  • The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of an atmospheric pressure plasma (APP) jet on L. monocytogenes inactivation, quality characteristics, and genotoxicological safety of cooked egg white and yolk. APP treatment using He gas resulted in a 5 decimal reduction in the number of L. monocytogenes in cooked egg white, whereas that using $He+O_2$, $N_2$, and $N_2+O_2$ decreased the number further, and to undetectable levels. All treatments of cooked egg yolk resulted in undetectable levels of inoculated L. monocytogenes. There were no viable cells of total aerobic bacteria after APP treatment on day 0 while the control showed approximately 3-4 Log CFU/g. On day 7, the numbers of total aerobic bacteria had increased by approximately 3 log cycles in cooked egg white, but there were no viable cells in cooked egg yolk after 2 min of APP jet. APP treatment decreased the $L^*$-values of cooked egg white and yolk significantly on day 0. No significant sensory differences were found among the cooked egg white samples, whereas significant reductions in flavor, taste, and overall acceptability were found in cooked egg yolks treated with APP jets. SOS chromotest did not reveal the presence of genotoxic products following APP treatments of cooked egg white and yolk. Therefore, it can be concluded that APP jets can be used as a non-thermal means to enhance the safety and extend the shelf-life of cooked egg white and yolk.

  • This study prepared steamed eggs at various ratios of yolk and white in packaged liquid eggs to investigate the quality characteristics of steamed eggs through sensory tests and analyses of water content, color, pH and texture profiles. The results are expected to be used in developing steamed egg products and preparing processed egg dishes. Moisture contents of steamed egg samples increased with increased percentage of egg white. Hunter color values of L(lightness) also increased with increased percentage of egg white, while a(redness) and b(yellowness) decreased. Moreover, pH increased with increased percentage of egg white. Texture profile analyses in hardness, springiness, chewiness, gumminess, and cohesiveness decreased significantly with increased percentage of white, but adhesiveness was not significantly different. As the results of sensory test, yellowness increased with increased percentage of yolk. Roasted nutty smell was highest in the steamed egg sample prepared with 250g yolk and 200g white, and fishy smell increased and boiled egg smell decreased with increased percentage of white. Roasted nutty taste and fishy taste increased with increased percentage of white. In contrast with brittleness, hardness, springiness, and chewiness decreased with increased percentage of egg white. The acceptance score was high in the steamed egg samples prepared with a ratio of egg yolk 250/egg white 200 or egg yolk 150/egg white 300.

  • Objective: A study was conducted to develop non-dairy creamer analogs/mimics using egg white, egg yolk, soy protein and their combinations, and their nutrient content, shelf-life and flavor acceptability were compared. Methods: Spray dried egg white, egg yolk, and soy protein isolate were purchased from manufacturers and used for the formulae. Results: The protein contents of the non-dairy creamer analogs/mimics were about 8.5% as calculated. The amounts of oleic and linoleic acid content increased as the amount of yolk increased in the formula, but the increases of polyunsaturated fatty acids were <0.5% of total fat. Addition of egg yolk to the formula increased choline and lutein content in the products, but the amounts were <0.4 mg/g for choline and $4{\mu}g/g$ for lutein. The lutein in the products continued to decrease over the storage time, and only about 15% to 20% of the 0-month amounts were left after 3 months of storage. Although the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances values of the spray-dried non-dairy creamer analogs/mimics increased as storage time increased, the values were still low. Yellowness, darkness, and egg flavor/odor of the non-dairy creamer analogs/mimics increased as the amount of egg yolk in the formula increased. The overall acceptability of the non-dairy creamer analogs/mimics was closely related to the intensity of egg flavor/odor, but storage improved their overall acceptance because most of the off-odor volatiles disappeared during the storage. Water temperature was the most important parameter in dissolving spray-dried non-dairy creamer analogs/mimics, and $55^{\circ}C$ to $75^{\circ}C$ was the optimal water temperature conditions to dissolve them. Conclusion: Higher amounts of yolk and soy protein combinations in place of egg white reduced the cost of the products significantly and those products contained better and balanced nutrients than the commercial coffee creamers. However, off-flavor and solubility were two important issues in the products.

