Carbon dioxide sensors for intelligent food packaging applications
Puligundla, P.,Jung, J.,Ko, S. Butterworths ; Taylor Francis ; Elsevier Science 2012 Food control Vol.25 No.1
Recently, the demand for safe and high quality foods, as well as changes in consumer preferences have led to the development of innovative and novel approaches in food packaging technology. One such development is the smart or intelligent food packaging technology. Intelligent packaging has enabled to monitor and communicate information about food quality. This technology also helps to trace a product's history through the critical points in the food supply chain. In general, occurrence of elevated CO<SUB>2</SUB> gas level is the prime indicator of food spoilage in packed foods and also its maintenance at optimal levels is essential to avoid spoilage in foods packed under modified-atmosphere packaging (MAP) conditions. Hence, a CO<SUB>2</SUB> sensor incorporated into food package can efficiently monitor product quality until it reaches the consumer. Although much progress has been made so far in the development of sensors monitoring CO<SUB>2,</SUB> most of them are not versatile for food packaging applications and suffers from limitations such as high equipment cost, bulkiness, and energy input requirement, including safety concerns. Therefore, the development of efficient CO<SUB>2</SUB> sensors that can intelligently monitors the gas concentration changes inside a food package and specific to food packaging applications is essential. In the present review, progress on the development of different types of CO<SUB>2</SUB> sensors such as optical sensors, polymer opal films, polymer hydrogels, etc., which can be readily applicable to food packaging applications, is discussed.

Low-pressure air plasma (LPAP) has not been widely used for food products surface bio-decontamination. In the present study, LPAP was used as inactivating agent against surface microbial contaminants of sun-dried laver sheets. Microbial inactivation kinetics and physicochemical characteristics of LPAP-exposed laver sheets were determined. Also, the sensory properties of kimbab (rice rolled in laver), which was roll wrapped using plasma-treated dried laver, were evaluated. LPAP was generated at the vacuum pressure of 133.3 Pa or 1Torr, and a power density of 54.1 mW/cm<SUP>3</SUP>. Upon LPAP-exposure, over 1-log reduction in viable cell count of aerobic bacteria was observed over a 20 min period. The microbial inactivation pattern fitted well to Singh-Heldman model or pseudo-first-order kinetics. Compared to plasma-unexposed laver, there were no changes in color characteristics, total phenolic content, and 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity of plasma-exposed laver. Furthermore, the use of LPAP-exposed laver sheets exerted minimal to no impact on sensory characteristics of kimbab.

Lignocellulosic biomass conversion to biofuels such as ethanol and other value-added bio-products including activated carbons has attracted much attention. The development of an efficient, cost-effective, and eco-friendly pretreatment process is a major challenge in lignocellulosic biomass to biofuel conversion. Although several modern pretreatment technologies have been introduced, few promising technologies have been reported. Microwave irradiation or microwave-assisted methods (physical and chemical) for pretreatment (disintegration) of biomass have been gaining popularity over the last few years owing to their high heating efficiency, lower energy requirements, and easy operation. Acid and alkali pretreatments assisted by microwave heating meanwhile have been widely used for different types of lignocellulosic biomass conversion. Additional advantages of microwave-based pretreatments include faster treatment time, selective processing, instantaneous control, and acceleration of the reaction rate. The present review provides insights into the current research and advantages of using microwave-assisted pretreatment technologies for the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars in the process of cellulosic ethanol production.
Buckwheat noodles: processing and quality enhancement
Pradeep Puligundla,임석원 한국식품과학회 2021 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.30 No.12
In recent years, buckwheat noodles have gainedincreased importance because of their functional properties. These qualities are attributed to the abundance ofbioactive compounds (e.g., rutin, quercetin) and nutraceuticals(e.g., B vitamins, unsaturated fatty acids). Buckwheatnoodle consumption has been shown to be associated withimproved metabolic health. Buckwheat flour exhibitsproperties similar to those of common cereal flours in foodprocessing, but devoid of gluten. However, the maintenanceof good textural properties and high sensoryacceptability are key challenges in the development ofgluten-free products, and these limitations preventedwidespread application of buckwheat in the food industry. Nevertheless, continuous technological developmentsrelated to raw materials processing, noodle processing, andnoodle quality enhancement have contributed to thegrowing popularity and acceptability of buckwheat noodlesin recent times. These improvements could render buckwheatnoodles a healthy gluten-free alternative to wheatnoodles.
Review : Chemical Leachates from Food Contact Packaging Materials and Health Risks
( Pradeep Puligundla ),( Sang Hoon Ko ) 한국산업식품공학회 2013 산업 식품공학 Vol.17 No.2
Food contact packaging material should be stable and non-reactive with the food that it is in contact with, and must promote the safety of food. However, for a number of years, there has been evidence that indefinitely small amounts of chemicals could migrate or leach from food packaging materials into the foods they hold. The chemistry and toxicity of such leachates are well-known and documented; and there is a growing concern over the matter among the general public. In addition, food regulatory agencies are imposing more stringent regulations on the maximum allowable amounts of known leachates into foods in recent years. The majority of toxicity studies have revealed that trace amounts of leachates pose no immediate health problems in humans. However, studies on the effects of long-term exposure or synergistic/cumulative toxicity are still lacking. The present review provides an overview of the chemical nature and toxicity of certain leachates from various types of food contact packaging materials that are in wide use.

