Electron-beam irradiation (EBI) is an efficient, safe, and nonthermal sterilization technique that is extensively used in food preservation research. Here we report the effects of different EBI doses (0, 4, 8 kGy) and preservation temperatures (room temperature [RT], 4 °C) on the muscle water distribution and muscle quality indices of silver carp chunks (SCCs). The highest entrapped water content was found in the 4-kGy-irradiated/4-°C-stored samples. The expressible moisture content (EMC) of the SCCs increased with increasing irradiation dose and was significantly lower in the RT group than in the 4 °C group. The irradiation dose and preservation temperature had no significant effect on the moisture content, whiteness value and protein content of SCCs (p > 0.05). When the irradiation dose reached 8 kGy, AV value, POV value and TVB value were significantly increased (p < 0.05). The myofibrillar protein content and actomyosin content of the SCCs in the 4 °C group was higher than that of the specimens in the RT group by 0.29−0.98 mg/mL (p < 0.05) and 36.21−296.58 μg/mL (p < 0.05), respectively. Overall, EBI treatment (4 kGy) and low-temperature preservation (4 °C) helped retain the muscle water content of the SCCs and preserve their quality, thereby endorsing the EBI treatment of silver carp products.

This study employed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and lipidomic approaches to analyze volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and lipid dynamics in silver carp visceral fish oil during accelerated oxidation at 60 °C. The lipidomic profiling revealed 1362 distinct lipid molecules, encompassing 92 fatty acids. Triglycerides (TGs) underwent degradation in the early oxidation phase (0-6 days), whereas glycerophospholipid breakdown dominated the later stages (9-20 days).

A novel bacterial strain, designated Dechloromonas aquae ZY10, was isolated from the aquaculture water of grass carp. The colonies exhibited diameters ranging from approximately 1 to 3 mm and were characterized by a creamy-white coloration, circular shape, smooth texture, translucency, and a convex profile. The cells were facultatively anaerobic and motile, utilizing a single polar flagellum for movement.

The objective of this work was to investigate the impact of calcium hydrogen phosphate (CHP), curdlan gum (CUR), and TGase (TG) on the digestion and absorption of surimi gel. In this study, an In vitro digestion model combined with C57BL/6 mice was used to analyze digestive and absorbed juices comprehensively. The results showed that the addition of CHP and CUR surimi products showed a decreasing trend in the α-helix content in the secondary structure of substrate proteins after digestion, which slowed down the In vitro digestibility of surimi gel by 4.

Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in water environments and can affect gut microbiota and host metabolism of fish, but whether changes in host metabolism under MPs are mediated by gut microbiota remains unclear. Here, silver carp, a filter-feeding fish with important ecological functions, was in-situ exposure to environmentally relevant MPs. Multi-omics analysis and fecal microbiota transplantation were used to reveal the metabolic responses of carp along gut-liver-muscle axis.
