    Hirudin variant Ⅲ (Rhv3), a leech derived active ingredient, has the potential effect on the prevention and treatment of cataracts. To prepare sufficient amounts of Rhv3 for clinical research, the effective and stable process for Rhv3 expression in Corynebacterium glutamicum was developed in this study. Firstly, Rhv3 secretion expression strain, which was controlled by Ptac promoter and CspA signal peptide, was constructed in C. glutamicum. The expression level of this strain was compared in different media. The results showed that Rhv3 activity was highest in the BHI medium and reached 3.02×103 ATU/L. Next, the RBSs was screened using egfp reporter gene to increase production of recombinant protein. And the RBS1 was finally selected and applied to the construction and expression of the strain of multi-copy strain of Rhv3. By screening the signal peptide and copy number using 3A assembly, the six was selected as the best copy number of Rhv3. It was found that this strain could promote the expression level to the maximum extent in C. glutamicum. Further increased production of Rhv3 was achieved in large-scale fermentation, the M6S-PorB strain was used to produce Rhv3. Its yield was approximately accumulate 1.89 g/L, and the activity of Rhv3 reached 10.91×103 ATU/L, which was 3.61 times higher than that of the starting strain. Finally, the Rhv3 was purified by nickel column, and the purity was higher than 90%. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of multi-copy strategy to produce recombinant protein in C. glutamicum. This strategy based on the 3A assembly would provide an expression system with effective, reliable, and low cost for recombinant protein expression in C. glutamicum.

    Wine region of East Foot of Helan Mountain in Ningxia has superior geographical location, unique climate and soil characteristics, and abundant microbial resources to be exploited. In this study, we intended to select excellent stress-resistant lactic acid bacteria with indigenous characteristics during spontaneous malolactic fermentation (MLF) of wines from the wine producing region of central East Foot of Helan Mountain. The lactic acid bacteria were isolated and screened using ATB medium with stress conditions, and then identified by species-specific PCR. Assays of malic acid degradation, safety evaluation, and wine brewing were carried out to analyze the malic acid metabolism ability and effects on the basic physical and chemical index determination and aroma components of wine among these strains. Eight Oenococcus oeni strains with superior stress-resistant ability and high safety were selected. Among the eight strains, O. oeni XMN18 and BM68 showed significantly faster metabolic rate of malic acid than O. oeni 31-DH and SD-2a did, and completed MLF on the third day. The basic physical and chemical indexes in wines such as the concentrations of residual sugar and volatile acid met the national standard. Especially, the total concentration of aroma components in wine fermented by O. oeni XMN18 was significantly higher than that by the control and other strains. All the selected strains can complete MLF and have high safety, especially, O. oeni XMN18 has an extremely positive impact on the aroma quality of wine.

    1,3-Propanediol oxidoreductase (PDOR) is a key regulating enzyme which catalyzes the rate-determining step in the biosynthesis of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) from glycerol. Rational design of site-directed mutations was performed to achieve better catalytic activity, thermal stability, and pH tolerance, through calculating the free folding energy of Klebsiella pneumoniae PDOR(KpPDOR) with PoPMuSiC 2.1 and identifying functional hotspot around the catalytic center, as well as sequence conservation analysis with HotSpot Wizard 3.0. Two improved variants were obtained after directed evolution, induced expression, and purification. Their enzymatic properties are further investigated. V155N showed 1.7-fold and 2.5-fold reducing activity, compared with that of KpPDOR at pH 7.5 and 4.0 respectively. While the half-life of N262E at 37 ℃ lengthened 40%. Protein structure analysis further illustrated the improved properties. V155N introduced two hydrogen bonds into the β-sheet where it’s located, while N262E introduced another two hydrogen bonds, strengthening the rigidity of catalytic center. Thus, both variants improved the stability. The results of the conversion of glycerol into 1,3-PD by resting cells showed that the production capacity of 1,3-PD was 1.16 mmol/L of the engineered strain V155N, which was higher than that of the wild-type engineered strain (0.82 mmol/L). This study highlights a rational-design method which can be further applied in other industrial enzymes′ optimization.