  • This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of the laying hens on the immune response against bovine serum albumin(BSA) in egg yolk. Total 45 laying hens were divided into three groups according to breeds (White Leghorn, ISA Brown, Native hen). They were fed the experimental diet for 12 weeks. Immune response were examind in egg yolk from three groups of hens injected with BSA. The results obtained from this work were summaried as follows : 1. The weight of egg yolk and the percentage of hen-day production in the ISA Brown hens are greater than those in the Native hens and the White Leghons. 2. IgY concentrations in eggs from hens immunized with BSA were not different among the breeds laying hens. 3. The anti-BSA antibody activities determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in the egg yolk were similar between the White-Leghorn and ISA Brown hens, but Native hens tended to decrease in 20∼50 days respectively. Therefore, the weight of egg yolk and the percentage of hen-day production in the ISA Brown hens are greater than those in the Native hens and the White Leghons will be as important factors for an efficient production of IgY.

  • Liquid egg products can be contaminated with Salmonella spp. during processing. A predictive model for the growth of Salmonella spp. in unpasteurized liquid eggs was developed and validated. Liquid whole egg, liquid yolk, and liquid egg white samples were prepared and inoculated with Salmonella mixture (approximately 3 Log CFU/mL) containing five serovars (S. Bareilly, S. Richmond, S. Typhimurium monophasic, S. Enteritidis, and S. Gallinarum). Salmonella growth data at isothermal temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and $40^{\circ}C$) was collected by 960 h. The population of Salmonella in liquid whole egg and egg yolk increased at above $10^{\circ}C$, while Salmonella in egg white did not proliferate at all temperature. These results demonstrate that there is a difference in the growth of Salmonella depending on the types of liquid eggs (egg yolk, egg white, liquid whole egg) and storage temperature. To fit the growth data of Salmonella in liquid whole egg and egg yolk, Baranyi model was used as the primary model and the maximum growth rate and lag phase duration for each temperature were determined. A secondary model was developed with maximum growth rate as a function of temperature. The model performance measures, bias factor ($B_f$, 0.96-0.99) and $r^2$ (0.96-0.99) indicated good fit for both primary and secondary models. In conclusion, it is thought that the growth model can be used usefully to predict Salmonella spp. growth in various types of unpasteurized liquid eggs when those are exposed to various temperature and time conditions during the processing.

  • The protective effects of egg yolk atibodies obtained from chickens immunized with fimbrial antigens from ETEC 987P were evaluated in 14 and 21 d old pigs in which ETEC diarrhea was induced. For the Exp. 1, eight early-weaned pigs($5.00{\pm}0.5kg$ average BW and 14 d average age) and eight weaned pigs($6.00{\pm}0.5kg$ average BW and 21 d average age) were used to examine influence of egg yolk antibodies on growth performance and resistance to ETEC 987P infection. Dietary treatments included 1) administered of commercial egg yolk(14 d of age; CEY14), 2) administered of egg yolk antibodies(14 d of age; EYA14), 3) administered of commercial egg yolk(21 d of age; CEY21), 4) administered of egg yolk antibodies(21 d of age; EYA21). The 14 and 21 d old pigs were challenged with 2 ml of ETEC 987P at a dose of $10^{10}\;CFU\;ml^{-1}$ per weaned pigs. Weaned pigs treated with egg yolk antibodies recovered and pigs treated with egg yolk antibodies tended to increase average daily gain(P<0.05). Also, EYA12 and EYA21 treatments were reduced coli-form bacteria concentration and increased Lactobacilli sp. concentration from feces. For the Exp. 2, sixteen weaned pigs($6.00{\pm}0.5kg$ average daily gain BW and 21 d average age) were used to examine influence of yolk or white from egg containing antibodies on growth performance and resistance to ETEC 987P infection. Dietary treatments included l) administered of commercial egg yolk(CEY), 2) administered of commercial egg white(CEW), 3) administered of egg yolk antibodies(EYA), 4) administered of egg white antibodies(EWA). Pigs treated only with EYA showed signs of recovery. Also, EYA treatment showed the best average daily gain without significant differences (P>0.05). EYA treatment was reduced coli-form bacteria concentration increased and Lactobacilli sp. concentration from feces. In conclusion, egg yolk antibodies have protective effects from pigs in which ETEC diarrhea was induced.

  • The objective of this study was to compare the change of S. Enteritidis with S. Typhimurium populations in liquid egg products. S. Enteritidis or S. Typhimurium was inoculated into egg white and egg yolk and stored at 8, 10, 15, 25, and $35^{\circ}C$, respectively. In egg white, no growth of S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium was observed at 8, 10, 15, and $35^{\circ}C$, while both S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium in egg white stored grew more than 1 log CFU/ml after 50 hours storage at $25^{\circ}C$. In egg yolk, there was no growth of S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium at $8^{\circ}C$ but growth of both strains was observed at 10, 15, 25, and $35^{\circ}C$. Since growth of S. Enteritidis and S. Typhimurium was only observed in egg yolk, primary growth models for both strains were developed using modified Gompertz equation and then secondary models for lag time (LT), specific growth rate (SGR), and maximum population density (MPD) were developed as a function of temperature. At all temperatures, more rapid growth of S. Enteritidis than S. Typhimurium was observed in egg yolk, indicating the greater risk of S. Enteritidis than S. Typhimurium in egg products. In conclusion, the results indicate that temperature control less than $8^{\circ}C$ is very important to ensure safety of liquid egg products, especially liquid egg yolk.

