Abstract:In order to understand the impact of storage conditions on the main nutritional components in different types of Food for Special Medical Purpose (FSMP) and their effects on product quality, this study investigated the changes in the content of nutritional components in FSMP under high-temperature, high-humidity, and light conditions. Five commercially available FSMPs were used as raw materials and stored under high-temperature, high-humidity, and light conditions for 5 days and 10 days respectively, and the changes in their nutrient contents were determined. The results indicate that high temperature, high humidity, and light can all cause a decrease in the vitamin C content. Among them, the influence of light was the most obvious. After 10 days of storage, the vitamin C content in the formula for premature infants or with low birth weight food decreases to 94.54 mg/100g, and the attenuation rate was as high as 9.43%. High temperature had the most obvious effect on the vitamin A content in the amino acid formula food. After 10 days of storage, it decreases to 2.20 mgRE/100g, and the attenuation rate reaches 7.56%. Under high-temperature and high-humidity conditions, the attenuation of the vitamin B1 content in all samples is less than 3%. Light has the most obvious effect on the vitamin A and vitamin D contents in the extensively hydrolyzed formula food. After 10 days of storage, the attenuation rates reached 3.62% and 3.80% respectively. At the same time, light has the most obvious effect on the vitamin B2 and vitamin K1 contents in the formula for premature infants or with low birth weight food. After 10 days of storage, the attenuation rates reaches 5.43% and 8.68% respectively. In conclusion, high temperature, high humidity, and light all have varying degrees of influence on FSMP. The research provides valuable insights for the quality and stability of FSMP products in different environments.
