ABSTRACT High pressure processing (HPP) and treatment with the essential oil extract carvacrol had synergistic inactivation effects on Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes in fresh ground chicken meat. Seven days after HPP treatment at 350 MPa for 10 min, Salmonella treated with 0.75% carvacrol was reduced to below the detection limit (1 log CFU/g) at 4°C and was reduced by ca. 6 log CFU at 10°C. L. monocytogenes was more sensitive to these imposed stressors, remaining below the detection limit during storage at both 4 and 10°C after HPP treatment at 350 MPa for 10 min following treatment with 0.45% carvacrol. However, pressure-injured bacterial cells may recover and lead to an overestimation of process lethality when a selective medium is used without proper justification. For HPP-stressed Salmonella, a 1- to 2-log difference was found between viable counts on xylose lysine Tergitol 4 agar and aerobic plate counts, but no significant difference was found for HPP-stressed L. monocytogenes between polymyxin–acriflavine–lithium chloride–ceftazidime–esculin–mannitol (PALCAM) agar and aerobic plate counts. HPP-induced bacterial injury and its recovery have been investigated by comparing selective and nonselective agar plate counts; however, few investigations have addressed this issue in the presence of essential oil extracts, taking into account the effect of high pressure and natural antimicrobial compounds (e.g., carvacrol) on bacterial survival in various growth media. Use of selective media may overestimate the efficacy of bacterial inactivation in food processing evaluation and validation studies, and the effects of various media should be systematically investigated.

ABSTRACTThe study investigated the effects of high pressure processing (HPP; 600 MPa for 3 min) and hot water (HW; 75°C for 15 min) pasteurization on the inactivation of inoculated Listeria monocytogenes, natural populations of lactic acid bacteria, Pseudomonas spp., and coliforms in vacuum-packaged cooked sausages and their recovery during storage at 4 and 10°C for 35 days. Cooking sausages to an internal temperature of 72°C resulted in a >6-log reduction in numbers of inoculated L. monocytogenes. Storage at 4°C resulted in no significant difference (P > 0.05) in L. monocytogenes numbers in sausages pasteurized by either HPP or HW compared with unpasteurized control. However, at 10°C, L. monocytogenes numbers in unpasteurized control sausages increased to about 7 log CFU/g by day 35, whereas in HPP-pasteurized sausages, numbers remained below the detection limit for up to 21 days and then increased to 4.5 log CFU/g by day 35. HW pasteurization resulted in inhibition of L monocytogenes to below the detection limit throughout the 35-day storage at 10°C. Natural lactic acid bacteria populations were significantly reduced by HPP and HW pasteurization and continued to be significantly lower at the end of the 35-day storage. Unlike most studies that focus on HPP or HW treatment of postcooking surface contamination of meat with Listeria, this study examined the combined effect of cooking, HPP, and HW on raw meat with a high contamination level. This scenario is important in countries where raw meat supply and in-store refrigeration are a challenge. The results suggest that HPP and HW pasteurization could be used to successfully enhance the safety and shelf life of cooked sausages and that HW pasteurization (75°C) was more effective than HPP (600 MPa) to control L. monocytogenes.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of oregano essential oil (OEO) incorporated in Na-alginate edible films when applied to sliced ham inoculated with a cocktail of Listeria monocytogenes strains, with or without pretreatment by high pressure processing (HPP). Microbiological, physicochemical and sensory analyses (in Listeria-free slices) were performed, while, the presence/absence and the relative abundance of each Listeria strain, was monitored by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). The OEO incorporation in the films, caused approximately 1.5 log reduction in Listeria population at 8 and 12 °C at the end of the storage period, and almost 2.5 log reduction at 4 °C. The HPP treatment caused 1 log reduction to the initial Listeria population, while levels kept on decreasing throughout the storage for all the tested temperatures. The pH of the samples was higher in the cases where HPP was involved, and the samples were evaluated as less spoiled. Furthermore, the presence of OEO in the films resulted in color differences compared to the control samples, whilst the aroma of these samples was improved. In conclusion, the combined application of HPP and OEO edible films on the slices, led to a significant reduction or absence of the pathogen.

