脉动压力腌制禽蛋的试验研究

为了缩短咸蛋加工时间，改善咸蛋品质，提出了脉动压力技术加工咸蛋。该技术是将鸡蛋置于盛有盐溶液的压力容器中，通过电磁阀的通断控制压力容器的加压与卸压，实现压力脉动。其腌制机理是利用高压状态渗透压增大，加快盐分渗入到蛋壳与蛋内；低压状态，蛋内压力小于外界压力，加速渗出蛋内气体和水分，达到缩短咸蛋加工时间的目的。一般用比方法加工，2～3d即可腌制出合格的咸蛋，加工效率提高10倍左右。试验结果显示，盐溶液浓度与压力对咸蛋含盐量影响最为显著，高低压保持时间分配对咸蛋含盐量有一定影响。     

超声波-脉动压联用快速腌制咸鸭蛋的工艺参数优化

咸鸭蛋的腌制周期很长,一般夏季20～30 d、春秋季40～50 d。为了提高咸蛋的腌制效率,采用超声波-脉动压联用技术,选取高压幅值、高压脉动比和超声波作用时间为影响因素,通过单因素和正交试验,测定咸蛋腌制过程中蛋清含盐量和蛋黄含盐量的变化,对超声波-脉动压联用技术在咸蛋快速腌制中的工艺参数进行优化。结果表明：采用质量分数为24%食盐溶液,在恒温30℃条件下腌制3 d,综合咸蛋品质和食盐传质速率得出最佳工艺参数：高压幅值为140 kPa,高压脉动比为4 min：16 min,超声波作用时机应在第1天,超声波脉动比为2 min：10 min,超声波作用时长为132 min,可以腌制出效果较好的咸蛋,蛋白食盐含量为4.61%,蛋黄食盐含量为2.12%,而含盐量差值只有2.49%。感官评定此组咸蛋具有蛋白细嫩、咸味适中;蛋黄松沙、含油、咸味可口的特点。同时生产周期比传统腌制方法缩短了90%,可为咸蛋的工业化生产提供技术参考。     

腌制剂对脉动压腌制咸鸡蛋的影响

为丰富咸蛋品种,改善咸蛋风味,提高咸蛋的腌制速率,应用脉动压技术,以鸡蛋为原料,选取白酒、香辛料、柠檬酸为影响因素,通过单因素及正交试验,考察咸蛋腌制中蛋质量增加率、蛋清含盐率和蛋黄含盐率的变化,对腌制禽蛋工艺进行优化。结果表明：白酒和柠檬酸对盐分渗入有促进作用,而香辛料则阻碍了盐分的渗入,影响咸蛋综合评分的因素从高到低依次为香辛料、白酒、柠檬酸,且香辛料对咸蛋综合评分的影响显著,柠檬酸对蛋清含盐率的影响显著。在高压幅值140 kPa、脉动比2.5 min/5min饱和食盐溶液中腌制96 h,风味咸蛋腌制     

咸蛋盐水腌制动力学研究

以鲜鸡蛋为原料,采用盐水腌制法,研究腌制温度、时间和盐水浓度对咸蛋成熟度的影响。试验结果表明：随着腌制温度、时间的延长和盐水浓度的增加,含盐量及蛋黄指数迅速升高,蛋清的含盐量明显高于蛋黄,且含盐量由内到外呈梯度分布,蛋黄外层含盐量明显高于中心点。建立的腌制条件对蛋品含盐量及蛋黄指数的拟合方程,能较好地描述腌制温度、时间和盐水浓度对咸蛋成熟的影响。     

