Effects of Delayed Processing of Pink Salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) By-products on Fishmeal Quality

The effects of storage temperature and time on raw pink salmon by-products were evaluated in relation to the fishmeal produced. Chemical analyses were performed on the raw and processed by‐products at two temperatures. Total volatile base nitrogen values indicated substantial spoilage by day 2 at 15.4 ± 1.4°C and day 6 at 6.0 ± 0.8°C. For most biogenic amines in raw by-products stored at 15.4°C, there were many significant differences from the fresh by-products by day 2. For by-products stored at 6.0°C, significant changes in biogenic amine were evident by day 2 and continued to increase. The thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values of the raw material stored at 15.4°C started showing significant changes from fresh on day 3 and at 6.0°C on day 4. The lipid oxidation (TBARS) was significantly different from fresh by day 2. Biogenic amines in fishmeals suggested some changes occurred between day 0 and day 3 at 15.4°C and by day 7 at 6.0°C.     

氨基酸副产物对青贮饲料发酵品质及消化率的影响

试验旨在研究氨基酸副产物（amino acid by-products,ABP）对全株红高粱和全株甜玉米发酵品质及消化率的影响,并通过扫描电镜（SEM）探讨ABP对青贮饲料发酵品质及消化率的作用机制。试验设无添加剂的对照组和添加2.0% ABP的试验组Ⅰ、2.0% ABP与饲用菌混合添加的试验组Ⅱ,分别进行红高粱和甜玉米的发酵试验,检测其发酵品质及消化率。结果表明：①试验组Ⅰ红高粱和甜玉米青贮pH降至3.90和3.28,感官评定均属于优质青贮饲料。②对于红高粱青贮,与对照组相比,试验组干物质（DM）含量略有提高,但差异不显著（P>0.05）,粗蛋白质（CP）含量显著高于对照组（P<0.05）,试验组Ⅱ纤维成分略低于对照组,但差异不显著（P>0.05）;各试验组乳酸和乙酸含量显著高于对照组（P<0.05）,试验组Ⅱ丁酸含量显著低于其余组（P<0.05）;试验组干物质和中性洗涤纤维（NDF）消化率均高于对照组,但差异不显著（P>0.05）,酸性洗涤纤维（ADF）消化率显著高于对照组（P<0.05）。③对于甜玉米青贮,各试验组干物质和纤维含量均低于对照组,但差异不显著（P>0.05）,粗蛋白质含量显著高于对照组（P<0.05）;试验组Ⅰ乳酸含量显著高于其余组（P<0.05）,试验组Ⅱ乙酸含量显著高于其余组（P<0.05）,而各试验组丁酸含量显著高于对照组（P<0.05）;试验组各养分消化率均低于对照组但高于未发酵原料,其中干物质和酸性洗涤纤维消化率差异显著（P<0.05）。④SEM结果表明,青贮过程中ABP通过破坏红高粱表面蜡质层促进饲用菌的黏附,并降解其细胞壁纤维成分而改善了青贮发酵品质并提高消化率;但ABP对青贮甜玉米蜡质层及细胞壁纤维结构破坏作用不明显。综上,添加ABP可提高红高粱青贮的发酵品质和养分消化率,但对甜玉米青贮的作用不大。     

In Vitro Bioactivity of Astaxanthin and Peptides from Hydrolisates of Shrimp (Parapenaeus longirostris) By-Products: From the Extraction Process to Biological Effect Evaluation,as Pilot Actions for the Strategy “From Waste to Profit”

Non-edible parts of crustaceans could be a rich source of valuable bioactive compounds such as the carotenoid astaxanthin and peptides, which have well-recognized beneficial effects. These compounds are widely used in nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals, and their market is rapidly growing, suggesting the need to find alternative sources. The aim of this work was to set up a pilot-scale protocol for the reutilization of by-products of processed shrimp, in order to address the utilization of this valuable biomass for nutraceutical and pharmaceuticals application, through the extraction of astaxanthin-enriched oil and antioxidant-rich protein hydrolysates. Astaxanthin (AST) was obtained using “green extraction methods,” such as using fish oil and different fatty acid ethyl esters as solvents and through supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), whereas bioactive peptides were obtained by protease hydrolysis. Both astaxanthin and bioactive peptides exhibited bioactive properties in vitro in cellular model systems, such as antioxidant and angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities (IA). The results show higher astaxanthin yields in ethyl esters fatty acids (TFA) extraction and significant enrichment by short-path distillation (SPD) up to 114.80 ± 1.23 µg/mL. Peptide fractions of <3 kDa and 3–5 kDa exhibited greater antioxidant activity while the fraction 5–10 kDa exhibited a better ACE-IA. Lower-molecular-weight bioactive peptides and astaxanthin extracted using supercritical fluids showed protective effects against oxidative damage in 142BR and in 3T3 cell lines. These results suggest that “green” extraction methods allow us to obtain high-quality bioactive compounds from large volumes of shrimp waste for nutraceutical and pharmaceutical applications.     

