The effects of salt concentration, starch content and applied voltage on electrical conductivity and ohmic heating rate of starch solution were studied. The characteristics of starch solution during ohmic heating were also investigated. The results showed that the electrical conductivity and the heating up speed of starch solution increase with higher salt concentration, and higher applied voltage; but decrease with higher starch concentration. The electrical conductivity before reaching the gelatinization temperature increases with the increase of temperature, but decreases with the increase of temperature after the gelatinization temperature. There is no prominent change of gelatinization properties during ohmic heating.

In this paper, four yellow pigments in extract of safflower florets (ESF) were isolated and identified by MS. A rapid reversed phase HPLC method was developed for the determination of yellow pigments in ESFs obtained from the samples heated at different temperatures and times by using a binary gradient system. Furthermore, the antioxidant capacity based on the ability to scavenge the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical of ESFs was investigated. The dynamic change of yellow pigments in ESFs was monitored by HPLC. The results obtained showed that the content of yellow pigments in extracts is gradually decreased with increasing temperature. The correlationship between the content of yellow pigments and their antioxi- dant activity is also found.

High ester (methyl) citrus pectin (HM-pectin) was used to produce an amidated pectin under low temperature. Parameters such as galacturonic acid contents, degree of esterification (DE), degree of amidation (DA) and specific viscosity of the amide pectin were assayed. The results indicated that higher concentration of ammonia (4N) at low temperature (5℃) gives lessβ-elimination reaction, with better specific viscosity retained and increases the conversion of methoxyl groups to acid amide groups. Meanwhile a low amidation pectin would be produced with low concentration of ammonia (1N). And within a relatively short time of esterification(40min) at low temperature, either higher concentration or lower concentration processing with ammonia, the parameters such as galacturonic acid contents, degree of esterification (DE), and degree of amidation (DA) in the final products would be in accordance with the regulations for amidated pectin requirements of European Union.

The article studied the killing effects of Instantaneous High Pressure on Bacillus stearothermophilus considering different pressures, times of dealing and the influences of the food substances. The results of the experiments were as follows. ①Instantaneous High Pressure has better effects on killing Bacillus stearothermophilus. With the increase of pressure, the killing rate of Bacillus stearothermophilus increases, but the killing rate of Bacillus stearothermophilus increases a little with the increase of feed-in temperature. When dealing at the temperature 10, 25 and 40℃ respectively for once every time, and with the pressure rising from 80MPa to 120MPa, the killing rate increases from 54.13%, 53.81% and 54.39% to 74.12%, 74.52%, 74.96% respectively. ②With the increase of dealing time, the killing rate of Instantaneous High Pressure on Bacillus stearothermophilus also increases, and the result is more satisfactory with the increase of the dealing times instead of the pressure. Under 25℃, when the pressure of 100, 110 or 120MPa is applied respectively to the sample treated from one to three times respectively, the killing rate of 100MPa is respectively 67.6%, 74.13% and 77.95%; that of 110MPa 71.34%, 76.89% and 80.74% respectively and that of 120MPa 74.52%, 79.58% and 82.08% respectively. ③Food matrix can protect the bacteria from the treatment of Instantaneous High Pressure. To certain concentration, the higher the concentration of food matrix is, the stronger the effect of bacteria-protection. For instances, the disinfected soy milk was added to the bacteria liquid, with different concentrations as 0, 1.5, 3, 4.5 and 6g/100g respectively, while the bacteria was treated with Instantaneous High Pressure with the feed-in temperature 25℃ and the work pressure 100, 110 and 120MPa respectively. The results showed that the killing rates of Bacillusstearothermophilus dropps from 67.6% to 65.73% under 100MPa, from 71.34% to 69.12% under 110MPa and from 74.52% to 72.36% under 120MPa.

Today, brewers are increasingly making use of hop extracts with supercritical CO2 extraction. These products consistently better guarantee quality and significantly longer stability than those of natural hops, and permit a higher utilization rate of hop compounds. The effects on the contents of hop polyphenols in technical parameters with supercritical CO2 extraction on hop were studied. It showed that at the temperature of 40℃, a higher operating pressure(more than 25MPa) result in a higher content of hop polyphenols in extraction. Meanwhile, the conditions of hop polyphenols extracted from spent hop material derived from waste residues of supercritical CO2 extract were optimized. The mix-solvent of acetone-water (50%, W/W) was more propitious to obtain higher levels of polyphenols. The developed method is shown to be effective on enhancing comprehensive utilization of hop.