脉动压腌制双孢菇工艺参数优化

为提高食用菌腌制速率,应用脉动压技术,以双孢菇为试验对象,选取盐溶液质量分数、高压幅值、脉动比(高压保持时间与常压保持时间之比)为影响因素,通过单因素及正交试验,考察双孢菇腌制过程中脱水率和进盐率的变化,对双孢菇脉动压腌制工艺进行优化。结果表明:除盐溶液质量分数对脱水率和进盐率的影响显著(α=0.1)外,其他因素对脱水率和进盐率影响均不显著。综合考虑脱水率和进盐率2个指标得出,在渗透时间27min的条件下,腌制双孢菇的优化参数为盐溶液质量分数7.5%,高压幅值130kPa,脉动比3min/6min,脱水率和进盐率分别为52.84%和0.86%。将该技术用于双孢菇腌制,可丰富食用菌加工品种,并极大提高脱水速率,为双孢菇腌制生产工艺革新提供理论和技术支持。     

咸蛋黄快速腌制过程中理化性质变化规律

该研究以新鲜蛋黄为原料,利用快速腌制模具,探究在咸蛋黄的上表面添加食盐单侧腌制过程中,食盐添加量和腌制时间对咸鸡蛋黄快速腌制过程中形貌特征和理化性质变化规律的影响。借助多种仪器分析手段对蛋黄腌制过程中形貌与物性的变化、水分及盐分的迁移规律进行了表征。低场核磁及成像结果表明：在腌制过程中,蛋黄中的水分不断向外迁移,含水率显著降低,当增加食盐的添加量和延长腌制时间,会加快水分的迁移速率;原子吸收结果表明：增加食盐添加盐量越多和腌制时间越长盐分迁移速率越快,质构、色差结果共同表明咸蛋黄腌制过程中,由于水分的向外迁移和盐分的向内渗入,使得蛋黄的蛋白质发生聚集使颜色加深;同时与市售整个腌制后分离的鸡蛋黄产品相比,当腌制时间为7d,添加盐量为3%;腌制时间为3d,添加盐量为5%时,所得的样品与市面的成品咸鸡蛋黄的感官品质及量化指标差异不显著（P<0.05）,为咸蛋黄单侧腌制技术提供理论的可行性。     

基于透射图像的高压脉动腌制咸鸭蛋含盐量检测

含盐量是衡量咸鸭蛋品质的重要指标。为了利用机器视觉技术实现高压脉动腌制咸鸭蛋含盐量的无损检测。该研究采用工业相机和透射光源搭建咸鸭蛋的透射图像采集装置。采用图像整体特征和长轴截面光强度特征两种特征提取方法,利用多元线性回归、支持向量机回归两种算法,建立对蛋清、蛋黄及全蛋含盐量以及蛋黄指数的定量预测模型。结果表明,随着咸鸭蛋腌制时间的增加,其透光性显著提高。同时,透射图像蛋黄的所在视野区域会随着含盐量的增加而呈现规律性的变化。基于图像整体特征建立的蛋清、蛋黄、全蛋含盐量模型较优,在蛋黄指数预测下基于长轴截面光强度特征所建模型较优。其中,基于图像整体特征所建立的蛋黄含盐量支持向量机回归（support vector regression, SVR）模型最优,测试集相关系数（test set correlation coefficient, R_p）、测试集均方根误差(root mean square error of prediction, RMSE_p)、相对分析误差（residual predictive deviation, RPD）分别达到0.8460、0.3416、1.898;基于长轴截面光强度特征建立的蛋黄指数多元线性回归（multiple linear regression, MLR）模型最优,测试集相关系数R_p、均方根误差RMSE_p、相对分析误差RPD分别为0.8318、0.0743、1.916。该研究结果为咸鸭蛋含盐量的快速检测提供理论依据和技术支持。     

