چکیده انگلیسی


• Cold plasma was applied to brown rice (BR).
• Safety and quality of BR were evaluated after the plasma treatment.
• The cold plasma significantly reduced the number of pathogens.
• pH, color, hardness, α-amylase activity, and water uptake of BR were changed.

This study evaluated the microbial and physicochemical characteristics of brown rice (BR) treated with cold plasma. Cold plasma was generated in a plastic container (250 W, 15 kHz, ambient air) and the cold plasma was applied to BR samples for periods of 5, 10 and 20 min. When BR samples were inoculated with Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, and Escherichia coli O157:H7, a 20 min plasma treatment resulted in a reduction in bacterial counts by approximately 2.30 log CFU/g. The pH of the BR decreased slightly after the 5 min plasma treatment. BR with hunter color L* showed an increase in pH, and the a* and b* values decreased as a result of the plasma treatment. The α-amylase activity and water uptake rate increased significantly (p < 0.05), while hardness decreased significantly (p < 0.05). The results of this study indicate that cold plasma treatments can improve the microbial quality of BR and produce slight changes to the physicochemical quality of BR.
