Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 The preparation method of the flavor amino acid-glucose Maillard reaction product based on oyster meat comprises the following preparation steps:

[0029] S1, pretreatment of oyster meat: after selecting fresh oyster meat and removing viscera and impurities, the oyster meat is cleaned in flowing clean water, and the cleaned oyster meat is mixed with distilled water at a ratio of 1:5 (m / m) (when the mass of the oyster meat is 100 g, 500 mL of distilled water is added). The mixture is added into a high-speed tissue crusher, and the oyster meat is completely crushed under the set operating conditions to form a uniform oyster meat slurry, so as to release the cell contents and improve the subsequent enzymolysis efficiency.

[0030] S2, complex protease enzymolysis: complex protease is added to the oyster meat slurry, and the enzymolysis reaction is carried out under neutral and constant temperature conditions. After the enzymolysis, the temperature is increased, and the enzyme is inactivated in boiling water to stop the enzymolysis reaction. Finally, the obtained oyster enzymolysis liquid is post-treated to control the solid content of the oyster enzymolysis liquid.

[0031] S3, design and optimization of Maillard reaction conditions: the post-treated oyster enzymolysis liquid is used to optimize the Maillard reaction conditions through single factor test and orthogonal test, and the process parameter range is determined as follows: the mass ratio of lysine (Lys) to glucose is 0.5-1.5:0.5-1.5, the pH value is 7-9, the reaction temperature is 100-130°C, and the reaction time is 60-100 min. The Maillard reaction is carried out under the process parameter range, and finally the optimal process parameters of the Maillard reaction are obtained.

[0032] S4, implementation of Maillard reaction: under the optimized conditions, the oyster enzymolysis liquid is mixed with glucose at a set range mass ratio, heated and reacted in a neutral system at a set temperature, cooled to room temperature after the reaction is completed, centrifuged, and the supernatant is taken as the Maillard reaction product (MRPs).

[0033] S5, sterilization: the Maillard reaction product is sterilized by using the pasteurization method.

[0034] S6, quality detection and packaging: the Maillard reaction products are subjected to strict quality detection, including heavy metal content, microbial indicators (total number of colonies, pathogenic bacteria, coliform group) and pesticide residues, to ensure that all test values meet the national food safety standard limits, after the detection is qualified, the Maillard reaction products (MRPs) are subjected to sterile packaging, after the packaging is completed, sensory evaluation, antioxidant activity (such as DPPH clearance rate) determination and flavor substances (such as pyrazines, aldehydes and ketones) analysis are required to comprehensively evaluate its quality characteristics, finally, the sterile packaged Maillard reaction products will be used as a key high-efficiency additive in the subsequent batch of oyster beating process (i.e. S1 step), aiming to inhibit lipid oxidation and significantly improve the flavor quality of the final oyster enzymatic hydrolysate.

[0035] The glucose ratio and reaction temperature in the above steps S1-S6 will affect the flavor substances of the Maillard reaction products, and the deviation of the ratio or the too high / low temperature will lead to flavor deterioration, and the pH value and reaction time need to be strictly controlled, otherwise bitter taste or abnormal color will be easily produced, wherein the complex enzyme combination is superior to single enzyme, therefore, the enzymatic treatment is the key step to improve the content of free amino acids and flavor, and the lysine-glucose Maillard reaction products prepared by the method steps S1-S6 can be used as a high-efficiency additive, which is directly added to the oyster beating process (i.e. S1 step), and the application effect shows that the additive can effectively inhibit the lipid oxidation of oyster meat paste in the subsequent treatment, thereby improving the flavor quality of the final oyster enzymatic hydrolysate.

[0036] Advantages: the present application not only successfully prepares the Maillard reaction products (MRPs) with unique flavor and high antioxidant activity by optimizing the oyster meat enzymatic and Maillard reaction conditions, but also effectively improves the content of free amino acids in oyster meat by using complex protease in the enzymatic process, thereby providing rich substrates for the Maillard reaction; meanwhile, by accurately controlling the parameters of the Maillard reaction (such as the ratio of lysine to glucose, pH value, reaction temperature and time), the product has excellent flavor and antioxidant properties, and the introduction of the pasteurization step effectively ensures the microbial safety of the final Maillard reaction product, thereby prolonging its shelf life, and more importantly, the present application innovatively applies the prepared Maillard reaction products as an additive to the initial stage of oyster meat beating, aiming to directly improve the quality of the subsequent obtained oyster enzymatic hydrolysate by inhibiting lipid oxidation, and greatly improve the flavor stability, which provides a new and effective technical approach to improve the overall flavor and antioxidant capacity of oyster deep processing products.

[0043] Specifically, the optimal process parameters of the Maillard reaction in S3 are as follows: the mass ratio of lysine to glucose is 1:1, the pH value is 7.95, the reaction temperature is 128℃, and the reaction time is 82 min.

[0044] Specifically, the Maillard reaction in S4 is carried out according to the optimized Maillard reaction conditions in S3, and after the reaction is completed, it is cooled to room temperature, and then centrifuged at 1-4℃ and 9000-10000 r / min for 10-15 min, and after standing for 30-60 min, the supernatant is taken as the Maillard reaction product (MRPs).

[0045] Specifically, the Maillard reaction product in S5 is subjected to pasteurization at 80-85℃ for 10-15 minutes.

[0046] Specifically, the Maillard reaction product in S6 is subjected to quality detection of heavy metal content, microbial indicators, pesticide residues, pathogenic bacteria, and coliform bacteria, and the detection values are lower than the limit values specified in the national food safety standards.

[0047] Specifically, during the Maillard reaction process, the macromolecular peptides are thermally degraded to form a protein existing form containing 94% to 100% free amino acids and small molecular peptides.