脉动压差闪蒸处理对苹果片水分散失特性及品质影响

为了研究苹果片水分散失特性及品质变化规律,该文采用脉动压差闪蒸技术对苹果片进行干燥处理,结合低场核磁共振技术、重量法、物性分析等技术,分析苹果片水分散失特性和品质变化。闪蒸是脉动压差闪蒸干燥的一个中间阶段,也是一个至关重要的环节,因此该文着重研究闪蒸温度和闪蒸次数对瞬间脉动压差作用引起的水分散失、水分状态变化及苹果脆片品质的变化。试验结果显示:闪蒸温度对苹果片水分散失和品质都有影响,温度过低产品酥脆度不佳,温度过高引起脆片品质下降,由此得到适宜的闪蒸温度为95℃;多次脉动闪蒸对水分散失和质构的形成有促进作用,由于闪蒸瞬间温度和压力的突然降低,水分瞬间汽化为蒸汽,苹果片含水率降低,可以缩短干燥时间,提高脆片品质;闪蒸量随脉动次数的增加呈现出先上升后下降的趋势,这与苹果片内水分状态变化有关,初期以自由水为主而容易散失,后期以不易流动水和结合水为主,水分逐渐从高自由度向低自由度转变,导致水分散失速度减慢,水分闪蒸量减少;此外,核磁共振信号幅值的降低说明闪蒸作用可以促进水分散失;闪蒸促进水分散失的同时,引起内部结构膨胀,减少脆片干燥皱缩现象;闪蒸次数对苹果脆片品质也有一定影响,次数过多引起色泽变暗、膨化度降低、口感变差,综合各方面品质特性变化,得到闪蒸5次较为适宜。该试验结果可以为闪蒸作用对水分散失特性及品质影响研究提供理论基础。     

降速方式对混流泵压力脉动特性的影响

混流泵在降速过程中的内部流动特性变化对其性能和稳定性有重要影响。针对这一问题,该研究探究了混流泵在降速过程中内部流动的复杂性,尤其关注不同降速方式对泵内压力脉动特性的影响。通过构建多通道测试系统,收集了混流泵在不同降速方式下的外特性参数信号和泵内压力脉动信号。并采用非稳态信号处理技术,从时域、频域和时频三方面探究不同降速方式对叶轮出口和导叶内部的压力脉动特性的影响以及二者之间的相关性。结果表明,泵内压力脉动的峰值和样本熵的变化趋势与不同降速方式的幂指数呈正相关关系;在整个降速过程中叶轮出口压力脉动对导叶内压力脉动起主导作用;叶轮出口和导叶内部压力脉动之间的相干频率主要集中于80~120 Hz之间;在不同降速过程中叶轮出口和导叶内部的压力脉动之间强相关区域的频带范围保持不变,但是强相关区域在整个降速过程频带范围中的占比有所变化;对于具有固定初始转速和目标转速的降速过程,降速方式的改变不会影响叶轮出口和导叶内压力脉动的相干频率。研究结论可为揭示混流泵瞬态运行特性及提高混流泵降速运行中的稳定性提供参考。

Pasture Vegetation Elemental Analysis by Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a new technique for the analysis of plant material. This study investigates the application of LIBS to pasture-based plant samples. The LIBS measurements were obtained from pelletized pasture samples (100 samples) that had been also analyzed by inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) following microwave digestion for calibration and comparison purposes. Comparisons for elements sodium (Na), potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), boron (B), phosphorus (P), and sulfur (S) showed that LIBS could be used for almost all the standard profile total elements with concentrations down to low mg/kg levels (observed error of Na: 0.024 percent, K: 0.18 percent, Mg: 0.016 percent, Ca: 0.073 percent, P: 0.017 percent, Mn: 31 mg/kg, Fe: 150 mg/kg, Zn: 6.6 mg/kg, and B: 1.1 mg/kg). Elemental analysis at less than mg/kg levels was not possible using LIBS. The elements S and Cu were particularly difficult to analyze with reliability using LIBS at the concentration levels found in the plant samples. Replacing microwave digestion and subsequent ICP analysis with a direct analysis of dried plant samples using LIBS has the potential to improve the productivity and reduce the cost of testing.

