Comparative assessment of nutritional composition and physicochemical properties of fresh, freeze- dried and rehydrated rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) mince

Abstract

Freeze drying is known as the excellent drying method for heat sensitive food products. In this research was aimed to determination of nutritional composition and physicochemical properties of fresh, freeze- dried and rehydrated rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) mince. Sample groups were established as fresh trout mince, freeze-dried trout mince and rehydrated trout mince after freeze-dried. Proximate composition, pH, water activity, colour measurement, rehydration ratio, fatty acid and amino acid profiles were determined in the samples. As a result; nutritional composition, total aminoacid amounts and total MUFA amounts were different in fresh, freeze dried and rehydrated samples. However; the difference between the total amount of PUFA in fresh and rehydrated samples were found insignificant statistically.

1 Introduction

It is recognized that seafood consumption has nutritional and healthiness advantages in mankind (Burger & Gochfeld, 2009Burger, J., & Gochfeld, M. (2009). Perceptions of the risks and benefits of fish consumption: individual choices to reduce risk and increase health benefits. Environmental Research, 109(3), 343-349. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.envres.2008.12.002. PMid:19193369.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.201...
). Fish and other seafood are regarded to be a good source of essential amino acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins and minerals (Rebolé et al., 2015Rebolé, A., Velasco, S., Rodríguez, M. L., Treviño, J., Alzueta, C., Tejedor, J. L., & Ortiz, L. T. (2015). Nutrient content in the muscle and skin of fillets from farmed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Food Chemistry, 174, 614-620. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2014.11.072. PMid:25529727.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.201...
). Omega 3 and omega 6 Polyunsaturated fatty acids cannot be synthesized in the human body, they must be received through nourishment (Mahan & Escott-Stump, 2005Mahan, L. K., & Escott-Stump, S. (2005). Krause, alimentos, nutrição e dietoterapia (11. ed.). São Paulo: Roca.; Castro et al., 2007Castro, F. A. F., Sant’Ana, H. M. P., Campos, F. M., Costa, N. M. B., Silva, M. T. C., Salaro, A. L., & Franceschini, S. C. C. (2007). Fatty acid composition of three freshwater fishes under different storage and cooking processes. Food Chemistry, 103(4), 1080-1090. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2006.10.002.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.200...
).

Seafood products has been provided by aquaculture production over the past two decades. Farmed fish (specially rainbow trout) has importance in providing n-3 fatty acid sources to consumers (Delgado et al., 2003Delgado, C. L., Wada, N., Rosegrant, M. W., Meijer, S., & Ahmed, M. (2003). Fish to 2020: supply and demand in changing global markets. Washington: WorldFish and International Food Policy Research Institute.; Blanchet et al., 2005Blanchet, C., Lucas, M., Julien, P., Morin, R., Gingras, S., & Dewailly, E. (2005). Fatty acid composition of wild and farmed atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Lipids, 40(5), 529-531. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11745-005-1414-0. PMid:16094864.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11745-005-141...
). Rainbow trout is a valuable source of many important nutrients. It has low fat and calorie values than some foods from the meat group such as red meat and chicken meat. About 3 ounce cooked rainbow trout comprises 22 g protein, 5 g fat, 30 mg sodium and 130 cal (Ladewig & Morat, 1995Ladewig, K.F., Morat, M. (1995). Rainbow trout (Southern Regional Aquaculture Center Publication, No. 224) Stoneville: SRAC.).

Freeze-drying can be defined as remove by sublimation of water from a frozen material. It provides an opportunity to obtain high quality food products. Because of the absence of liquid water and low temperatures are delayed some of the chemical and microbiological degradation (Rawson et al., 2011Rawson, A., Tiwari, B., Tuohy, M., O’Donnell, C., & Brunton, N. (2011). Effect of ultrasound and blanching pretreatments on polyacetylene and carotenoid content of hot air and freeze dried carrot discs. Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 18(5), 1172-1179. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ultsonch.2011.03.009. PMid:21486706.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ultsonch.201...
).

