Abstract Undersized crawfish have little economic value and are often discarded. Producing crawfish minced meat (CMM) from undersized crawfish and using an appropriate freezing technique may enable an economically viable market. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of the energy removal rate using two techniques, cryogenic freezing (CF) and air blast freezing (BF), on CMM’s quality during frozen storage. CMM was separated into two batches; one batch was cryogenically frozen with liquid nitrogen and the other batch was frozen with an air blast freezer. CMM batches were frozen and stored at − 18 °C. They were analyzed for moisture content, color, pH, and lipid oxidation during 180 days of storage. The CMM yield was 64.67% of the total crawfish weight. Cryogenic freezing achieved the highest freezing rate. Cryogenically frozen CMM showed 22% less lipid oxidation than CMM frozen by air blast freezing at 180 days of storage. This study showed that CMM could be mechanically produced from undersized crawfish and freezing techniques with high energy removal rate could better maintain quality attributes for CMM during frozen storage.

Meat export is a major industry in Australia, and meat packaging and freezing is an energy intensive activity, requiring an objective technical investigation. This study was undertaken in order to assess the relative merits of plate and air blast freezing methods used in industry. To describe the efficiency and the technical superiority of one method over the other, in this paper, the details of an experimental study involving time-temperature measurement of meat boxes inside a plate freezer and a blast freezer under normal working conditions are provided. For the configurations used in this study, it is shown that the freezing time is much shorter for plate freezing, and also there is a much smaller variation in freezing time of various boxes compared to those for blast freezing. The smaller variation in freezing time of various boxes in each batch would help preserve the quality of meat being frozen. Also, it is explained that despite the initial higher capital cost of plate freezing, the total cost over the life of the equipment is much smaller for plate freezing compared to blast freezing.

Feedstock degradation is a major source of financial risk for cellulosic biorefineries. To assess the impact of the feedstock loss and quality during storage, this study explored interactions of moisture content and temperature on the degradation of biomass. Specifically, this study evaluated the dry matter loss and compositional change of corn stover during storage conditions common at industrial biomass storage facilities. This lab-scale study allowed for increased measurement precision associated with quantifying how biomass degradation changes the quality of stored biomass. Results of this work define stable biomass storage moisture content of less than 20% in which there is low risk for degradation over time. At moisture levels above 20%, biomass degradation will be prevalent with hemicellulose being the most degraded fraction of the feedstock. Additionally, results demonstrate that temperature has a minimal impact on biomass degradation in non-frozen storage conditions.

This study evaluated the effects on the internal quality of eggs of various storage environments through which eggs may pass between being laid and being consumed. Commercial eggs (N = 648) from Dekalb White hens were used. Treatments consisted of T1: 28 days at 4 °C; T2: 28 days at 20 °C; T3: 7 days at room temperature (27 °C ± 2 °C) (humidity 55%) and 21 days at 4 °C; T4: 7 days at room temperature and 21 days at 20 °C; T5: 14 days at room temperature and 14 days at 4 °C; T6: 14 days at room temperature and 14 days at 20 °C; T7: 21 days at room temperature and 7 days at 4 °C; T8: 21 days at room temperature and 7 days at 20 °C; and T9: 28 days at room temperature. The characteristics that were evaluated consisted of Haugh unit (HU), yolk index (YI), colour (L*, a* and b*), albumen pH, yolk pH and lipid oxidation. Eggs stored 28 days were darker (L*), and had greater yolk pH and lipid oxidation than fresh eggs. Eggs stored under T1 and T3 conditions had greater HU and YI than eggs stored in the other environments. The albumin pH of eggs stored at room temperature (T9) was highest of the treatments. Yellowness was increased in eggs stored under T4, T6, T8, and T9 conditions. Eggs should be stored under refrigeration as this promotes maintenance of internal quality and mitigates negative effects of previous storage conditions.

Abstract The freezing tolerance of the strawberries related to the application of various pretreatment methods combined with air blast (AB) or cryomechanical (CM) freezing was investigated during 24 weeks of frozen storage. Osmotic pretreatments with lemon juice (LJ) solution and crystallized sucrose (CS) exerted significant protective effects on color stability of frozen-thawed strawberries. As compared with no pretreatment, the combined pretreatment using sodium alginate (SA) or low methoxyl pectin (LMP) vacuum-infusion (VI) and subsequent calcium dipping for frozen strawberries reduced firmness loss by 11.5–34.2% and reduced drip loss by 84.6–91.7% depending on specific VI solutions and calcium concentration, while SA or LMP VI alone showed no significant improvement in the retention of texture. CM freezing not only provoked significant reductions in overall freezing time and moisture loss compared to AB freezing, but also resulted in minimizing color and texture instability of frozen strawberries when combined with the three-step pretreatment process.

Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis L.) has a high economic value, both as an export commodity and for local consumption. In Indonesia, especially in North Sulawesi the total catch of skipjack tuna is high. The purpose of this research was to determine the quality of the skipjack tuna sold in two traditional markets, namely (A) Pasar Pinasungkulan Karombasan and (B) Pasar Bersehati, Manado. The moisture content of skipjack tuna sold in the market (B) does not meet the SNI quality requirement (max 60% moisture content of smoked fish). The pH value of the skipjack tuna  in market A and B still meets the quality requirements during storage in room temperature. Based on the results of moisture content and pH value, it can be concluded that the skipjack tuna purchased from Market A was still good for consumption up to 2 days storage in room temperature whereas fish from market B was not safe for consumption. Ikan cakalang (Katsuwonus pelamis L) mempunyai nilai ekonomis tinggi, baik sebagai komoditi ekspor maupun konsumsi  lokal. Di Indonesia khususnya perairan Sulawesi utara produksi ikan cakalang termasuk tinggi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui mutu dari ikan cakalang asap yang dijual di dua pasar tradisional, yaitu (A) Pasar Pinasungkulan Karombasan dan (B) Pasar Bersehati, Manado. Kadar air ikan cakalang asap yang dijual di pasar (B) tidak memenuhi syarat mutu SNI, yaitu 60% kadar air untuk ikan asap. Nilai pH ikan cakalang asap yang dijual di pasar A dan B selama penyimpanan suhu ruang masih memenuhi syarat mutu ikan ikan asap.

The paper shows results of analysis of influences of oscillating parameters of drying on measuring wood moisture content in the kiln, rate and quality of drying. For this analysis, we used a conventional drying cycle, a cycle with oscillating equilibrium moisture content (EMC), and a cycle with oscillating temperatures. A special software tool was created for managing the oscillations. It was shown that oscillations of EMC and temperatures result in cyclic changes in wood MC, but also in the additional inaccuracies of MC measurements in the kiln. The drying process of the cycle with oscillating EMC lasted somewhat shorter than the other two cycles. Drying quality was the same or better in the cycles with oscillations as compared to the conventionally dried cycle, and the smaller tensions in the wood confirmed the activation of the additional mechano-sorptive effect during cyclic changes of MC in surface layers.
