Reducing the undesirable odor of barley by cooking with superheated steam.

ABSTRACT: Superheated steam was used to cook barley and the volatile odor compounds and release of odorants from the steamed barley were analyzed. The main odor compounds in cooked barley were aldehydes (hexanal and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal) and acids (acetic acid and hexanoic acid). Compared to ordinary cooked barley, barley cooked by superheated steam had less odorants, and the release of odorants was reduced by almost half. Sensory evaluation revealed that this barley was preferred to ordinary cooked barley, because it had weaker smell and tasted less sour and less bitter. The steaming process steam distils and eliminates some odor compounds, while some water-soluble compounds (mainly acids) are washed away by water during steaming. Therefore, this steam cooking method, applied to barley for the first time here using a comprehensive analysis, improves the acceptability and palatability of this high-quality food rich in dietary fiber.

Effect of Cooking with Superheated (SHS) vs. Standard Steam Oven on the Fatty Acids Profile of Different Kinds of Meat and Fish.

Project description:We compared the effect of two different kinds of steam oven-a standard (SO) and a superheated steam (SHS) oven-on four different kinds of samples: hamburgers, bovine steaks, pork steaks, and salmon fillets. Ten samples of each meat/fish were divided into three parts. Then samples were analyzed as (i) raw, (ii) cooked with SO, and (iii) cooked with SHS. For each sample, we determined the proximate composition, fatty acid composition and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS). The results of fatty acid composition were processed both with a linear model and with a multivariate approach by using three complementary discriminant analysis techniques: canonical (CAN), stepwise (St) and discriminant (DA). SHS was effective in degreasing hamburgers but not the other kinds of samples. Cooking methods selectively affected the fatty acid profile of samples, SHS being higher in MUFA and lower in PUFA n-3 than SO. This result was also confirmed by the discriminant analysis. Finally, samples cooked with SHS showed a lower fatty acid oxidation extent than SO, as the TBARS value was significantly lower in the SHS than in the SO, irrespective of the type of meat/fish cooked.

Effect of Superheated Steam Treatment on Rice Quality, Structure, and Physicochemical Properties of Starch.

Project description:This study aimed to investigate the effect of superheated steam treatment on the cooking and eating quality of rice, and further explore the effect of superheated steam treatment on the structure, gel properties, and rheological behavior of rice starch. After superheated steam treatment, the optimal cooking time of rice was effectively reduced by 26.9%, and the taste value of rice was significantly improved, from 78.45 to 84.20, when treated at 155 °C for 10 s. Superheated steam treatment significantly reduced the amylose and protein content, and increased the average particle size of rice starch. Compared with the control, the enthalpy change (ΔH) in the superheated steam treatment rice starch decreased notably from 6.53 to 5.28 after treatment, the relative crystallinity of the starch was significantly reduced from 21.20 to 10.89, and the short-term order of the starch was enhanced owing to the rearrangement of starch molecules after gelatinization. The starch structure was more compact and orderly after the superheated steam treatment, which significantly improved the hardness, viscoelasticity, and strength of the gel. These results indicate that superheated steam treatment improves the quality of rice by changing the structure of rice starch.

Modification of oil palm mesocarp fiber characteristics using superheated steam treatment.

Project description:In this study, oil palm mesocarp fiber (OPMF) was treated with superheated steam (SHS) in order to modify its characteristics for biocomposite applications. Treatment was conducted at temperatures 190-230 °C for 1, 2 and 3 h. SHS-treated OPMF was evaluated for its chemical composition, thermal stability, morphology and crystallinity. OPMF treated at 230 °C exhibited lower hemicellulose content (9%) compared to the untreated OPMF (33%). Improved thermal stability of OPMF was found after the SHS treatment. Moreover, SEM and ICP analyses of SHS-treated OPMF showed that silica bodies were removed from OPMF after the SHS treatment. XRD results exhibited that OPMF crystallinity increased after SHS treatment, indicating tougher fiber properties. Hemicellulose removal makes the fiber surface more hydrophobic, whereby silica removal increases the surface roughness of the fiber. Overall, the results obtained herewith suggested that SHS is an effective treatment method for surface modification and subsequently improving the characteristics of the natural fiber. Most importantly, the use of novel, eco-friendly SHS may contribute to the green and sustainable treatment for surface modification of natural fiber.

Optimizing the extraction of essential oil yield from Pistacia lentiscus oleo-gum resin by superheated steam extraction using response surface methodology.

