Effect of Plasma-Chemically Activated Aqueous Solutions on the Process of Disinfection of Food Production Equipment

The result of the conducted research is the development of buckwheat malt production technology using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions. Buckwheat grain with high starch content became the object of research. The main technological problem is obtaining high-quality brewing malt suitable for the production of gluten-free beer. The expediency of using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions as an intensifier of the process of germination of buckwheat grains and an effective disinfectant of buckwheat malt has been experimentally proven. It is shown that the use of plasma chemical activation of technological solutions allows to speed up the process of moistening of buckwheat grain by more than 2 times. The energy and germination capacity of buckwheat grains, when using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions, underwent positive changes. The effect of increasing the energy of germination was from 8 to 14 %, and the ability to germinate was 2–9 %. The amylolytic activity of buckwheat malt was analyzed, an increase in amylolytic activity in the range of 30–77 units/g was noted. The extractability of buckwheat malt was investigated separately. This indicator increased by 2–9 % depending on the concentration of peroxides in the solution. The Kolbach index also increased by 2–10 %, which indicates an intensive course of proteolysis. The total amount of amino acids in the experimental samples increased by 619 mg/100 g. There was a significant decrease in the viscosity of the wort, which indicates the high solubility of the obtained buckwheat malt. The technology can be applied in the industrial production of brewing malt and sprouted buckwheat grain of functional purpose. The developed buckwheat malting technology will receive priority in the production of environmentally friendly buckwheat malts of universal purpose that are not contaminated with pathogenic microflora

The result of the research is the development of a technology for the production of germinated flaxseed using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions. The object of research was flaxseed. An urgent technological problem is the intensification of the bioactivation process of flaxseed and its effective disinfection. The expediency of using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions as an intensifier of the process of flaxseed germination and an effective disinfectant of food raw materials was experimentally proven. It is shown that the use of plasma-chemical activation of process solutions not only accelerates flaxseed germination, but also contributes to a more active accumulation of biologically valuable components in flax raw materials. The composition of flaxseed as a raw material derivative was analyzed. Germinated flaxseed, which is considered a high-value component of food products, was studied separately. An increase in the moisture content of flaxseed during the soaking process by 0.7–1.7 % was recorded. Seedling development increases by 2–9 mm. The germination energy and capacity increase by 5–12 %. The biomass of germinated seeds increases by 39–56 %. In the process of germination, the content of proteins in flaxseed increases from 21.88 to 23.71 %, reducing sugars from 2.37 to 4.02 %. The total content of amino acids increases from 3.64 to 10.38 % compared to the control, and 10 times compared to the raw material. A significant accumulation of vitamins was noted: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, C, E. In addition, plasma-chemically activated solutions effectively disinfect germinated flaxseed. The technology can be applied in the production of enrichment components of food products. The developed technology will receive special attention in the production of functional food products

The result of the conducted research is the development of a technology for the production of buckwheat groats using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions. The research object was buckwheat grain. An urgent technological problem is the preservation of biologically valuable components of buckwheat during technological operations and optimization of the existing technology for the production of buckwheat groats. The expediency of using plasma-chemically activated aqueous solutions as an intensifier of the technological process of production of buckwheat groats and an effective groats disinfectant has been experimentally proven. It is shown that the use of plasma-chemical activation of technological solutions allows reducing the temperature and accelerating the course of hydrothermal treatment of buckwheat grain. The composition of buckwheat grain as a raw material was analyzed. The obtained buckwheat groats were studied separately. A reduction in tempering time from 6–10 to 2 h and a decrease in the optimal moistening temperature from 60 to 40 °C were recorded. This allows preserving a number of biologically important components in buckwheat grain. The groats yield increases from 68 to 74 %, i.e. by 1.9–6.0 %. The preservation of the maximum number of amino acids is observed, namely, 7.7 % more than in the control. That is, only 2 % is lost during technological processing, instead of 9.7 % in the control sample. The vitamin composition also remains stable and almost does not decrease in terms of B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, K, E, PP, R. In addition, plasma-chemically activated solutions qualitatively disinfect grain raw materials during processing, which has a positive effect on further storage of buckwheat groats. The technology can be applied in the industrial production of high-quality buckwheat groats. The developed technology will receive special attention in the production of ecologically clean cereal products that are not contaminated with pathogenic microflora
