为了快速预测和监控引起冷却肉腐败变质的主要微生物--假单胞菌的生长,以从冷却猪肉中分离得到的假单胞菌P-1菌株作为受试菌,建立和验证0～10℃低温条件下假单胞菌的生长动力学模型.利用SAS程序拟合不同温度条件下的生长情况,经过比较发现,Gompcrtz模型比线性模型能更好地拟合假单胞菌的生长,从而得到假单胞菌生长的Gompcrtz模型参数;利用平方根模型对假单胞菌的最大比生长速率平方根一温度进行拟合,得到假单胞菌生长的二级模型:利用培养基数据、冷却肉产品数据和温度波动条件下的数据对所得到的二级模型进行验证,计算得到总的偏差因子和准确因子分别为0.944和1.256,结果表明建立的二级模型能真实快速有效地预测0～10℃下冷却肉中假单胞菌的生长.     

贮藏温度和气调包装对鸡蛋保鲜效果的影响

为了延长鸡蛋保鲜期,研究在室温(25℃)和冷藏(4℃)条件下不同配比CO2、O2、N2三元混合气体包装对鸡蛋保鲜效果影响,结果表明:鸡蛋采用气体组分为50％CO2、7％～11％O2、39％～43％N2的气调包装贮藏保鲜,室温下贮藏30d仍保持AA级,而不包装室温贮藏30 d降到了B级;不包装冷藏也可延长鸡蛋保鲜期,但失重率相对较高;气调包装与冷藏结合对鸡蛋的保鲜效果不是2种处理的保鲜效果之和,与气调包装室温贮藏的保鲜效果相似.50％CO2、7％～11％O2、39％～43％N2三元气体包装、室温贮藏可实现鸡蛋就地贮藏,试验为鸡蛋贮藏保鲜提供参考.     

不同气调包装方式对冷却猪肉在冷藏过程中的理化及感官特性的影响

冷却猪肉分别采用真空包装、CO+CO₂+N₂气调包装、高浓度O₂+CO₂+N₂气调包装和低浓度O₂+CO₂+N₂气调包装后，在(4±1)℃贮存至21 d，贮存过程中每周测定理化指标(pH值、TVB-N值、TBA值、汁液流失率)，并进行感官评定。实验结果表明：1)CO-MAP是目前冷却肉保鲜方法中比较理想的一种，采用CO-MAP的冷却猪肉在21 d的贮存过程中，不仅TVB-N值和TBA值低，红色稳定，而且无任何异味。2)真空包装的冷却猪肉TVB-N值和TBA值也比较低，但色泽呈淡紫色，汁液流失率高。3)含氧气调包装中，冷却猪肉的TVB-N值和TBA值相对较高，特别是脂肪氧化加速，鲜红色泽1周后很快变为褐色，并有不良气味产生，但汁液流失率比较低，所以含氧包装仅适合保质期在1周以内的冷却猪肉。     

不同气调包装方式的冷却猪肉在冷藏过程中的微生物变化

适宜气调包装延缓冷藏鲳鱼品质变化延长货架期(英文)

该文主要研究了不同气体比例组分的气调包装处理对冷藏鲳鱼贮藏期间品质变化及货架期的影响,从中找出能使鲳鱼冷藏货架期延长的适宜气体比例。将新鲜鲳鱼以冰藏方式快速运至实验室,将样品经去头、去尾、去内脏处理后,分别置于3种气体组分条件(MAP1:20%CO2/80%N2,MAP2:50%CO2/50%N2,MAP3:80%CO2/20%N2)的气调包装袋内冷藏(4±1)℃保鲜,以空气包装样品作为冷藏对照组(AIR),其中包装袋内的气体与样品体积比为3∶1,在12 d内隔天测定各组样品的感官指标、微生物指标(菌落总数)与化学指标(挥发性盐基氮值、K值、三甲胺值与p H值)变化。冷藏后的第4天,对照组与气调处理组的感官分值、菌落总数、挥发性盐基氮值与三甲胺值差异显著(P0.05),冷藏对照组样品的各项指标首先达到新鲜限值,其冷藏货架期仅为4-5d。经过气调处理后的鲳鱼样品,其菌落总数达到二级鲜度的速度明显缓于冷藏对照组,其他各项指标的变化也证实了气调包装的潜在优点。其中,80%CO2+20%N2处理组能明显延缓样品p H值、挥发性盐基氮值、菌落总数、三甲胺值与K值的升高(P0.05),较冷藏对照组相比,其冷藏货架期能延长6~8 d。同时,气调处理组贮藏期间的p H值未呈现先降后升的变化规律,表明p H值不适用于评价气调包装鲳鱼贮藏期间的品质变化。气调包装样品的菌落总数在贮藏前期略有下降,表明CO2对样品菌落总数的升高有较好的抑制作用。在CO2≤80%条件下,各项微生物与理化指标的测定结果显示出不同气体比例的气调包装处理对冷藏鲳鱼的保鲜效果,CO2浓度越高,其保鲜效果越显著,气调处理能使鲳鱼样品的冷藏保鲜期由4 d延长至6-12 d,其中80%CO2+20%N2的气调处理组对鲳鱼样品的冷藏货架期延长效果较佳。     