Biodiversity and ecogeography of wild Lactuca spp. in some European countries

Staff members of the Department of Botany of Palacký University in Olomouc and Gene Bank Department – Workplace Olomouc, Research Institute of Crop Production in Prague, Czech Republic, conducted an expedition in seven European countries (Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Switzerland) in August/September 1999 to collect wild Lactuca spp. germplasm and study its geographic distribution, ecology and biodiversity. During the mission, more than 600 locations were visited resulting in the collection of 602 seed samples (accessions) of wild Lactuca species and 13 seed samples of related genera (Chondrilla and Mycelis). Lactuca serriola f. serriola, L. serriola f. integrifolia, L. saligna and L. viminea subsp. chondrilliflora were prevalent in southern Europe (Italy, France), however, only L. serriola was common in central and western Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland). The greatest diversity of Lactuca species was found in France, where also the most seed samples (165) were collected. The most characteristic habitats with a high density of Lactuca spp. populations were observed along roads and highways, grassy ditches, ruderal communities, and dust-heaps. Natural infections by powdery mildew (Erysiphe cichoracearum) and downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) on some wild Lactuca spp. were observed. Recent observations concerning the geographic distribution, population structure, habitats, and natural occurrence of diseases of Lactuca spp. are discussed. This assemblage of genetic resources of Lactuca spp. can serve as the basis of future studies of species diversification, spatial population structure, plant microevolution, domestication processes, and genetic variability of host-parasite interactions.     

Macroinvertebrates in North American tallgrass prairie soils: effects of fire, mowing, and fertilization on density and biomass

The responses of tallgrass prairie plant communities and ecosystem processes to fire and grazing are well characterized. However, responses of invertebrate consumer groups, and particularly soil-dwelling organisms, to these disturbances are not well known. At Konza Prairie Biological Station, we sampled soil macroinvertebrates in 1994 and 1999 as part of a long-term experiment designed to examine the effects and interactions of annual fire, mowing, and fertilization (N and P) on prairie soil communities and processes. For nearly all taxa, in both years, responses were characterized by significant treatment interactions, but some general patterns were evident. Introduced European earthworms (Aporrectodea spp. and Octolasion spp.) were most abundant in plots where fire was excluded, and the proportion of the total earthworm community consisting of introduced earthworms was greater in unburned, unmowed, and fertilized plots. Nymphs of two Cicada genera were collected (Cicadetta spp. and Tibicen spp.). Cicadetta nymphs were more abundant in burned plots, but mowing reduced their abundance. Tibicen nymphs were collected almost exclusively from unburned plots. Treatment effects on herbivorous beetle larvae (Scarabaeidae, Elateridae, and Curculionidae) were variable, but nutrient additions (N or P) usually resulted in greater densities, whereas mowing usually resulted in lower densities. Our results suggest that departures from historical disturbance regimes (i.e. frequent fire and grazing) may render soils more susceptible to increased numbers of European earthworms, and that interactions between fire, aboveground biomass removal, and vegetation responses affect the structure and composition of invertebrate communities in tallgrass prairie soils.     

Properties of anaerobically digested and composted municipal solid waste assessed by linking soil mesofauna dynamics and nitrogen modelling

We have studied the effect of anaerobically digested (ADMSW) and composted municipal solid waste (CMSW) on mineralization and foodweb dynamics to verify the hypothesis that ADMSW would immobilize N right after addition to soil in contrast to addition with CMSW. Another hypothesis was that the mesofauna (enchytraeids and microarthropods) would stimulate N release from the decomposer community. We measured excretion of -N and urea-N from the mesofauna and hypothesized that enchytraeids would release urea. ADMSW and CMSW were amended to pots with sandy loam and barley. The pots were divided into treatments with or without mesofauna. Mesofauna, plant N and biomass, soil N and ergosterol (fungal biomass) were measured over a 113-day period of four equidistant samplings. Soil respiration, N mineralization and N release by the mesofauna were modelled from concurrent studies. ADMSW- and CMSW-treated soils initially (<20 days) immobilized N. The amendments did not increase plant growth substantially, and this was probably due to N-limitation in the early stages of plant growth. Enchytraeid abundance was about three times higher in ADMSW- than CMSW-treated soils, indicating that ADMSW contained more labile compounds, bacteria, and microfauna. The mesofauna did not affect N-content, but the cumulated -N excreted by the mesofauna was estimated to be substantial and about one-fifth of total plant N in ADMSW. An explanation for this discrepancy might be that in the absence of the mesofauna, other members of the detrivore and microbivore community performed the mesofauna’s function. Neither enchytraeids nor microarthropods excreted urea.