    Acne is an inflammatory skin condition of the sebaceous units of the hair follicles, with a prevalence of up to 85% in adolescents, which is associated with the colonization of Cutibacterium acnes. To obtain microorganisms that can efficiently antagonize C. acnes and enrich the resource base of C. acnes antagonists. Agar diffusion method was used to screen the strains with strong antibacterial activity against C. acnes from sauerkraut. The strain was identified by colony morphology, biochemical identification, and 16S rDNA gene sequence comparison. The antibacterial activity of the antagonistic bacteria was enhanced by optimizing the culture medium and fermentation conditions. In vitro safety evaluation methods were used to assess the safety of antagonistic bacteria. A strain HA2 was screened for its ability to efficiently antagonize C. acnes and was initially identified as Bacillus haynesii. By optimizing the fermentation conditions of strain HA2, the diameter of the fermentation supernatant inhibition circle was increased from 38 mm to 53 mm. According to the conversion of the tetracycline potency curve, the potency increased from 20 308.6 U to 112 927.6 U, resulting in a 5.56-fold increase. After in vitro safety evaluation, strain HA2 was initially judged to be a safe strain. The Bacillus haynesii HA2 is a strain that can efficiently antagonize C. acnes and has successfully passed the in vitro safety evaluation, which is valuable for further research.

    Kefiran-whey protein (WP) mixed system was prepared in neutral aqueous phase medium. The interaction between kefiran and WP in the mixed system was studied by measuring the particle size, potential absolute value, microstructure, fluorescence spectrum, and rheological properties by scanning electron microscope, laser particle size analyzer, fluorescence spectrophotometer, and rheometer. The results showed that the particle size increased, the absolute value of zeta potential decreased. The UV absorption peak intensity and fluorescence intensity all decreased through the interaction between kefiran and WP in the kefiran-WP mixed system. The microstructure showed that compared with the rough and loose granular structure of WP and the smooth and loose surface and occasionally reticular structure of kefiran with the characteristics of thin film, the kefiran-WP mixed system has a fragmented, compact, and smooth polymer structure. The rheological properties showed that the depletion between kefiran and WP improved the apparent viscosity and enhanced the gel properties of the mixed system. The stability of kefiran-WP mixed solution obviously depends on frequency.

    Enzymes are naturally occurring and efficient catalysts. There are so many homologous enzymes during the long evolutionary process. The homologous enzymes have high sequence similarity but different functions, and the reasons for the functional differences are of great interest. In carotenoid synthesis,the amino acid sequences of lycopene β-cyclase (LCYB) and neoxanthin synthase (NSY) are highly similar but they have different functions in lycopene cyclization and there was no studies have reported the reasons for the differences in cyclization. Therefore, this study selected LyLCYB from Lycium barbarum origin and Solanum lycopersicum-derived SoNSY with 88.2% amino acid sequence similarity, and constructed different chimeric genes by replacing the fragment of soNSY with the fragment of lyLCYB at the corresponding position, and used the strategy of site-directed mutagenesis to construct point mutant proteins at different sites. Then, the modified genes were heterologous expression in Escherichia coli and their lycopene cyclization activity was determined. Finally, the research had identified the site of 219 as the key amino acid responsible for the functional differences in lycopene β-cyclization between LyLCYB and SoNSY. This study provides theoretical support for further investigation of the functional differences affecting LCYB and NSY from other sources.

    In order to screen non-Saccharomyces yeasts autochthonous strains endowed with high glycosidase activity, 912 yeasts were isolated from spontaneous alcoholic fermentations of the major wine grape cultivars planted in Hexi Corridor of Gansu Province. The β-glucosidase-producing non-Saccharomyces yeast strains were preliminarily screened by esculin medium, and the activities of β-glucosidase (β-Glu), α-L-arabinofuranosidase (α-L-Ara), α-L-rhamnosidase (α-L-Rha) and β-D-xylosidase (β-Xyl) originated from these screened strains were determined quantitatively by p-NP method. Comparing the glucosidase producing ability of non-Saccharomyces yeasts, the adaptability of the selected strains to wine fermentation conditions was analyzed. The results showed that non-Saccharomyces yeast autochthonous strains HX-1, HX-2, HX-3, and HX-4 had high glycosidase activity. According to the morphological characteristics of these strains grown on WL medium and the sequence analysis of 26S rDNA D1/D2 domain, HX-1 and HX-3 were identified as Hanseniaspora uvarum, while HX-2 and HX-4 were Metschnikowia pulcherrima. The individual glycosidase produced by these strains exhibited high activity at pH 5.0-6.0 and 40-50 ℃. In addition, high concentration of alcohol, SO2, and glucose can inhibit the glucosidase activity. The activity of β-Glu produced by HX-2 and HX-4 strains, α-L-Rha by HX-1 strain, α-L-Ara by HX-4 strain, and β-Xyl by HX-1 and HX-3 strains was high under the conditions of wine fermentation. Overall, our study provides technical support for the directional selection of the yeast strain with good aroma enhancement performance according to the type of glucosides in wine grapes.

