Der Bereich Ernährung wird in den kommenden Jahrzehnten vor zahlreichen Herausforderungen stehen, die sich aus den veränderten Lebensgewohnheiten und globalen Konsummustern bei gleichzeitig hohem Ressourcenverbrauch ergeben. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird in diesem Papier ein neu entwickeltes Instrument zur Verringerung der Auswirkungen auf die Ernährung vorgestellt, der sogenannte Ernährungsfußabdruck. Das Instrument basiert auf der Umsetzung des Konzepts einer nachhaltigen Ernährung in Entscheidungsprozessen und der Unterstützung einer ressourcenschonenden Gesellschaft. Das Konzept integriert jeweils vier Indikatoren aus den beiden ernährungsrelevanten Bereichen Gesundheit und Umwelt und verdichtet sie zu einem leicht kommunizierbaren Ergebnis, das sich in seinen Ergebnissen auf eine Wirkungsebene beschränkt. Anhand von acht Mittagsmahlzeiten werden die Methodik und ihre Berechnungsverfahren detailliert vorgestellt. Die Ergebnisse unterstreichen die allgemeine wissenschaftliche Sichtweise auf Lebensmittel; Mahlzeiten auf der Basis von tierischem Eiweiß sind im Hinblick auf ihre Gesundheits- und Umweltauswirkungen relevanter. Das Konzept scheint für Verbraucher nützlich zu sein, um ihre eigene Wahl zu bewerten, und für Unternehmen, um ihre internen Daten, ihre Benchmarking-Prozesse oder ihre externe Kommunikationsleistung zu erweitern. Methodische Unzulänglichkeiten und die Interpretation der Ergebnisse werden erörtert, und die Schlussfolgerung zeigt das Potenzial der Instrumente für die Gestaltung von Übergangsprozessen und für die Verringerung des Verbrauchs natürlicher Ressourcen durch die Unterstützung von Entscheidungen und Wahlmöglichkeiten von Lebensmittelanbietern und Verbrauchern.
The impact of Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) processing pre-treatment on the texture and kinetics of in vitro starch digestibility of French fries made from two potato cultivars (Solanum tuberosum L.) containing dry matter content ranging from 19 to 22% was investigated. Whole and steam-peeled potato tubers were treated with a pilot scale PEF unit (electric field strength of 1.1 and 1.9 kV/cm with energy input <10 kJ/kg or ∼50 kJ/kg). This trial was carried out in a commercial French-fry plant using an industrial scale cutter, blancher, fryer and blast-freezer to prepare the frozen par-fried French fry samples. After subsequent final batch frying of the frozen fries, at 180 °C for 3 min to mimic the typical preparation practice at restaurant, retail and household, the outer crust of the fries produced from PEF-treated potatoes was significantly harder (9.4–16.3 N) than crust produced from untreated potatoes (6.9–8.5 N). High intensity (1.9 kV/cm with energy input ∼50 kJ/kg) PEF processing was found to cause defects (i.e. hollowness in the internal core) in the fries. A fractional conversion model was a good fit for the starch digestion kinetics of all French fry samples during the small intestinal phase (based on standardised INFOGEST static in vitro digestion assay). A lower % of total starch hydrolysis was predicted for French fries produced from high dry matter (>21%) tubers pretreated with PEF at electric field strength of 1.9 kV/cm. The findings generated in this study demonstrate PEF pretreatment may influence the texture of French fries and the extent of starch digestion that occurs.
The impact of pulsed light (PL) treatment on naturally occurring microorganisms, mycotoxins, and on physicochemical properties in red pepper powder was investigated. Powder samples were exposed to different PL treatments up to 61 pulses, with fluence ranging from 1.0 to 9.1 J/cm2. The highest fluence applied (9.1 J/cm2, 61 pulses, 20 s) resulted in 2.7, 3.1, and 4.1 log CFU/g reduction of yeasts, molds, and total plate counts (TPC), where initial microbial loads were 4.6, 5.5, and 6.5 log CFU/g, respectively. At the same fluence intensity, a maximum reduction of 67.2, 50.9, and 36.9% of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), total aflatoxins (AF), and ochratoxin A (OTA) were detected, respectively. Proportional increase in temperature of the samples was observed from the absorbed PL energy, reaching maximum of 59.8°C. The inactivation of investigated microorganisms and mycotoxins followed first-order kinetics (R2 > 0.95). The fluence intensity at 6.9 and 9.1 J/cm2 did not cause degradation, but rather a significant (p < .05) and apparent increase of total phenols. Total color difference (ΔE*) revealed only “slight differences,” compared to the untreated sample. In conclusion, higher reduction of microbial load and mycotoxins in red pepper powder could be achieved, when higher treatment intensity was applied. This suggests the PL as a potential technology for decontamination of red pepper powder and other spice powders.

The influence of moderate electric fields (MEF) on thermally induced gelation and network structures of patatin enriched potato protein (PPI) was investigated. PPI solutions with 9 wt% protein (pH 7) and 25 mM NaCl were heated from 25 to 65 °C via OH (3–24 V/cm) or conventional heating (COV) at various come-up (240 s and 1200 s) and holding times (30 s and 600 s). Self-standing gels were produced but less proteins denatured when heated via OH. Further, SDS-PAGE and GPC measurements revealed more native patatin remaining after OH treatment. Scanning electron microscopy showed OH gels to have more gap-like structures and frayed areas than COV treated gels which resulted in lower water holding capacity. On molecular scale, less hydrophobic interactions were measured within the protein network and FTIR trials showed the MEF to affect beta-sheet structures. OH gels further showed lower rigidity and higher flexibility, thus, gelling functionality was affected via OH.
