This paper reported that ultrasonic treatment could be used to prepare soluble aggregates of commercial soy protein isolates (SPI). SE-HPLC and SDS-PAGE analyses showed that ultrasonic treatment could make un-soluble components of commercial SPI transform into“ soluble aggregates”, which originally contained most un-soluble basic subunits of glycinin and a majority ofβ-conglycinin. Compared with the SPI dispersions untreated with ultrasonic, the treated dispersions show higher thermal stability and gelling properties. These results can provide some guide for the application of commercial SPI in food industry.

 Eighteen samples were divided into two groups (low drip loss and high drip loss) with cluster analysis. Water holding capacity and L* value were significantly different among groups. However, there was no significant difference in a* value and tenderness. Protein denaturation of the meat sample was analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results showed that the pronounced denaturation of myosin and sarcoplasmic protein in meat from the high drip loss group is found greater than the low drip loss group. DSC analysis is more sensitive to protein denaturation than the method of determining protein solubility. Water holding capacity is significantly negative correlated with denaturation of myosin and sarcoplasmic protein in pork (r=-0.56, p<0.05).

The rate of starch digestibility and the enzymatic resistivity was evaluated in some cross-linked tapioca starch in terms of in vitro model and the effect of cross-linking on the reactivity of tapioca starch by enzyme were discussed. The results showed that the starch digestion rate by salivary α-amylase is decreased as the degree of cross-linking increased. High cross- linking degree of starch granules decreased the digestion rate. However, low cross-linked reaction increased the rate of starch granule but had little effect on its pastes. Moreover, the influence of cross-linked with POCl3 on the enzymatic resistivity was revealed by using the Megazyme total starch assay kit. The decrease in enzyme hydrolysis after cross-linking was higher as cross-linking degree increased and the amount of total resistant starch increased. These decreases were higher in high cross-linked tapioca starch where granular structure became non-crystallized. But for the retrograded cross-linked tapioca starch, the percentage of enzyme hydrolysis increased with the increase of cross-linking degree until 1.71×10-2 and then decreased. It is concluded that the sensitivity of starch granules to enzyme and their reactivity can be regulated by controlling the degree of cross-linking(DC), which is likely to affect the nutritional characteristics of tapioca starch.

The dried powders of marigold flower were extracted by hexane for a few times until the extract was colorless. After filtration, the extract was collected and concentrated by a rotary evaporator until its total carotenoid amount (TCA) was 5% (W/ V). The concentrate was saponified by the addition of an equal volume of 10% (W/V) KOH-EtOH. This reaction usually took more than 12 hours at room temperature with stirring and N2 filling. The product of saponification was isolated by a liquid-liquid phase separation with the upper phase of di-ether and the lower phase of 2% (W/V) NaCl solution. The ether phase was washedby the NaCl solution for many time until its pH was 7. The ether phase was then evaporated to remove di-ether and water. The TCA and carotenoid composition (CC) assessments of final concentrate were performed. A mass spectroscopy of lutein fraction was undertaken to support its identification by HPLC.

Nitrite content variation and nitrite formation mechanics of the vegetables, respectively stored in different room- temperatures, low temperatures and natural fermentations, are studied in this paper. And the test materials are varieties of Chinese cabbage, cabbage and white radish. The results show that the nitrite peaks appear in the initial stage (3days storge) in the three kinds of storage methods. The main reasons for nitrite peak formation of the varied treatments are different. When vegetables were plucked, their nitrate reductase activity increased. So the main reason for nitrite peak formation of vegetables stored in room-temperature and low temperature, is the reduction of nitrate into nitrite by vegetable’s nitrate reductase, where, nitite peak formation was caused by microorganisms in the course of fermentation. This peak value is much higher than that of the two other treatments in excesse of the ADI value established by FAO/WHO. But the nitrite content is in the safety edible range in the anaphasic stage (in the latter stage of storage 8 dags latter). The nitrite content value of the vegetables stored in room- temperature and low temperature is lower ADI value, so the vegetables are edibly safe.

In narrow sense,“ food sanitary”means that food is clean , not contaminated by pathogenic bacteria, and cannot lead to illness“.Food safety”means that food and the products related to food do not contain actual or potential harm, and that methods and measures have already been taken to maintain food safe. In contrast to“ food sanitary”,“ food safety” stresses more on reality, complement, exactness of food label, emphasizes more on the regulation of authentication and trade mark, pays more attention to methods of food eating, and concerns the differences among eaters more. Also, they differ rather obviously in public administration.“ Food quality”, a definition of“ degree”, means the degree of food quality, including both high-class food and low-grade food. Bu“tfood safety”is an“ absolute” definition, meaning that there is no acute or chronic danger in the food.“ Food sanitary” is also an“ absolute” definition. The opinion held in this paper is that we should discriminate the three definitions on the occasions of drafting the Food Safety Law and of amending the Standardizing Law and the Food Sanitary Law.

 The aims of this paper are to provide a selective review of the interactions between food and gastrointestinal mucosa, TLRs, cytokine system, and immunosystem. More and more research data showed that a few food proteins, peptides, fats, oligosaccharides and other biochemicals can induce or suppress one kind of both pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, which are in turn to control innate, adaptive immnnosystems, neurophysiology and metabolic networks. More and more strong evidence showed that the relationship and balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines are seem to be very similar to those of the Chinese“ Yin”“-negative, or-” and“ Yang”-“ positive, or +”. Chinese people have classified food and herb medicines according to their experience of their positive or negative roles, and also believed that one can modulate his health by controlling the balance of Yin (-) and Yang (+) of food and herb medicine’s intake. So a theoretical model is induced in this paper to explicate the interactions of food and cytokine system and in turn the immunosystem and then the body health.
