The goal is to differentiate or associate these plum cultivars based on their metabolic profiles. Metabolite profiling was conducted using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) at different postharvest ripening stages. Different unsupervised machine learning algorithms were applied: hierarchical clustering, K-means clustering, Density-Based Spatial Applications with Noise, and principal component analysis (PCA). Results revealed that each cultivar contains a unique combination of 13 amino acids, 4 sugars (contributing to organoleptic characteristics), and numerous phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities (contributing to nutritional value). The levels of these compounds are cultivar-dependent and vary with postharvest stages. The number of clusters of plum cultivars varied with both the clustering algorithm and postharvest stages. However, certain cultivars were consistently grouped regardless of the clustering method, indicating similar characteristics and responses to storage and shelf-life conditions. Similar consistent groupings were observed after cold storage and shelf life. Our findings also showed that K-means clustering is the most effective model for plum cultivar differentiation based on the Silhouette Score and Davies-Bouldin Index. This study enhances our understanding of how metabolites evolve over different postharvest stages and provides a robust framework for differentiating plum cultivars, which can aid in sorting and grading operations. The research offers actionable insights to improve postharvest handling and storage practices, which are critical for maintaining the nutritional quality of plums, an important fruit for human health.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":564,"journal":{"name":"Food Biophysics","volume":"19 4","pages":"955 - 972"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11483-024-09870-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141885582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the literature, monitoring the behavior of larvae in a humid environment has not been established under different conditions of temperature and relative humidity as well as the quality of dried larvae is not always correlated to the conditions of drying. Therefore, this study comprehensively analyses the adsorption–desorption isotherms, drying kinetics, and subsequent quality changes of dried BSFL. Sorption isotherms were assessed at 40, 50, 60, and 70 °C using the gravimetric method, followed by mathematical modelling and determination of thermodynamic variables. Thin-layer drying kinetics were studied in a forced-air oven at the same temperatures, with a subsequent proximate analysis of the dried larvae. Among eight sorption isotherm models evaluated, the Peleg model provided the best fit, revealing type II sorption isotherms with an optimal storage water activity of 0.38. The Page model accurately described the drying kinetics of BSFL across all temperatures. Moisture diffusion coefficients ranged from 6.15 × 10^–11 to 2.63 × 10^–10 m²/s, with an activation energy of 48.66 kJ/mol. The dried larvae displayed impressive protein levels, varying from 39.67 ± 0.28% to 45.29 ± 0.07%, exceeding the minimum requirements set in the global insect production industry. Higher drying temperatures significantly impacted the proximate composition, reducing larvae quality. These findings underscore the potential of BSFL as a valuable protein source and enhance the understanding of their sorption behavior and quality attributes during drying. This study contributes to the optimization of drying conditions for improving the quality of BSFL as a sustainable protein alternative.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":564,"journal":{"name":"Food Biophysics","volume":"19 4","pages":"938 - 954"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11483-024-09867-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141885584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kaempferol and daidzein exhibited competitive inhibition on PPO, while phloretin and luteolin showed mixed-type and non-competitive inhibition, respectively. According to the fluorescence spectra results, these inhibitors were bound to PPO and quenching fluorescence, among which kaempferol showed the highest <i>K</i>_<i>b</i> value and accompanied by the blueshift.

The printing parameters were examined at every stage, starting from the line thickness of the printed product, until the final 3D printed product was obtained. Accordingly, meat printability determined using different ingredient flow speed (3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, and 5), fill factor (1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, 1.5%, and 1.6%) and distance between layers (1.2, 1.4, and 1.6 mm).

Four-layer-infilled 3D-printed samples maintained their initial shape after cooking, regardless of the cooking method.

The physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory attributes of these products were determined during storage for 20 days at a refrigerated temperature (4 ± 1 °C). The addition of the nanoemulsions as preservative retarded color fading (loss of redness) of the meatballs during storage, which was attributed to the natural antioxidant properties of the essential oils. Moreover, the generation of lipid oxidation reaction products (TBARS) during storage was significantly lower (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.05) for the nanoemulsion-treated meatballs than for the control, which was also attributed to the antioxidant properties of the essential oil. The addition of the nanoemulsions to the meatballs also improved their resistance to microbial contamination, reducing the total viable, psychotropic, and yeast and mold counts. Indeed, all these values remained within permissible limits during storage. Furthermore, the incorporation of the nanoemulsions did not adversely impact the textural attributes or water holding properties of the meatballs.