The advantages of a freeze-dried product are as follows: fast rehydration, retaining good flavour, preserving good color and appearance, prolonged shelf life, reduced transport and storage costs, using simple convenience, minor loss of nutrients (Zhang et al., 2014Zhang, H., Wang, Z.-Y., Yang, X., Zhao, H.-T., Zhang, Y.-C., Dong, A.-J., Jing, J., & Wang, J. (2014). Determination of free amino acids and 18 elements in freeze-dried strawberry and blueberry fruit using an Amino Acid Analyzer and ICP-MS with micro-wave digestion. Food Chemistry, 147, 189-194. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.2013.09.118. PMid:24206704.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodchem.201...
).

In spite of all these advantages a few seafood products have been dried in using this procedure. There are sliced cod, boiled shrimp, boiled crab and so on. The freeze drying technology are an advisable method for the preservation of seafood products and some problems solving in fishing sector. The freeze dried tuna fish, halibut, trout, whale, shrimp, calamar, octopus, clam, seaurchin, abalone and moss were examined in terms of freeze drying mechanism of marine products (Kobayashi, 1969Kobayashi, K. (1969). Studies on freeze-drying mechanism of marine products. Memoirs of the Faculty of Fisheries, Hokkaido University, 17, 1-70.).

No previous reports focused on the freeze-dried fish mince and nutritional composition, physicochemical and sensory properties. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the nutritional composition and physicochemical properties of fresh, freeze- dried and rehydrated rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) mince.

2 Materials and methods

2.1 Sample preparation

A total of N = 40 farmed rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) was used in this study. The average body length of the fish was 41.77 ± 0.26 cm with weight of 1200 ± 23.33 g. The fish were obtained from a trout farm in Sinop, Turkey. The fish were brought to the laboratory in iced styropor box. They were eviscerated, beheaded, filleted and washed with iced water. The fish were removed from the bones and skin. Then the fish were minced using a blender (Arcelik, K 1260, Turkey) approximately 3 min. (for each lot).The fish mince samples were vacuum packaged using polyamide/polyethylene film (30 × 30 cm, COEX, 90 µ, oxygen transmission rate of 160 cm3/m2/24 h atm at 23 °C and 0% relative humidity; carbon dioxide transmission rate of 32 cm3/m2/24 h atm at 23 °C and water vapor transmission rate of 8.5 g/m2/24 h atm at 38 °C) (Polinas, Turkey). The packaged samples were stored at -35 °C until freeze drying.

2.2 Freeze drying process

The trout mince samples were transferred to a pilot plant (Gebze Technical University, Chemical Engineering Department, Kocaeli) by the cold chain for freeze drying process within 7 hours. Firstly, the trout mince were thawed (30-45 min) and placed on the freeze dryer tray for efficient drying. Secondly, samples were frozen in a freeze dryer (VirTis Ultra 25 Super XL, USA) at -35 °C temperature for 2 hr. Then, samples were dried at +10 °C shelf temperature, 20 Pa pressure for about 24 hr. The freeze dried samples were put into zip lock bag immediately after freeze drying. The freeze-dried fish were cut into small pieces for all analyses (Figure 1).

2.6 Fatty acid analyses

The fatty acid profiles were carried out according to the method ISO 12966-2:2011 (Demirtas et al., 2013Demirtas, I., Pelvan, E., Ozdemir, I. S., Alasalvar, C., & Ertas, E. (2013).

).

2.7 Statistical analysis

Experimental data were analysed using of Minitab 15 program (Minitab Inc., State College, PA, USA). It was used one way analysis of variance (ANOVA). For data analysis, mean, standard error were used (P < 0.05). (Ozdamar, 2015Ozdamar, K. (2015). Paket programlar ile istatistiksel veri analizi (Vol. 1, 10. Baskı). Turquia: Nisan Kitabevi.).

3 Results and discussion

3.1 Proximate composition

The proximate composition values of the fresh trout mince, freeze-dried trout mince and rehydrated trout mince were shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2
Proximate compositionof fresh trout mince, freeze-dried trout mince and rehydrated trout mince. The same letters of a, b, c point out no significant difference, and the different letters between them mean there is a significant difference, p <0.05.

