This study was designed to investigate the impact of dietary lycopene (antioxidant extracted from tomato) supplementation on postmortem antioxidant capacity, drip loss and protein expression profiles of lamb meat during storage. Thirty male Hu lambs were randomly divided into three treatment groups and housed in individual pens and received 0, 200 or 400 mg·kg−1 lycopene in their diet, respectively. All lambs were slaughtered after 3 months of fattening, and the longissimus thoracis (LT) muscle was collected for analyses. The results indicated that drip loss of LT muscle increased with storage days (P < 0.05). After storage for 7 days, significantly lower drip loss of meat was found in fed the lycopene-supplemented diet (P < 0.05). Dietary lycopene supplementation increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes (total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), catalase (CAT)) (P < 0.05) and decreased the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) and carbonyl contents (P < 0.05). During the storage period (days 0, 5 and 7), a number of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs), including oxidases, metabolic enzymes, calcium channels and structural proteins, were identified based on iTRAQ data, with roles predominantly in carbon metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, cardiac muscle contraction and proteasome pathways, and which contribute to decreased drip loss of lamb meat during storage. It can be concluded that dietary lycopene supplementation increased antioxidant capacity after slaughter, and the decreased drip loss during postmortem storage might occur by changing the expression of proteins related to enzyme activity and cellular structure in lamb muscle.

Sudarshanapowder (SP) is one of the most effective Ayurveda powder preparations for paediatric febrile conditions. The objective of the present study was to evaluate thein vitroandin vivoantioxidant potentials of SP. Thein vitroantioxidant effects were evaluated using ABTS radical cation decolourization assay where the TROLOX equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) was determined. Thein vivoantioxidant activity of SP was determined in Wistar rats using the Lipid Peroxidation (LPO) assay in serum. Thein vitroassay was referred to as the TROLOX equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) assay. For thein vivoassay, animals were dosed for 21 consecutive days and blood was drawn to evaluate the MDA level. Thein vitroantioxidant activity of 0.5 μg of SP was equivalent to 14.45 μg of standard TROLOX. The percentage inhibition against the radical formation was50.93±0.53%. The SP showed a statistically significant (p<0.01) decrease in the serum level of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance in the test rats when compared with the control group. These findings suggest that the SP possesses potent antioxidant activity which may be responsible for some of its reported bioactivities.

Semirefined carrageenan (SRC) plasticized with glycerol (G) and incorporated with antioxidants of 0.4% (v/v) of α-tocopherol and Persicaria minor (PM) extract was successfully developed. The objective of this study is to analyze the antioxidant effect of active packaging films from semirefined carrageenan incorporated with α-tocopherol and Persicaria minor on meat patties. Total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of α-tocopherol and PM extract were measured. The effects of α-tocopherol and PM extract incorporated with SRC-based films on meat patties were evaluated using thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) assay, metmyoglobin assay, and pH value for 14 days of storage. The films with 0.4% (v/v) of α-tocopherol and PM extract exhibited a lower lipid oxidation in meat patties compared with that of control (SRC film only, p < 0.05). Also, a brown color development of the meat patties of less than 50% was observed at the end of the 14-day storage. Meanwhile, the pH values for all samples decreased throughout the storage period with the SRC+G+α-tocopherol film showed the highest pH value. Hence, the formulation of SRC film with α-tocopherol or PM extract could be used as an alternative packaging for extending the shelf life of food product with high fat content.

This study investigated the effects of high pressure processing (HPP) on the physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics of different lamb meat cuts. Lamb meat discolouration occurred when HPP was applied at 400 and 600 MPa. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values significantly increased with pressure increase from 200 to 600 MPa for loin cut, and 300 to 600 MPa for shoulder and shank cuts. Saturated fatty acid and polyunsaturated fatty acid content significantly decreased with pressure increase from 200 to 600 MPa for shank and shoulder cuts, and 300 to 600 MPa for loin cut. Free amino acids content significantly increased in shank and loin cuts with pressure increase after 200 MPa, and in shoulder cuts after 400 MPa. In addition, samples treated with HPP at high pressure levels of 400 and 600 MPa were associated with browned, livery and oxidized flavours. The pressure levels applied and type of cuts used are important considerations during HPP processing as they influenced physicochemical and sensory properties of lamb samples.