    In this study, rice starch was extracted from rice, and Ca(OH)2 of different mass fractions (0%-1.6%) was added to the rice starch. The crystallinity, thermal properties, gelatinization, rheology, texture, short-range order of starch, and the change of water state in the starch gel were studied. Results showed that the addition of Ca(OH)2 decreased the relative crystallinity and the gelatinization enthalpy, and the final viscosity and the retrogradation characteristics of the rice starch were improved when the addition of Ca(OH)2 was less than 0.8% (mass ratio). As the addition amount of Ca(OH)2 was 0.8%, the final viscosity and the setback of the paste achieved the highest value, which were 1.31 times and 3.93 times of the control samples, respectively. Ca(OH)2 could improve the rheological and texture properties of rice starch gel, and the storage modulus, hardness, and chewability of rice starch gel reached the maximum when the addition amount of Ca(OH)2 was 0.8%. By comparing the ratios of 1 047 cm-1/1 022 cm-1 to 1 022 cm-1/995 cm-1 in Fourier-transform infrared spectra, the short-range order of rice starch first increased and then decreased, as the steadily increased Ca(OH)2 addition amount. The transverse relaxation time T2 of rice starch gel was measured by low-field nuclear magnetic resonance technology and the results demonstrated that the overall fluidity of water decreased, the proportion of free water significantly increased with the addition of Ca(OH)2, and the proportion of the water that was not easy to flow partially decreased by converting to free water. It was suggested that the gelling properties of the rice starch were affected by Ca(OH)2 in a dose-dependent manner. This study could provide a reference for the application of Ca(OH)2 in the processing of starch gel food.

    To clarify the flavor changes of volatile compounds during the processing of deep-fried and battered mushroom stalks of Stropharia rugoso-annulata (DBSS), headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) and electronic nose technology were used to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the differences of volatile flavor compounds in six groups of samples in the four processing processes of the fresh stalk, battering, pre-frying, and refrying. Results showed a total of 166 volatile flavor substances were identified in the four processing stages. By calculating the relative percentage content and relative odor activity values, it was found that the volatile flavor compounds of unfried samples were mainly alcohols and esters, and 1-octene-3-one contributed the most to flavor. The most aldehydes were found in the fried samples, and (E)-2-nonenal was the compound with the largest flavor contribution, and the richness of the flavor substances was significantly increased after frying, adding aromas such as roasted nut and chocolate aromas. Principal component analysis (PCA) showed that there were great differences in volatile flavor compounds in different processing processes, and the electronic nose could effectively distinguish between volatile flavor substances in pre- and post-frying samples. This study defined the flavor characteristics of DBSS during processing from a compound perspective, it could provide a theoretical reference for broadening the product form of S. rugoso-annulata.

    In this study, Dendrobium officinale and glutinous rice were used as raw materials and a mixture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Wickerhamomyces anomalus was used for the rice wine fermentation. Differences in the quality of rice wine fermented from different parts of Dendrobium officinale, flowers (Do-Fl), stems (Do-St), leaves (Do-Fo) and roots (Do-Ro), were compared by measuring physicochemical indexes, sensory quality, active substances and volatile flavor compounds. Rice wine fermented without D. officinale was used as a control. Results showed that among the five groups of rice wine, the sensory score of Do-Fl rice wine was up to 86.80, the total phenolic content was the highest at 721.02 mg/L, and the volatile flavor compounds was the most, 29 in total. The content of volatile flavor compounds in Do-Fo was the highest, totaling 64.71 mg/mL. Furthermore, Do-Ro was low in the contents of total phenols, flavonoids, and polysaccharides, and had only 25 volatile flavor compounds, which led to the lowest sensory scores. The quality of rice wine fermented by different parts of D. officinale was different, but it was generally higher than the control. Moreover, the quality of rice wine fermented from D. officinale flowers was better. This study provides a reference for the application of different parts of D. officinale in fermentation, for a better utilization of different parts of D. officinale.

