Differentiation of Enterobacter sakazakii from closely related Enterobacter and Citrobacter species using fatty acid profiles

Capillary gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID) was used to determine the cellular fatty acid (CFA) profiles of 134 Enterobacter sakazakii strains, and these were compared to the CFA profiles of other closely related Enterobacter and Citrobacter species. For GC-FID analysis, whole cell fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) from cells cultured on brain heart infusion (BHI) agar at 37 degrees C for 24 h were obtained by saponification, methylation, and extraction into hexane/methyl tert-butyl ether. A database for E. sakazakii was prepared using fatty acid profiles from the 134 strains. Major fatty acids of E. sakazakii strains evaluated in this study were straight-chain 12:0, 14:0, and 16:0, unsaturated 18:1 omega7c, and 17:0 omegacyclo 7-8. Principal component analysis (PCA) based on CFA profiles for E. sakazakii strains shows separation of E. sakazakii subgroups A and B. The CFA profiles for E. sakazakii and Enterobacter cloacae show that there are several fatty acids, 14:0, 17:0 omegacyclo 7-8, 18:1 omega7c, and summed 16:1 omega6c/16:1 omega7c, that differ significantly between these two species. A PCA model based on CFA profiles for E. sakazakii strains clearly shows separation of E. sakazakii from closely related Enterobacter and Citrobacter species. Analysis of FAMEs from E. sakazakii strains grown on BHI agar by a rapid GC-FID method can provide a sensitive procedure for the identification of this organism, and this analytical method provides a confirmatory procedure for the differentiation of E. sakazakii strains from closely related Enterobacter and Citrobacter species.     

Fatty acid composition of various ectomycorrhizal fungi and ectomycorrhizas of Norway spruce

Whole cell fatty acid (WCFA) compositions of three different structures of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi: sporocarps, pure culture mycelia and ectomycorrhizas were analysed to evaluate the potential use of fatty acid profiles as biomarkers for ECM fungi and ectomycorrhiza-associated bacteria. Sporocarps of Amanita muscaria, Amanita rubescens, Lactarius rufus, Lactarius thejogalus, Leccinum scabrum, Paxillus involutus, Russula foetens, Russula rosea, Russula vesca, Suillus grevillei, Tylopilus felleus, Xerocomus badius, Xerocomus subtomentosus, pure cultures of A. muscaria, P. involutus, X. badius, X. subtomentosus, Suillus bovinus Suillus luteus and seven ectomycorrhizal morphotypes of Norway spruce were examined. Our results revealed species-specific composition of fatty acids of fungal sporocarps and pure culture mycelia. Ectomycorrhizal morphotypes distinguished and identified by morphological and molecular methods (PCR-RLFP and sequencing) created specific fatty acid profiles. The dominating fatty acids in pure cultures and sporocarps were 18:2ω6,9, 18:1ω9 and 16:0, whereas ectomycorrhizas also contained plant and bacterial specific fatty acids. Especially, fatty acids specific to Gram-positive bacteria 15:0 anteiso and 17:0 anteiso were present in relatively high amounts and suggested that these bacteria are dominating in the examined Norway spruce mycorrhizosphere. In conclusion, our results show that fatty acid based methods can be useful in studies of ectomycorrhizal fungi, both as a quick method for differentiation of fungal species and also in studies of mycorrhiza-associated microorganisms in the field.     

Lipid globule staining to aid in differentiating Bacillus species.

The use of the lipid globule stain to aid in differentiating the Bacillus cereus group (i.e., B. cereus, B. cereus var. mycoides, and B. thuringiensis) from other Bacillus species was investigated. Smears from colonies grown on suitable agar were made on precleaned slides, stained, and examined microscopically for characteristic deep blue lipid globules. The study included a total of 649 cultures of Bacillus species plus 143 incompletely characterized Bacillus isolates from food. Only B. cereus, B. cereus var. mycoides, B. thuringiensis, B. megaterium, and B. sphaericus were consistently positive for lipid globules, although at times, a few cells of B. aneurinolyticus and B. thiaminolyticus were also positive. The lipid globule stain procedure is of value in differentiating Bacillus species, especially when performed by an experienced analyst and used in conjunction with tests for cell and spore morphology.     

