    As a kind of probiotics widely used in the food industry, lactic acid bacteria are affected by various environmental stresses in the fermentation process and digestive tract. The production of yogurt, kimchi, high-acid fruit and vegetable juices and other foods all put forward requirements for the stress resistance of the bacteria. Some microorganisms can form biofilms to improve their environmental tolerance ability. According to the previous reports, the quorum sensing systems is associated with the formation of bacterial biofilms, and the regulation of quorum sensing systems may be potential regulatory targets for improving the fermentation performance of lactic acid bacteria. Previously, we have obtained a citric acid tolerant strain - Lactobacillus plantarum LP-D840, which was acclimated from its parent strain- L. plantarum D by gradually increasing citric acid concentration in the medium. The original strain and the acclimated strain are suitable samples for understanding the correlation between quorum sensing and strain tolerance, due to their highly similar gene background. In this study, the difference regarding the physiological and metabolic properties and the AI-2/LuxS system between the parent and acclimated strains were compared. The effects of exogenous quorum sensing interferents, including (S)-4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentanedione (DPD) and S-adenosylmethionine(SAM), on the growth and metabolism of the strain were analyzed. The production of signal molecule AI-2 was detected by the bioluminescence method, the changes of gene transcription level were determined by reverse transcription real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and metabolites were detected by HPLC. The results showed that the biofilm formation ability of acclimated strain - L. plantarum D-840 was 485% higher than that of parent strain - L. plantarum D, and the cell density of L. plantarum D-840 was 5.4 times higher than that of L. plantarum D under the stress of citric acid. The acclimated strain L. plantarum D-840 showed distinct capability of biofilm formation, whereas the original L. plantarum D did not show biofilm synthesis. By controlling the agitating condition, the planktonic and biofilm cells of L. plantarum D-840 were obtained separately. Compared with planktonic cells, the biofilm cells of L. plantarum D-840 had higher tolerance to citric acid, malic acid, and bile salts. The result showed that the higher stress tolerance to citric acid of L. plantarum D-840 was closely associated with its biofilm formation. The two strains entered the logarithmic growth phase at about 4 h, and the signal molecule AI-2 accumulated rapidly during 4-8 h. The AI-2 production of L. plantarum D-840 and L. plantarum D decreased slightly after reaching the highest value at 8 h and 16 h, respectively. During the fermentation process, the AI-2 synthesis ability of the two strains (AI-2/OD) showed a decreasing trend initially and then stabilized. Under citric acid stress, the AI-2 produced by L. plantarum D-840 and L. plantarum D showed a positive correlation with the concentration of citric acid, while the AI-2 activity of per unit absorbance produced by L. plantarum D-840 was significantly lower than L. plantarum D. RT-qPCR results showed that the expression of luxS gene was down-regulated in two strains under citric acid stress, while the expression of pfs gene was up-regulated. At citric acid, the expression of luxS gene in L. plantarum D and L. plantarum D-840 decreased by 34.5% and 28.8% (P<0.05), respectively, while the pfs gene increased by 71.4% and 49.3% (P<0.05), respectively. Therefore, compared with luxS gene, pfs gene has a more significant regulatory effect on the synthesis of AI-2, and has a closer correlation with the citric acid tolerance of the strains in this study. The addition of AI-2 precursor DPD had no significant effect on the growth curves of the two strains, while it could affect the production of lactate and phenyllactate of L. plantarum D-840. When the concentration of DPD was greater than 0.5 μmol/L, the synthesis of lactic acid of L. plantarum D-840 was significantly inhibited. While the production of phenyllactic acid in L. plantarum D-840 was significantly increased by 27.1% at the addition of 0.1 μmol/L DPD. SAM inhibited the growth of the two strains, but promoted the synthesis of phenyllactic acid. When the concentration of SAM was 1 g/L, the production of phenyllactic acid in L. plantarum D and L. plantarum D-840 increased by 12.2% and 25.5%, respectively. The result indicated that the regulation effect of SAM on the physiological metabolism of the strain was better than that of DPD. This study indicated that the AI-2/LuxS system has a significant correlation with the stress resistance and metabolic properties of Lactobacillus plantarum. Via the addition of AI-2 precursors, the AI-2/LuxS system can be up-regulated, and the accumulation of relevant metabolites can be enhanced. This information provided a novel approach for improving the fermentation performance of Lactobacillus plantarum, and the results might be expanded to other lactic acid bacteria.

