Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15Investigation of the Effect of Gel Properties on Supercritical Drying Kinetics of Ionotropic Alginate Gel Particles(Elsevier, 2019) Şahin, İbrahim; Uzunlar, Erdal; Erkey, CanA series of spherical ionotropic alginate gel particles with different diameters ranging from 2.8mm to 5.0mm and porosities ranging from 0.899 to 0.976 were prepared by dripping a Na-alginate solution into a solution of salts of divalent cations (Ca2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+). After solvent exchange with ethanol, kinetics of supercritical drying of these ionotropic alginate gel particles in a packed bed was investigated at 308-338 K and 100-120 bar. Experimental data were compared with predictions of a model which considers diffusive transport inside the pores and convection in the flowing fluid stream. The model predicted drying profiles by taking into account only the changes in porosity and diameter of the gel particles. A convective mass transfer coefficient correlation that was originally developed for supercritical drying of Ca-alginate gel particles was found to be suitable for M-alginate gel particles.

The incorporation of 70 nmol ABTS/min/cm2 LPS into alginate films gave 0.66 to 0.85 nmol ABTS/min/cm2 enzyme activity at 0.2 to 0.8 mM H2O 2 concentration range. The antimicrobial activity of LPS system on target bacteria changed according to the concentrations of KSCN and H 2O2. The growth of all tested bacteria was prevented for a 6-h period by applying LPS system in presence of 0.4 or 0.8 mM H 2O2 and 4 mM KSCN. At 0.8 mM H2O2 and 4 mM KSCN, the LPS system also inhibited growth of L. innocua and P. fluorescens for a 24-h incubation period, whereas E. coli growth could not be inhibited for 24 h under these conditions. At 0.2 mM H2O2 and 1 to 4 mM KSCN, a considerable inhibitory effect was obtained only on P. fluorescens. The decreasing order of the resistance of studied bacteria to LPS system is as follows: E. coli, L. innocua, and P. fluorescens. The developed antimicrobial system has a good potential for use in meat, poultry, and seafood since alginate coatings are already used in these products. Further studies are needed to test the LPS incorporated edible films in real food systems.
