Eugenol nanocapsules embedded with gelatin-chitosan for chilled pork preservation
2020

Chilled pork is widely consumed in China. However, various contaminants during storage directly lead to a decline in the quality of chilled pork products. An extract of natural plant sources, eugenol (Eug) exerts good antibacterial and antioxidant effects. Nanometerization was used in this study to improve the insoluble and volatile characteristics of Eug. Eug nanocapsules embedded with gelatin/chitosan (Eug-Gel-CS NPs) were used to preserve chilled pork. Results indicated that Eug-Gel-CS NPs could effectively inhibit increases in the pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) of chilled pork than that of the Eug group (p < 0.05). The L* and a* values of the Eug-Gel-CS NPs group were significantly higher than those of the Eug and gelatin-chitosan (CS-Gel) groups (p < 0.05). The total number of colonies (TBC) showed that the storage period of the Eug-Gel-CS NPs group could be extended to 15 d, which was significantly different from that of the CK group (8 d) (p < 0.05). The Eug-Gel-CS NPs also effectively delayed the decline in the water- holding capacity (WHC), springiness, and cohesiveness of the chilled pork. Therefore, Eug-Gel-CS NPs exert good antiseptic, antibacterial, and antioxidative effects on preserved chilled pork.