    Isomaltulose is a natural isomer of sucrose. It is widely used as a functional sweetener with promising properties, including slower digestion, prolonged energy release, lower insulin reaction, and less cariogenicity. The isomaltulose production by sucrose isomerase (SIase) isomerization catalyzing sucrose to produce isomaltulose is the most common method at present. SIase was immobilized on silica nanoparticle (SNP) cross-linked with glutaraldehyde (GA) by adsorption and adsorption-crosslinking method, and two immobilized enzyme, S-CLEAs and S-CLEAs-GA were obtained. The enzyme activity recovery of S-CLEAs reached up to 51.2% under the optimal condition of immobilization achieved with 6.25 mg/mL of SNP, 8.6 U/mL of SIase and 5 h of adsorption time. Then adding 0.08% GA and cross-linking 2 h, While the maximum activity recovery of S-CLEAs-GA was 44.9% when the GA concentration was 0.08% and cross-linking time was 2 h. Compared with free SIase, immobilized enzymes were maintained a relatively high enzyme activity in wide temperature and pH ranges. In addition, after 15 repeated uses, S-CLEAs-GA and S-CLEAs still had 55.1% and 77.9% of initial enzyme activity respectively. The above research results showed that immobilized SIase had excellent thermal, pH and operational stabilities, especially S-CLEAs-GA, thus had a good prospect of industrial application。

    In order to study the heterogeneity of tolerance to low temperature (4 °C) of different Staphylococcus aureus strains, as well as its relationship between the cell membrane integrity and related gene expression. The low temperature tolerances of four isolated S. aureus strains were compared by plating counting prior to viable cell counting. Results showed that after four weeks of low temperature treatment, the BB-1 strain could form small colony variants (SCVs) compared to other strains, which also exhibited the strongest tolerance to low temperature and the survival rate reached 75.50 %. Comparatively, the BH-25 strain with the weakest tolerance was unable to form SCVs and the survival rate was only 45.68 %. Subsequently, the leakage of intracellular contents, the conductivity of the bacterial suspension, and the crystal violet staining analysis were performed to study the effect of low temperature on the cell membrane permeability. The results indicated that the integrity of the BB-1 cell membrane is stronger than BH-25. Thereafter, the quantitative real-time PCR was employed to analyze the regulation patterns of the stress tolerance related genes (rsbV, rsbW and sigB) and the cell membrane fatty acid biosynthesis related genes (fabD, fabF, fabG, fabH and fabI). The result indicated that the transcriptional levels of the tested genes were significantly higher in BB-1 strain than those in BH-25 (P<0.05). The tested four S. aureus strains exhibited significant difference in the tolerance to low temperature, BB-1 that can form SCVs has a stronger survival capability at low temperature, while the cell membrane is more intact to inhibit the leakage of cellular content. Moreover, the expression levels of rsbV-rsbW/sigB system genes and fab series genes that regulate cell membrane fatty acid biosynthesis in SCVs cells were significantly higher than the strain that could not form SCVs. The present study offers a newly basis for clarifying the mechanism of S. aureus low temperature tolerance, as well as for guiding the development of safety control technology for cold-chain food.

    The growth of Bacillus licheniformis DW2 and the bacitracin anabolism are competitive in energy and precursors utilization. In order to improve the efficiency of bacitracin synthesis by B. licheniformis DW2, the regulatory effect of ccpN knockout in two strains was studied in 20 L bioreactor. The results showed that the peak bacitracin production of DW2ΔccpN (1 337 U/mL) was 30.6% higher than that of DW2 (1 024 U/mL). However, the maximum biomass of DW2ΔccpN (3.39×1010 CFU/mL) was only 61% of DW2 (5.56×1010 CFU/mL). In addition, the extracellular amino acids content of DW2ΔccpN (36 h) and the total amount of overflow organic acids (22-27 h) were 43.8% and 24.7%-37.6% higher than that of DW2, respectively. Meanwhile, the transcriptome expression (TPM value) of exponential phase including energy metabolism (citZ, icd, zwf, cydA), amino acid transport (relA, brnQ, vpr, yvbW), pyruvate conversion (pycA, pckA, pyk) and hprK was also enhanced by 2.0-18.4 times than that of DW2, respectively. The results suggested that in the strain DW2ΔccpN ,the overflow metabolism was enhanced, providing more carbon sources and energy molecules in the logarithmic period; the stringent response was increased, reducing the regulatory activity of CodY, decreasing the cell growth rate and increasing the amino acid transport capacity and the supplies of ATP and NADPH were improved, which ultimately enhanced bacitracin synthesis efficiency, providing important references for bacitracin fermentation production.

