摘要
Browning in the adductor muscle of bay scallop (Argopecten irradians) tends to occur during hot air drying due to polyphenoloxidase (PPO) and Maillard reaction and decreases the sensory quality and commercial value of bay scallop adductor muscles (BSAM). In the present study, the effects of glutathione on the browning inhibition of BSAM were evaluated. The PPO activity in BSAM was inhibited by 97.8 with 0.08% glutathione. The browning of BSAM pretreated with glutathione was evaluated during hot air drying. Compared with the control, BSAM pretreated with glutathione resulted in less drying time and browning during hot air drying. The results indicate that pretreatment with glutathione may be a promising method of BSAM browning inhibition during hot air drying.