Pradeep Puligundla,목철균 한국식품과학회 2021 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.30 No.3
Brewers’ spent grain (BSG) is the most abundantby-product of beer-brewing. BSG is rich in nutrients suchas protein, fiber, minerals, and vitamins, and therefore it isconventionally used as low-cost animal feed. On the otherhand, alternative utilization of BSG has gained increasedattention during recent years due to technological progressin its processing and the emergence of the concept of circulareconomy. The valorization of BSG through biotechnologicalapproaches is environmentally friendly andsustainable. This review was focused on recent advancementsin the conversion of BSG into value-added products,including bioenergy (ethanol, butanol, hydrogen, biodiesel,and biogas), organic acids, enzymes, xylitol, oligosaccharides,and single cell protein, via biotechnologicalapproaches. In addition, the potential applications of BSGas immobilization matrices in bioprocesses have beenreviewed.

The decontamination of spoilage-related microbes in low-alcohol red wine was performed using a serial multiple electrode pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment system. The system consisted of seven electrodes connected in series, and it has been designed to produce square-wave high-voltage pulses of 1 ls duration at various electric field strengths and frequencies for decontamination. The initial counts of aerobic bacteria, yeast and lactic acid bacteria (spoilage-associated microbes) in the wine were 5.56, 5.61 and 5.22 log CFU/mL, respectively. The pattern of decontamination of the spoilage microorganisms followed first-order kinetics and the decontamination effect increased as the field strength and frequency increases. DHz and DPEF values were inversely related to the electric field strength of the PEF treatment. The yeast exhibited relatively low DPEF-value than the aerobic and lactic acid bacteria. The lowest ZPEF-value was observed for the lactic acid bacteria (24.6 kV/cm) among the spoilage microbes.

The use of corona discharge plasma jet (CDPJ) for the improvement of the sanitary quality of semi-dried squid was investigated. Microbial contaminants, namely aerobic, coliforms, and molds and yeasts, were detected in the samples. The CDPJ generated using 20 kV DC voltage at 58 kHz frequency was used for the decontamination treatment (1–10 min). The bacterial contaminants and molds and yeasts were inactivated in the range of 1.5–2.1 and at 1.9 log CFU/g, respectively. The inactivation pattern was well fitted to the first-order kinetics model. The CDPJ treatment for 10 min did not exert significant changes (p[0.05) in VBN and the trimethylamine content of semi-dried squid as compared to untreated controls. On the contrary, significant changes (p\0.05) in moisture content, water activity, pH, color, and TBARS levels were observed upon plasma exposure. However, the CDPJ-treated samples displayed slightly better sensory properties than the controls in terms of appearance, visual color, and flavor.