    Lactobacillus acetotolerans is the dominant bacteria in the middle and late fermentation in the pits of Luzhou-flavor Baijiu, which produces excessive acids and makes strong acidity of fermented grains. A strain FKL1.0204 in fermented grains was isolated and identified by morphological characteristics, physiological and biochemical characteristics, 16S rDNA gene sequence analysis, pheS and rpoA gene sequence analysis and acid tolerance screening. It was identified as Lactobacillus acetotolerans. Strain FKL1.0204 could withstand the acidic environment of pH 4, and the extreme survival pH was 3. The study of acid production characteristics showed that it was hetero-lactic acid fermentation, which mainly metabolized lactic acid and acetic acid, and finally lowers the pH of fermentation liquid to about 3.5. The contents of lactic acid and acetic acid were the highest in the MRS medium under pH 6 (modified by acetic acid), (28.32±0.54) g/L and (2.73±0.52) g/L respectively.

    The diversity of bacterial community during the fermentation of mechanical and artificial high-temperature Daqu of Maotai-flavor Baijiu was analyzed by SMRT technology. The results showed that at the phyla level, the dominant bacteria in the two types of Daqu were the same in the whole fermentation process, in which Firmicutes was the most dominant. There were 20 dominant genera at the genus level, including Weissella, Kroppenstedtia, and Thermoastatinomyces. Among them, Weissella was the dominant bacteria in the process of entering the chamber. In the first Anqu stage, Thermoastatinomyces was the dominant bacteria in artificial Daqu, while Weissella, Scopulibacillius and Bacillus were the dominant bacteria in mechanized Daqu. In the second Fanqu stage, Lentibacillus was the main genus in artificial Daqu and Weissella was the main genus in mechanical Daqu. In the Chaiqu stage, the diversity of bacteria decreased, and Kroppenstedtia was major in both artificial and mechanical Daqu. The results showed that there were some differences in the dominant bacteria community during the fermentation of the two Daqu, but as the fermentation terminated, the dominant bacteria reached the same. The correlation results showed that there was a significant positive correlation among the most bacterial genera, and the interaction between mechanical and artificial Daqu further revealed the complex interaction between bacterial communities in the process of high-temperature Daqu production. This study provided basic data for the mechanism of Maotai-flavor Baijiu.

    The health benefits of green tea are largely attributed to the main ingredient catechin, of which epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) accounts for 50%-70%. EGCG is a flavone-3-ol polyphenol compound with phenolic antioxidant properties. The six o-phenolic hydroxyl groups in the structure make it superior to other catechins in many properties. EGCG has a low bioavailability, digestion and absorption mainly occur in the small intestine, so EGCG can interact with intestinal microbes to affect the composition of bacteria and metabolites. The interactions between intestinal microbes and the host are one of the important ways for substances to exert physiological functions. At present, there are few relevant studies, which only focus on animal disease models such as obesity and colitis. In this study, SPF C57BL/6J healthy mice were selected for a 4-week EGCG supplement experiment. 16S rRNA sequencing, short-chain fatty acid determination, untargeted metabolite analysis, plasma biochemical analysis, and other analytical methods were chosen to explore the changes of intestinal flora and fecal metabolites in healthy mice after EGCG intake and filled the relevant research gaps. Fecal flora 16S rRNA sequencing results showed that EGCG could significantly change the structure and composition of intestinal flora in healthy mice, and increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Akkermansia and Bifidobacterium. Meanwhile, EGCG could inhibit the colonization of harmful bacteria such as Muribaculaceae and promote the health of intestinal flora. Akkermansia was the most obvious changing genus after EGCG intake among those beneficial bacteria. It is worth noting that previous studies have proved that EGCG can promote the increase of Akkermansia abundance in mice with obesity and colitis disease. This study demonstrated that EGCG also could promote the abundance of Akkermansia in healthy mice and combined with a recent in vitro experiment and provided evidence for targeted promotion of Akkermansia abundance. Targeted metabolite analysis, named short-chain fatty acid content determination, showed that EGCG intake increased the contents of acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid significantly, which was associated with the increased abundance of short-chain fatty acid producing bacteria. The results of untargeted metabolite analysis showed that thymidine, 2′-deoxyguanosine, guanine, 2′-deoxyadenosine, and other metabolites related to antiviral and anticancer drugs were increased compared with the control group. Based on the Spearman correlation analysis between differential bacteria and differential metabolites, we speculated that EGCG might promote the increase of 2′-deoxyguanosine, guanine, 2′-deoxyadenosine, and other substances by increasing the proliferation of Romboutsia, Faecalibacterium, and Anaerostipes. These contribute to play EGCG antiviral and anti-cancer physiological functions. Finally, we demonstrated that the physiological functions based on differential bacteria and metabolites, and also proved EGCG could improve the glucose metabolism level of mice significantly. This study provides a scientific basis for the mechanism of EGCG for health benefits and the development of dietary supplement products.

