Article Synopsis
- This study explored the use of chitosan, a natural and biodegradable material, to improve the preservation of perishable foods through the development of chitosan-based composite membranes.
- Researchers modified lignin with a solvent fractionation method and clinoptilolite zeolite using alkali modification, ultimately finding that specific combinations of modified lignin (ML3) and zeolite (MCZ3) enhanced the properties of chitosan membranes.
- The improved composite membranes demonstrated better light transmittance, antioxidant activity, and gas selectivity, leading to more effective preservation of foods like bananas, cherry tomatoes, and cheeses, indicating the potential for eco-friendly packaging solutions.
Unlabelled: To evaluate the role of Maillard reactions in the generation of flavor compounds in Jinhua ham, the reactions of glucose and ethanal with histidine and lysine, respectively, were studied by simulating the ripening conditions of Jinhua ham. The volatile products produced were analyzed using solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The results showed that 8 volatile compounds were generated by the reaction of glucose and histidine and 10 volatile compounds were generated by the reaction of glucose and lysine.
