Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the influence of dry heat cookery on beef flavor development of multiple beef muscles. Beef strip loins, top sirloin butts, tenderloins, shoulder clods, and chuck rolls were collected from USDA Low Choice carcasses (Small00-Small100 marbling; n = 20). Subprimals were wet aged in the dark for 21 d at 0 - 4℃. Following aging, subprimals were fabricated into 2.54 cm thick steaks of the following muscles: Gluteus medius (GM), Infraspinatus (IF), Longissimus lumborum (LL\), Psoas major (PM), Serratus ventralis (SV), and Triceps brachii (TB). Steaks were cooked to a medium degree of doneness (71℃) on one of four randomly assigned cooking methods: charbroiler grill (CHAR), clamshell grill (CLAM), convection oven (OVEN), or salamander broiler (SALA). Volatile compound analysis was conducted using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with solid phase microextraction. Data were analyzed as a split plot arrangement, with subprimal serving as the whole plot factor and cooking method serving as the subplot factor. The majority of compounds evaluated were impacted by the cooking method main effect (n = 21), followed by the cooking method × muscle interaction (n = 18), and muscle (n = 12). Charbroiler GM steaks produced the greatest amount of methional, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, and 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine compared to all other treatments (P < 0.05). Charbroiler and CLAM steaks produced the greatest concentration of methylpyrazine and trimethylpyrazine, as well as Strecker aldehydes (P < 0.05), indicating that more direct applications of heat increased Maillard product production. Steaks cooked using OVEN and SALA produced more lipid oxidation products, such as alkanes, aldehydes, and lipid derived ketones. Gluteus medius and SV steaks produced the greatest concentration of volatile compounds, with SV steaks producing an increased concentration of lipid derived compounds (P < 0.05) and GM steaks producing a greater concentration of Maillard products (P < 0.05). These data indicate that cooking method has a direct impact on the flavor profile produced by steaks.

AbstractThe purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate and determine the concentration of prostaglandin GF2α (PGF2α) and isoprostane 8‐iso‐PGF2α in plasma and intestine of specific pathogen-free (SPF) Leghorn chickens challenged with Eimeria maxima, with or without dietary supplementation of curcumin using solid‐phase microextraction and ultra‐performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. Eighty 1-day-old male SPF chickens were randomly allocated to one of four groups with four replicates (n = 5 chickens/replicate). Groups consisted of: (1) Control (no challenge), (2) Curcumin (no challenge), (3) Eimeria maxima (challenge), and (4) Eimeria maxima (challenge) + curcumin. At day 28 of age, all chickens in the challenge groups were orally gavaged with 40,000 sporulated E. maxima oocysts. No significant differences (P > 0.05) were observed in the groups regardless of the treatment or challenge with E. maxima. Enteric levels of both isoprostane 8‐iso‐PGF2α and PGF2α at 7 days and 9 days post-challenge were significantly increased (P < 0.01) compared to the non-challenge control chickens. Interestingly, the enteric levels of both isoprostane 8‐iso‐PGF2α and PGF2α at 7 days post-challenge were significantly reduced in chickens fed curcumin, compared to control chickens challenge with E. maxima. At 9 days post-challenge, only levels of isoprostane 8‐iso‐PGF2α in the enteric samples were significantly reduced in chickens challenged with E. maxima supplemented with curcumin, compared with E. maxima challenge chickens. No differences of isoprostane 8‐iso‐PGF2α or PGF2α were observed in plasma at both days of evaluation. Similarly, no significant differences were observed between the challenge control or chickens challenge with E. maxima and supplemented with curcumin at both times of evaluation. The results of this pilot study suggests that the antioxidant anti-inflammatory properties of curcumin reduced the oxidative damage and subsequent intestinal mucosal over-production of lipid oxidation products. Further studies to confirm and extend these results in broiler chickens are required.