    Influenza virus infections continue to threaten global health. According to 'lung-gut axis' theory, probiotics can prevent host from respiratory virus infection and maintain respiratory health by regulating the host’s immune response. However, the effect and mechanism of probiotics are strain-specific and unclear. This study explored the prophylactic effects of different probiotics on H3N2 infection, as well as the differences of regulation of immune response and intestinal flora composition. Female ICR mice (3-4 weeks old) were randomly divided into control, model, positive control and probiotics treatment groups. Mice were orally administered bacterial suspension (109 CFU/d) for two weeks before infection. Then, all mice were infected intranasally with a dose of 5-times the 50% lethal dose (5 LD50) of the influenza A virus (H3N2) strain, except control group. Results showed that probiotics relieved symptoms, such as weight loss, pulmonary perivascular and parabronchial inflammatory cell infiltration. Besides, probiotics reduced the levels of inflammatory factors in the lungs, especially IL-1β and TNF-α. Nevertheless, the effects of probiotics on cytokines in the blood were significantly different. Bifidobacterium bifidum 2 activated higher expression of innate immune response cytokines, IL-1β and TNF-α, compared with B. bifidum 1 form the same species. Lactobacillus acidophilus 1 and Bifidobacterium breve 2 led to lower level of IL-6, compared with the other strain form the same species. Probiotics regulated the relative abundance of Tyzzerella,Candidatus, Saccharimona and Odoribacter, which be associated with host immune regulation. B. bifidum reduced the levels of Eubacterium coprostanoligenes group and UBA 1819, while L. acidophilus downregulated the level of Akkermansia. The relative abundance of Ruminococcaceae NK4A214 group and Dubosiella was decreased in B. breve groups. B. bifidum 2 was the most effective strain in relieving weight loss and lung damage after H3N2 infections, which may be associated with the upregulation of innate immune response. Moreover, the mechanism of B. bifidum 2 might related to the increase of Aloprevotella in the gut. In conclusion, different probiotics have different effects on the gut composition, which result in the different regulation of H3N2 virus infection.

In this investigation, HSF were irradiated with ultraviolet B (UVB) ray to establish the cell model of light injury. The methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium test (MTT test) was applied to evaluate the effect of Nahlsgen and collagen hydrolysate on cell viability. Dichloro-dihydro-fluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) assay was conducted to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. The effects of Nahlsgen and collagen hydrolysate on hydroxyproline content and the expression of collagen I and elastin of HSF were measured by qRT-PCR and Western Blot. The results indicated that Nahlsgen and collagen hydrolysate improved the cell viability and decreased the levels of ROS to protect HSF from UVB photodamage. Nahlsgen and collagen hydrolysate promoted the expression of collagen and elastin to delay skin aging.

    Tripeptide Pro-His-Pro (PHP) was used to treat LO2 cells and alcoholic liver injury mice respectively. It was verified in vivo and in vitro to study whether PHP can alleviate the liver injury caused by 2,2′-azobis-2-methyl-propanimidamide (AAPH) to hepatocytes and edible alcohol to mice, and to provide relevant ideas for alleviating liver injury. Oxidative stress model was constructed with LO2 cells. The cells were divided into normal group and PHP treatment group. The contents of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione reduction (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in cell lysate were detected. The oxidation related marker proteins were evaluated by Western Blot. Alcoholic liver model was established with C57BL/6J mice. The pathomorphological changes of liver were observed, the physiological and biochemical indexes and oxidation related indexes in liver were detected. The results showed that compared with the alcohol group, the liver tissue of PHP treatment group showed less mild degeneration of hepatocytes, the levels of ALT and AST in serum decreased, the levels of TC, TG and LDL-C decreased, and the levels of HDL-C increased. The increase of CAT, GSH and SOD levels, the decrease of MDA (P<0.05). Peptide PHP can alleviate liver injury by regulating oxidation related indexes and key protein Nrf2 of oxidation pathway.

    Patients with dysphagia usually use food gum-based thickeners to assist in swallowing liquid foods. In this paper, a rheometer was used to study the rheological properties of the xanthan gum and guar gum compound system. Moreover, a gum-based thickener for dysphagia using xanthan gum and guar gum as the main raw materials was developed. Besides the influence of temperature, pH and protein beverages (soy milk, high-fat milk, and skimmed milk) on their rheological properties were detected. Results showed that xanthan gum and guar gum played a synergistic effect and the best compounding ratio was 5∶5. The developed gum-based thickener at a mass concentration of 10 g/L possessed strong shear thinning characteristics and good pH and thermal stability. At room temperature (25 ℃), the η50 (apparent viscosity under 50 s-1) of thickened high-fat milk was the largest, and there was no significant difference in the apparent viscosity of thickened skimmed milk and thickened soy milk. At 20-80 ℃, thickened protein beverages had higher apparent viscosity, indicating that the gum-based thickener had a good thickening effect in hot protein drinks and could meet the requirements of safe swallowing for dysphagia.