The objectives of the present study were to determine the influence of thermal and non-thermal processing procedures on in vitro ileal disappearance (IVID) of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) in chicken meat as dog foods using 2-step in vitro assays. In thermal processing experiments, IVID of DM and CP in chicken meat thermally processed at 70, 90, and 121 °C, respectively, with increasing processing time was determined. For non-thermal processing experiments, IVID of DM and CP in chicken meat processed by high-pressure, ultraviolet-light emitting diode (UV-LED), electron-beam, and gamma-ray was determined. Thermal processing of chicken meat at 70, 90, and 121 °C resulted in decreased IVID of CP (p < 0.05) as heating time increased. In non-thermal processing experiment, IVID of CP in chicken meat was not affected by high-pressure processing or UV-LED radiation. In vitro ileal disappearance of CP in electron-beam- or gamma-ray-irradiated chicken meat was not affected by the irradiation intensity. Taken together, ileal protein digestibility of chicken meat for dogs is decreased by thermal processing, but is minimally affected by non-thermal processing methods.

The Impact

This study investigated the impact of copigmentation with sinapic acid on the stability of anthocyanins in strawberry purees of three commercial cultivars (Camarosa, Rubygem, and Festival) after high-pressure processing (HPP; 600 MPa/5 min) and thermal processing (TP; 88°C/2 min) and during three months of refrigerated storage. Copigmentation did not have a significant effect on the stability of anthocyanins during processing with 14% to 30% degradation observed with no significant difference among cultivars or the processing technique. On the contrary, copigmentation significantly (p<0.05) improved the stability of anthocyanins in HPP samples during storage, most probably via the formation of intramolecular complexes which improve the resistance of anthocyanins to degradation. The anthocyanin contents of the copigmented HPP Camarosa, Rubygem, and Festival samples were, respectively, 42%, 40%, and 33% higher than their noncopigmented counterparts at the end of the three-month storage. Copigmentation also improved the retention of the total antioxidant capacity of the HPP-processed strawberry samples. The TPC of the copigmented HPP Camarosa, Rubygem, and Festival samples was, respectively, 66%, 65%, and 85% higher than that of the non-copigmented samples after three months of storage, whereas the respective ORAC values were 36.5%, 59.3%, and 35.3% higher. In contrast, copigmentation did not improve the stability of anthocyanins in TP samples, although significant (p<0.05) improvement in antioxidant capacity was also observed in TP samples due to the antioxidant nature of the copigment.

Enterocins A and B and sakacin K at 200 and 2,000 activity units (AU)/cm2, nisin at 200 AU/cm2, 1.8% potassium lactate, and a combination of 200 AU/cm2 of nisin and 1.8% lactate were incorporated into interleavers, and their effectiveness against Listeria monocytogenes spiked in sliced, cooked ham was evaluated. Antimicrobial-packaged cooked ham was then subjected to high-pressure processing (HPP) at 400 MPa. In nonpressurized samples, nisin plus lactate–containing interleavers were the most effective, inhibiting L. monocytogenes growth for 30 days at 6°C, with counts that were 1.9 log CFU/g lower than in the control after 3 months. In the other antimicrobial-containing interleavers, L. monocytogenes did not exhibit a lag phase and progressively grew to levels of about 8 log CFU/g. HPP of actively packaged ham slices reduced Listeria populations about 4 log CFU/g in all batches containing bacteriocins (i.e., nisin, sakacin, and enterocins). At the end of storage, L. monocytogenes levels in the bacteriocin-containing batches were the lowest, with counts below 1.51 log CFU/g. In contrast, HPP moderately reduced L. monocytogenes counts in the control and lactate batches, with populations gradually increasing to about 6.5 log CFU/g at the end of storage.
