This paper studies the changes that occur in free amino acid and biogenic amine contents of raw meats (beef, pork, lamb, chicken and turkey) during storage (2 °C, 10 days). The meat cuts samples were harvested from a retail outlet (without getting information on the animals involved) as the following: Beef leg (four muscles), pork leg (five muscles), lamb leg (seven muscles), turkey leg (four muscles), and chicken breast (one muscle). Meat composition varied according to meat types. In general, pH, microbiology counts, biogenic amine (BA), and free amino acid (FAA) contents were also affected by meat types and storage time (p < 0.05). Chicken and turkey presented the highest levels (p < 0.05) of FAAs. Total free amino acids (TFAA) were higher (p < 0.05) in white meats than in red ones. The behavior pattern, of the total free amino acids precursors (TFAAP) of Bas, was saw-toothed, mainly in chicken and turkey meat during storage, which limits their use as quality indexes. Spermidine and spermine contents were initially different among the meats. Putrescine was the most prevalent BA (p < 0.05) irrespective of species. In general, chicken and turkey contained the highest (p < 0.05) levels of BAs, and TFAAP of BAs. In terms of the biogenic amine index (BAI), the quality of chicken was the worst while beef meat was the only sample whose quality remained acceptable through the study. This BAI seems to be more suitable as a quality index for white meat freshness than for red meat, especially for beef.

In experiments designed to study the effect of the quality of meat meal on growth and efficiency of feed utilization, diets containing meat meals from six different sources were given to 78 male Friesian calves between 5 and 11 weeks of age, 19 calves between 11 and 17 weeks of age, and 168 chickens. The source of meat meal resulted in a significant difference in liveweight gain in the calves; this was related to the calcium and cystine contents of the meat meals. For chickens the effect of meat meal source was dependent on the formulation of the diets. The free amino acid, ammonia, and urea concentrations in the blood plasma of both species are presented.

To explore the effect of commercial Saccharomyces cerevisiae on the quality of traditional “Wanergao” for reasonable consuming guidance, the dominant microbes, physicochemical property, free amino acid content, texture, and sensory properties during fermentation of “Wanergao” were illustrated in this paper. Compared with the samples in the control group, “Wanergao” samples in the two groups that were subjected to S. cerevisiae inoculation had weaker acidity (the pH values dropped from 4.39 ± 0.08 to 4.36 ± 0.07 and 4.36 ± 0.07 within 2 h during fermentation), higher fermenting rate (volume increased from 100 ± 1.31 to 305 ± 4.61 and 316 ± 4.93 mL separately within 3 h), and the dominant lactic acid bacteria and yeast being leukonid and S. cerevisiae. More amylose, ethanol, and free amino acid were detected in “Wanergao” produced with S. cerevisiae inoculation compared with “Wanergao” produced by sourdough. The two kinds of “Wanergao” presented various hardness (2318 ± 112, 2279 ± 103), springiness (0.76 ± 0.03, 0.71 ± 0.03), chewiness (1.43 ± 0.05, 1.41 ± 0.06), and cohesiveness (0.68 ± 0.03, 0.62 ± 0.03) after fermentation. The result of sensory analysis revealed that “Wanergao” in the S. cerevisiae group had higher elasticity, aroma, and restoring force. The experiment demonstrated that “Wanergao” produced by using S. cerevisiae is a kind of fermented rice product with rich fragrance, high amount of nutrients, and strong elasticity.

Concentrations of culture solution in hydroponics were changed for the purpose of improving the quality of herbs. Culture solution containing Ca(NO3)2·4H20:45g. KNO3:36g. MgSO4·7H20:22. 5g. NH4H2PO4:6. 75g, and Fe-EDTA:6. 67g in \batchmode \documentclass[fleqn,10pt,legalpaper]{article} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amsmath} \pagestyle{empty} \begin{document} \(45{\ell}\) \end{document} water was defined as 1 unit solution. Japanese honewort (Cryptotaenia japonica Hassk). soup celery (Apium graveolens L. var. dulce DC.). and parsley grown with 2 unit solution showed higher contents of ascorbic acid(ASA). phenols, free amino acid, and chlorophyll than those grown with 1 unit, but they showed lower yields and shorter shelf lives. Lowering the concentration of solution to 2/3 unit resulted in the increase of yield of peppermint, sage, basil, and perilla (Perilla frutescens Britton) and the decrease of ASA and chlorophyll contents. Shelf lives of berbs with 2/3 unit were longer than those with 1 unit. The smell of herbs tested in this experiment was not affected significantly in sensory test by the change of concentration of solution.

Composition of free amino acid in waxy maize DH lines was analysed and the nutritional quality of waxy maize germplasm resources was evaluated by o-phthaladehyde (OPA) pre-column derivatization reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Results obtained showed that there were at least 14 kinds of free amino acids, DH57 line had the highest (25.185 mg/g), and DH21 line had the lowest (6.203 mg/g) and the average was 12.226 mg/g. The contents of essential amino acids varied from 2.59 to 14.09 mg/g, accounting for 29.55 - 75.64% of the total free amino acids. The quality of free amino acids was evaluated by comprehensive indices with principal component analysis and the first top three DH lines were DH57, DH59 and DH55. The contents of free amino acids in 60 waxy maize DH lines had obvious genetic diversity. As to the free amino acid content, the amino acids quality of DH57, DH59 and DH55 were the best, while DH21 was the worst. Results provide a theoretical guidance for the cultivation of new varieties of waxy maize with good quality.
