Abstract
Ultra-high pressure (UHP) and magnetic field (MF) are emerging food preservation technologies, but the research on the effects of combined treatment (UHP-MF) on aquatic products quality is insufficient. Hence, we explored the effects of UHP-MF treatment on the protein properties, microbial action and quality characteristics of stored grass carp fillets. Results showed that 300 MPa UHP treatment combined with MF storage (UHP300-MF) delayed the protein oxidation of stored fillets by inhibiting the accumulation of protein radical and the formation of lipid pro-oxidation products, thus the quality (texture, color) deterioration caused by oxidation was deferred. Additionally, 16S rDNA bacteria flora analysis revealed that UHP300-MF treatment inhibited the flora activity and diversity of fillets, delayed the protein degradation and quality deterioration caused by microbial action. Overall, UHP300-MF treatment suppressed the lipid and protein oxidation as well as microbial action, retarded the quality deterioration, and prolonged the shelf life of stored fillets.
