Abstract Light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) possess unique properties that are highly suitable for several operations in the food industry. Such include low radiant heat emissions; high emissions of monochromatic light; electrical, luminous, and photon efficiency; long life expectancy, flexibility, mechanical robustness. Therefore, they reduce thermal damage degradation crops foods cold‐storage applications. Control over spectral composition emitted light results increased yields nutritive content...
Abstract Photodynamic inactivation is a phenomenon that has the potential to cause microbial using visible light. It works on principle photosensitizers within cell can be activated specific wavelengths trigger series of cytotoxic reactions. In last few years, efforts apply this intervention technology for food safety have been rise. This review article offers detailed commentary research. The mechanism photodynamic discussed as factors influence its efficacy in food. Efforts inactivate...
Abstract There has been an increasing trend in consumption of sprouts worldwide due to their widespread availability and high nutrient content. However, microbial contamination readily occurs the presence pathogenic bacteria seeds; germination sprouting process provide optimal conditions for bacterial growth. In recent years, there a rise number outbreaks associated with sprouts. These occurred mainly US, Canada, UK, as well Europe. More recently 2011, were 4 sprout‐related outbreaks,...
Abstract: This article reviews current and future techniques that are applied in the meat industry to ensure product safety. Consumer demand for high‐quality food raised economic standards have triggered development of emergent technologies replace traditional well‐established preservation processes. Some promising nonthermal thermal technologies, such as chemical biological interventions, high hydrostatic pressure (HHP), irradiation, active packaging, natural antimicrobials microwave,...
The aim of this study was to elucidate the antibacterial mechanism 405 ± 5-nm light-emitting diode (LED) illumination against Salmonella at 4°C in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) by determining endogenous coproporphyrin content, DNA oxidation, damage membrane function, and morphological change. Gene expression levels, including oxyR, recA, rpoS, sodA, soxR, were also examined understand response LED illumination. results showed that strains responded differently illumination, revealing S....
ABSTRACT The influence of adaptation to pH (from 5.0 9.0) on membrane lipid composition, verotoxin concentration, and resistance acidic conditions in simulated gastric fluid (SGF) (pH 1.5, 37°C) was determined for Escherichia coli O157:H7 (HEC, ATCC 43895), an rpoS -deficient mutant 43895 (HEC-RM, FRIK 816-3), nonpathogenic E. (NPEC, 25922). Regardless the strain, D values (in SGF) acid-adapted cells were higher than those non-acid-adapted cells, with HEC adapted at having greatest value,...
Little information is available on a direct comparison of the antibacterial efficacy light emitting diode (LEDs) different peak wavelengths. Thus, objective this study was to evaluate effect LEDs three wavelengths bacterial inactivation.Lactobacillus plantarum, Staphylococcus aureus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus were illuminated with 405, 460 520 nm at 4, 10 25°C respectively. Inactivation curves plotted fitted using Gompertz Model. Illumination 405 LED produced significant inactivation (P <...