The sausage fermented without starter culture was served as control group (CK). The results showed that the pH of the experimental groups was between 5.007-5.380, which was significantly lower than that of the CK group (5.880). Compared with the CK group, the addition of starter cultures could effectively reduce the degree of lipid oxidation, improve the stability, color and texture, and enhance the flavor, and the effects of different starter cultures on the quality of fermented sausage were different. Among the four experimental groups, the SM-181 group showed the best anti-lipid oxidation effect, the greatest color and texture improvement effect, the highest content of free amino acids, the highest sensory score and the richest flavor. On the whole, SM-181 is considered to be the best for the production and processing of high-quality fermented sausage among the four starter cultures.

    In this study, a novel process coupling two-step ultrafiltration (UF) and electrodialysis (ED) was developed to produce high-purity Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides. In the UF-1st process, 0.5 mol/L NaCl was introduced to increase the extraction rate of polysaccharides. Afterwards, the ED process was employed to remove NaCl and heavy metal ions from the extraction. The high-purity Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides were obtained after removing small-molecule impurities such as monosaccharides and oligosaccharides through the UF-2nd process. The operation parameters of the UF and ED processes were optimized in the present study. When the temperature and pH of the feed fluid were at 35 ℃ and 6, the optimal recovery (78.2%) and purity (86.4%) of polysaccharides were achieved. When the voltage and ED time were set at 15 V and 30 min, the removal rate of lead, copper, and mercury reached 95.8%, 26.8%, and 73.3%, respectively.

    Ganoderma lucidum has shown a high dual-purpose value in medicine and food, and there are still great prospects for the development of its modern products. Based on the pharmacological and nutritional theories, the research aimed to design a new product with polysaccharide-rich Ganoderma lucidum extract and γ-aminobutyric acid and assessed its effect on sleep improvement. The tablets composed of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide and γ-aminobutyric acid were prepared by wet granulation. According to the results of granulation and tableting, as well as the tablet hardness and disintegration time, the optimal formulation was screened out. According to the “Technical Standards for Testing & Assessment of Health Food”, the function assessment for the purpose of verifying its effect on sleep improvement was carried out with SPF mice. Results showed that the optimal prescription consisted of Ganoderma lucidum extract (12.5%,mass fraction), γ-aminobutyric acid (25%), microcrystalline cellulose (32.5%), maltodextrin (13.75%), corn starch (1.25%), croscarmellose sodium (5%), povidone K30 solution (10%) with a concentration of 65%, and magnesium stearate (0.5%). With the procedures of mixing, tableting, and coating, the tan, smooth, and round tablets were obtained. As for the assessment, the tablets significantly prolonged the sleep time of mice treated with pentobarbital sodium in the high-dose and medium-dose groups (P<0.01). Compared to the control group, there was no apparent synergistic effect on subthreshold dose hypnosis with pentobarbital sodium in the three experimental groups. The sleep latency of mice treated with barbital sodium was significantly shortened in the high-dose group (P<0.01). There was no obvious direct sleep effect on mice. It could be concluded that the preparation procedure of the tablets is stable and the qualities of the products are controllable, so it is suitable for industrial production. The functional experimental studies suggest that tablets composed of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide and γ-aminobutyric acid contribute to improving the quality of sleep.

In order to explore the diversity of fungal communities in mainly cultivated of ‘Guichang’ and ‘Hongyang’ kiwifruits in Guizhou Province during low-temperature storage, the composition of kiwifruit fungal communities in different producing areas was compared by high-throughput sequencing technology, and the post-harvest infection diseases were analyzed in combination with the rainfall during flowering, young fruit and harvest periods. The results showed that Ascomycota was the dominant phylum, Botrytis, Fusarium, and Diaporthe were the main dominant genera. Principal component analysis results showed that ‘Guichang’ and ‘Hongyang’ cultivated in Guizhou Province had similar fungal community structures and diversity. Combined with local meteorological conditions, it should be presumed that the diversity of kiwifruit fungi in Guizhou Province is related to rainfall. Rainfall is inversely proportional to the diversity of kiwifruit fungi fruit, and is proportional to the relative abundance of decayed kiwifruit pathogenic fungi for storage. Heavy rainfall could increase the probability of kiwifruit infection. The findings of this study could provide theoretical support for kiwifruit infection control, postharvest storage, and other related fields in Guizhou Province.