The moisture value of the freeze-dried trout was reduced to 2.11 ± 0.01%, and the fat value increased to 23.53 ± 0.02%. Protein and ash values ​​were increased by 66.41 ± 0.02% and 5.20 ± 0.05%, respectively. Similar consequence has been reported for freeze dried tuna fish (Thunnus tongol) and shark (Rhizoprionodon acutus). (Rahman et al., 2002Rahman, M. S., Al-Amri, O. S., & Al-Bulushi, I. M. (2002). Pores and physico-chemical characteristics of dried tuna produced by different methods of drying. Journal of Food Engineering, 53(4), 301-313. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0260-8774(01)00169-8.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0260-8774(01)...
; Sablani & Kasapis, 2006Sablani, S. S., & Kasapis, S. (2006). Glass transition and water activity of freeze-dried shark. Drying Technology, 24(8), 1003-1009. http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/07373930600776175.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/07373930600776...
). It can be said that the increase in protein, fat and ash values ​​is a proportional increase due to decrease in moisture value.

If there are no contrary effects on the entirety of the tissue structure, it should absorb water to the same moisture content as the original sample before drying (Senadeera et al., 2000Senadeera, W., Bhandari, B., Young, G., & Wijesinghe, B. (2000). Physical property changes of fruits and vegetables during hot air drying. In A. S. Mujumdar (Ed.), Drying technology in agriculture and food sciences (pp. 149-166). Enfield: Science Publishers.; Marques et al., 2009Marques, L. G., Prado, M. M., & Freire, J. T. (2009). Rehydration characteristics of freeze-dried tropical fruits. Food Science and Technology, 42, 1232-1237. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.lwt.2009.02.012.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.lwt.2009.02....
). In our work, it was not possible to recover all of the water after rehydration. This can be said to be due to the loss of water retention capacity of the trout in relation to the texture deterioration of freezing- thawing and freeze-drying process.

3.2 Pysicochemical analyses

pH, water activity values, color measurement of the trout mince samples and rehydration ratio freeze-dried trout mince were shown in Figure 3, Figure 4 and Figure 5.

According to the pH values, freeze-dried trout were not be affected from freeze-drying process (p> 0.05). However, pH value of rehydrated trout mince were decreased (p<0.05). A very low water activity value was obtained after freeze drying and this value was slightly above the fresh fish value after rehydration. The difference between the water activity values ​​of fresh and rehydrated samples was not significant (p>0.05). No microbial activity has been reported in dried aquatic products with water activity below 0.60. The decrease in water activity value also limits or prevents enzymatic changes (Varlık et al., 2004Varlık, C., Erkan, N., Ozden, O., Mol, S., & Baygar, T. (2004). Seafood processing technology (No. 4465). Istanbul: Istanbul University.).

We did not encounter the literature related to freeze dried and rehydrated trout of L, a* and b* values. However, studies of color values ​​of freeze-dried cod and tuna fish were found. Eikevik et al. (2005)Eikevik, T. M., Strommen, I., Alves-Filho, O., & Hemmingsen, A. K. T. (2005). Effect of operating conditions on atmospheric freeze dried cod fish. In Proceedings of 3rd Inter-American Drying Conference (IADV2005). Montreal: CRC Press., freeze dried the cod fish at different temperatures. They were reported that when the drying temperature decreased the b* value also decreased but the L value increased. In our work, the L value was increased by freeze drying. However, the value of b* increased after rehydration. Rahman et al. (2002)Rahman, M. S., Al-Amri, O. S., & Al-Bulushi, I. M. (2002). Pores and physico-chemical characteristics of dried tuna produced by different methods of drying. Journal of Food Engineering, 53(4), 301-313. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0260-8774(01)00169-8.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0260-8774(01)...
, reported that they found L value of 57.20, a* value of 6.48 and b* value of 10.88 for tuna fish freeze-dried and stored for 6 months at 20 °C. The browning of dried products can be understood by the L value. At high L values, the brown color of the product is reduced. It has been reported that the highest L value is seen in freeze-dried products when compared with freeze-dried samples with air-dried and vacuum-dried samples (Rahman et al., 2002Rahman, M. S., Al-Amri, O. S., & Al-Bulushi, I. M. (2002). Pores and physico-chemical characteristics of dried tuna produced by different methods of drying. Journal of Food Engineering, 53(4), 301-313. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0260-8774(01)00169-8.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0260-8774(01)...
).