Enterotoxigenicity and cytotoxicity of Bacillus thuringiensis strains and development of a process for Cry1Ac production

Bacillus thuringiensis is indistinguishable from Bacillus cereus except for the production of insecticidal crystal proteins (ICPs). B. thuringiensis strains may show enterotoxin profiles and toxin levels similar to those of B. cereus strains isolated from food-poisoning cases. It is important for the food industry and farmers to consider that with the application of B. thuringiensis strains to crops, their spores may be introduced into the human food chain. In this study, 59 B. thuringiensis strains were assayed for their hemolysin BL (HBL) using a BCET-RPLA kit and their cytotoxicity to Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The enterotoxin titer was as high as that of B. cereus diarrheal-type strain ATCC 49064. In an attempt to obtain a food safety strain for bioinsecticide use, in this study, a 3.5-kb cry1Ac DNA fragment was amplified with PCR from the total DNA of B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki CCRC 11502 and cloned into the Bacillus expression vector pHY300PLK. The alpha-amylase promoter, amyE, was then introduced into the promoter region and, afterward, the recombinant plasmid pHYe1Ac35 was introduced into a non-enterotoxigenic and non-cytotoxic B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki Tt14 strain. The transformant, without any detectable enterotoxigenicity or cytotoxicity, produced Cry1Ac toxin properly, and its insecticidal activity against Trichoplusia ni larvae was found to be satisfactory.     

Antimicrobial synergistic effect of linolenic acid and monoglyceride against Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus

The antimicrobial effect of linolenic acid with or without monoglyceride (glycerol laurate or glycerol myristate) against six food-borne microorganisms was determined in broth medium. Minimum inhibitory concentration of linolenic acid on Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus was 20 and 50 ppm, respectively. The growth of B. cereus treated with linolenic acid at 10 ppm with 10 ppm monoglyceride was more inhibitory than that of linolenic acid alone, and the viable cell population was reduced 2-4 log cycles compared to that of the control. When linolenic acid was added at that level, the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration of extracellular fluid was drastically increased compared with that of the control, and the combined effect with monoglyceride was higher than that with linolenic acid alone. However, the intracellular ATP concentration decreased compared with that of the control. From these results, we concluded that linolenic acid has a strong antimicrobial activity against B. cereus and S. aureus, and that linolenic acid combined with monoglyceride showed stronger antimicrobial activity than using linolenic acid alone.     

同时检测沙门氏菌和炭疽杆菌磁致伸缩生物传感器制备与应用

为探索2个磁弹性生物传感器进行串联是否会存在耦合干扰,继而影响各自的检测精度,该文以磁致伸缩带材(2 826 MB Metglas TM)为传感器膜片,不同种类噬菌体为生物识别元件,制备了可同时检测沙门氏菌和炭疽杆菌2种病菌的磁致伸缩生物传感器系统。采用物理吸附法在部分磁致伸缩传感器表面固定了对沙门氏菌具有检测专一性的E2噬菌体,用于检测沙门氏菌;部分磁致伸缩传感器表面固定了对炭疽杆菌具有检测专一性的JRB7噬菌体,用于检测炭疽杆菌。在磁致伸缩传感器表面固定噬菌体后,采用牛血清蛋白作为阻滞剂覆盖没有固定噬菌体的局部区域,防止检测中非专一性细菌吸附导致的检测误差。同时,制备了一种没有固定任何噬菌体只覆盖牛血清蛋白阻滞剂的参考传感器,目的是探索牛血清蛋对被检病菌吸附到传感器表面的阻滞效果。在检测过程中,传感器由磁场定位,将传感器浸入到病原体溶液中,吸附细菌后传感器质量增加,导致其共振频率降低。研究发现:所研制的生物传感器系统不存在相互耦合干扰,每种生物传感器能专一性地吸附与表面噬菌体对应的被测病菌。对浓度范围为5×10~5×108 CFU/m L菌液检测还发现,该系统具有良好的检测灵敏度,本研究所采用尺寸规格的传感器灵敏度同单个传感器检测灵敏度一样,为103 CFU/m L。同时,参考传感器浸入到病原体溶液中频率无变化证明了牛血清蛋白阻滞剂可有效消除没有固定噬菌体的局部表面对细菌的非专一性结合。扫描电镜对传感器样品表面进行观察,直观地证明了生物传感器与其目标被测物之间的吸附情况,观察结果为生物传感器对细菌的检测提供了可靠的参考证据。     

N-acyl-homoserine lactones from Enterobacter sakazakii (Cronobacter spp.) and their degradation by Bacillus cereus enzymes