This paper studied the lactic acid bacteria cell immobilized on sodium alginate and its effect on accelerating ripening of cheese. Results from starter lactic acid bacteria cell immobilized with sodium alginate showed that WSN, TCASN and PTASN increase steadily as the ripening period advanced for all cheese treatments. The cheese contains 106CFU/g immobilized lactic acid bacteria with more pronounced amounts of water soluble nitrogen (WSN), trichloroacetic acid soluble nitrogen (TCASN) and phosphotungstic acid soluble nitrogen (PTASN) than the control batch. During early ripening, the acid value(ADV) of cheese varies little, while increases obviously after 45 days. This may be due to the slow release process of immobilized lactic acid bacteria during ripening. Results from organopleptic evaluation showed that cheese contained 105CFU/g immobilized lactic acid bacteria develops a strong flavor with firm texture after 60 days ripening, the ripening time shortened about 30 days.

Ammonium sulphate sedimentation combined with DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow chromatography for B-phycoeryth-rin (B-PE) purification from the red alga Porphyridium cruentum was established in this paper.The rusults showed that after precipitation with 65% saturated ammonium sulphate for two days and purification with chromatography, the purity of B- phycoerythrin reaches A545nm/A280nm=3.0. However after precipitation for two months, the high purity of B-phycoerythrin can be obtained by only one-step chromatography to reach 5.37 and can fulfill the purity standards as 4.5. This suggests that 65% ammonium sulphate has a high selectivity on B-PE. The effect of precipitation process intensely affects influenced the purity of B-phycoerythrin. The absorption spectrum and the fluorescence spectrum of producetion are both in accordance with characteristics of B-phycoerythrin. Native-PAGE showed only one single dark ribbon which means that B-phycoerythrin is homogeneous. SDS-PAGE appeared two ribbons, one is α- and β-subunit with molecular weight about 16~18kD, while the other one is γ-subunit with molecular weight about 31kD. At the same time, capillary electrophoresis and laser induced fluorescence method are both established for fast analysis on B-phycoerythrin purity. The result shows one single peak that means capillary electrophoresis method is highly effective for analysis on purity of B-phycoerythrin.

Objective: To study the protective effects and mechanism of EGCG (Epigallocatechin-3-gallate) on focal brain ischemia injury in rats. Methods: The ischemia model was created by right middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO). Rats were randomly divided into five groups. The EGCG groups were treated by EGCG 30min before MCAO. The sizes of cerebral infarction were measured after 6h of MCAO. The content of Ca2+ and excitatory amino acids in brain tissue were also determined. Results: The sizes of cerebral infarction of EGCG groups are less than that of the ischemia group. The contents of Ca2+ and excitatory amino acids of EGCG groups decrease more significantly than those of the ischemia group. Conclusion: EGCG may have the protective effects on focal brain ischemia injury in rats through reducing the content of Ca2+ and excitatory amino acids in brain tissue.

The mutagenic cell-L5178Y-3.7.2C cell-was treated with different concentrations of acrylamide (0.10, 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75mg/ml respectively). The results showed that with the increasing of the concentration of acrylamide, Relative Suspension Growth (RSG) decreases, and tk locus mutation frequency increases. Moreover, tk locus mutation frequency induced by 0.5, 0.75mg/ml of acrylamide is dosage-dependently higher than spontaneous mutation frequency. The results suggested that the acrylamide induces mutagenicity at higher concentration.

Objective : To investigate the effects of Compound I abstracted from ling ling pellet on human Hela cell so as to explore its mechanism. Methods: Growth inhibition was assayed with MTT. The morphological changes of Hela cells induced by compound I were observed with transmission electronic microscope and phase contrast microscope. Cell division cycle distri- bution and apoptosis affected by compound I was determined with flow cytometry. Results: The growth of human Hela cells is significantly inhibited which display strong in a dose and time-dependant manners against and induced apoptosis of Hela cells. Hela cell with estimated IC50 values of 10.9mg/L, concentration of 25, 12.5, 6.25mg/L inhabiting rate is 52.04%, 34.44%, 23.72% after 30h of treatment with compound I. Concentration of 100, 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125mg/L inhabiting rate is good correlation (r=0.9860, p<0.01). Expose of Hela cells to 25, 12.5, 6.25mg/L of compound I induced nuclear shrinkage, chromatin conden- sation and margination against nuclear envelope as seen in apoptotic cells. The follow cytometry profile revealed that treatment with different Concentrations compound I inducted apoptosis. Conclusion: Growth of human Hela cells was significantly inhibitory and apoptosis may play an important role in the anti-tumor effect of active compound I.