  • The main purpose of the current study was to compare quality of eggs 1) produced from hens housed in battery cages vs. free range, 2) from young vs. old hens, and 3) tagged with the lowest vs. the highest price in a local franchised mart. The ages of hens, at which their eggs were used for the analysis of quality, were 70 weeks old in the experiment 1, 22 and 47 weeks old in the experiment 2, and were unknown in the experiment 3. Eggs were analyzed for weight, albumen height, Haugh unit, shell color, shell strength, shell thickness, shell weight, yolk color, yolk weight, and egg white weight. In the experiment 1, significant differences were detected between two housing systems in shell color, shell weight, yolk color, and yolk weight (P<0.05), but not in egg weight, albumen height, Haugh unit, shell strength, shell thickness, and egg white weight (P>0.05). Although egg weight was slightly but not significantly higher in battery cages by 2.2 g than in free range, yolk weight was significantly higher in battery cage (P<0.05). On the contrary, shell color was greatly increased in free range system by 68.5% compared with battery cage. In the experiment 2, there were significant differences between young and old hens in egg weight, albumen height, Haugh unit, shell strength, shell weight, yolk color and yolk weight (P<0.05). Egg weight, shell weight, yolk color and yolk weight were increased in old hens than young hens while albumen height, Haugh unit, and shell strength were decreased. In the experiment 3, egg weight, albumen height, Haugh unit, shell weight, and egg white weight were significantly higher in the highest priced eggs than the lowest ones (P<0.05), whereas shell strength and yolk color were lower (P<0.05) but shell color, shell thickness and yolk weight were not different (P>0.05). So, egg freshness was clearly higher in the highest priced ones than in the lowest (P<0.05). Due to the limited information on raising and husbandry of laying hens whose eggs were tested for egg quality in the current study, the present results should be cautiously interpreted while contributing to the future study as a basis in this field.

  • The effects of different cations on its composition and flavor characteristics of pidan white and yolk produced with duck egg in comparison to its fresh egg were investigated. Mineral content such as calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium were significantly increased in pidan yolk irrespective of its cations in pickle solution in comparison to the fresh yolk (P<0.05). It confirmed the migration of minerals from the pickling solution to the egg. However, calcium and magnesium was found lower in 0.2% $PbO_2$ treated pidan. Less pidan flavor compounds were generated in pidan white produced with the aid of 0.2% $PbO_2$. It confirmed that binding of lead prevent the maillard reaction in the pidan treated with $PbO_2$. Benzaldehyde, ketones, alcohol and acid found in the pidan white treated with 0.2% $ZnCl_2$ reveals that volatiles are generated most likely from maillard reaction. However, pidan yolk of both 0.2% $PbO_2$ and 0.2% $ZnCl_2$ showed higher generation of volatiles more likely from yolk lipids. Butanal, pentanal, hexanal, and heptanal are of those aldehydes found in 0.2% $ZnCl_2$ treated pidan yolk whereas hexanal is the only aldehyde detected in 0.2% $PbO_2$ treated pidan yolk. Thus, cations in the pickling solution affect the flavor characteristics of pidan white and yolk.

  • In order to investigate the Storage time of chicken eggs, several physico-chemical tests from chicken eggs store at 5, 13 and 27$^{\circ}C$ were examined. Egg samples were collected from six poultry farms. Egg stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ based on the depth of air cell and specific gravity, were all acceptable until 17 days ; on the egg yolk coefficient and pH of the egg white and egg yolk until about 10 days. Egg stored at 13$^{\circ}C$, based on the depth of air cell. were acceptable by about 10 days of storage, but on the other physico-chemical tests by about 7 days. Egg samples stored at room temperature(about 27$^{\circ}C$) base on the depth of air cell, were acceptable by about 5 days of storage ; on the specific gravity by 4 days ; and on the egg yolk coefficient and pH of the egg yolk and egg white by 3 days. The results of this study showed that egg stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ were considered acceptable by 10 days of storage ; at 13$^{\circ}C$ by 7 days ; at room temperature (27$^{\circ}C$) by 3 days.
