), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), total flavonoids (TFC), ascorbic acid (AsA) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity analyses using spectrophotometric method. Also Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation, α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition were assayed. The results revealed that there is no significant (p < 0.05) difference in TPC and TAC of the potatoes samples but there was a significant (p < 0.05) enhancement in TFC and reduction in AsA of the cooked potatoes. There is also dose-dependent inhibition in DPPH and α-glucosidase and α-amylase enzymes. The IC50 revealed that cooked sample has significant higher (p < 0.05) inhibition in the enzymes assay. The lipid peroxidation was also reduced upon incubation with Irish potato samples but higher inhibition was exhibited by the cooked potato. In conclusion, this study has shown that Irish potato can be a good functional food in the management of diseases.","PeriodicalId":377090,"journal":{"name":"Acta Universitatis Cibiniensis.

Gorzelany","doi":"10.2478/aucft-2021-0005","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2478/aucft-2021-0005","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract The study investigates rheological properties of dough and baking process made from flour obtained by milling grains from ancient varieties of wheat (einkorn, emmer and spelt), compared to common wheat flour dough (Arkadia variety). The findings show that einkorn flour dough and emmer flour dough present poor tolerance to mechanical processing and prolonged fermentation. These types of dough should be mixed through relatively short, and fermentation time should not exceed 80 minutes for einkorn dough and 45 minutes in the case of emmer dough. In the case of spelt flour dough, the optimum duration of mechanical processing and fermentation amounted to 10 minutes and 60 minutes, respectively. In terms of technological and baking parameters, spelt flour was most similar to the flour obtained by milling conventional wheat, and the superiority of the former was in fact identified in the case of selected factors. A one-stage method was used in the baking process and the bread was then subjected to organoleptic and physicochemical assessments and to texture profile analysis (TPA). Measurements were also performed to determine the indicators reflecting the quality of the baking processes, including dough yield, baking loss and bread yield. The physical parameters of the bread produced were significantly related to the wheat variety. The loaves made from einkorn and spelt flour were of good quality, comparable to the bread made from the conventional wheat, while their baking quality indicators were satisfying. Bread dough made from emmer flour did not meet the required parameters mainly related to the organoleptic assessment and selected physical properties of the bread crumb. However, the one-stage production method should not be applied to doughs made from emmer flour. Given the specific characteristics of the breads produced from the ancient wheat varieties, including their pleasant taste and aroma, as well as attractive colour in the case of einkorn bread, these baked products may be an interesting addition to the assortment of breads on offer from bakeries, restaurants and agritourist farms.","PeriodicalId":377090,"journal":{"name":"Acta Universitatis Cibiniensis.

Colour of the flour was more affected by thermal processing in comparison to non-thermal processing. Nutritional composition of alfalfa flour was significantly affected by germination as compared to other methods and germinated flour showed an increase in the protein content. All the processing treatments resulted in improving the pasting properties except for germination. Particularly, marked improvement in the pasting properties was observed by wet heat processing and soaking. ATR-FTIR exhibited change in the secondary structure of the protein as a result of processing and showed the dominance of intermolecular β-sheets in extrusion, germination and microwave treated flour and formation of anti-parallel β-sheets after dry heat processing.