ObjectivesTo compare lipid (malondialdehyde [MDA], 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal [HNE]) and protein (carbonyl content [CAR]) oxidation products and determine their influence on color stability in two bison muscles (longissimus lumborum [LL; color stable] and psoas major [PM; color labile]).Materials and MethodsA total of 10 longissimus lumborun (LL) and 10 psoas major (PM) from five A1 grade bison carcasses were obtained from a commercial slaughter plant within 48 h post-mortem. From each muscle, a 10-cm thick piece was removed and subsampled for evaluation of pH, MDA (by thiobarbituric acid assay), HNE (by ELISA) and CAR (by 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine). These measurements allowed the establishment of a baseline for the different oxidation products. The remainder of the muscles were cut into two equal portions, and each portion was vacuum-packaged and assigned to an ageing period of 7 and 14 d at 2°C. At the end of each ageing period, each muscle portion was removed from their packages, pH measured, and steaks obtained for sensory (muscle and discoloration scores) and instrumental color measurements (L*, a* and b*) over 5 d of retail display, and for estimation of MDA, HNE and CAR. After 5 d in retail display and following color and pH measurements the steaks were removed and collected for MDA, HNE and CAR determination. Data were analyzed as a completely randomized design with a split-split plot arrangement. Additionally, correlation and regression analysis were performed to identify the influence of the measured attributes on color.ResultsRegardless of the ageing time, LL showed greater redness and lower surface discoloration by instrumental (a* value; P = 0.04) and sensory (P < 0.01) color evaluation than PM at the end of the retail display. Furthermore, LL exhibited lower MDA, HNE and CAR content compared to PM (P < 0.05). A three-way interaction (muscle × ageing time × retail day display) was detected on MDA content, where PM presented a higher level of MDA with increasing ageing time and retail display than LL (P = 0.02). The pH was not different between LL and PM (P > 0.05) steaks.In both muscles, Pearson (r) and Spearman (rs) correlation coefficients indicated that MDA was the oxidation compound showing the highest correlation to a* (r = –0.78; P < 0.01) and discoloration (rs = 0.81; P < 0.01) scores, followed by a moderate correlation with HNE and CAR (r or rs < 0.7; P < 0.01). The pH did not exhibit correlation with color traits, except for lightness, in both muscles. For the stepwise regression analysis, the main variable entered into the equation for predicting a*, color and discoloration score in PM muscle was MDA with an R2 of 0.72, 0.75 and 0.78, respectively, while for LL muscle, MDA presented an R2 of 0.62, 0.68 and 0.66;, respectively. The pH, HNE and CAR only explained an additional 2% of the variation in those attributes.ConclusionThe results of color attributes corroborated that bison LL is a color-stable muscle due to the lower level of protein and lipid oxidation products developed during storage and retail display compared to PM muscle, which is considered color-labile muscle. The MDA seemed to have remarkable importance in the color deterioration than HNE and CAR, particularly in bison PM muscle.

Abstract An authentication study based on headspace solid-phase microextraction/GC-MS was performed with a set of 60 samples representative of traditional “Pasta di Gragnano protected geographical indication (PGI)” and the most common Italian pasta brands. Multivariate chemometric tools were used to classify the samples based on the chemical information provided from 20 target flavor compounds, including Maillard reaction and lipid oxidation products. Pattern recognition by principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis showed a natural grouping of samples according to the drying process adopted for their production (i.e., the traditional Cirillo method versus a high-temperature approach). Subsequently, soft independent modeling by class analogy (SIMCA) and unequal dispersed classes (UNEQ) were used to build class models at 95% confidence and 100% sensitivity levels (forced models) for predictive classification purposes. The good performance obtained from the models in terms of cross-validation efficiency (SIMCA, 57.01%; UNEQ, 86.60%; 100% for both forced models) highlighted that targeted analysis of flavor profiles could be used to assess the authenticity of Pasta di Gragnano PGI samples. Hence, the proposed method may help to protect Pasta di Gragnano PGI from label frauds by verifying whether samples comply with statements concerning drying process conditions as stated in the product specification.

The main goal of the present study was evaluating the effect of enriching meat products (cooked (C-SAU) and dry-cured sausages (D-SAU)) with monolayered (Mo) and multilayered (Mu) fish oil microcapsules on the profile of volatile compounds, with special interest in lipid oxidation markers. For that, Solid-Phase Microextraction (SPME) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) were used. Significant differences were found in the volatile compound profile between Mo and Mu, which was been reflected in the meat samples. Thus, in general, volatile compounds from lipid oxidation have shown higher abundance in Mo and C-SAU and D-SAU enriched with this type of microcapsule, indicating that the wall of Mu (chitosan-maltodextrine) might protect the encapsulated bioactive compounds more effectively than that of Mo (maltodextrine). However, this finding is not reflected in the results of previous studies evaluating the sensory perception and oxidation stability of C-SAU and D-SAU, but it should be considered since unhealthy oxidation products can be formed in the enriched meat products with Mo. Thus, the addition of Mu as an omega-3 vehicle for enriching meat products may be indicated.