In present study, rehydration ratios of freeze-dried trout mince were determined in distilled water at 30 °C and 100 °C. Rehydration ratios of the samples were 2.65 ± 0.07 at the 15th minute and 2.72 ± 0.18 at the 210th minute at 30 °C. These values were 2.28 ± 0.01 at the 2nd minute of the rehydration and 2.47 ± 0.01 at the 20th minute at 100 °C (Figure 6).

Rehydration ratio of freeze-dried foods is in general 4–6 times higher than air-dried foods (Meda & Ratti, 2005Meda, L., & Ratti, C. (2005). Rehydration of freeze-dried strawberries at varying temperatures. Journal of Food Process Engineering, 28(3), 233-246. http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1745-4530.2005.00404.x.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1745-4530.20...
). Generally, dried fish samples is soaked in water before cooking or consumption, thus rehydration is one of the critical quality criteria for dried fish products (Lewicki, 1998Lewicki, P. P. (1998). Effect of pre-drying treatment, drying, and rehydration on plant tissue properties. International Journal of Food Properties, 1(1), 1-22. http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10942919809524561.

http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ojms.2012.2301...
reported that rehydration ratio as 2.15 in the 30th minute and 2.21 in the 60th minute of freeze-dried crab. It can be said that the value ​​of the rehydration ratio are close to our study. In our study, rehydration ratio that determined in the distilled water at 30 °C was higher than rehydration ratio measured at 100 °C. It is thought that the reason for this is denaturation of proteins during the rehydration process at 100 °C is associated with the detrimental effect of the textural properties and thus the reduction of rehydration capacity.

3.3 Aminoacid composition

The aminoacid composition values of the fresh trout mince, freeze-dried trout mince and rehydrated trout mince were shown in Table 1.

Table 1
Aminoacid compositionof fresh trout mince, freeze-dried trout mince and rehydrated trout mince (g/100 g).

In our study of amino acid values ​​in fresh, freeze-dried and rehydrated fish, it was determined that the fresh trout had the highest content of lysine (2.81 g/100 g) of essential amino acids. After freeze drying, leucine (6.53 g/100 g) was detected at the highest level compared to other amino acids. Although the amount of leucine after rehydration showed decrease compared to the freeze-dried product (3.12 g/100 g), it was determined that all amino acids contained the highest leucine content.

It is observed that the amounts of amino acids increase after freeze drying in our work. There are very few studies in the literature evaluating the amino acid content of freeze dried aquaculture products. In a study examining the amino acid compositions of three different species of jellyfish, oven dried and freeze dried jellyfish were compared. According to this; it can be said that jellyfish treated with freeze drying contains amino acids at higher levels than those dried in the oven (Kogovsek et al., 2014Kogovsek, T., Tinta, T., Klun, K., & Malej, A. (2014). Jellyfish biochemical composition: importance of standardised sample processing. Marine Ecology Progress Series, 510, 275-288. http://dx.doi.org/10.3354/meps10959.
http://dx.doi.org/10.3354/meps10959...
). In another study; different drying methods were applied to sea cucumber and their amino acid contents were examined. Compared with the amino acid contents of fresh and freeze dried sea cucumber, certain amino acids are found to increase, while others decrease. However, the total amount of amino acid was determined as 74.80 in fresh sea cucumber and reported as 73.24 in freeze dried sea cucumber (Duan et al., 2010Duan, X., Zhang, M., Mujumdar, A. S., & Wang, S. (2010). Microwave freeze drying of sea cucumber (Stichopus japonicus). Journal of Food Engineering, 96(4), 491-497. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jfoodeng.2009.08.031.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jfoodeng.200...
).

In our study, the increase in the amino acid values ​​of the freeze-dried trout and the decrease in the amino acid values of rehydrated samples is thought to be related to proportional water loss. It is also believed that the reduction in the amount of amino acid relative to freeze-dried samples in rehydrated samples is related to denaturation of the proteins as a result of rehydration by immersion of product the distilled water at 100 °C, or to the passage and loss of water-soluble proteins. As a matter of fact, the structure of fish proteins can be easily changed by changing the physical environment. It has been reported that the solubility properties of myofibrillar proteins change after freeze drying (Spinelli et al., 1972Spinelli, J., Koury, B., & Miller, R. (1972). Approaches to the utilization of fish for the preparation of protein isolates enzymic modifications of myofibrillar fish proteins.

