Anisakid nematode larvae are found in fish and cephalopods and causes anisakiasis when humans consume raw or undercooked seafood. The only practical way to kill anisakid nematode larvae apart from heating has been freezing, but killing them using electrical pulsed power technology is expected to be ...

Salmonella is one of the most prevalent foodborne pathogens in poultry and its products. Its rapid detection based on volatile organic compounds (VOC) has been widely accepted. However, the variation in the VOCs of Salmonella-contaminated chicken during the early stage (48 h) remains uncertain....

Acrolein (ACR) is a harmful and active aldehyde produced in processed food that endangers foods safety. We undertook this work to explore the ACR-trapping ability of hesperidin (HES) and synephrine (SYN) from the diet. After comparing their ACR-trapping abilities, the reaction pathways of HES and...

Pickled frequently contains nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a mutagenic and carcinogenic substance that is dangerous for the general public's health. This study reports on the fabrication of a fluorescent biosensor using zein film and aptamer functionalized upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) for ...

Halogenated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (XPAHs) are likely to be generated by the reaction between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and halide ions and therefore pose a great threat to high salt food safety. The aim is to explore the profiles of PAHs/XPAHs in market sausages and their...

Microbial contamination is a crucial problem that is difficult to solve for the meat industry. Therefore, this study explored the antibacterial efficacy of phenyllactic acid (PLA) against Pseudomonas lundensis (PL) and Brochothrix thermosphacta (BT) solely and in combination (PL + BT). It also...

Nitrite pollution poses a serious threat to human health and the environment. In this study, a reliable and selective electrochemical (EC) sensor was developed for the quantitative determination of nitrite by combining flower-like three-dimensional (3D) MoS₂ microspheres with two-dimensional (2D) C...

It is urgently needed to develop high-performance method for tetracycline (TC) analysis to meet the growing concerns about food safety. Herein, a MOF of Ni²⁺-2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (Ni-HHTP) with peroxidase activity has been prepared and coated on a screen printing electrode,...

An ingenious and universal design of fluorescent/electrochemical dual-signal mode sensing platform was constructed for the sensitive, selective and accurate detection of tetracycline (TET). Apt-functionalized nano-magnetic beads (Fe₃O₄-Apt) as capture probe, Apt-complementary short-chain...

Sanchuan ham is appreciated in Yunnan Province, China, for its characteristic flavor and taste, while the microbial community structure and biogenic amines content remain unclear during fermentation processes. In this study, we explored the physicochemical property, biogenic amines concentration...
