Abstract

The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of garlic oil (GO) and tartaric acid (TA) on microbiological, pH, and Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS) (lipid peroxidation) of shrimp stored at 4°C. Shrimp of 2 kg were dipped in GO and TA solutions at 1:2 shrimp/treatment solutions (w/w) for 30 min under 25ºC. Sodium metabisulfite (MBS) and sterile distilled water (dH20) were used as positive and negative controls, respectively. Shrimp were drip-dried for 5 min, packaged, and stored in a chiller (4°C) for 10 days. The shrimp were analysed on days 0, 3, 5, 7, and 10. Total aerobic plate count, psychotropic bacteria count, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) and Vibrio parahaemolyticus counts ranged from 3.52-8.73 log CFU/g, 3.30-5.16 log CFU/g, 3.48-7.60 log CFU/g, 3.42-6.34 log CFU/g and 3.48-5.55 log CFU/g, respectively. The pH of shrimp ranged from 6.64 to 8.03. The pH of shrimp dipped in MBS (7.70) and TA+GO (7.70) was lowest at the end of storage period. TBARS values ranged from 0.70-2.66 and TBARS values for shrimp treated with MBS (1.83) were lowest at day 10. In general, microbiological counts, pH and TBARS values of sample treated with TA+GO increased with storage time, however comparable to MBS. Treatment of shrimp with GO and TA could inhibit the growth of foodborne pathogens. The pH of the test and control shrimp were similar on day 10. Lipid peroxidation was lowest for TA and MBS treated shrimp by day 10.

Abstract

Seafood-borne outbreaks caused by Vibrio cholerae have led to the increased need for food safety risk assessment of marine products. An in silico investigation about the potential of virulence gene of V. cholerae, rtxA, as a DNA biomarker of the toxigenic bacterium has been carried out. The aim of this study was to use the bacterial DNA biomarker sequence as a tool to facilitate early rapid detection of cholera infection. Five specific pairs of primers were designed from the rtxA open reading frame DNA of V. cholerae O1 biovar El Tor str. N16961 genomic DNA using Primer3Plus. Next, in silico Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) assay was carried out using the newly designed primers and 25 genomic DNA of vibrio spp. retrieved from the in silico database. One of the five designed pairs of primers, RtxAOF-RtxAOR: ‘5-CGCAAAACAGTTTCAGCCGA-3’ and 5’-AGGTTGGTCTTTTGTGGCCA-3’, could result in single DNA amplicon sized 518 bp only from V. cholerae species. No amplicon bands were produced from 17 other vibrio genomes studied using similar RtxAF-RtxAR primers. A further check showed that the amplicon was indeed part of the rtxA gene of V. cholerae. Based on this in silico study, rtxA gene appeared to be a DNA biomarker of V. cholerae, which is potential to facilitate rapid diagnosis of the virulence bacterium using in silico PCR assay.

Abstract

A natural product such as chitosan promotes health benefits and extends the shelf life of the processed products. Chitosan has been used as a food additive due to its antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. This study was conducted to optimize the chitosan concentration as a coating agent on the quality and shelf life of Labeo rohita fillets during frozen storage. Chitosan (CH) solutions were prepared with 0.5 %, 1 %, and 2 % (w/v) CH in 1 % (v/v) glacial acetic acid for coating application. The control (0% CH) and CH treated fish fillets were stored at -18 °C for 14 weeks and assessed for chemical (pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), and K-value), microbiological (aerobic plate count (APC)), and sensory properties. The pH, TBARS, and K-value of 1 % and 2 % CH treated fish fillets were acceptable up to 14th week of storage, while TVB-N value was permissible up to 12th week of  storage.  After 14th  week of  storage, the APC of control, 0.5 %, 1 %, and 2 % CH treated fillets were 7.18 log CFU/g, 5.02  log CFU/g, 4.13 log CFU/g, and 3.21 log CFU/g, respectively. The  fish  fillets treated with 1 % and 2 % CH had acceptable sensory attributes up to 12th week, while control fillets were unacceptable after the 6th week of storage. This study demonstrated that 1% CH could be used as a natural additive for keeping the quality and extending the shelf life of L. rohita fillets during frozen storage.

Abstract

Pathogenic bacteria are commonly found as natural contaminants in seafood and fish products. Globally, several countries have been imposing strict regulations on the maximum levels of pathogens and consequently require microbial testing of pathogens before the products can be marketed. A culture-based method with biochemical assay has been widely used to detect pathogenic bacteria in food, despite its long and extensive process. Meanwhile, the alternative molecular-based method to overcome this problem, cannot differentiate between viable and nonviable cells, which may lead to underestimation. This study aimed to develop a multiplex PCR (mPCR) method as a confirmatory assay for the culture-based method to detect pathogens in fish products simultaneously. This method applied a pre-enrichment step to ensure the growth of low-level pathogens and the injured cells in the sample. The target genes were ToxR, InvA, and UidA for Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli, respectively. This assay also amplified the 16S rDNA gene of bacteria as an internal control for the PCR reaction. By implementing liquid-based DNA extraction during analysis, the developed-mPCR was comparable to detect the targeted bacteria in artificially-contaminated samples. The method was more sensitive in naturally-contaminated samples, where the number of E. coli, Salmonella spp. and V. parahaemolyticus detected were 28, 7, and 22, respectively. While the conventional method only detected 26, 5, and 19 of the respective pathogens. With a relatively shorter time and lower operation cost, the mPCR method is potential as an alternative for the culture-based method.

Abstract

Golden sea cucumber or locally known as “teripang emas” is one of Indonesia’s most popular sea cucumber and widely processed as functional food or supplement due to its bioactivities. The sea cucumber is often misidentified due to its morphological similarities with other Stichopus spp. This study aimed to identify the golden sea cucumber obtained from West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, by a molecular method and study the antioxidant activities of its collagen hydrolysates. The hydrolysates were produced by hydrolyzing acid collagen extract using neutrase for 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 mins. The products were then analyzed for their degree of hydrolysis, peptide content, molecular weight distribution and radical scavenging activity by the 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. Results showed that hydrolysis for 180 mins was optimal in producing the highest peptide content, 12.79 ± 0.44 mg/mL, with a degree of hydrolysis (DH) of 55.2 ± 1.50%. However, the highest antioxidant activity (IC50 of 5.25 ± 0.15 mg/mL) was demonstrated after 60 mins hydrolysis with molecular weight (MW) ranged from less than 14.4 kDa to approximately 25 kDa. The hydrolysate might be categorized as a weak to moderate antioxidant. Based on the molecular identification, the golden sea cucumber had 99% similarities with Stichopus horrens and S. monotuberculatus.
