Study on acrylamide accumulation in the model system based on animal raw materials depending on thermal treatment regimes
Get PDFThe aim of the investigation was to study an effect of thermal treatment parameters on the content of reducing sugars, amino acids and acrylamide in the meat model system depending on the thermal treatment regime. The authors studied an influence of the reaction of melanoidine formation on the concentration of amino acids and reducing sugars at different thermal treatment regimes and established a decrease in the total amino acid content by 7 % upon the standard sterilization regime and by 11 % when increasing the temperature or duration of thermal treatment. It was found that at the same temperature with an increase in duration of thermal treatment up to 50 min., the acrylamide level increased by 1.6 times. Exposure of the model samples to a temperature of 120 °С for 50 min. had the highest effect on the level of acrylamide accumulation compared to the traditional sterilization regime of canned foods for child nutrition and the regime with an increased temperature of up to 130 °С. The obtained data will allow developing new meat products with the reduced content of unsafe components for nutrition in early childhood.The aim of the investigation was to study an effect of thermal treatment parameters on the content of reducing sugars, amino acids and acrylamide in the meat model system depending on the thermal treatment regime.

АНАЛИЗ ЖИРНОКИСЛОТНОГО СОСТАВА СЫВОРОТКИ КРОВИ ЛАБОРАТОРНЫХ КРЫС С МОДЕЛЬЮ ГИПЕРЛИПИДЕМИИ ПРИ ПРИМЕНЕНИИ ФУНКЦИОНАЛЬНОГО ПИЩЕВОГО ПРОДУКТА
Get PDFA special area in the rapidly growing range of food products is occupied by specialized and functional products, especially for certain categories of citizens. In addition to confirming their biocorrective properties, it’s necessary to balance protein, fat and carbohydrates contents as well as the availability of essential nutrients. The developed meat product based on porcine hearts and aorta was characterized by a high protein content (17.53±0.95%), with a low fat content (3.82±0.13%), the atherogenic index was 0.43. According to in vivo study results, it was shown that the introduction of developed product during 42 days into the diet of hyperlipidemic rats lead to a decrease in the relative content of saturated fatty acids by 21.1%(P<0.05), mainly due to palmitic fatty acid reduction by 42.0% (P<0.05) compared with the control. The observed modifications of serum fatty acid composition resulted in the reduction of atherogenic index by 43.3% (P<0.05). The revealed positive dynamics of lipid metabolism recovery in hyperlipidemic rats makes it possible to recommend the developed product as a component of diet therapy, concomitant to the main treatment, for persons with risk of cardiovascular diseases, in particular, due to dyslipidemias.Особое место в интенсивно разрастающемся ассортименте пищевой продукции занимают продукты специализированного и функционального назначения, в том числе для отдельных категорий граждан. Помимо подтверждения их биокорригирующих свойств важна их сбалансированность по белкам, жирам и углеводам, наличие эссенциальных нутриентов. Разработанные консервы фаршевые на основе сердец и аорт свиней характеризовались высоким содержанием белка (17,53±0,95%), при достаточно низком содержании жира (3,82±0,13%), индекс атерогенности составил всего 0,43. В эксперименте in vivo было показано, что внесение консервов фаршевых в течение 42 суток в рацион крыс с моделью алиментарной гиперлипидемии способствовало снижению относительного содержания насыщенных жирных кислот на 21,1% (Р<0,05), преимущественно за счет уменьшения содержания пальмитиновой жирной кислоты на 42,0% (Р<0,05). Мононенасыщенные жирные кислоты также были снижены на 26,9% (Р<0,05). Выявленная положительная динамика восстановления липидного обмена у крыс с гиперлипидемией позволяет рекомендовать разработанный продукт в качестве компонента диетотерапии, сопутствующей к основному лечению, для лиц, состоящих в группе риска развития сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний, в частности, за счет выявленных дислипидемий.
SEARCH FOR ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF NATURAL PLANT ANTIOXIDANTS FOR FOOD INDUSTRY
Get PDFAccording to the data of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, global food losses are about one third of their total output, mainly due to spoilage. Therefore, a search for safe methods of shelf life extension is an important task, especially for products for specialized nutrition. According to literature data, natural antioxidants can be alternative to existing preservatives due to its ability to inhibit oxidation of the main nutrients. Pulp, seeds and peel of quince, apple «Simirenko», feijoa, persimmon, Jerusalem artichoke, white, red and yellow onion were objects of the study.

