Atmospheric cold plasma (ACP) is under investigation for an extensive range of biocontrol applications in food biosystems. However, the development of a novel intervention technology requires a thorough evaluation of the potential for negative effects and the implications for the human and animal food chains’ safety. The evaluations were performed using a contained, high-voltage, dielectric barrier discharge plasma system. The cytotoxicity of two types of food models—a liquid model (wheat model medium (WMM)) vs. a solid model (wheat grain extract (WGE)) was compared in vitro using the mammalian cell line CHO-K1. The residual toxicity of ACP treatment of grains for …


Characterization Of Antimicrobial Effects Of Plasma-Treated Water (Ptw) Produced By Microwave-Induced Plasma (Midiplexc) On Pseudomonas Fluorescens Biofilms, Oliver Handorf, Viktoria Isabella Pauker, Thomas Weihe, Eric Freund, Sander Bekeschus, Katharina Riedel, Uta Schnabel, Jörg Ehlbeck Jan 2020

stract: For the decontamination of surfaces in the food production industry, plasma generated compounds (PGCs) such as plasma-treated water (PTW) or plasma processed air (PPA) offer many promising possibilities for future applications. Therefore, the antimicrobial effect of water treated with microwave-induced plasma (MidiPLexc) on Pseudomonas fluorescensbiofilms was investigated. 10 ml deionized water was treated with the MidiPLexc plasma source for 100 s, 300 s and 900 s (pre-treatment time) and the bacterial biofilms were exposed to the PTW for 1 min, 3 min and 5 min (post treatment time). To investigate the influence of PTW on P. fluorescensbiofilms, microbiological assays …


Effects Of Cold Atmospheric Plasma On Mackerel Lipid And Protein Oxidation During Storage, Juan M. Pérez-Andrés, María De Alba, Sabine M Harrison, Nigel P. Brunton, Patrick J. Cullen, Brijesh K. Tiwari Jan 2020

Effects Of Cold Atmospheric Plasma On Mackerel Lipid And Protein Oxidation During Storage, Juan M. Pérez-Andrés, María De Alba, Sabine M Harrison, Nigel P. Brunton, Patrick J. Cullen, Brijesh K. Tiwari

The present study investigated the effects of cold atmospheric plasma on the shelf-life stability of lipids andproteins of commercially packaged mackerelfillets. The results showed no significant effects on lipid oxidationbetween the control samples and those treated at 80 kV for extended treatment times of 5 min using an in-package plasma system. In addition, no significant changes (p > 0.05) were found in the fatty acid compositionor nutritional quality indices after treatment. Finally, the formation of carbonyls was accelerated by plasmatreatment at the end of the storage period for 4 °C and 8 °C. These results suggest that cold atmospheric plasmatechnologies are …

The safety and quality of cereal grain supplies are adversely impacted by microbiological contamination, with novel interventions required to maximise whole grains safety and stability. The microbiological contaminants of wheat grains and the efficacy of Atmospheric Cold Plasma (ACP) for potential to control these risks were investigated. The evaluations were performed using a contained reactor dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) system; samples were treated for 0–20 min using direct and indirect plasma exposure. Amplicon-based metagenomic analysis using bacterial 16S rRNA gene and fungal 18S rRNA gene with internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region was performed to characterize the change in microbial community …


The Effect Of Lauric Arginate On The Thermal Inactivation Of Starved Listeria Monocytogenes In Sous-Vide Cooked Ground Beef, Vijay K. Juneja, Marangeli Osoria, Uma Tiwari, Xinran Xu, Chase E. Golden, Sudarsan Mukhopadhyay, Abhinav Mishra Jan 2020

The Effect Of Lauric Arginate On The Thermal Inactivation Of Starved Listeria Monocytogenes In Sous-Vide Cooked Ground Beef, Vijay K. Juneja, Marangeli Osoria, Uma Tiwari, Xinran Xu, Chase E. Golden, Sudarsan Mukhopadhyay, Abhinav Mishra

Articles

The aim of this study was to examine the efficacy of lauric arginate (LAE, 1000 ppm – 3000 ppm) as an assisting tool to reduce starved Listeria monocytogenes population in ground beef following sous-vide processing at different temperatures (55–62.5 °C). Ground beef mixed with LAE was vacuum sealed and a laboratory water bath was used for sous-vide cooking. Loglinear and Weibull models were fit to the survival microbial population and the D and Z-values were determined at 55–62.5 °C. Calculated D-values ranged from 33.62 to 3.22 min at temperature 55–62.5 °C. LAE at higher concentration is an effective antimicrobial to …