A chemical study of acyl-homoserine lactones (acyl-HSLs) produced by Enterobacter sakazakii resulted in the identification of three molecules: (S)-N-heptanoyl-HSL, (S)-N-dodecanoyl-HSL and (S)-N-tetradecanoyl-HSL. Mixed cultures of E. sakazakii and Bacillus cereus depleted E. sakazakii acyl-HSLs, suggesting acyl-HSL degradation by B. cereus hydrolases (hydrolysis of the lactone or amide moiety). The expression of B. cereus acyl-HSL lactonase and acyl-homoserine acylase was confirmed by monitoring the biotransformation of (S)-N-dodecanoyl-HSL into (S)-N-dodecanoyl-homoserine, dodecanoic acid and homoserine in the presence of B. cereus whole cells, using electrospray-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS).     

Using FAME profiles for the characterization of animal wastes and vermicomposts

This study investigated the possibility of fingerprinting different organic wastes (cow, pig and horse manure) and the vermicomposts produced by different earthworm species (Eisenia andrei, Eudrilus eugeniae and Lumbricus rubellus) analyzing the profiles of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs). We found clear differences between their microbial communities, demonstrating the power and sensitivity of the total FAME analysis. In addition, qualitative and quantitative analyses of specific biomarkers permitted to determine differences between samples and to evaluate the effect of earthworms in the decomposition of organic matter. Fatty acid profiles were largely determined by the different vermicomposting earthworm species. Fatty acid 18:2ω6 increased significantly in horse manure vermicomposted by L. rubellus and in cow manure vermicomposted by the three earthworm species, whereas it decreased significantly in pig manure vermicomposted by L. rubellus and E. eugeniae. Fatty acid 20:4ω6 increased significantly in all vermicomposts obtained with the three earthworm species.     

A gas chromatography/electron ionization-mass spectrometry-selected ion monitoring method for determining the fatty acid pattern in food after formation of fatty acid methyl esters

A method using gas chromatography/electron ionization-mass spectrometry (GC/EI-MS) in the selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode was developed for the analysis of fatty acids as methyl esters (FAMEs) in order to determine their percentage contribution to the fatty acid profile in food. In the GC/EI-MS-SIM mode, saturated fatty acids were determined with m/z 87, monoenoic fatty acids were determined with m/z 74, and polyenoic fatty acids were determined via the sum of m/z 79 and m/z 81. The ratios of these fragment ions and the GC retention data provided additional information for tentative structural assignments. The 28 FAME standards tested provided similar results for the novel GC/EI-MS-SIM method and GC/EI-MS in the full scan mode, both of which were slightly worse than GC/flame ionization detection (FID). Analysis of sunflower oil, suet, and cod liver oil verified that both major and minor fatty acids (20-60% and down to 0.001% contribution to the fatty acid pattern) were determined with sufficient quality that justifies application of the GC/EI-MS-SIM method for the analysis of food samples. Furthermore, the method was approximately 20- or approximately 10-fold more sensitive than GC/EI-MS in the full scan mode or GC/FID, respectively. The method is suited for both quantitative purposes and fatty acid identification in samples where only low amounts of lipids are available.     

Enrichment of eicosapentaenoic acid from sardine oil with Delta5-olefinic bond specific lipase from Bacillus licheniformis MTCC 6824

Lipase derived from Bacillus licheniformis MTCC 6824 was purified to homogeneity by anion exchange chromatography on Amberlite IRA 410 (Cl-) and gel filtration using Sephadex G-100 as judged by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The purified lipase was used for hydrolysis of triacylglycerol in sardine oil to enrich Delta5-polyunsaturated fatty acids (Delta5-PUFAs) namely, arachidonic acid (5,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, ARA, 20:4n-6) and eicosapentaenoic acid (5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA, 20:5n-3). The individual fatty acids were determined as fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) by gas-liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy as FAMEs and N-acyl pyrrolidides. The enzyme exhibited hydrolytic resistance toward ester bonds of Delta5-PUFAs as compared to those of other fatty acids and was proved to be effective for increasing the concentration of EPA and ARA from sardine oil. Utilizing this fatty acid specificity, EPA and ARA from sardine oil were enriched by lipase-mediated hydrolysis followed by urea fractionation at 4 degrees C. The purified lipase produced the highest degree of hydrolysis for SFAs and MUFAs (81.5 and 72.3%, respectively, from their initial content in sardine oil) after 9 h. The profile of conversion by lipase catalysis showed a steady increase up to 6 h and thereafter plateaued down. Lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of sardine oil followed by urea adduction with methanol provided free fatty acids containing 55.4% EPA and 5.8% ARA, respectively, after complexation of saturated and less unsaturated fatty acids. The combination of enzymatic hydrolysis and urea complexation proved to be a promising method to obtain highly concentrated EPA and ARA from sardine oil.     

