为了比较4种变性淀粉与商业抗冻剂(4%蔗糖+4%山梨醇)对鲢鱼糜在冻结过程(-20、-80℃下静止冻结)中的影响,对冻结速率、冻结相变热特性参数、凝胶强度和持水性能进行了测定。结果表明,鱼糜在-80℃下的冻结速率均显著高于-20℃下;同一冻结温度下,几种添加物均会降低鱼糜的冻结速率及冻结相变焓,而提高冷冻鱼糜凝胶的持水性能,且变性淀粉组的持水性都显著高于商业抗冻剂组(P〈0.05)。在-80℃冻结时,添加交联酯化淀粉与醋酸酯化淀粉的鱼糜的冻结速率相近,且均显著小于其他组(P〈0.05)。在2种冻结温度下,醋酸酯化淀粉组的凝胶强度均与商业抗冻剂组无显著性差异,而显著高于其他实验组(P〈0.05)。研究表明,4%蔗糖+4%醋酸酯化淀粉可有效地防止鱼糜在冻结过程中的品质变化,可代替商业抗冻剂应用在冷冻鱼糜中。
For silver carp( Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) surimi with four kinds of modified starch or the conventional cryoprotectant( 4% sucrose + 4% sorbitol),the freezing rate,thermal properties parameters during freezing phase transition and gel characteristics at-20 and-80 ℃ were measured in order to compare the cryoprotective effects of additives during freezing. The results indicated that the freezing rate of surimi at-80 ℃ was significantly higher than that at-20 ℃. The additives could significantly reduce the freezing rate and the freezing phase transition enthalpy of surimi,and improve water-holding capacity of frozen surimi gel. Higher water-holding capacity was obtained in surimi with modified starch,compared with that of surimi with the conventional cryoprotectant( P〈0. 05). The freezing rate of surimi with 4% sucrose( Z) +4% cross-linking esterification starch( CES) was similar to that of surimi with 4% sucrose( Z) +4%acetic acid esterified starch( AAES),and both were lower than that of the other groups at-80 ℃( P〈0. 05). There was no visible difference in gel strength betweeen surimi with 4% Z + 4% AAES and surimi with the conventional cryoprotectant. Meanwhile,their gel strength was higher than that of the other groups at-20 and-80 ℃,respectively( P〈0. 05). Therefore,4% Z + 4% AAES appeared to be a promising alternative cryoprotectant of the conventional cryoprotectant in frozen surimi industry,due to its notable effectiveness on the prevention of surimi quality changes during freezing.