    Chickpea dietary fiber (CDF) was extracted by acid and alkali, and its physicochemical characteristics (water holding capacity, oil holding capacity, and expansion force) and microstructure were determined in this study. The changes in emulsifying properties of CDF emulsion with different concentrations (0.4%-2.0%) were studied by analyzing the particle size, potential, micromorphology, creaming index, turbiscan stability index, and rheological characteristics. The results showed that CDF had excellent oil holding capacity (3.17 g/g) and expansion capacity (16.34 mL/g), which may be caused by its loose and porous structure with uneven surface and prominent folds. In terms of emulsification performance, with the increase of CDF emulsion concentration (0.4%-2.0%), the particle size first increased and then decreased, and the creaming index decreased from 53.14% to 0%. The turbiscan stability index and oil-water interfacial tension of the emulsions also reduced with the increase of CDF concentration, while the apparent viscosity and storage modulus of emulsions were increased. Above all, CDF provides a new perspective for its applications in emulsion-based foods.

    In this study, the pectin was extracted from Coffea arabica L. pomace by hydrochloric acid extraction (TAE), microwave-assisted (MAE), and ultrasonic-assisted (UAE) methods, respectively. Then pectin was modified by acid-base modification and thermal modification. The molecular weight, monosaccharide composition, content of galacturonic acid, degree of esterification, and surface morphology of pectin were determined before and after modification. Moreover, the scavenging ability of DPPH radical, ·OH, ·O2-, and ABTS cationic radical of pectin before and after modification were also investigated. The results showed that the pectin yield of the three extraction methods was as follows: MAE(7.24%)>UAE(6.88%)>TAE(5.21%). There was no significant difference in pectin yield between the MAE method and the UAE method (P>0.05). While, arabinose and galactose of nine pectins (A1-A3, B1-B3, C1-C3) were relatively high after the modification treatment. Besides, after acid-base modification and thermal modification, the content of galacturonic acid in pectin increased, the degree of esterification decreased, and the soil was relatively loose, with cavity structure or lamellar structure. The modified pectin showed good scavenging ability to DPPH radical, ·OH, ·O2- and ABTS cationic radical, which all increased with the increase of the mass concentration of pectin. When the mass concentration of pectin was 3.2mg/mL, the scavenging capacity was as follows: acid-base modified pectin>heat-modified pectin>unmodified pectin. The removal rates of DPPH radical, ·OH, ·O2- and ABTS cationic radical were all greater than 80%, 75%, and 85% respectively. The results have a certain significance for the development and utilization of Coffea arabica pomace.

    To reduce production cost and preparation of high-performance shrimp surimi gel, the process conditions of compound shrimp surimi were optimized by a single factor experiment combined with an orthogonal experiment with gel strength as the main index. The results showed that the optimum conditions of compound shrimp surimi were as follows: xanthan gum 3%, tilapia protein 7%, chopping time 90 s, and gel time 20 min. Under these conditions, the gel strength was 29.55 N. mm, which met the national standard of AA grade. Compared with pure shrimp surimi, the water holding capacity of compound shrimp surimi was 87.5% which increased by 20%. Moreover, the uneasy flow of water was 94.1% (increased by 2.7%), the free water was 1.8% (decreased by 56.4%) and the change of bound water was small. The absorption peak was red-shifted near 3 300 cm-1, and the salt-soluble protein content increased. The results of differential scanning calorimetry showed that the thermal stability of compound shrimp surimi was improved. The elastic modulus (G′) and viscous modulus (G″) of the composite shrimp surimi gel significantly increased, so the elasticity of the composite shrimp surimi was improved. In conclusion, the xanthan gum-tilapia protein complex can significantly improve the gel quality of shrimp surimi, and it has an important meaning in theory and practice for the industrial production and gel performance improvement of shrimp surimi.