Accelerated Solvent Extraction and Pulsed Electric Fields for Valorization of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and Sole (Dover sole) By-Products: Protein Content,Molecular Weight Distribution and Antioxidant Potential of the Extracts

Fishery by-products are rich in biologically active substances and the use of green and efficient extraction methods to recover these high-added-value compounds is of particular importance. In this study, head, skin and viscera of rainbow trout and sole were used as the target matrices and accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) (45–55 °C, 15 min, pH 5.2–6.8, 103.4 bars) and pulsed electric fields (PEF) (1–3 kV/cm, 123–300 kJ/kg, 15–24 h) were applied as extraction technologies. The results showed that ASE and PEF significantly increased the protein extract efficiency of the fish by-products (p < 0.05) by up to 80%. SDS-PAGE results showed that ASE and PEF treatments changed the molecular size distribution of the protein in the extracts, which was specifically expressed as the change in the area or number of bands between 5 and 250 kDa. The antioxidant capacity of the extracts was evaluated by oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) and total antioxidant capacity (ABTS) assays. The results showed that both ASE and PEF treatments significantly increased the antioxidant capacity of rainbow trout and sole skin and head extracts (p < 0.05). ASE and PEF extraction processes can be used as new technologies to extract high-added-value compounds from fish by-products.     

Bioinsecticide production by the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis. 1. Pattern of cell growth,toxin production and by-product synthesis

To develop a cost-effective process for the production of Bacillus thuringiensis-based insecticide, it is important to cultivate the bacterial strain in rich medium to obtain the highest yields of spore-crystal complexes. It was found that cultivation of the bacterium in medium with high concentrations of glucose (50–90 g l^?1) resulted in much lower bacterial spores, crystal protein and lower toxicity, when tested against Spodoptera littoralis and Anagasta kuehniella larvae. The best results were obtained with glucose concentration of 20.0 g 1^?1 as 7.1 × 10¹¹ spores ml^?1 and 3.4 g l^?1 of crystal protein were achieved with LC₅₀ of 40.1 and 50.2 mg kg^?1 meal against S. littoralis and A. kuehniella, respectively. However, >21% of the consumed glucose was diverted into by-product synthesis at the expense of spore-crystal protein mixture. Only 78.3% of consumed glucose was converted into spores and crystal protein. Among by-products formed, acetic acid and β-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) were produced during the phase of active growth and glutamic acid and succinic acid during the phase of active toxin production.     

Soil amendment with city sewage sludge increases soil extractable cadmium,nickel and zinc more than tannery,pharmaceutical and paper mill wastes

Abstract

The distribution of DTPA-extractable Cd, Ni and Zn in four profile samples collected from areas contaminated with wastes from tannery, city sewage, pharmaceutical and paper mills located at different places in Bangladesh was investigated. Soil samples were analysed for the total and their DTPA-extractable metal contents. The total concentration of metals in the soil horizons ranged from 0.07 to 0.62 mg kg^?1 for Cd, 31 to 54 mg kg^?1 for Ni and 59 to 838 mg kg^?1 for Zn, respectively. These metal concentrations were highest in the surface and lowest in the subsurface horizons. This trend was also observed for the DTPA-extractable amounts of these metals. The relative extractability, expressed as the ratio of DTPA to total contents (aqua regia-extractable) was 33 to 46% for Cd, 2 to 10% for Ni and 3 to 28% for Zn, respectively, in the A1 horizon, while in the B and C horizons the ratios decreased gradually as did total concentration, indicating that metal contamination was primarily limited to the surface horizon. For all three metals, the above mentioned ratio was highest in the city sewage soil and the lowest in the paper mill soil. In general, the extent of contamination among the profiles investigated was in the following order: city sewage>tannery>pharmaceutical>paper mill soil. Higher ratios of DTPA-extractable Cd, Ni and Zn in the city sewage soil than the other soils may create a risk for the contamination of agricultural products and ground water.

Production and Physicochemical Characterization of Gelatin and Collagen Hydrolysates from Turbot Skin Waste Generated by Aquaculture Activities

Rising trends in fish filleting are increasing the amount of processing by-products, such as skins of turbot, a flatfish of high commercial value. In line with circular economy principles, we propose the valorization of turbot skins through a two-step process: initial gelatin extraction described for the first time in turbot, followed by hydrolysis of the remaining solids to produce collagen hydrolysates. We assayed several methods for gelatin extraction, finding differences in gelatin properties depending on chemical treatment and temperature. Of all methods, the application of NaOH, sulfuric, and citric acids at 22 °C results in the highest gel strength (177 g), storage and loss moduli, and gel stability. We found no relation between mechanical properties and content of pyrrolidine amino acids, but the best performing gelatin displays higher structural integrity, with less than 30% of the material below 100 kDa. Collagen hydrolysis was more efficient with papain than alcalase, leading to a greater reduction in Mw of the hydrolysates, which contain a higher proportion of essential amino acids than gelatin and show high in vitro anti-hypertensive activity. These results highlight the suitability of turbot skin by-products as a source of gelatin and the potential of collagen hydrolysates as a functional food and feed ingredient.
