摘要

为探索高压静电场(high voltage electrostatic field, HVEF)处理后,干腌期间牛肉质构及肌原纤维蛋白(myofibrillar protein, MP)特性的变化,该研究考察了适度HVEF(8 kV, 15 h, 4 ℃)处理后,牛肉在腌制1、3、5、7 d时的NaCl含量、质构特性、组织蛋白酶B和L活性、MP降解、氧化与结构特性。结果表明:与对照组相比,HVEF处理后,牛肉NaCl含量显著提升;从腌制第3天起,牛肉硬度和咀嚼性显著下降;组织蛋白酶B、L活性及肌原纤维小片化指数显著升高;α-螺旋占比显著下降,无规卷曲占比显著上升;内源荧光强度下降;羰基含量与表面疏水性显著增加,总巯基含量显著下降。综上,HVEF处理提高了干腌期间牛肉的腌制速度及组织蛋白酶活性;促进了MP降解、氧化;降低了MP结构稳定性,使得肉样质构从腌制第3天起得到改善。该研究为HVEF在肉制品非热加工中的应用提供了理论依据。

Abstract

To explore the changes in texture and myofibrillar protein (MP) characteristics of beef during dry curing after treatment with a high voltage electrostatic field (HVEF), this study examined the NaCl content, texture, activities of cathepsin B and L, degradation, oxidation, and structure of myofibrillar protein (MP) in beef treated with a moderate high voltage electric field (HVEF, 8 kV, 15 h, 4 ℃) during dry curing for 1, 3, 5, and 7 days.Results indicated that, compared to the control group, the NaCl content in the beef significantly increased following HVEF treatment.Notably, from the third day of curing, significant reductions in hardness and chewiness were observed.The activities of cathepsins B and L, along with the fragment index of myofibrillar proteins, exhibited significant increases.Additionally, a significant decrease in the proportion of α-helices and a corresponding increase in the proportion of random coils were noted.Furthermore, the intensity of endogenous fluorescence decreased, while significant increases in carbonyl content and surface hydrophobicity were recorded, along with a notable decrease in total sulfhydryl content.In conclusion, HVEF treatment enhanced curing speed and the enzyme activity of cathepsins during the dry curing of beef, promoted the degradation and oxidation of MP, and diminished the structural stability of MP, leading to improved beef texture from the third day of curing.This study provides a theoretical foundation for the application of HVEF in the non-thermal processing of meat products.