Project description:Pistacia lentiscus L. is an aromatic plant containing a significant percentage of essential oil (EO) used in fragrance, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and the food industry. The purpose of this work is focused on the optimization of Pistacia lentiscus L. oleo gum resin EO yield extracted by superheated steam extraction (SHSE) by response surface methodology, including extraction parameters of particle size (0. 5 - 1 mm), temperature (140-180 °C) and time (90-150 min). The optimum conditions for Pistacia lentiscus L. EO extracted by SHSE were found to be (particle size: 0.75 mm, time: 120 min and temperature: 160 ℃) which produced the highest EO yield of 5.7%. A regression model was developed, demonstrating a robust quadratic correlation with an R2 value of 0.9991, making it suitable for predictions. Furthermore, the yield of Pistacia lentiscus L. EO extracted by SHSE was compared with the conventional steam and hydro distillation techniques. The study revealed that SHSE yielded higher quantities of EO than other extraction methods. GC-MS analyzed the chemical composition of Pistacia lentiscus L. EO. The predominant compound of Pistacia lentiscus L. EO was determined to be α-pinene, while the other identified compounds include trans-verbenol, verbenol, cis-verbenone, camphene, β-myrcene, d-limonene, cymene, α-myrtenol, α-campholenal, α-copaene, and α-thujene, whose content differed according to different extraction techniques. Overall, superheated steam extraction is an efficient technique for extracting Pistacia lentiscus L. essential oil that enhances EO yield, requiring less time for extraction.

A Comprehensive Study on the Influence of Superheated Steam Treatment on Lipolytic Enzymes, Physicochemical Characteristics, and Volatile Composition of Lightly Milled Rice.

Project description:Enzyme inactivation is crucial for enhancing the shelf life of lightly milled rice (LMR), yet the impact of diverse superheated steam (SS) treatment conditions on lipolytic enzyme efficiency, physicochemical properties, and volatile profiles of LMR remains unclear. This study investigated varying SS conditions, employing temperatures of 120 °C, 140 °C, and 160 °C and exposure times of 2, 4, 6, and 8 min. The research aimed to discern the influence of these conditions on enzyme activities, physicochemical characteristics, and quality attributes of LMR. Results indicated a significant rise in the inactivation rate with increased treatment temperature or duration, achieving a notable 70% reduction in enzyme activities at 120 °C for 6 min. Prolonged exposure to higher temperatures also induced pronounced fissures on LMR surfaces. Furthermore, intensive SS treatment led to a noteworthy 5.52% reduction in the relative crystallinity of LMR starch. GC/MS analysis revealed a consequential decrease, ranging from 44.7% to 65.7%, in undesirable odor ketones post-SS treatment. These findings underscore the potential of SS treatment in enhancing the commercial attributes of LMR.

Characterizing and Exploring the Formation Mechanism of Salt Deposition by Reusing Advanced-softened, Silica-rich, Oilfield-produced Water (ASOW) in Superheated Steam Pipeline.

Project description:To dispose of large volumes of oilfield-produced water, an environmentally friendly method that reuses advanced-softened, silica-rich, oilfield-produced water (ASOW) as feedwater was implemented via a 10-month pilot-scale test in oilfield. However, salt deposition detrimental to the efficiency and security of steam injection system was generated in superheated steam pipeline. To evaluate the method, the characteristics and formation mechanism of the deposition were explored. The silicon content and total hardness of the ASOW were 272.20 mg/L and 0.018 mg/L, respectively. Morphology and composition of the deposition were determined by scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS), inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), laser Raman spectroscopy (LRS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Na2Si2O5, Na2CO3 and trace silanes were identified in the deposition. In addition, the solubility of the deposition was about 99%, suggesting that it is very different from traditional scaling. The results of a simulation experiment and thermal analysis system (TGA and TG-FTIR) proved that Na2CO3 and Si(OH)4 (gas) are involved in the formation of Na2Si2O5, which is ascribed mainly to the temperature difference between the superheated steam and the pipe wall. These findings provide an important reference for improving the reuse of ASOW and reducing its deposition.

Impact of steam cooking on the chemical profile of table-stock sweetpotatoes with different carotenoids content.

Project description:Sweetpotatoes are a great source of carotenoids, which are important for human health and have attracted increasing attention. This study examined the impact of the steaming method on the contents of carotenoids, starch, soluble sugar, volatile organic compounds, and pasting properties of nine table-stock sweetpotatoes with different carotenoids content (from 3.21 to 233.46 μg/g). After steaming, carotenoids content was significantly decreased, among which G79 and P32 had the highest levels of 88.20 μg/g and 94.27 μg/g, respectively. The starch content of G42 decreased the most (20 %) with the highest peak viscosity (1764.33 cP), while the amylose content of P32 increased the most (12.59 %) with the lowest peak viscosity (441.33 cP). The contents of total starch and amylose were significantly correlated with sensory evaluation. G79 presented the best sensory evaluation and a sweet, delicious, and soft texture. A total of 57 volatile organic compounds were detected, among which benzene, a few aldehydes, and terpenoids contributed to the aroma of steamed sweetpotatoes. These results provide a theoretical foundation for future sweetpotato processing.