This study is part of a project aiming to optimize storage conditions for organic chicken meat. Selected indices of skin and wings from organic chicken were evaluated. A total of 24 samples were packaged in MAP-O2 (80% O2/20% CO2), 24 samples in MAP-N2 (70% N2/30% CO2) and 48 samples as a control. The samples were analysed on days 2, 7, 10 and 14 of storage during a 14-day storage period at 2 ± 2 °C. The surface colour of skin (L*a*b*), ammonia content, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances content (TBARS) and antioxidant capacity were assessed. The lightness values (L*) for chicken skin in MAP-O2 were increased on days 7 and 10 of the storage period, and were significantly (P < 0.05) higher than in the samples in MAP-N2 and the control. Significant increases of TBARS were observed in the samples in MAP-O2 from day 7 and these values continued to increase until the end of the storage period. The antioxidant capacities of the samples in MAP-O2 were mostly lower than those of the samples in MAP-N2. Our results indicate that MAP-O2 only had a positive effect on skin colour, whereas MAP-N2 maybe preferable for shelf-life prolongation.

ABSTRACTAcute and chronic infections caused by the opportunistic pathogenPseudomonas aeruginosapose a serious threat to human health worldwide, and its increasing resistance to antibiotics requires alternative treatments that are more effective than available strategies. Clinical studies have clearly demonstrated that cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with chronicP. aeruginosainfections benefit from long-term low-dose azithromycin (AZM) treatment. Immunomodulating activity, the impact of AZM on the expression of quorum-sensing-dependent virulence factors, type three secretion, and motility inP. aeruginosaseem to contribute to the therapeutic response. However, to date, the molecular mechanisms underlying these AZM effects have remained elusive. Our data indicate that the AZM-mediated phenotype is caused by a depletion of the intracellular pools of tRNAs available for protein synthesis. Overexpression of theP. aeruginosapeptidyl-tRNA hydrolase, which recycles the tRNA from peptidyl-tRNA drop-off during translation, counteracted the effects of AZM on stationary-phase cell killing, cytotoxicity, and the production of rhamnolipids and partially restored swarming motility. Intriguingly, the exchange of a rare for a frequent codon inrhlRalso explicitly diminished the AZM-mediated decreased production of rhamnolipids. These results indicate that depletion of the tRNA pools by AZM seems to affect the translation of genes that use rare aminoacyl-tRNA isoacceptors to a great extent and might explain the selective activity of AZM on theP. aeruginosaproteome and possibly also on the protein expression profiles of other bacterial pathogens.

This work is concerned with the oxidative stability and sensory characteristics of traditional fermented sausage Petrovsk? klob?sa, produced with the addition of commercial starter culture (SC). Fatty acids profile, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS) values and sensory properties of odor and taste have been determined at the end of drying and after 2 and 5 months of storage. The sum of saturated, unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids was not significantly different (P>0.05) in SC and control sausage at the end of storage. After 5 months of storage TBARS value of SC sausage amounted to 0.57 mg MDA/kg, and it was significantly lower (P<0.05) compared to control (0.84 mg MDA/kg). Also, sensory properties of odor and taste of SC sausage (3.66) were better in comparison to control (3.55). This study demonstrated that the addition of starter culture can hinder lipid oxidation and contribute to the preservation of desirable sensory characteristics of fermented sausages during a long storage period.

This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of 2,4,4′-trihydroxychalcone as a natural antioxidant on the oxidation of sunflower oil during an 88-day storage period and to compare its strength with the synthetic antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). Seven groups of the sunflower oil samples were prepared: pure oil (control), oil treated with different concentrations (100, 500, and 1000 ppm) of 2,4,4′-trihydroxychalcone, and oil treated with different concentrations (100, 500, and 1000 ppm) of BHT. Specific parameters, namely, the peroxide value (PV), acid value (AV), p-anisidine value (p-AnV), thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value and total oxidation (TOTOX) value were used to assess the extent of the deterioration of the oil by estimating the primary and secondary oxidation products. The results showed that 2,4,4′-trihydroxychalcone effectively decreased the production of the primary and secondary oxidation products of sunflower oil during storage, as indicated by reductions in the PVs, AVs, p-AnVs, TBARS values and TOTOX values of the sunflower oil. When compared to BHT, 2,4,4′-trihydroxychalcone showed either a similar or stronger effect in inhibiting the primary and secondary oxidation products. These findings suggest that, 2,4,4′-trihydroxychalcone is a suitable natural alternative to synthetic antioxidants to improve the oxidative stability of sunflower oil.