    This study aims to improve the quality and digestibility of sorghum noodles by adding green tea powder. The effects of different additional levels of green tea powder on the thermomechanical properties, cooking quality, texture properties, sensory properties, microstructure, and starch digestibility of sorghum noodles were studied. Results revealed that the quality of sorghum noodles was significantly improved after adding green tea powder. Green tea powder contents increased, while the formation time and stabilization time of sorghum dough increased markedly. Compared with sorghum noodles without green tea powder, the cooking loss and breaking rate of sorghum noodles with 2% green tea powder decreased significantly from 9.19% and 6.67% to 8.57% and 3.33%, respectively, and the surface microstructure of sorghum noodles was relatively close. Furthermore, green tea powder decreased the rate of in vitro starch digestion markedly, and the estimated glycemic index (eGI) was reduced from 58.91 to 54.60 with the addition of green tea powder at 2%, which could lead to the increase of resistant starch (RS) and the decrease of rapidly digestible starch (RDS). In a word, the appropriate addition of green tea powder may be beneficial to stabilize the textural quality and reduce the rate of starch digestion of sorghum noodles.

    The effects of different calcium contents on the nutritional quality and antioxidant activity of germinated mung beans were studied. The calcium concentrations were 0.5, 2.0, and 5.0 mmol/L, respectively. Results showed that 2 mmol/L calcium chloride could significantly promote the growth of mung bean sprouts and increase the contents of free amino acids, soluble sugar, total phenols, total flavonoids, and ascorbic acid. The contents of total phenols, total flavonoids, and ascorbic acid were significantly positively correlated with DPPH free radical scavenging ability and total reducing ability. The correlation results showed that the antioxidant capacity was mainly related to the content of phenolic substances and ascorbic acid. Therefore, it was recommended to choose mung bean sprouts spraying with 2 mmol/L calcium chloride and germinating for 4 days. At this time, mung bean sprouts had high antioxidant substances and antioxidant capacity, which was most beneficial to the human body.

    In order to develop new varieties of cream cheese and explore the ripening mechanism of cream cheese. The sensory, physical and chemical, protease activity, total number of lactic acid bacteria and protein decomposition amount of cheese were measured at different ripening stages. Solid phase microextraction gas chromatography mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) was adopted to study changes to flavor substances at 0, 10, and 20 d. The results showed that during the fermentation of cream cheese, both pH and water content decreased gradually, whereas protein decomposition and total free amino acids tended to increase. At the same time, protease activity and the total number of lactic acid bacteria increased first and then decreased gradually. The results of SPME-GC-MS analysis showed that 18, 28 and 16 volatile flavor substances were respectively identified after 0, 10 and 20 d of fermentation. The volatile substances were significantly different in different fermentation stages, and the sample of 10 d fermentation was most abundant in flavor substances. Finally, using partial least squares discriminant analysis, aroma activity value, and variable importance for the projection (VIP) analysis, it was concluded that the key flavor substances in cream cheese fermentation were 2-heptanone, acetoin, 2-undecanone, butyl decyl lactone, 2,3-butanediol, butyl dodecalactone, decanoic acid, benzoic acid, eicosane, 2-decyl ketone, caproic acid, trans-9-octadecyl alcohol, limonene, isovaleric acid, and phenylacetaldehyde.

    As a natural, novel food preservative, natamycin has an effective and safe inhibitory effect on fungi in baking foods. Different concentrations of natamycin were applied to the cake′s surface preservative treatment, and natamycin′s antimicrobial effect and function in cake storage and preservation were investigated. To further investigate the optimal ratio of natamycin and potassium sorbate on the surface of the cake, the three most common preservatives in baked goods were chosen for comparison. According to the results, 300-400 mg/kg of natamycin has the best microbiological inhibition in cakes. The solution of natamycin with concentration of 0.4 g/kg and potassium sorbate with concentration of 8 g/kg can increase the cake′s shelf life to over ten days. Actual production and application cost analysis revealed that compound use of natamycin and potassium sorbate in cakes could result in cost savings, and effective inhibition of bacteria and mold growth.

    To investigate the change patterns of aroma components and characteristics of ‘Chardonnay’ dry white wine from the Eastern Foot of Helan Mountain during fermentation, the volatile compounds and olfactory profiles of wine samples were analyzed using the headspace solid-phase microextraction gas-chromatographic mass-spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) technique and quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) method. The results showed that the total amount of aroma components, the contents of higher alcohols, fatty acids, and isoprenoids increased as the fermentation proceeded, reaching the maximum at the end of fermentation. The total amount of esters got the highest value on the 10th day and decreased slightly when the fermentation terminated. The concentrations of aldehydes and ketones increased to the peak on the 6th day and then decreased steadily. The aroma of grape juice was described as sweety, which was gradually transferred into stronger flavors of pear, apple, peach, melon, pineapple, banana, citrus, lemon, honey, nut, and acacia flower. The highest sensory scores of peach, melon, honey, nut, and citrus were registered on the 8th day, which of pear, apple, pineapple, banana, and lemon were on the 10th day, and that was at the end of fermentation for acacia flower. This study provides a theoretical basis for the regulation of aroma components and characteristics of Chardonnay dry white wine.