STUDY OF FATTY ACID COMPOSITION OF MILK FOR CHEESE PRODUCTION
Get PDFThe article shows that the studied samples of raw milk in terms of composition (mass fraction of fat, protein, lactose and milk solids-not-fat) met the criteria of suitability for cheese, and its physic-chemical properties (titratable acidity, density, freezing point) were within acceptable limits. Moreover, rennet sample corresponded to the first and second classes. It was proved that the number of spores of lactating fermenting microorganisms met the requirements for milk for the production of any kind of cheese. It was established that the fatty acid composition of raw cow’s milk used to produce cheeses at various enterprises varied significantly. The data indicate the variability of the content of all groups of fatty acids — low molecular weight, saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated. As a result of gas chromatography studies using the chromatographic complex «Chromos GX-1000» with a flame ionization detector and a CP 88 quartz capillary column — Sil 88 for FAME100 m × 0.25 mm × 0.2 µm, it was found that the largest absolute fluctuations were for saturated (± 7.03 % of the average value) and monounsaturated fatty acids (± 3.77 % of the average value). Absolute fluctuations in the group of low molecular weight fatty acids amounted to ± 2.62 %, and in the group of polyunsaturated — ± 1.02 % of the average value. The calculation of the relative deviation showed that the most varied groups were the ones of low molecular weight fatty acids (± 28.40 rel.%) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (± 25.11 rel.%). At the same time, a relatively high content of certain fatty acids: myristoleic, palmitic, palmitoleic and low levels of stearic and oleic fatty acids, was revealed in individual milk samples.The article shows that the studied samples of raw milk in terms of composition (mass fraction of fat, protein, lactose and milk solids-not-fat) met the criteria of suitability for cheese, and its physic-chemical properties (titratable acidity, density, freezing point) were within acceptable limits.

BIOCONVERSION OF SECONDARY PRODUCTS OF PROCESSING OF GRAIN CEREALS CROPS
Get PDFA method has been developed for the production of organic ingredients from secondary products resulting from the high-quality grinding of triticale and wheat into flour, which involves the enzymatic action of amylolytic enzymes to release starch polysaccharides while preserving the native properties of dietary fibers and biologically active substances associated with them. To a large extent, the features of the properties of the obtained ingredients are due to the number and composition of the components of dietary fiber of grain, as well as the morphological features of their structure. It is shown that the viscosity of aqueous colloidal systems at a concentration of soluble dietary fiber of the ingredient 0.5 % increases 11 times; at a concentration of 1.0 % — 30 times, forming a viscous gel-like structure. This allows them to be used for gelling, thickening and stabilization of aquatic food systems. The use of ingredients with a high content of NLP in baking is possible only taking into account their water absorption capacity. A method for the enzymatic modification of secondary products of processing of grain triticale was developed. On the basis of the study of the kinetics and efficiency of the effect of proteolytic and cellulolytic enzyme preparations (EP) and their compositions, optimal conditions for enzymatic modification (the EP dosage is 0.5…0.75 units of PA/g of bran, 0.3…0.4 units of CA/g of bran, the optimum temperature is 40–50 °С, pH is 5.0 and 3.5, the duration of reactions is 1.5 hours) have been determined. The use of cellulolytic EP allowed to increase the amount of reducing substances and soluble protein by 1.5–2.5 times in comparison with the control sample. The biomodified bran obtained using the MEC «Shearzyme 500 L» + «Neutrase 1.5 MG» and «Viscoferm L» + «Distizym Protacid Extra» has a high degree of hydrolysis of non-starch polysaccharides and proteins, is characterized by a certain ratio of high-, medium-, low-molecular peptides and amino acids, has different functional and technological properties. They can be used in the production of a wide range of general-purpose, functional and treatmentand-prophylactic food products.A method has been developed for the production of organic ingredients from secondary products resulting from the high-quality grinding of triticale and wheat into flour, which involves the enzymatic action of amylolytic enzymes to release starch polysaccharides while preserving the native properties of dietary fibers and biologically active substances associated with them.
