description | Cold plasma (CP) is a non-thermal preservation technology that has been successfully used to decontaminate and extend the shelf life of aquatic products. However, the preservation effect of CP treatment is determined by several factors, including voltage, time, and gas compositions. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of gas composition (GasA: 10% O<sub>2</sub>, 50% N<sub>2</sub>, 40% CO<sub>2</sub>; GasB: air; GasC: 30% O<sub>2</sub>, 30% N<sub>2</sub>, 40% CO<sub>2</sub>) on the lipid oxidation of tilapia fillets treated after CP treatment. Changes in the lipid oxidation values, the percentages of fatty acids, and sensory scores were studied during 8 d of refrigerator storage. The results showed that the CP treatment significantly increased all the primary and secondary lipid oxidation values measured in this study, as well as the percentages of saturated fatty acids, but decreased the percentages of unsaturated fatty acids, especially polyunsaturated fatty acids. The lipid oxidation values were significantly increased in the GasC-CP group. After 8 d, clearly increased percentages of saturated fatty acids, a low level of major polyunsaturated fatty acids (especially linoleic (C18:2n-6)), and a decrease in the percentages of eicosapentaenoic acid (C20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6n-3) were found in GasC-CP; that is, the serious oxidation of lipids was found in the high O<sub>2</sub> concentration group. In addition, the sensory score was also lower than that of the hypoxia CP group. Therefore, high O<sub>2</sub> concentrations can enhance lipid oxidation and the changes in the fatty acid concentration. Controlling the O<sub>2</sub> concentration is reasonable to limit the degree to which lipids are oxidized in tilapia after the in-package CP treatment. |
