Surimi gel is a commonly found gelled product in Japan. Disintegration of the surimi gel is mainly caused by proteolytic degradation of the myosin heavy chain (MHC) under an inappropriate heating process. Many studies have reported the decrease in MHC in the disintegrated surimi gel but the mechanistic details of this degradation remain unclear. This study employed peptidomic analysis of disintegrated surimi gels from deep-sea bonefish to reveal the MHC cleavage causing gel disintegration. More peptides derived from an MHC rod were found in the disintegrated surimi gels than in the integrated gel. Most MHC peptides were derived from the Src homology 3 domain or near the skip residues. The results of the terminome analysis suggest that the catalytic type of the proteases is responsible for light meromyosin cleavage activated at ∼35 °C. These results showed the temperature-dependent cleavage of the MHC rod, causing disintegration of the surimi gel.

This work aimed to elucidate the deterioration mechanisms of shrimp surimi gels during refrigerated storage, and the regulatory mechanisms of epigallocatechin-3-gallate loaded cyclodextrin-based metal-organic framework (EGCG@CD-MOF) as a model antioxidant. Labele-free proteomics provided a quantitative analysis of the differential proteomic signatures of degraded proteins. Structural proteins, like myosin, paramyosin, titin, laminin, and α-actinin, along with calcium regulatory proteins, like calcineurin and sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein were found to be highly susceptible to oxidative degradation during refrigeration.

Rinsing during surimi protein processing can result in the loss of essential nutrients, such as fats and minerals. Therefore, supplementing functional fats in a stable form can make up for the fat loss of surimi during the rinsing process. This research aimed to investigate the effects of incorporating pre-emulsified flaxseed oil with different concentrations of rutin (0, 0.

Starch has been recognized as a vital ingredient in surimi products due to its ability to absorb water, which reduces the deterioration of gels and water loss during freezing and thawing. However, it is essential to ascertain the role of starch in the formation of ice crystals and the texture of surimi gels. The impact of freeze-thaw cycles on the morphology and distribution of ice crystals, as well as the textural characteristics of gelatinized and ungelatinized starch-surimi gels was investigated.

This study explored the effect of lactoferrin (LF)-stabilized fish oil Pickering high internal phase emulsions (HIPPEs) on the gel property and 3D printing performance of skipjack tuna surimi compared with directly added fish oil. Based on the various environmental stress stability, HIPPEs could remain relatively stable when added to surimi gels. The luminance and whiteness of skipjack tuna surimi gel were significantly (p < 0.