Results showed that the hardness and chewiness of the three kinds of air-dried intestine were as follows: steamed air-dried sausage > microwave air-dried sausage>water-cooked air-dried sausage, and there were significant differences between them (P<0.05). The lightness value (L*), redness value (a*), and yellowness value (b*) were as follows: boiled and air-dried sausage>microwave air-dried sausage>steamed and air-dried sausage, and there was a significant difference between the L* values (P<0.05). The residual amount of nitrite was between 0.03-0.07 mg/kg, respectively. In addition, a total of 62 volatile flavor compounds were detected, and 32, 34, and 37 volatile flavor compounds were detected in the microwave, steamed, and boiled air-dried sausage, respectively. A total of 15 volatile flavor compounds with OAV≥1 were detected. The OAV values of wheatgrass methyl in 3 treatment groups were all above 6 959 and had an anise-like aroma, which was an important component of the flavor of the air-dried sausage. In addition, (Z)-β-basilene with a citrus-like aroma was a unique volatile flavor substance in boiled air-dried sausage. 3-carene with a lemon-like aroma produced a unique flavor in steamed air-dried sausage. In three thermal processing methods, microwaves can effectively improve the color of air-dried sausage, steaming can retain the flavor substances of air-dried sausage to a greater extent, and boiling can improve the sensory quality of the air-dried sausage.

    With the unique flavour and improved nutritional value, vegetable noodles have gained popularity among consumers. However, only a few studies have been carried out on changes in vegetable noodles during the storage process, mainly focusing on basic physicochemical indicators such as colour, sensory quality, and textural properties of vegetable noodles. In this study, based on the analysis of the changes in colour and textural properties of four vegetable noodles including turmeric, carrot, purple kale, and spinach noodles, during the storage process, a systematic qualitative and quantitative analysis of metabolite changes was performed using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS) combined with non-targeted metabolomics, and various multifactorial analysis methods were used to analyse and screen out the significantly different metabolites in each vegetable noodles during the storage. Results showed that the L* values of the four vegetable noodles tended to decrease, the b* values tended to increase, and the a* values did not change significantly as the storage time increased. The hardness of the vegetable noodles gradually increased, while the elasticity gradually increased and decreased finally. Both the adhesiveness and chewiness increased. Among the screened 24 low-molecular-chemical-substances with significant differences, polyphenols, flavonoids, and fatty acids showed significant down-regulation, while some phytosterols, vitamins, and alkaloids showed significant up-regulation. This study can provide references for the production and quality control of new vegetable noodles.

    Taking olive kernel red peel as raw material, ethanol-water solution was used to extract natural flavonoids with strong activity, and the optimal extraction conditions were obtained through one-factor extraction experiments and response surface experiments, and the antioxidant activity of the extract was determined by ascorbic acid as a control, and the extracted active substances were identified by thermo ultra-high performance liquid chromatography system. Results showed that the optimal extraction conditions for olive kernel red flavonoids (FRSOK) were an extraction temperature of 57.61 ℃, an ethanol volume fraction of 75%, an extraction time of 35 min, and a predicted total flavonoid content of 243.53 μg/mL. Natural FRSOK in ·OH scavenging ability was strong, followed by DPPH free radical scavenging ability, and ·O-2 scavenging ability was the weakest. Through analysis and comparison, it was determined that the red peel of olive kernel contained 21 kinds of flavonoids, including neohesperidin, quercetin, kaempferol, isorhamnetin, etc., and their respective derivatives. Therefore, FRSOK can be applied to the food industry as an antioxidant product or its substitute, with good application prospects.