    In this study, Porphyra polysaccharide was used as an exogenous additive to improve the quality of surimi products. The effects of Porphyra polysaccharide on the gel properties, water status, microstructure, protein secondary structure, and antioxidant activity of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) surimi were investigated. The results showed that the addition of 0.4% (mass ratio) Porphyra polysaccharide significantly improved the gel strength, textural properties, and water holding capacity (WHC) of silver carp surimi, and the whiteness was acceptable. The result of the water state illustrated that the addition of Porphyra polysaccharides could shorten the gel relaxation time T2 of surimi and convert part of free water into bound water. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that the surimi with 0.4% polysaccharide addition had the most uniform and dense three-dimensional gel network structure. However, excessive polysaccharides interfered with the interaction with protein molecules, disrupting the gel network structure and leading to a decrease in gel quality. FT-IR analysis confirmed that the α-helix content decreased significantly and the β-turn content increased (P<0.05) in the range of 0%-0.4% of polysaccharide addition. When the addition amount exceeded 0.4%, the α-helix content gradually rebounded, however, the β-turn showed the opposite trend. Antioxidation experiments indicated that the surimi gels supplemented with Porphyra polysaccharides exhibited the more excellent scavenging ability of DPPH radicals, hydroxyl radicals, and ABTS cationic radicals. It could also inhibit protein oxidation in a dose-dependent manner compared with the control group.

    To explore the quality change laws of loach (Paramisgurnus dabryanus ssp. Taiwan) during frying, the key factors of frying time, frying temperature, and oil types in ready-to-eat loach were analyzed with sensory evaluation, physicochemical indexes, color, water distribution, texture, and the correlation among its indexes. The results showed that with the extension of frying time and the increase of frying temperature, the sensory total score of ready-to-eat loach increased at first and then decreased, and the score was the highest at 150 s(90.84±2.13)and 180 ℃(92.07±0.90), respectively. The moisture content of ready-to-eat loach prepared by different frying time, frying temperature, and oil types was negatively correlated with oil content. The hardness of ready-to-eat loach prepared by different frying time, frying temperature, and oil types was negatively correlated with springiness. In addition, ready-to-eat loach of free water moved toward bound water and the b* value increased. The ready-to-eat loach was of the best quality when it was fried in 180 ℃ blended oil for 150 s. According to the correlation analysis of Pearson, the total sensory score could effectively evaluate the quality characteristics of ready-to-eat loach.

    The mechanical and biological properties of chitosan films need to improve.This paper aims to prepare three kinds of phenolic acid-grafted-chitosan with similar grafting rates, and then prepare composite films.The physical properties, bioactivities, and preservation application of the films were evaluated.Results showed that the grafting of phenolic acids with chitosan decreased the moisture content and water vapor permeability and increased the opacity, water-solubility, tensile strength, elongation at break, Young’s modulus, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities of chitosan film.Caffeic acid-grafted-chitosan (CA-g-CS) film exhibited better above-mentioned properties than p-coumaric acid/ferulic acid-grafted-chitosan films, which may be caused by the phenomenon that there were two phenolic hydroxyl groups in caffeic acid.Meanwhile, CA-g-CS film could more effectively retard weight loss, pH increase, volatile base nitrogen accumulation, and microbial growth of Penaeus vannamei during storage.Our work revealed that the preservative of phenolic acid-grafted-chitosan films’ effect on P.vannamei and its properties were significantly influenced by the position and number of hydroxyl groups in phenolic acids.

    To investigate the effect of different forms of SO2 preservative on the hardness of ‘Shine Muscat’ grapes during storage, the fruit firmness, cell wall component (proto-pectin, soluble pectin) content, and cell wall degradation enzyme [cellulase (Cx), pectin methylesterase (PME), polygalacturonase (PG) and β-D-galactosidase (β-gal)] activity of SO2 powder, SO2 tablet, and SO2 capsule patch were regularly detected and analyzed. The results showed that the hardness was significantly correlated with the activity of Cx, PME, and PG (P<0.01), there was no significant correlation with β-gal activity (P>0.05), Cx, PME, and PG contributed more to fruit firmness than β-gal. Three different forms of SO2 preservatives could effectively slow down the decrease of hardness and delay the degradation of propectin during 0-60 days of storage. On the 60d of storage, the hardness decreased by 32.58% (SO2 powder), 30.20% (SO2 tablet), and 26.62% (SO2 capsule patch), respectively, compared with the initial stage. The content of proto-pectin in fruit treated with SO2 powder, SO2 tablet, and SO2 capsule patch increased by 19.05%, 30.81%, and 40.62% compared with that in the control group. The inhibition effects of different forms of SO2 preservative on cell wall degrading enzymes were as follows: SO2 capsule patch > SO2 tablet > SO2 powder > the control group. Different forms of SO2 preservative treatment can better maintain the grape hardness during storage, among which the SO2 capsule patch form of preservative treatment of grapes is the best.

