Consumer properties of meat largely depend on the physical and chemical composition. Camel meat has a high content of nutrients in an easily digestible form, which is attractive for processing into functional products. An obstacle to the use of camel meat is the stiffness of the meat and low moisture-binding capacity. This proves the relevance of research in this area. The purpose of the article is to determine for the development of the technology of boiled camel sausages to select herbal supplements to extend the shelf life. A study was made of the influence of herbal supplements on the quality indicators of boiled camel sausages. Crushed ginger and sea buckthorn were chosen as herbal ingredients. As a result of the study, the effect on the organoleptic characteristics of boiled camel sausage, added crushed sea buckthorn berries and crushed ginger root was studied, the doses of additives were selected depending on the change in taste, and the effect on the quality indicators of boiled sausages.

This article examines the effect of antioxidants such as dehydroquercetin and ascorbic acid on the quality parameters of meat (thiobarbituric number, acid number and peroxide number). Antioxidants were added in different proportions, as a result of the experiment, the optimal amount for adding to meat was obtained, which was confirmed by a mathematical and statistical method. The results of the study were used to improve the technology and determine the levels of the introduction of plant extracts with antioxidant properties in the production of minced meat semi-finished products. The effect of plant extracts with antioxidant properties on oxidative processes in minced meat products has been studied.

The knowledge of the grinding processes of the pulp of fruits and vegetables is not sufficient. In this article, we examined the processes of destruction, grinding, mixing the pulp of watermelon. The criterion equations of these processes are derived taking into account the indicators of the pulp and peel of the watermelon. The derivation of criteria equations for calculating the characteristics of the processes used in the processing of watermelon fruits is considered. The mechanic-technological basis for calculating and designing machines for processing watermelons for food purposes is outlined. The results of experimental studies to determine the optimal kinematic and structural parameters of these machines are presented. The basic physic mechanical and rheological properties of watermelon fruits are given. One of the tasks set for the researcher was to choose a physical model of the processes of separation of pulp from the crust, destruction, grinding of pulp and mixing of the pulp. The values of these quantities depend both on the kinematic parameters of the dynamic interaction and on the physic mechanical and rheological properties of the fruits of melons. The obtained criteria equations can be used to determine the technological parameters of machines where it is necessary to destroy the fetus with minimal energy costs.