    The most suitable lactic acid bacteria and the combination for the fermentation transformation of ginsenoside Rg3 were screened. The fermentation process was optimized by single factor experiment and response surface methodology, and the possible bioconversion pathway of the ginsenosides during the fermentation was elucidated. The results showed that Lactobacillus paracasei B16NY2107 and B04WI2501 at the inoculation ratio of 1∶1 had the best fermentation effect. The optimal conditions were 39.0 ℃, pH 5.0, 7.5% addition of sucrose (as carbon source), and fermentation time of 9 d. The concentration of Rg3 reached (92.981±3.188) mg/L under the optimal conditions, which was 14.86 times higher than that before fermentation. The possible bioconversion pathways of ginsenosides during fermentation were consistent with the change trend of the contents of ginsenosides, which might be five pathways: Rb1/Rb2→Rd→Rg3, Rb1/Re/Rg1→Rh1, Rb1/Re→CK, Rb1→Rd→F2, Rb1/ Rc→Rd→Rg1→Rh2. The study proved that the fermentation of lactic acid bacteria could effectively transform rare ginsenoside Rg3, laid a foundation for ginseng deep processing and provided a reference for the development and utilization of ginseng fermentation products.

The physicochemical analysis showed that the saccharification and esterification fluctuated significantly between samples. Correlation analysis showed that Lichtheimia and Dipodascus were both positively correlated with the liquefaction and saccharification of Daqu (P<0.05), and Dipodascus was also significantly correlated with water content (P<0.05). Wallemia had a significant positive correlation with the fermentation power of Daqu (P<0.05), while Rhizomucor was not conducive to the formation of the fermentation power of medium-temperature Daqu in Hetao (P<0.05). At the same time, two yeasts were isolated from the samples, which were identified as Saccharomycosis fibuligera. To sum up, the medium-temperature Daqu in Hetao area were rich in fungus and a certain number of culturable S. fibuligera, and there was obvious correlation between some fungal genera and the physicochemical indexes of Daqu. By exploring the correlation between the fungal community structure and physicochemical characteristics of Hetao medium-temperature Daqu, we can provide reference for the standardized production of this kind of Baijiu-making Daqu.

    In this experiment, Zanthoxylum bungeanum was used as the research object. The residues of metiramin, pyraclosrtrobin and its metabolite ethylene thiourea (ETU) in Zanthoxylum bungeanum during the growth and development were detected by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) and gas chromatography coupled with flame photometric detector (GC-FPD). Results showed that the sensitivity and accuracy of the established method were good, the mean recoveries were 81%-107%, the relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 1.0%-9.5%, and the limits of quantitation (LOQs) were 0.05 mg/kg, which could meet the requirements of residue detection in Zanthoxylum bungeanum. According to good agricultural practices, after the application of metiramin and pyraclosrtrobin on Zanthoxylum bungeanum, with the growth and development, both metiramin and pyraclosrtrobi were rapidly digested, and the digestibility rates of fresh Zanthoxylum bungeanum were 95.3%-97.7% and 94.1%-96.9%, respectively after 28 days of application. Processing fresh Zanthoxylum bungeanum into dry could significantly reduce the residue of metiramin in dry Zanthoxylum bungeanum, while pyraclosrtrobin had a significant enrichment effect in dry Zanthoxylum bungeanum. The residual levels of metiramin and pyraclosrtrobin in Zanthoxylum bungeanum were within the acceptable range of acute and chronic dietary exposure risks to human health. The research results provided technical support and reference for the quality and safety production, monitoring and consumption guidance of Zanthoxylum bungeanum in China.

After ethanol extraction, the sample was absorbed with magnesium sulfate anhydrous, centrifuged on a high-speed refrigerated centrifuge and evaporated to dryness on a rotary evaporator. Finally, it was redissolved with methanol + acetonitrile, 5 mmol/L ammonium formate solution + acetonitrile + methanol as the mobile phase, gradient eluted, the flow rate was 0.2 mL/min, the column temperature was 35 ℃, and the injection volume was 2 μL. The extract was separated by a chromatographic column, and multi-reaction analysis was carried out by a four-pole mass spectrometer in the mode of electrospray spray anion. Within the range of experimental concentration, the standard curves of five PG were linear, and the correlation coefficient (R2) was greater than 0.999. At the concentration levels of 10, 20, and 40 ng/mL, the recoveries of the five PG were 96%-109%, the relative standard deviation was 0.26%-1.81%, and the detection limit and quantitative limit were 1.0 and 2.5 μg/kg. This method and the method reported in the literature were used to extract and analyze the samples and samples after spiking. The comparison of test data showed that this method had a better extraction effect, and the recovery rate of spiking was far higher than the method reported in the literature, which further proved the feasibility of this method. The results showed that the method was scientific, accurate, and easy to operate, and it could completely meet the analysis and determination of five PG in onion.

