Introduction

등온열량측정법은 신선한 채소, 발효 중인 제품 또는 미생물 활동에 의한 부패가 일어나는 식품과 같이 살아있는 물질들의 공정의 결과를 내는데에 가장 효과적인 방법입니다. 이 Application Note에는 등온 열량 측정법이 식품의 유통기한에 대한 연구를 위해 사용된 과학 문헌들이 포함되어있습니다. 이것은 대략적은 목록이지만 열량 측정법으로 만들어진 식품 생물학에 대한 훨씬 더 많은 연구가 있습니다.

 

“등온열량측정법” 이라는 단어는 일정한 온도에서의 화력과 열을 측정하는데 사용됩니다. 이 측정법의 다른 용어는 “미세열량측정법”(µW수준에서 측정가능하지만 반드시 등온 조건은 아님), 열전도 열량측정법(어떻게 이 장비가 작동되는지 알려줌) 그리고 항온 환경 열량측정법(다소 혼동되는 단어)이 있습니다.

 

등온열량측정법는 대부분의 경우 온도 변화로 인한 열 발생을 모니터링하는 것보다 일반적인 열시차 열량 분석법 (DSC)과 뚜렷이 다릅니다. 등온열량게는 이 문헌 검토에서 논의 된 생물학적 과정과 같이 일정한 온도에서 일어나는 과정을 연구하는데 사용됩니다. 그들은 일반적으로 더 나은 온동 안정성을 가지며 훨씬 더 큰 샘플에 적합하며 등온 모드에서 실행되는 DSC기기보다 훨씬 더 높은 감도를 갖습니다. 등온열량측정법 및 DSC는 식품실험실에서 상호보완적인 기술입니다. 이것은 주로 비생물학적 식품 열량 측정법의 예시로 사용되는 논물들입니다:

This paper shows that isothermal calorimetry can be used to  divide  the  osmotic  dehydration  of  fruits  or  vegetable  into  different  parts;  however,  the  authors  do  not  interpret  the  observed  thermal  power  regimes  in  terms  of  biologically  produced heat, but only discuss it in physical terms.

This  is  the  first  study  of  the  heat  production  from  a  fermentation process, but it was not made in a calorimeter;  instead  the  heat  balance  of  a  whole  fermentation  vat  was  assessed.

This study shows that, although a pulsed electric field (PEF)  treatment  inactivates  the  majority  of  the  bacteria,  the  remaining bacterial population showed higher resistance to  further PEF treatment

Shelf life, predictive microbiology and spoilage  

  • Sacks, L.E. and E. Menefee, Thermal detection of spoilage  in canned foods. J Food Sci, 37 (1972) 928-931.

The first mentioning of the possibility of detecting microbial  activity  (and  possibly  also  other  types  of  processes)  with  calorimetry in sealed packages without opening them. In this  case  the  temperature  increase  of  the  canned  food  was  monitored.

The  authors  show  that  it  is  possible  to  detect  microbial  growth  in  soy  broth  after  only  a  few  hours.  Higher  inoculation levels gave shorter detection time.

  • Iversen, E., E. Wilhelmsen, and R.S. Criddle, Calorimetric  examination  of  cut  fresh  pineapple  metabolism.  J.  Food Sci., 54 (1989) 1246-1249.

Isothermal  calorimetry  was  found  to  be  a  good  method  to  detect  microbial  activity  in  cut  pineapple.  The  effect  of  a  preservative at different concentrations was also tested and  it  was  easy  to  see  which  preservative  levels  that  caused  an  inhibition of the microbial activity.

Calorimetric  measurements  were  made  on  three  food  systems  (eggs,  milk  and  a  salad)  at  different  (constant)  temperatures.  The  time  of  an  increase  in  the  measured  thermal  power  –  indicating  the  onset  of  degradation  processes  –  correlated  well  with  other  measures  used  to determine shelf-life.

In  these  two  papers  the  microbiological  spoilage  of  carrot  juice  is  investigated.  Carrot  juice  is  an  interesting  spoilage  model  as  it  has  a  short  shelf  life  because  of  its  non-acidic  nature and its high content of soil microorganisms.

In the third part of the English translation of this interesting  book  Prat  describes  several  measurements  on  germinating  seeds,  for  example  the  influence  of  temperature  of  the  germination  of  wheat  grain  (several  references  to  Prat’s  original work are given).

 

  • Dymek,  K.,  et  al.,  Effekt  of  pulsed  electric  field  on  the  germination of barley seeds. LWT - Food Sci. Technol., 47 (2012) 161-166.