蜡样芽孢杆菌ATCC14579毒力基因plcR缺失株的构建及其一般特性

蜡样芽孢杆菌是土壤中的优势菌,具有作为益生菌的潜在能力,同时它也是条件致病菌,能引起食物中毒等。蜡样芽孢杆菌的多种毒力因子受到多效性调控子（pleiotropic regulator,plcR）的调控,在其条件致病性作用中起着重要作用。真养产碱杆菌JMP34（Alcaligenes eutrophus）质粒上的2,4-二氯苯氧乙酸（2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid,2,4-D）单加氧酶（tfdA）基因可以降解2,4-D。本研究利用同源重组技术使tfdA基因置换掉蜡样芽孢杆菌的plcR基因,构建了蜡样芽孢杆菌ATCC14579突变株B.cereus△plcRΩtf-dA,并对其毒性、一般生理生化特性进行分析。研究结果表明,突变株B.cereus△plcRΩtfdA的毒性显著减弱;生理生化实验结果显示突变株与野生株并没有明显区别,且突变株并没有表现出tfdA酶活性。所有的结果表明plcR控制着蜡样芽孢杆菌ATCC14579的致病性,同时剔除plcR并不破坏其酶系统。本研究为今后构建蜡样芽孢杆菌工程菌提供了新的思路和依据。

蜡样芽孢杆菌905（Bacillus cereus 905）是从小麦体内分离获得的一株植物有益内生细菌。为从氧自由基毒性角度分析该细菌在植物体内的定殖机制,本研究利用PCR方法得到了B. cereus 905的CuZn-SOD基因全长（sodC）。该基因由537 bp组成,编码179个氨基酸残基。构建表达载体pET-22b-sodC,转化Escherichia coli BL21(DE3),IPTG诱导表达结果表明：该基因表达出的蛋白表现出SOD功能,化学抑制法验证其为CuZn-SOD。     

Screening of the entire USDA castor germplasm collection for oil content and fatty acid composition for optimum biodiesel production

Castor has tremendous potential as a feedstock for biodiesel production. The oil content and fatty acid composition in castor seed are important factors determining the price for production and affecting the key fuel properties of biodiesel. There are 1033 available castor accessions collected or donated from 48 countries worldwide in the USDA germplasm collection. The entire castor collection was screened for oil content and fatty acid composition by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and gas chromatography (GC), respectively. Castor seeds on the average contain 48.2% oil with significant variability ranging from 37.2 to 60.6%. Methyl esters were prepared from castor seed by alkaline transmethylation. GC analysis of methyl esters confirmed that castor oil was composed primarily of eight fatty acids: 1.48% palmitic (C16:0), 1.58% stearic (C18:0), 4.41% oleic (C18:1), 6.42% linoleic (C18:2), 0.68% linolenic (C18:3), 0.45% gadoleic (C20:1), 84.51% ricinoleic (C18:1-1OH), and 0.47% dihydroxystearic (C18:0-2OH) acids. Significant variability in fatty acid composition was detected among castor accessions. Ricinoleic acid (RA) was positively correlated with dihydroxystearic acid (DHSA) but highly negatively correlated with the five other fatty acids except linolenic acid. The results for oil content and fatty acid composition obtained from this study will be useful for end-users to explore castor germplasm for biodiesel production.     

Bacteriocins from Pediococcus pentosaceus L and S from pork meat

Two strains of Pediococcus pentosaceus were isolated from refrigerated pork and found to produce antimicrobial substances that may inhibit foodborne pathogens and have potential as natural food preservatives. They were named P. pentosaceus L and S. The antimicrobial substances were purified to electrophoretical homogeneity by chloroform extraction and designated pentocins L and S with molecular masses (M) of 27 and 25 kDa, respectively. Both pentocins also had broad inhibition spectra and were thermostable. They inhibit the growth of tested spore-forming G+ and G- strains and the germination of Bacillus subtilis ATCC 10225, B. subtilis ATCC 10254, and Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778 spores. The inhibition activities decreased as the glucose in the medium decreased from 8.0 to 2.0%.     

