Storage Temperatures

Asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) spears (cv. UC 157) trimmed to 20 cm were cooled 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 hours after harvest and evaluated for resistance to shear at 5 and 10 cm above the cut end immediately after cooling and during storage at 0.5, 2.5, and 5C. Resistance to shear increased during cooling delays and with time in storage. Initial cooling delays and simulated marketing conditions (transfer to 15C for 1 day) were the principal causes of increased resistance to shear. A 4-hour cooling delay resulted in an average 40% increase in resistance to shear. Transfer to 15C for 1 day resulted in a greater increase in shear force in the rapidly cooled than in the delayed-cooled spears. Increases in resistance to shear during storage varied from 0% to 50% and depended on the storage temperature, time, and the initial cooling delay. Spears trimmed to a green base showed less increase in shear force after storage than did spears trimmed to a white base. The visual quality of asparagus stored for 14 days was similar (excellent) among spears from different storage temperatures and between green- and white-base spears. Storage quality after 24 days had decreased more in spears stored at 5C than at 2.5 or 0.5C, and more in the green-base than the white-base spears.

The effects of forage additives, applied to bales wrapped at either 2 or 10 h post-baling, on preservation and quality of whole barley crop ensiled as large bales were investigated. Forage was cut at the early milk stage and allowed to wilt over a 24-h period to 47% DM. Bales were allocated on the basis of baling sequence to one of three additives treatments: without inoculant (Control); treated with a microbial inoculant, Lactobacillus plantarum and Pediococcus cerevisiae (LpPc); or treated with Lactobacillus plantarum and Pediococcus cerevisiae, plus cellulase and pectinase (LpPcE). An equal number of bales (n = 18) representing each treatment group were wrapped at either 2 or 10 h post-baling. All bales were core sampled at baling and on days 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 13, 17, 29, 64, 92, 252 and 308 post-baling. Bales were weighed prior to being wrapped and when removed from storage to measure DM and nutrient losses during storage. During wrapping, a thermocouple wire was inserted in each bale to monitor bale temperature. Time of wrapping did not affect nutrient composition or ensiling characteristics of silage. Application of forage additives had no effect on nutrient profile or recovery, however, silage treated with LpPc inoculant had lower (P < 0.05) ammonia N compared with untreated or treated with LpPcE silage. Storage temperature of bales representing all treatments did not exceed 28 °C but were approximately 2 to 3 °C higher in the Control than treated silage for the first 3 d post-ensiling. Silage treated with forage additives had a lower (P < 0.05) pH and an increase (P < 0.05) in concentrations of lactic and total acids. Ethanol and 2,3 butanediol levels were higher (P < 0.05) in untreated silage compared with inoculated silage. Silage treated with forage additives were more stable and took 5, 9 and 12 d to heat after exposure to air for Control, LpPc and LpPcE silage, respectively. Results from this study indicated that treatment with microbial inoculants was beneficial in preserving whole crop barley ensiled as large bales. Addition of enzymes to microbial inoculant did not have further beneficial effect on quality of large bale silage.

The priority in improving the existing methods of processing fish is salting with the use of food additives with different functional orientations. The aim of the study was the development of preserves with the introduction of lactate-containing additives and using sonochemical technologies; examination of the quality of the products obtained according to organoleptic and microbiological safety indicators. The article proposes a resource-saving technology for the production of fish products with prolonged shelf life due to the use of a complex food additive consisting of lactic, acetic, propionic acids and their salts in different proportions with subsequent ultrasonic treatment using the ultrasonic generator of the Wave series model UZTA-0 2/22-OM. There was established the optimal mode of using the ultrasonic processing power of 75 W / m2 in the manufacture of fish preserves from herring. Organoleptic and microbiological quality indicators were studied during storage of preserved products with the addition of additives and ultrasonic treatment compared to the control. Organoleptic assessment was carried out on a five-point scale, microbiological indicators were studied by standard methods. The Dilactin Forte Plus dietary supplement in the composition of preserves in the amount of 3% and in combination with the use of sonochemical technologies makes it possible to obtain a safe high-quality fish product. Manufactured preserves at a storage temperature of 0 ± 2 ° C can maintain their high quality for 5 months.