In vitro cytotoxicity of superheated steam hydrolyzed oligo((R)-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-(R)-3-hydroxyhexanoate) and characteristics of its blend with poly(L-lactic acid) for biomaterial applications.

Project description:In order to clarify the in vitro cytotoxicity effect of superheated steam (SHS) treated poly((R)-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-(R)-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBHHx) for biomaterial applications, SHS-treated PHBHHx oligoester samples: P(HB-co-6%-HHx) and P(HB-co-11%-HHx) with low and high percentages of unsaturated chain ends were evaluated for their cytotoxicity effects toward the growth of mouse fibroblast cell line NIH 3T3. From the results obtained after 24 and 48 h of the growth test, the SHS-treated PHBHHx oligoesters were found to be nontoxic to the growth of mouse fibroblast NIH 3T3 cell line with cell viability percentages of more than 95%. In order to serve as a potential resorbable medical suture, PHBHHx oligoesters were blended with poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) with a weight ratio of PHBHHx oligoester/PLLA = 20:80 (wt/wt) to improve mechanical properties of PHBHHx oligoesters. The PHBHHx oligoesters/PLLA blend films were evaluated for their thermal, mechanical, and surface wetting properties. Thermal properties of the blend films suggested a good compatibility between PHBHHx oligoesters and PLLA components. Mechanical properties of the blend films were determined to be close enough to a desirable strength range of medical sutures. Moreover, contact angle range of 65 < θ < 70° for the blend samples could provide desirable cell adhesion when used as biomaterials. Therefore, the blend of SHS-treated PHBHHx oligoesters and PLLA would be an ideal choice to be used as biomedical materials.

Cooking Methods for Preserving Isothiocyanates and Reducing Goitrin in Brassica Vegetables.

Project description:Glucosinolates in Brassica vegetables can be hydrolyzed into various products, e.g., chemopreventive agents, isothiocyanates (ITCs) and anti-thyroid substance, goitrin. Cooking can reduce goitrin but destroy isothiocyanates. This study aimed to optimize cooking conditions for reducing goitrin while preserving isothiocyanates in Brassica vegetables. Cabbage and Chinese kale samples were divided evenly into raw, blanched, steamed, and water-based stir-fried samples. Cooking temperature and time were varied at 60, 80, or 100 °C for 2, 4, or 6 min. The levels of goitrin, benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC), and sulforaphane (SFN) were measured using LC-MS/MS. Response surface model (RSM) was used to identify the optimal cooking conditions to reduce goitrin but preserve ITCs. Results showed that goitrin content in cabbage depended on the cooking methods, temperature, and time, while that of Chinese kale only depended on the methods. In contrast, the concentrations of SFN in cabbage and BITC in kale depended on the cooking temperature and time but not methods. Based on RSM analysis, the suggested household cooking methods for preserving isothiocyanates and reducing goitrin are steaming cabbage at 80-100 °C for 4 min and stir-frying Chinese kale at 60-100 °C for 2 min. Such methods may preserve the bioactive compounds while reducing food hazards.

Efficacy of the Feliway® Classic Diffuser in reducing undesirable scratching in cats: A randomised, triple-blind, placebo-controlled study.

Project description:Scratching the environment is a natural behaviour that cats use for communication and physical maintenance purposes, however when it is carried out on household furniture it is considered unacceptable for some owners and even grounds for relinquishment of cats. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of FELIWAY® Classic Diffuser in reducing undesirable scratching (scratching vertical surfaces indoors other than the scratching post) in cats. A 28 day, randomised, triple-blind, placebo-controlled study with a total of 1060 caregiver-cat dyads was conducted. The study contained two groups: the Pheromone Group consisted of caregivers who were given a pheromone diffuser (n = 546) and the Placebo Group consisted of caregivers who were given a placebo diffuser (n = 514). A questionnaire with three subsections was distributed online. The first section, completed by the respondents at day 0, inquired about the cats' daily routines, social and physical environments, behaviour, temperament, and emotional states. The second section filled on day 0, 7, 14, and 28, assessed the Frequency and the Intensity of the undesirable scratching problem and the effectiveness of the product. The last section, filled on the 28th day of the product application, related to the caregivers' opinions about the product and overall outcome. After 28 days the scratching Frequency reduced for 83.5% of the cats in the Pheromone Group and 68.5% for the Placebo Group (p<0.0001). The Intensity was significantly different between treatment groups at D7 (p = 0.0170), at D14 (p = 0.0189) and at D28 (p<0.001). The reduction of the Global Index Score, which was calculated by multiplying the Intensity with the Frequency, was significantly higher for the Pheromone Group (p<0.001). This study provides direct evidence that the use of FELIWAY® Classic diffuser significantly reduces the Frequency, Intensity and the Global Index Score of undesirable scratching.