去除冷却猪肉辐照异味方法初探

为了探索去除冷却猪肉辐射后异味的方法,研究了气调处理,吸附剂处理及气调与吸附剂组合处理对异味去除的效果,对吸附剂种类,添加量,吸附进程也作了分析。结果表明,预冷猪肉经60% O2 30% CO2 10% N2气调包装,或内置0.01 g/(50 g)肉小包装吸附剂（氯化锌/氧化锌）的薄膜包装后,辐照2.8 kGy,辐照后及冷藏期感觉不出辐照异味,猪肉品质正常。二者组合处理经4.2 kGy辐照后异味达不可察觉程度。     

三疣梭子蟹不同包装方式保鲜效果的比较

三疣梭子蟹属宁波名特优水产养殖品种,但三疣梭子蟹在保藏加工中容易发生褐变,哪种包装方式可抑制梭子蟹褐变并有效延长产品保鲜期,是一个值得探讨的问题。该文对三疣梭子蟹真空包装、气调包装和涂膜包装的保鲜效果进行比较。结果表明：气调包装气体配比为CO2 50%,N2 50%的保鲜效果较好;但真空包装与气调包装和涂膜包装的保鲜效果相比,0～4℃下,真空包装可有效抑制梭子蟹腮部和足部褐变并延长三疣梭子蟹保鲜期,保鲜效果好于气调包装和涂膜包装。     

气调包装对冷却肉护色保鲜效果的研究

不同气体成分比例和不同包装材料影响冷却肉的贮藏保鲜品质。本研究通过填充不同比例的CO、CO₂和N₂,结合不同阻隔性能的包装材料,分析气调包装对冷却肉护色保鲜的效果。结果表明当充气比例为1%CO、25%CO₂和74%N₂时冷藏21d,冷却肉的出水率为1.54%,红度值(a*)值最大,细菌总数增加量最少,挥发性盐基氮含量最低,色泽、风味和外观感官性能最佳,综合护色保鲜效果最优。同时,高阻隔性的包装材料能显著性地维持冷却肉的色泽,降低失水率,抑制微生物的生长。本研究显示适宜的气体成分组成配合高阻隔性的包装材料,更加有利于冷却肉的护色保鲜。     

冷却猪肉不同贮藏温度的货架期预测模型

为了建立冷却猪肉货架期的预测模型,把特定腐败菌接种到无污染的冷却猪肉表面,托盘包装分别置于0℃,4℃,7℃,10℃,14℃和20℃的温度下贮藏,分别测定不同贮藏时间的细菌总数,同时对4℃贮藏的不同企业冷却猪肉进行品质分析,确定腐败限控量.结果表明,冷却猪肉腐败限控量为7.23 lg(cfu/g).应用修正的Gompertz函数能很好的描述特定腐败菌在不同温度下的生长动态,建立了6种温度下其在猪肉中的生长模型.温度对最大比生长速率和延滞时间等动力学参数的影响,采用平方根模型呈现良好的线性关系,模型残差值的绝对值均小于0.1,上下浮动于零左右,表明该模型描述的温度与比生长速率和延滞时间是可信的,由此建立了0～20℃范围内冷却猪肉贮藏过程中货架期的预测模型.     

液氮充注气调保鲜运输厢内环境因素间耦合关系

为掌握液氮充注气调运输保鲜环境因素间的耦合关系,搭建了气调运输保鲜环境调控试验平台。通过试验分别研究了制冷、高压雾化加湿、液氮充注气调、换气等调节过程对保鲜环境中温度、相对湿度、氧气体积分数、二氧化碳体积分数等参数的影响。结果表明：液氮充注气调在快速降低氧气体积分数的同时,对温度和相对湿度影响均较大;制冷在降低温度的同时,对相对湿度影响较大;采用高压雾化加湿时,对温度影响较小,空气压缩机吸入外界空气将对氧气体积分数产生较大影响,而吸入厢体内气体对氧气体积分数影响均很小;换气对厢体内氧气体积分数和二氧化碳体积分数影响较大。研究结果可供气调运输保鲜环境综合调控提供参考。

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.     

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.     

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.

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.