Variation in quality parameters between and within 14 Nordic tree fruit and berry species

Abstract

A 3-year study was carried out to investigate quality parameters in 14 tree fruit and berry species grown in southern Norway. The species were blueberry, apple, aronia, sour cherry, sweet cherry, red raspberry, strawberry, blackcurrant, gooseberry, red currant and elderberry, harvested along with wild bilberry, cloudberry and lingonberry. Significant differences between species were identified for all quality parameters. The coefficient of variation between species was lowest for pH (12.5%), dry matter (18.9%) and soluble solids (25.3%), followed by titratable acids (59.3%), total phenolics (83.8%), antioxidant capacity FRAP (85.7%) and antiradical power by the DPPH-assay (97.8%), total monomeric anthocyanins (132%) and ascorbic acid (137%). Average coefficient of variation within species were lower and ranged from 4 (pH) to 62% (ascorbic acid). Only the FRAP values were significantly affected by harvesting year with lower levels in 2004 than in 2005 and 2006. There were significant interactions between species and harvesting year for dry matter, soluble solids, pH, ascorbic acid and FRAP. The results indicate generic ranges in composition within species independent upon growing location and climate, and the composition of the tree fruits and berries is not likely to deviate from these ranges. It is concluded that desirable composition of tree fruits and berries and their products should primarily be achieved by selection among species rather than searching fors broadened variation within individual species.     

Potassium Fixation and Release Characteristics in Rhizosphere and Nonrhizosphere Soils for a Rapeseed–Rice Cropping Sequence

Potassium (K) fixation and release in soil are important factors in the long-term sustainability of a cropping system. Changes in K concentration and characteristics of K fixation and release in rhizosphere and nonrhizosphere soils in the rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)–rice (Oryza sativa L.) rotation were investigated using a rhizobox system. The concentrations of different forms of K in both rhizosphere and nonrhizosphere soils decreased with plants compared to without plants, regardless of K fertilizer application. Potassium uptake by crops mainly came from the rhizosphere soil. In the treatment without K fertilizer (–K), the main form of K supplied by the soil to the crops was 1.0 mol L^?1 nitric acid (HNO₃) nonextractable K, followed by nonexchangeable K, and then exchangeable K. In the treatment with K fertilizer (+K), the main K forms supplied by the soil to the crops were exchangeable K and nonexchangeable K. The amount and rate of K fixation after one cycle of the rapeseed–rice rotation was greater in rhizosphere soil than in nonrhizosphere soil. The amount and rate of K fixation of soil in the +K treatment were significantly less than in the –K treatment. The cumulative amounts of K released with 1.0 mol L^?1 ammonium acetate (NH₄OAc) and 1.0 mol L^?1 HNO₃ extraction increased with the increasing numbers of extractions, but the K-releasing power of soil by successive extraction decreased gradually and finally became almost constant. The release of K was less in rhizosphere soil than in nonrhizosphere soil. The release of K in the +K treatment was similar to that in the –K treatment in rhizosphere soil, but the K release in nonrhizosphere soil was greater with the +K than the –K treatment. Overall, the information obtained in this study will be helpful in formulating more precise K fertilizer recommendations for certain soils.