The aim was to determine the quality parameters and oxidative stability of colour, lipids and proteins (formation of carbonyls) of vacuum packed lamb at a constant temperature of 2 °C ±1 °C up to 15 days post mortem. The suitability of lamb loin (longissimus lumborum) for ageing and optimal ageing period to obtain optimum sensory properties, especially tenderness and aroma was determined. A sample of 100 g lamb meat contains 23.48 g protein, 69.66 g water and 5.48 g fat. Lamb samples were the most tender after 11 days (both, sensory assessed and instrumentally measured – share force decreased by 61%) and had the best aroma after 15 days post mortem. In the meantime, the lamb became significantly brighter and more saturated (higher L*, a* and b* values), the content of secondary lipid oxidation products increased (1.7 times higher amount of malondialdehyde), and the content of protein carbonyls decreased to the initial value, despite an initial increase observed 11 days post mortem. We found that lamb loin is suitable piece for ageing; the optimal duration of ageing of loins is 15 days post mortem.

This study was designed to investigate the compounds in the different types of commercial aroma used to attract swiftlets in the birdhouse. Analysis of the volatile compounds is done on two types of commercial aroma, which is categorized as floor aroma (F1, F2, F3) and top aroma (T1, T2, T3) using SPME-GC-MS. As a result, F1, F2 and F3 shows the presence of major constituents like 2-heptanone (13.53%, 3.22% and 0.37% respectively) and 2-nonanone (0.83%, 2.02%, and 0.82% respectively) using DB-1ms while 2-heptanone (5.87%, 0.78% and 0.45% respectively) and methoxy-phenyl-oxime (11.50%, 11.84% and 0.20% respectively) using DB-wax. Major constituents detected using DB-1ms for T1, T2 and T3 are 1-(2-methoxy-1-methylethoxy)-2-propanol (36.49%, 16.23% and 3.06% respectively). Meanwhile, no similar compounds detected by DB-wax for sample T1, T2 and T3. The overall findings concluded that most of the formulation used in the commercial aroma contained strong odor-producing chemicals to attract swiftlets. More studies should be done on investigating the effects of the commercial aroma towards swiftlet also on aroma made from natural substances instead of chemically produced commercial aroma.

Abstract The objective of this study was to determine the impact of sous vide cookery followed by finishing on four dry heat cookery methods and two quality grades on beef volatile flavor compound production in beef strip loin steaks. Beef strip loins (n = 40, 20/grade) were procured from two USDA quality grades: upper 2/3rds of Choice and Select. Strip loins were aged for 21 d at 2 to 4°C. Following aging, strip loins were sliced into 2.54 cm steaks, vacuum packaged, and frozen at -20°C. Steaks were thawed, then cooked sous vide in a circulating water bath at 63.5°C for 1.5 h. Steaks were finished to a medium degree of doneness (71°C) on one of four cooking methods: charbroiler grill (CHAR), clamshell grill (CLAM), convection oven (OVEN), and salamander broiler (SALA). Steaks were immediately submerged into ice to stop cooking, vacuum packaged and frozen at -20°C until analysis. Volatile compounds (n = 73) were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and were selected from the Maillard reaction and lipid degradation pathways. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to observe the relationships between volatile compounds and consumer ratings of beef strip loin steaks. When PCA was conducted, principal component (PC) 1 represented 50.59% and PC 2 represented 29.76% of the variation. Salamander steaks of both quality grades were the most closely associated with flavor, tenderness, juiciness, and overall liking. Charbroiler steaks were the most closely related with Maillard products, especially pyrazines, sulfur containing compounds, and pyrroles. Oven steaks were more associated with compounds associated with lipid degradation, including hexanol, hexanal, and 2-pentylfuran. Clamshell steaks were negatively associated with consumer palatability traits, which was expected, due to the poor liking ratings from consumers. These data indicate cooking method can directly impact flavor of beef strip loin steaks, regardless of quality grade

SUMMARYA method for isolation, detection and quantification of cholesterol oxidation products based on solid phase extraction in combination with preparative HPLC and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry selected ion monitoring has been developed for dairy products. The isolation procedure had a high recovery and artifact formation was minimal, as shown by isotope labelling. The limits of detection ranged from 0.3 to 35 pg/μl of the isomeric forms of 7-hydroxycholesterol, 20α-hydroxycholesterol, the isomeric forms of cholesterol-5,6-epoxides, cholestanetriol, 25-hydroxycholesterol and 7-ketocholesterol corresponding to a limit of quantification of 2–6 ng oxysterol/g lipid in the dairy product, depending on the nature of the cholesterol oxidation product.