ABSTRACT We investigated the impact of chitosan and oregano essential oil (EO) individually or in combination on the quality of eel fillets in vacuum packaging (VP) and stored under refrigeration (4°C). Treatments studied were (i) control eel fillets stored in VP (E), (ii) eel fillets treated with 0.3% (v/w) oregano EO and stored in VP (E-OR), (iii) eel fillets treated with 2.0% (w/v) chitosan and stored in VP (E-CH), and (iv) eel fillets treated with 2.0% (w/v) chitosan and 0.3% (v/w) oregano EO and stored in VP (E-CH-OR). Treatments E-CH-OR and E-CH significantly reduced counts of mesophilic bacteria, Pseudomonas, Shewanella, and yeasts and molds during storage. Use of chitosan alone or in combination with oregano EO led to a significant reduction in concentrations of trimethylamine nitrogen and total volatile basic nitrogen in fillets, which led to lower concentrations of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances compared with the control samples. The eel samples in the E-CH and E-CH-OR groups were sensorially acceptable during the entire refrigerated storage period of 18 days. Presence of chitosan in the E-CH and E-CH-OR fillets did not negatively affect the taste of the fillets. E-CH fillets received a higher taste score than did E-CH-OR fillets probably because of the distinct and “spicy” lemon taste of chitosan, which was well received by the sensory panel. Based on overall sensory data (based on mean sensory scores of odor and taste), the shelf life was 6 days for the control fillets, 10 days for the E-OR fillets, and &gt;18 days for the E-CH and E-CH-OR fillets stored in VP at 4°C. Overall, chitosan-treated eel fillets had lower microbial loads and a longer shelf life compared with the controls. Chitosan-treated eel fillets were preferred over oregano-treated fillets. Chitosan alone or in combination with oregano could be used as a preservative treatment and shelf-life extender for other seafoods.

In this study, the effects were evaluated of butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), ascorbic acid (AA) and α-tocopherol (TO) on the stability of raw mechanically deboned chicken patties stored at –20°C for 6 months. pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), haem iron (mg/kg), metmyoglobin formation (%) and colour (<I>L*, a*, b*, C*</I> and <I>h</I> values) of patties were measured for 0, 2, 4, and 6 months of storage time. pH values were found to be the highest in the initial storage period. TBARS values were observed to range between 0.33 and 2.40 mg malondialdehyde/kg of sample and the <I>L</I>*, <I>a</I>*, and <I>b</I>* values of the patty samples during the storage period were found to range between 38.14 and 49.52, 9.01 and 20.87, and 7.28 and 14.62, respectively. The haem iron and metmyoglobin contents were found to range between 8.39 and 10.87 mg/kg and 19.26% and 45.91%, respectively. As a result, it is suggested that <I>L</I>-ascorbic acid and α-tocopherol can be added into chicken patty samples in view of the storage quality parameters mentioned above.

Resistance of erythrocytes from Brown trout (Salmo trutta m. trutta L.) affected by ulcerative dermal necrosis syndrome In the present work we evaluated the effect of ulcerative dermal necrosis (UDN) syndrome on resistance of erythrocytes to haemolytic agents and lipid peroxidation level in the blood from brown trout (Salmo trutta m. trutta L.). Results showed that lipid peroxidation increased in erythrocytes, as evidenced by high thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) levels. Compared to control group, the resistance of erythrocytes to haemolytic agents was significantly lower in UDN-positive fish. Besides, UDN increased the percent of hemolysated erythrocytes subjected to the hydrochloric acid, urea and hydrogen peroxide. Results showed that UDN led to an oxidative stress in erythrocytes able to induce enhanced lipid peroxidation level, as suggested by TBARS level and decrease of erythrocytes resistance to haemolytic agents.
