Because of low levels of Salmonella in food, a pre-enrichment step in PCR-based method for the detection of Salmonella is usually included. To investigate a simple and rapid pre-enrichment protocol, four strains of Salmonella in food were pre-enriched. The first step was to confirm whether shaking during pre-enrichment had any beneficial effects on the number increase of number of Salmonellae than not shaking. The second step was to examine whether MM broth would be superior to BPW broth in supporting the growth of Salmonella. The third step compared the enrichment effects at 6, 8, and 24 h of incubation in BPW broth. The results showed that shaking culture has no beneficial effect on the growth of Salmonella after 6 and 8 h of incubation (p > 0.05). However, after incubation for 24 h the shaking effect is prominence (p < 0.01). Similarly, there is no difference between MM and BPW broths after 6 and 8 h of incubation (p>0.05), but after 24 h the effect of MM broth is very significantly increased (p>0.01). During the incubation in BPW broth, the enrichment effect after 8 h is significantly higher than after 6 h (p>0.01) and it after 24 h is also significantly higher than after 8 h (p>0.01). In conclusion, shaking culture and MM broth are unable to promote the increase of Salmonella number, therefore the optimized protocol is to pre-rich Salmonella with still culture in BPW broth at 37 ℃ for 8 h.

A high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed to establish the fingerprint of wines, and 36 samples from various manufacturers and various batches in Jiangxi province were analyzed. In this study, the technique of projection discriminance based on principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis (CA) was used to differentiate and evaluate the fingerprints, and then, PCA was also employed to handle the data of the common chromatographic fingerprints pattern to reduce the number of variables, thus optimizing back-propagation network (BPN), which was applied to predict the attribution of unknown samples. The results on PCA and CA showed that there are definite differences among the wine samples produced by different manufacturers, based on which a method can be established to distinguish wine samples produced by different manufacturers, and the developed method can provide some scientific basis for the quality control of wines. And then, PCA was secondly adopted to optimize back-propagation network. The multiple predicted results manifested that the optimized network has high accuracy and good stability. PCA-BPN technology can be used to predict correctly the attribution of unknown samples.

In order to quest an approach to measure sugar content of kiwifruit rapidly and nondestructively, wavelet denoising was used to preprocess the near infrared (NIR) spectra (1000 to 2500 nm) of kiwifruit. Partial least square (PLS), interval partial least square (iPLS) and synergy interval partial least square (siPLS) methods were used to establish the calibration models of sugar content. Experimental results showed that the optimal siPLS model is obtained with 16 intervals and the optimal combinations of intervals are number 9, 11 and 13. The model is achieved with correlation coefficient 0.9414 and root mean square error of cross validation (RMSECV) 0.3788 in calibration set and correlation coefficient 0.9295 and RMSEP 0.3904 in prediction set, and its factor number is 7. This study demonstrated that NIR spectroscopy with siPLS model could not only diminish run time and select the optimal intervals, but also improve precision.

Some typical fruit and vegetable such as tomato, cucumber and Brassica chinensis L. var. communis were chosen to investigate the principle of a series of concentrations of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 50 μl /L of nitric oxide (NO) degradation in air and in the presence of fruit or vegetable. The results showed that in the initial period, the rate of loss of NO is much higher than that in the later period. The higher the initial NO concentration is, the rate of loss of NO becomes higher in the initial period. The rate of NO loss is much higher in the presence of fruit or vegetable than in air. Meanwhile the NO/O2 system produces high concentration of nitrogen dioxide (NO2). When the initial NO concentration is higher, the peak value of NO2 becomes higher. While the presence of fruit or vegetable is able to control the accumulation of NO2.

A novel chitosan-based coating was developed through orthogonal test with inferior Chinese winter jujube used as experimental material and loss of vitamin C as a indicator. The results showed that the best formula of coating is 1.5% of chitosan, 1% of citric acid, 2% of whey protein and 0.3% of CaCl2. The quality of fresh-cut winter jujube is improved significantly by chitosan-based coating treatment, which is stored at 2 ℃. The coating can strongly inhibit the numbers of total bacteria, yeast, mold and E.coli, prevent microbial contamination, reduce the degradation and transformation of nutrients, and decrease the content of total sugar and soluble protein. The activities of some antioxidant enzymes (CAT, POD and SOD) also indicated that the treatment of chitosan-based coating can prevent the quality degradation of fresh-cut Chinese winter jujube.
