The objective of this study was to improve the rheological (storage modulus G'; phase angle δ) and textural (hardness; breaking force) properties of nitrite-cured sausage batters prepared from pale, soft, exudative (PSE) pork with microbial transglutaminase (TG) using isolated myofibrillar protein (MP) or MP extracted by sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) as substrates. While TG alone significantly enhanced G', δ and hardness, its combination with TPP was more pronounced as these product quality parameters were increased to the level equal to that of the counterpart batter made from normal (red, firm, non-exudative, RFN) pork. The addition of MP had negligible such effect on TG functions. Cooking loss of TG-treated RFN and PSE meat with TPP was minimal but the batters were less bright (L*) than other treatments. Redness (a*) was variable between treatments. Therefore, texture-related properties of comminuted PSE meat products can be restored to the RFN level by TG cross-linking of protein that is extracted by TPP.

Mutations in the ANXA11 gene, encoding an RNA-binding protein, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), but the underlying in vivo mechanisms remain unclear. This study examines the clinical features of ALS patients harboring the ANXA11 hotspot mutation p.P36R, characterized by late-onset motor neuron disease and occasional multi-system involvement.

The implementation of innovative techniques to achieve low-salt strategies in cured products is a critical issue faced by the food industry. This study aimed to investigate the impact of ultrasound treatment on the quality of the low-salt air-dried fish. The results showed that compared to traditional liquid curing, ultrasound-assisted curing significantly increased the NaCl transfer rate, improved tenderness, and improved water retention and in vitro digestibility (p < 0.

Background: Pickering emulsions prepared with octenyl succinic anhydride-modified starch (OSAS) show significant promise as replacements for animal fat. However, the underlying mechanism of incorporating an OSAS-based Pickering emulsion into a myofibrillar protein (MP) gel and its impact on the gel properties remain poorly understood. In this study, the effects of OSAS at varying concentrations (0-10.

Marinating is a crucial stage in meat processing. However, traditional marinating takes a long time and is prone to nutrient loss. Pulsed electric field (PEF) technology, an innovative non-thermal processing method, has been shown to improve the efficiency of meat marinating.