蜡样芽孢杆菌及其生物被膜对有机酸及乙醇的抗性比较

为比较蜡样芽孢杆菌及其生物被膜对环境压力的抗性,该文主要研究了4种有机酸（乙酸、柠檬酸、乳酸和苹果酸）和乙醇对蜡样芽孢杆菌及其生物被膜存活率的影响。结果表明：生物被膜态蜡样芽孢杆菌对乙酸的抗性高于浮游态菌。扫描电镜结果显示,经乙酸处理后,浮游态蜡样芽孢杆菌的细胞表面严重受损,而生物被膜态菌的表面形态未发生明显变化。在柠檬酸、乳酸、苹果酸和乙醇存在的条件下,生物被膜态蜡样芽孢杆菌比浮游态菌表现出更强的压力抗性,特别是在高浓度（有机酸16%～20%,乙醇50%～60%）的情况下,该现象尤为显著。因此,在食品工业中控制被膜态蜡样芽孢杆菌对预防和阻止食品腐败非常重要。该研究结果为实际生产中有效控制蜡样芽孢杆菌及其生物被膜的形成提供参考。     

Composition of total, neutral, and phospholipids in Mapará (Hypophthalmus sp.) from the Brazilian Amazonian area

Ten lots of mapará (Hypophthalmus sp.), captured from the Amazon River, Brazil, were analyzed for their lipid content and fatty acid composition. This knowledge would allow for the development of adequate processing methods and the formulation of therapeutic diets. Separation into neutral and phospholipids was accomplished by silica-gel column chromatography. Fat from the muscular tissue and from the orbital cavity of the mapará was analyzed by high-resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in two different seasonal periods. There were high levels of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids in the total and neutral lipid with the principal components 16:0, 18:1omega9, 18:0, 16:1omega7, 14:0, 18:3omega3, and 18:1omega7 in both seasons. In the phospholipids there was a high level of polyunsaturated fatty acids, including primarily 16:0, 18:1omega9, 18:0, 16:1omega7, 22:6omega3, 20:4omega6, 18:3omega3, and 20:5omega3. The ratio omega3/omega6 was the same in the muscular tissue and in the orbital cavity, in both seasonal periods. The muscle tissue could be used in diets that need high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, but use of the head to produce an omega3 fatty-acid-rich oil still requires greater study with respect to its economic viability.     

Evaluation of the effects of spores and their heat-treated residues from different Bacillus strains on the initial growth of rice plants

This study evaluated the effects of the spores and their heat-treated residues from different strains of Bacillus species (B. pumilus, B. altitudinis, and B. megaterium) on the early growth of paddy rice cultivars, including Hitomebore (short-grain japonica rice), Takanari (high-yielding indica rice), and two new lines, TULK-143-6 and LTAT-29. The spores of seven Bacillus strains positively affected Hitomebore root growth, while, the root volume of TULK-143-6 with inoculation of B. pumilus TUAT1 and JM52, and root length and root surface area of LTAT-29 with inoculation of B. megaterium MAFF301694 were increased significantly. In contrast with Hitomebore, Takanari root growth was significantly inhibited by the spores of six Bacillus strains. Surprisingly, inoculations with the spore residues from all tested Bacillus strains increased the root dry weight of Hitomebore, with the effects of four bacterial strains being significant. Furthermore, there were more Bacillus spores than vegetative cells at different time points during the initial rice growth stage, and most plant samples mainly consisted of Bacillus spores. Thus, the spores of Bacillus species likely promote rice root development.     

Variations of Fatty Acids During the Sulphidization Process in the Authie Bay Sediments (8 pp)