    The magnesium-iron (Mg/Fe) flameless self-heater currently used in foods cannot achieve the expected thermal efficiency during the food shelf life as the storage time goes on. In this study, the Mg/Fe type self-heater was subject to the accelerated tests at 55 ℃, and the effects of three factors in the storage period on heating performance and food heating effects were studied, including packaging bag materials, existence of salt electrolyte and vacuum. The results showed that the heating performance of different series self-heaters and food heating effects was decreased with the extension of storage time. Water, oxygen and salt were the important factors in the occurrence of heat electrochemical reactions, keeping no salt and vacuum conditions contribute to help maintain heating performance and food heating effect in the storage period. Compared to PE bags, composite aluminum foil bag packaging had better barrier air and water vapor performance. With the same package and storage time, heat performance and food heating effect of four series of heaters of composite aluminum foil bags were higher than that of PE bag packaging. The results provide technical basis for the Mg/Fe type flameless food self-heater formulation, which helps to provide heating efficiency during the food shelf life.

    Phenylketonuria is an amino acid metabolic disorder caused by the deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase, which leads to the over-accumulation of phenylalanine in body. The phenylalanine-restricted low-protein diet plays a significant role of nutrition supply to phenylketonuria patients. The aim of this study was to screen the probiotics with phenylalanine-degrading activity and evaluate the potential application of fermented milk production. The results showed that Lactobacillus plantarum YZX21 and Bifidobacterium animalis F1-7 exhibited high phenylalanine degradation ability. The degradation rates were 12.43% and 10.09% respectively. Moreover, L. plantarum YZX21 and B. animalis F1-7 had good gastrointestinal tolerance, self-aggregation and adhesion ability. Compared with B. animalis F1-7, L. plantarum YZX21 showed better fermentation properties and could be used as an auxiliary starter strain to produce fermented milk. As well as compared with the commercially fermented milk, the content of phenylalanine in fermented milk inoculated with L. plantarum YZX21 was decreased by 13.10%. In addition, the sensory characteristics of the fermented milk with L. plantarum YZX21was better than that of commercially fermented milk. These findings indicated that L. plantarum YZX21 had high phenylalanine degradation ability, excellent fermentation and probiotic properties, which laid the foundation for the development of foods for special medical purpose to phenylketonuria patients.

    To improve the edible safety and the quality of low nitrite sour bamboo shoots, in this study the fresh bamboo from Liuzhou, Guangxi was used as raw materials for the production of the sour bamboo shoots by natural fermentation and pure lactic acid bacteria (LAB) fermentation. In order to explore the effect of different fermentation methods on the quality of low nitrite Liuzhou sour bamboo shoots, the pH value, total acid, reducing sugar, and nitrite content were detected as indicators during the fermentation. The texture and flavor of fermented sour bamboo shoots were analyzed after fermentation. The results indicated that the pH value, reducing sugar, and nitrite content of pure LAB fermented sour bamboo shoots were lower than natural fermentation, and the total acid content was higher than natural fermentation during the fermentation process. After fermentation, the hardness, crispness, and sensory scores of pure LAB fermented sour bamboo shoots were better than those of natural fermentation, but the flavor components of the two fermented sour bamboo shoots were relatively similar and the main flavor components were esters, aldehydes, phenols, and alcohols The nitrite content of pure LAB fermented sour bamboo shoots was lower than natural fermentation. It had a short fermentation cycle and maintained a flavor composition similar to that of naturally fermented sour bamboo shoots. This study provides a theoretical basis for the development of low nitrite Liuzhou sour bamboo shoots.

    As a renewable agroforestry resource, corn stover is rich in lignocellulose, which can produce xylose, glucose, arabinose and other sugars after being hydrolyzed by acid. These sugars can be used as a carbon source for the fermentation of Bacillus subtilis to produce acetoin, which has important economic and social benefits in the development of new energy and environmental protection. The effects of hydrolysis acid concentration, hydrolysis temperature and hydrolysis time on the yield of sugars in corn stover hydrolysate were investigated by response surface design, and the optimal pretreatment conditions were 120 ℃, sulfuric acid concentration of 1.0% and hydrolysis time of 1 h, under which the damage to the fiber structure of corn stover was reduced while obtaining more sugars. The yield of acetoin reached the maximum of 10.4 g/L until the 5th day by the fermentation of B. subtilis in the 5 L automatic fermenter with the mixture of hydrolyzate of corn stover and LB medium. And the hydrolyzate residue could be used in papermaking, synergistically improving the comprehensive utilization of corn stover.