3.4 Fatty acid composition

The fatty acid composition values of fresh trout mince, freeze-dried trout mince and rehydrated trout mince were shown in Table 2.

Table 2
Fatty acid compositionof fresh trout mince, freeze-dried trout mince and rehydrated trout mince (%).

The highest amount of SFA was measured in all groups as palmitic acid (C16:0), and in fresh, freeze-dried and rehydrated trout, 14.79 ± 0.08%, 14.32 ± 0.00 and 14.27 ± 0.00, respectively. The highest MUFA was oleic acid (C18: 1 n-9), 30.02 ± 0.02%, 29.51 ± 0.01 and 30.09 ± 0.00% in fresh, freeze-dried and rehydrated trout samples, respectively. The lowest MUFA was found to be 0.03 ± 0.00% myristicoleic acid (C14: 1) in all three groups. The highest PUFA was determined as linoleic acid (C18:2 n-6) in all three groups. Also, the lowest PUFA was measured in all groups as eicosatrienoic acid (C20:3 n-3).

They were reported that total saturated fatty acids, total monounsaturated fatty acids and total polyunsaturated fatty acids amounts as 27.65%, 35.56% and 23.09%, respectively. It can be said that these results are close to the results of our study. Murphy et al. (2003)Murphy, K. J., Mann, N. J., & Sinclair, A. J. (2003). Fatty acid and sterol composition of frozen and freeze-dried new zealand green lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus) from three sites in New Zealand. Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 12(1), 50-60. PMid:12737011. investigated the fatty acid and sterol composition of frozen and freeze-dried mussel (Perna canaliculus) from three sites in New Zealand. According to the result of study they were reported that some of the amounts of fatty acids increased whereas some decreased. It can be said that these results are similar to our study. In addition, the same investigators have reported that freeze-drying may affect the lipid composition of the mussels. In particular, they have reported that freeze-drying may cause to disappear some volatile fatty acids and may cause isomerization some of other fatty acid. It is thought that such an event might have come to fruition in our work. In another study, Zotte et al. (2014)Zotte, A. D., Ottavian, M., Concollato, A., Serva, L., Martelli, R., & Parisi, G. (2014). Authentication of raw and cooked freeze-dried rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) by means of near ınfrared spectroscopy and data fusion.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodres.2013...
reported the ratio of total saturated fatty acids in freeze-dried trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) as 21.12% and indicated the highest saturated fatty acid as palmitic acid with 13.28%. These results are in parallel with the freeze-dried fatty acid results of our study. In the same study, the amount of total monounsaturated fatty acids in fresh trout was expressed as 20.62%, which was determined as 36.24% in our study. Total polyunsaturated fatty acids of fresh trout were reported by Zotte et al. (2014)Zotte, A. D., Ottavian, M., Concollato, A., Serva, L., Martelli, R., & Parisi, G. (2014). Authentication of raw and cooked freeze-dried rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) by means of near ınfrared spectroscopy and data fusion. Food Research International, 60, 180-188. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodres.2013.10.033.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.foodres.2013...
as 57.92%, while in our study this value was found to be 35.40%. It can be said that the difference is due to some environmental factors affecting the biochemical composition of the fish.

4 Conclusion

In this study, we determined the nutritional composition and physicochemical properties of fresh, freeze- dried and rehydrated rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) mince. According to the nutritional composition results, it can be said that protein, fat, moisture and ash (except rehydrated), amino acid and fatty acids values are affected by freeze drying and rehydration processes. Also, it is thought that the samples are affected by the processes such as frozen transfer and thawing before freeze drying.

The pH value of fresh trout mince was not affected by freeze drying process but decreased following rehydration. The water activity value of the freeze dried trout mince was determined to the amount that can be prevent the microbial and enzymatic activities. There were no changes in L and b* value among the freeze dried and rehydrated trout mince samples, while a* value presented a more reddish tone in the freeze dried trout mince.

In view of the nutritional value of the product, it can also be used as a protein additive to enrich various food products as well as direct consumption.