    Portable near-infrared spectroscopy was used to collect the spectrum of the blueberry drying process. The “Lanfeng” blueberry was taken as the research object, establishing a rapid detection model of moisture content in the blueberry hot air drying process. The principal component analysis (PCA) was used to qualitatively monitor the drying stage of blueberries. This study analyzed and compared the selection of characteristic variables of the blueberry infrared spectrum by competitive adaptive reweighting sampling (CARS), moving window partial least squares (MWPLS), and Monte Carlo uninformative variable elimination (MCUVE), evaluated the PLS model by error parameters such as correlation coefficient (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE), and the optimal near-infrared prediction model of blueberry moisture content was obtained. Each characteristic variable selection algorithm could improve model fitting degree and prediction ability based on reducing the wavelength variables involved in modelling. Among them, the CARS-PLS modelling was selected, and a total of 11 characteristic variables were selected to participate in the modelling. The model correction correlation coefficient was 0.951 0, the corrected root mean square error was 0.042 9, the prediction correlation coefficient was 0.946 5, and the prediction root mean square error was 0.047 3. The moisture content of the blueberry drying process established based on the CARS characteristic variable selection method could effectively carry out accurate, rapid and stable nondestructive testing of moisture content of the blueberry drying process, provide theoretical and technical support for the drying characteristics of fruits and vegetables and related food development research, and promote the application of near-infrared nondestructive testing of fruits and vegetables to other quality indexes.

    This work proposed an optimized high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the efficient detection of 7 kinds of synthetic colorants in preserved fruits, and further analyzed the risk of their illegal addition. The edible parts of the sample were smashed. Synthetic colorants were extracted by ultrasound with ethanol/ammonia alkaline solution in a water bath at 60 ℃. Then, they were purified with a polyamide solid phase extraction technique and detected at a fixed single wavelength of 428 nm. The detection limits for 7 kinds of synthetic colorants were both 0.2 mg/kg, and their correlation coefficients were above 0.999 0 in the range of 0.1-50 μg/mL. The average recoveries were between 82.1%-96.6% and the relative standard deviations (RSD) were between 3.71%-8.35%. This proposed method had the advantages of high accuracy and sensitivity, simple operation, and strong universality, which was suitable for the efficient large-batch detection of various synthetic colorants in preserved fruits. Based on these, this method was used to detect many batches of commercially preserved fruit samples. Results showed that synthetic colorants such as tartrazine, amaranth, carmine, and sunset yellow, were detected frequently, and illegal addition behaviors still could be observed. Notably, market supervision should be strengthened for the food safety of preserved fruits and the protection of human health.

    Aroma components, as an important index to evaluate the quality of fruit juice, are easily affected by various factors during the processing. The fine particles suspended in fruit juice are called cloudy particles, which are essential to maintain and improve the natural “primary” fruit flavor during juice processing. Whereas the interaction between cloudy particles and volatile substances also strongly affects the release of aroma substances. This paper summarized the composition and structure of cloudy particles, the interaction between cloudy particles and flavor compounds in the key operation for juice processing, the influence of different processing units on cloudy particles and flavor, and the interaction mechanism among cloudy particles and volatile substances. Meanwhile, the advantages and mechanisms of the new non-thermal processing technology in retaining and enhancing the aroma of fruit juice were explained. The purpose of this review was to expand the research on cloudy particle systems in fruit juice, analyze the interaction mechanism among polyphenols, proteins, and volatile substances, and explore the interaction law between processing technologies and cloudy particle systems to promote green processing of fruit resources and enhance the flavor of fruit juice products. However, it is very challenging to accurately detect the quantitative effects of various factors on the retention and release of flavor substances in the cloudy particles. Therefore, to improve the flavor quality of fruit juice, it will be looking forward to more in-depth studies on the cloudy particle system of fruit juice.

    Pickled tea is an anaerobically fermented tea with a distinct microbial community and numerous antioxidant substances. The primary substances generated during pickled tea fermentation are yeasts and lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which improve the antioxidant capacity and flavor of pickled tea by producing various organic acids. Yeasts and LABs also provide their own antioxidative properties. Organic acids create acidic fermentation conditions, thereby reducing the hydrolysis of EGCG and maintaining stable polyphenol levels. Moreover, anaerobic fermentation promotes high levels of gallic acid accumulation and the synthesis of novel antioxidant components. This article summarizes recent research into anaerobic fermentation and the antioxidant components of pickled tea and provides a reference for further investigations into the antioxidant substances in pickled tea.