Background, Aim and Scope   The sulphidization process in relatively clean sediments sampled in a mudflat of the Authie estuary (located in Northern France) has been studied by coupling geochemical expertise and the use of fatty acids (FAs) as biochemical markers. Materials and Methods: Three sediment cores have been sampled in September 2003, November 2003 and May 2004, and cut every 2 cm in the field under nitrogen atmosphere so as to prevent any oxidation of reduced species. In the solid phase, reduced sulphur compounds, e.g. AVS (Acid Volatile Sulphides) and CRS (Chromium Reducible Sulphur) [including also the calculation of the degree of sulphidization (DOS) and the degree of pyritization (DOP)], and fatty acids have been carried out. Eh, pH, metal species (mostly iron and manganese), dissolved S(-II) and sulphate have also been determined in the porewaters. Results: The sediment cores display a lot of differences due to the high sedimentation rate and the seasonal evolution as well. The presence of Mn2+, Fe2+, S(-II) and the decrease of the redox potential and the concentration of sulphates clearly indicate early diagenetic transformations promoted by the bacterial activity. Acid Volatile Sulphides are produced in the first cm and are stabilized with depth. A rapid decrease of FAs concentrations in September and May has also been pointed out owing to a rapid consumption of the labile organic matter. Several categories of FAs have been separated and most of them belong here to the saturated and monounsaturated groups. In the saturated group, branched chain FAs, iso and anteiso C15:0 are predominant and represent the bacterial imprint in the sediments. Maximum proportions are observed between 5 and 10 cm in September, and between 13 and 17 cm in November and May. Discussion: As sulphate concentrations remain high in the porewater, the limitation of the sulphidization process in our sediments must be due to a lack of labile organic matter input. The presence of pyrite in our sediment is bound to its formation at the water-sediment interface, where partial reoxidation may take place. However, at deeper depths, pyritization processes does not continue any more. Presence of maximum, dissolved S(-II) concentrations have been observed, simultaneously with maximum proportion relative to total FAs of iso and anteiso C15:0, and, in September, with an increase in proportions of C18:1ω7. This indicates the presence of sulphate-reducing bacterial activity at the time when the sediments were sampled. However, no close correspondence between bacterial FAs concentrations and S(-II) concentrations has been found. Conclusions: In each core, the sulphidization process is not complete, and this is probably due to the lack of biodegradable organic matter, which appears as the limiting factor from a qualitative point of view. S(-II) production in porewaters is linked with the activity of sulphate-reducing bacteria. Seasonal effects have also been pointed out and, especially, a more important input of diatom organic matter in May when compared to September and November. Recommendations and Perspectives: Fatty acid analyses represent an original and a useful tool for a better understanding of an early diagenetic process in the first cm of the sediments. More studies should be carried out associating inorganic chemical parameters and chemical biomarkers for pointing out stronger and more reproducible relations. Moreover, the use of microcosms in our group is on the way to take into account the kinetics of the organic matter degradation during the early diagenesis.     

地膜覆盖对土壤微生物群落结构的影响

采用磷脂脂肪酸(PLFA)法测定了沈阳农业大学棕壤长期定位试验站地膜覆盖条件下土壤微生物磷脂脂肪酸图谱及群落结构。结果表明:在玉米苗期,长期施氮肥处理土壤覆膜后大部分脂肪酸含量都有所提高;施有机肥处理的土壤覆膜后脂肪酸的含量有降低的趋势;有机无机肥配合施用处理的土壤覆膜会增加真菌的含量,但却降低了其他脂肪酸的含量;在不施肥处理的土壤中,覆膜会使一些支链脂肪酸的含量降低。抽雄期,施有机肥的土壤覆膜后除单饱和脂肪酸含量有所下降外,其他脂肪酸都会提高;不施肥土壤覆膜处理双不饱和支链脂肪酸及放线菌标志性脂肪酸10Me18:0的含量会有所提高。成熟期,施氮肥的土壤覆膜处理大部分脂肪酸的含量降低;有机肥处理土壤中各种脂肪酸如:15∶0,a17∶0,i17∶0,i19∶0,18∶0,10Me18∶0含量覆膜高于裸地;有机无机配施处理土壤中17∶0,br17∶0,18∶0,18∶2w6,10Me18∶0含量覆膜处理高于裸地;对照土壤中i15∶0,16∶0,17∶0,a17∶0,18∶0,18∶2w6,19∶0含量覆膜高于裸地。另外,从脂肪酸的变化看出,覆膜处理土壤微生物群落整体结构发生了改变,没有表现出明显的种群优势。但是,尽管土壤的施肥处理不同,覆膜处理土壤微生物群落结构有一致化发展的趋势。     

Consequences of microwave heating and frying on the lipid fraction of chicken and beef patties

Two types of commercial meat patties were analyzed to evaluate the effect of two applied cooking methods on the lipid fraction and the cholesterol oxidation process during heating. Microwave heating hardly modified the fatty acid profiles of both chicken and beef patties, whereas frying in olive oil increased oleic and eicosapentaenoic acids and decreased linoleic and docosahexaenoic acids in both types of products. Frying improved the omega6/omega3 fatty acids ratio in beef patties from 10.67 (raw) to 5.37 (fried). Total cholesterol oxidation product (COP) increments were 5.3-6.1-fold with microwave heating and 1.5-2.6-fold with frying. Chicken patties, raw and cooked, had a COP content twice as high as the corresponding beef ones.
