The effect of meat marinating with aqueous extract of Ilex meserveae dried leaves on dry-aged beef quality was investigated. Shear force, TBARS value, color parameters, fatty acid profile, and sensory properties were evaluated in beef cuts dry-aged for 21 days. The use of Ilex meserveae dried leaves as marinade at 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% w / v did not affect the shear force and color parameters of dry-aged beef. The marinating of beef cuts with Ilex meserveae resulted in efficient prevention of lipid oxidation without impairing sensory acceptability. Aqueous extract Ilex meserveae can be applied as a natural ingredient in meat marinade to prevent peroxidation.

This review describes the effect of added freeze-dried guelder rose fruit powder (GRFP) on the quality parameter of homogenized meat products (HMP). In this study, the pH, cooking loss, instrumental color (L*, a* and b*), texture profile, TBARS (Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances), antimicrobial assay, polyphenol content and sensory evaluation of HMP were evaluated. Due to the antioxidant activity of guelder rose fruit (the chlorogenic acid dominated among the identified compounds of the fruit), it was observed that, in the samples with the highest amount of the extract, the amount of microorganisms responsible for food spoilage decreased after storage time (14 days, 4 °C). The addition of lyophilized fruits with a low pH value resulted in the highest cooking loss. The results of sensory evaluation show that, along with the increase of GRFP addition, the taste and smell of meat products become less acceptable. The bitter taste of guelder rose fruit can affect the sensory assessment of meat products. This study is of a pilot nature, further research attempts will be made to offset the problems and design certain solutions, e.g., the use of freeze-dried encapsulation and its addition to meat products.

The aim of the study was to compare the microbiological safety and sensory quality of meat products manufactured with commercial functional additives. Four functional additives (AFX, AE100, PANA4, FPRX) were used in industrial conditions in the production of homogenized meat products (thick wiener). In order to determine the microbiological safety of final products, the total number of aerobic mesophilic bacteria and the number of Listeria monocytogenes were measured. Consumer assessment and quantitative flavor profiling (QFP) were used for analysis of organoleptic quality. After 7 days of storage, it was found that the effectiveness of the selected additives against the growth of aerobic mesophilic bacteria was unsatisfactory. Only after application of PANA4 did the product not show undesirable changes that would disqualify it from consumption. Each of the functional additives used had a high level of efficacy in inhibiting the growth of Listeria monocytogenes. Meat products with PANA4 addition had the highest consumer acceptance of the overall appearance. The best intensity of flavor bouquet, meat aroma and color, assessed by QFP method, was characterized by the samples with AFX and PANA4 in their recipe.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of walnut green husk addition on selected properties of cooked sausages. Walnut green husk (WGH) decreased weight loss during storage of cooked sausages. Color deterioration during storage was smaller when WGH was used in meat products. Hardness of cooked sausages increased along with WGH addition, whilst springiness and chewiness decreased. Walnut green husk added to sausage improved sensory acceptance of smell and texture. Walnut green husk, as low cost source of valuable phytochemicals, demonstrated strong inhibition on microorganisms growth during storage of cooked sausages. In conclusion, walnut green husk can be applied in meat processing as an additive with functional properties.

Bioactive compounds of plant origin are becoming increasingly popular as food ingredients with a beneficial impact on human health. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the possibility of using different doses (0.5 g–1.5 g) of cornelian cherry juice (CCJ) as a functional additive in the production of beef burgers. Results of the experiment showed CCJ addition to cause high acidification of the meat emulsion and to decrease meat production yield was unbeneficial from the economic point of view. In contrast, the CCJ was highly effective in retarding lipid oxidation in beef burgers during storage wherein even a dose of 0.5 g CCJ resulted in beneficial inhibition of oxidative changes and at the same time had no negative effect on the sensory characteristics of beef burgers. CCJ can be applied in the meat industry to develop novel products; however, future research is needed regarding its acidifying properties.

The effect of dried pods of Caesalpinia spinosa, known as tara, on pH, cooking loss, lipid oxidation, colour stability and texture of model meat systems stored at 4 °C for 21 days was investigated. Tara pod powder showing a potential antioxidant activity was added at 0.02, 0.04 and 0.08% (by mass) directly to the pork batter and compared with a synthetic antioxidant, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and control (no added antioxidants). The addition of tara pod powder at 0.02% was as effective as BHA (0.02%) in retarding lipid oxidation in pork products during storage. Results showed that redness increased after the addition of tara pod powder. Specifically, 0.02% of tara pod powder was effective in keeping the red colour of meat batter stored under illumination at 4 °C for 48 h. Hardness of pork products was the lowest in samples manufactured with tara pod powder compared with control. Results highlight the potential of using tara pod powder as natural functional ingredient in the development of pork products with enhanced quality and shelf life.

The aim of this study was to analyze selected quality characteristics of cooked pork sausages manufactured with the addition of Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) berries preparations. Stuffings of model sausages consisted of pork, backfat, water and additives such a curing salt and sodium isoascorbate. Functional additives used in production process were two preparations obtained from dried Sea buckthorn berries in form of powder and brew. Powder of dried berries was added in amount of 1 and 3 g, while water infusion as a replacement of 50 and 100% ice water included in meat products formula. Control samples were produced without functional additives. Experimental stuffings were heat treated in water bath and stored for 4 weeks under cooled conditions (4±1ºC). Physical parameters of colour, texture profile and technological parameters as acidity, weight losses and water activity were estimated. The effect of Sea buckthorn berries preparations on lipid oxidation during storage of final products was determine by TBARS method. Studies have shown that addition of Sea buckthorn preparations to meat-fatty batters significant (P≤0.05) reduced the pH values of sausages samples after thermal treatment. Moreover, the addition of berries powder caused significant differences (P ≤ 0.05) in weight losses after cooking process. Analysis of results of texture profile analysis indicated, that utilization of infusion prepared from Sea buckthorn dried berries caused increase of springiness, gumminess and chewiness of final meat products. At the same time, the highest amount of Sea buckthorn berries powder in recipe caused the decrease of all measured texture parameters. Utilization of experimental preparations significantly decreased (P≤0.05) lightness (L* parameter of color) of meat products. Simultaneously, introduction of 1 and 3 grams of Sea buckthorn berries powder to meat-fatty batter increased redness (a* parameter) of samples under investigation. Higher content of substances reacting with thiobarbituric acid was observed in meat products produced without functional additives. It was observed that powder of Sea buckthorn berries added to meat-fatty batters caused higher protection against lipid oxidation in cooked sausages., {"references":["J. Cheorun., H. S. Jun, B. S.