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of storage temperature and time on physicochemical parameters of starch syrups recommended for the winter feeding of bee colonies. The studies included commercially available three starch syrups and an inverted saccharose syrup that were stored at different temperatures: ca. 20 °C, 10–14 °C, and ca. 4 °C. Physicochemical parameters of fresh syrups (immediately after purchase) and syrups after 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, and 24 months of storage at the abovementioned temperatures were measured. It was observed that the rate of unfavorable changes in chemical composition of starch syrups and the inverted saccharose syrup, mainly the changes in the 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) content, depended on the type of a syrup and storage conditions (temperature, time). Properties of tested starch syrups intended for winter feeding of bees stored at ca. 20 °C maintained unchanged for up to 6 months, whereas the same syrups stored at lower temperatures (10–14 °C) maintained unchanged physicochemical parameters for about 12 months. In higher temperatures, the HMF content increased. To date, the influence of this compound on bees has not been thoroughly investigated.

Drying Rates

Desiccation tolerance in seeds depends on the species, development stage and drying conditions, especially the water removal rate. Coffea seeds are considered of intermediate performance, because they tolerate relative dehydration compared to orthodox seeds and are sensitive to low temperatures. The objective of this study was to verify the effect of different drying rates on the viability and storability of Coffea canephora seeds. A complete randomized experimental design was used, in a factorial 3 x 5 x 2 design, with three drying rates (fast, intermediate and slow), five final mean water contents after drying (51, 42, 33, 22 and 15 %) and two storage temperatures (10 and 20°C). The germination and seed vigor assessments, using radicle protrusion, cotyledon leaf opening, seedling emergence and emergence speed index, were performed shortly after drying and after two and four months storage. It was observed that with reduction in the water content there was reduction in the germination values and seed vigor, for all the drying rates. The greatest reductions in physiological quality occurred when the seeds were dried quickly and the best results were obtained at the intermediate drying rate. There was an effect of drying rate and storage temperature on the physiological quality of the seeds, and lower germination and vigor values were observed in seeds with lower water content stored at 20°C. C. canephora seeds were tolerant to desiccation down to 15 % water content and can be stored for four months at 10°C. A temperature of 20ºC can be used to store C. canephora seeds, as long as the water content is not reduced to values below 22 % water content.

Abstract Objective Silica gel beads have promise as a non-toxic, cost-effective, portable method for storing environmental DNA (eDNA) immobilized on filter membranes. Consequently, many ecological surveys are turning to silica bead filter desiccation rather than ethanol preservation. However, no systematic evaluation of silica bead storage conditions or duration past 1 week has been published. The present study evaluates the quality of filter-immobilized eDNA desiccated with silica gel under different storage conditions for over a year using targeted quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)-based assays. Results While the detection of relatively abundant eDNA target was stable over 15 months from either ethanol- or silica gel-preserved filters at − 20 and 4 °C, silica gel out-performed ethanol preservation at 23 °C by preventing a progressive decrease in eDNA sample quality. Silica gel filter desiccation preserved low abundance eDNA equally well up to 1 month regardless of storage temperature (18, 4, or − 20 °C). However only storage at − 20 °C prevented a noticeable decrease in detectability at 5 and 12 months. The results indicate that brief storage of eDNA filters with silica gel beads up to 1 month can be successfully accomplished at a range of temperatures. However, longer-term storage should be at − 20 °C to maximize sample integrity.

The study results of the influence of parameters of the process of chemical-thermal treatment in selenium vapor during the preparation of solid lubricating coatings from molybdenum diselenide on specimens of structural steels with a plasma Mo-coating are presented. An empirical mathematical model of the temperature-time parameters of the Mo selenization process is proposed, which makes possible to control the quality of the obtained coatings depending on requirements for their tribotechnical properties. An assessment of their tribotechnical characteristics in air and in vacuum in the temperature range 20—600 °С has been carried out.