    The effect of nitrogen source addition on the cultivated Stropharia rugoso-annulata with bamboo sawdust was studied. Bamboo sawdust were used as the main raw material, wheat bran was used as nitrogen source, and different amounts of nitrogen source were added to bamboo sawdust culture material. Nitrogen source addition could promote the fermentation and decomposition of bamboo sawdust and improve the physical and chemical properties of bamboo sawdust. Nitrogen source significantly (P<0.05) increased the protein and polysaccharide content of S. rugoso-annulata, reduced the soluble sugar content, but had no significant effect on the total phenol. Mineral elements showed a ‘V’ trend with the addition of nitrogen source. Excessive nitrogen source inhibited the growth of S. rugoso-annulata and reduced biological efficiency, resulting in the risk of heavy metal pollution. Although the growth rate of T2 treatment (92% bamboo sawdust+8% wheat bran) was slow, the biological efficiency reached 86.66%, the residue of heavy metals was the lowest, and the comprehensive evaluation of nutritional quality was the highest.

    To investigate the changes of volatile flavor compounds in litchi wine fermented by Saccharomyces bayanus, electronic nose and gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) were used to analyze the volatile flavor compounds. The results obtained by electronic nose analysis showed that the volatile flavor was mainly responded in sensor of W5S (nitrogen oxides) and W2S (alcohols, aldehydes and ketones). It was found that the alcohols and aldehydes and ketones (such as ethanol, propanal, 3-hydroxyl-2-butanone etc.) determined by GC-IMS were significantly changed during fermentation, this was mutually confirmed with the results of electronic nose. In addition, the results of GC-IMS analysis also showed that the acetic acid esters, including ethyl acetate, isoamyl acetate, etc. were changed significantly. Relative odor activity value (ROAV) showed that the key aroma compounds in litchi wine were ethyl butanoate, ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, 2-methylbutanal, isoamyl acetate, ethyl hexanoate and ethyl octanoate, which together improved the richness of litchi wine flavor. Sensory evaluation score of color, aroma, taste and style for the final fermented litchi wine was 76, showing a good flavor of fruit and wine. The results suggested that the Saccharomyces bayanus has potential to be applied for the development of fermented litchi product, offering a way of improvement of the sensory characteristics of litchi wine.

    The detection of additives in pickles in Sichuan province will provide a reference for government regulation and consumption of residents. There were 576 lot samples of pickles collected from 42 districts or counties of 21 prefectural-level cities and autonomous prefectures in Sichuan in 2019 used as raw materials. The additive contents in samples were detected according to Chinese national standards, and the residual status of additives in pickles was analyzed. The results showed that 12 kinds of additives were detected from pickles and the detection rates were from 1.91% to 65.10%. Moreover, the detection rates of benzoic acid, sorbic acid, acesulfame-k, dehydroacetic acid, sulfur dioxide, tartrazine, and nitrite of those additives exceeded 40%. Eight additives were added excessively and one additive was added illegally, their exceeding-standard rates were 0.17%-13.89%, and benzoic acid (8.33%), sulfur dioxide (13.89%), and tartrazine (1.91%) had higher exceeding-standard rates. Furthermore, at least five additives were detected from every district or country and some additives in pickles from 31 districts or counties (73.81%) exceeded Chinese national standards. 1-9 additives were simultaneously detected from 98.78% of pickle samples, and most of the samples (49.31%) simultaneously contained 3-4 additives. One to three additives in 22.57% of pickle samples simultaneously exceeded national standards, and one additive in most of the samples (18.23%) exceeded standards. Addition and the exceeding standard of additives in pickles were associated with the types of raw materials. Nine, nine, and six additives in bulk pickles and pickles produced by the self-employed and from farmer’s market exceeded standards, respectively, and exceeding-standard rates of benzoic acid and sulfur dioxide reached up to 13.64%-16.36% and 24.52%-36.35%. The results demonstrated that the additive is widely used in pickles in Sichuan and some additives were added excessively and illegally.

    Glycosylation is an effective way to increase the functional diversity of small molecule compounds in nature, and can significantly improve the water solubility, stability and other physical and chemical properties of compounds. Among them, β-glycoside compounds are widely present in nature and have important biological activities. However, due to the low efficiency of β-anomer-selective glycosylation catalyzed by enzymes, the production of many β-isomer glycosides currently used to be dependent upon methods such as separation and extraction of natural products and chemical synthesis. This review focuses on the enzymatic synthesis of β-glycoside. The characteristics, catalytic mechanism and substrate specificity of enzymes, which can catalyze β-glycosylation of small molecule compounds, were summarized. Directed evolution of enzymes with cheap oligosaccharides as glycosyl donor for enhancing β-glycosylation function was also discussed. These knowledges would be helpful for researches about enzymatic β-glycosylation of small molecule compounds.
