This study was conducted to evaluate the substitution effect of red beet powder on sodium nitrite in emulsion-type pork sausages, and to investigate the effect of the addition of red beet powder on the physicochemical characteristics of emulsion-type pork sausages at 10° C for 6 weeks. The treatments were divided into five groups: Control (sodium nitrite 0.01%), T1 (sodium nitrite 0.005% + red beet powder 0.5%), T2 (sodium nitrite 0.005% + red beet powder 0.25%), T3 (red beet powder 0.5%), and T4 (red beet powder 0.25%). In the CIE* I didn't delete this asterisk (*) because it might be a marker for something you wish to add later, but please note that if there is no significance for the asterisk, it should be removed as a typographical error. color of emulsion-type pork sausages, the lightness value of the control was significantly higher than for the other groups (p

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional properties of herbal medicine aqueous extracts as natural preservatives to improve the quality characteristics and oxidative stability of emulsion-type pork sausage. The pH value was significantly higher in sausages of control than in groups containing herbal medicine extracts (p

The effects of Coptis chinensis Franch (CCF) powder extract and potassium sorbate addition on the quality characteristics of sausages during cold storage were investigated. Sausages were prepared with potassium sorbate (0.2 %) and CCF extracts (0.2 and 0.4 %) and stored for 4 weeks. Compared to the control, lipid oxidation values dose-dependently decreased in sausages containing CCF before and after 4 weeks of storage. The addition of CCF increased the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) radical scavenging activity of sausages. Hardness, cohesiveness, and springiness of sausage samples did not show any consistent trends. The chewiness decreased in the control and in sausages containing CCF at 4 weeks of storage, whereas the adhesiveness increased after 4 weeks in sausages containing potassium sorbate and 0.2 % CCF. The lightness, redness, and whiteness dose-dependently decreased in sausages containing potassium sorbate and CCF, whereas yellowness dose-dependently increased before and after 4 weeks of storage. During storage, compared to the control, the total plate count and lactic acid bacteria diminished in sausages with potassium sorbate and CCF. In sensory evaluation, the overall acceptability of sausages was significantly influenced by CCF addition and was lower than that of the control sausages and sausages containing potassium sorbate alone.

The effects of biopolymer encapsulation and sodium replacement combination technology on quality characteristics (i.e., bitter taste) and inhibition of sodium absorption from pork sausage in mice were evaluated. The sausages were divided into three different sodium replacement groups (none, 40%, and 50%) and three different biopolymer encapsulation groups (none, cellulose, and chitosan) in combination. In groups with 50% sodium replacement by KCl and MgCl2, T8 (chitosan encapsulation) showed the highest inhibition of the sodium absorption rate. However, chitosan encapsulation groups (T2, T5, and T8) had higher bitterness and lower overall acceptability than other treatment groups. In contrast, in the group with 40% sodium replacement by KCl, T4 (cellulose encapsulation) exhibited the highest inhibition of sodium absorption without a bitter taste. This is the first report showing that 40-50% sodium replacement combined with 3% cellulose encapsulation reduced sodium absorption from sausage by 60% without causing a bitter taste.

This study was performed to examine the feasibility of using the low plane of nutrition (LPN) as a means of improving the meat quality of crossbred finishing pigs with a medium weight gain potential. Twenty-four barrows and 24 gilts weighing approximately 48 kg were placed on LPN [a finisher (2.86 Mcal ME/kg and 0.67% lysine) for 91 d] or on a high plane of nutrition [HPN; a commercial grower for 38 d and a finisher (3.35 Mcal ME/kg and 0.9% lysine) for 46 d]. Five barrows and five gilts per treatment weighing approximately 125 kg were slaughtered after the indicated days on the respective diets, followed by physicochemical analysis and sensory evaluation on their muscles. Overall average daily gain was 12.6% less in the LPN group vs. the HPN group (p

The purpose of this study was to assess red beet as a natural colorant in emulsified pork sausage and to investigate the effect of red beet on quality characteristics of emulsified pork sausage during 20 d of cold storage. Red beet was prepared as a powder and a substitute with sodium nitrite at 0.5% and 1.0% levels in emulsified pork sausage. Red beet significantly increased the moisture content and pH (p0.05). Texture and 2-thiobabituric acid reactive substance were also not affected by red beet addition (p>0.05). Therefore, red beet could be a good natural colorant in emulsified pork sausage but it needs additional processing, such as betalain concentration and extraction as a juice, to be used as an antioxidant in meat products.

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of 3 plant extracts, Saposhnikovia divaricata extract (SDE), Lonicera japonica extract (LJE), and Chelidonium majus extract (CME) on growth performance, blood cell profiles, and meat quality in broilers. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the compounds of phenolic acids and flavonoids was performed by high performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection for characterization of the selected extracts. Total amounts of phenolic acids and flavonoids in the extracts were in the order of LJE, CME, and SDE. These extracts were added at a rate of 0.2% to the starter and finisher basal diets of broilers, and a feeding study was conducted in battery cages for a period of 5 week. A total of 240, one-day-old male Arbor Acres broilers were allotted to 4 treatments with 4 replicate cages and 15 broilers per cage. The results indicated that daily weight gain was greater in the CME treatment groups and the plant extract treated groups (SDE+LJE+CME) than the control group (P=0.044, P=0.036, respectively), while feed intake was not different among the groups. The feed conversion of broilers fed the SDE-supplemented diets was lower than the control groups (P=0.044). White blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, and eosinophils in broilers fed the LJE, CME, and plant extract-supplemented diets (SDE+LJE+CME) were greater than those fed the control diets (P

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of oyster shell calcium powder (OSCP) as a substitute for phosphates in curing agent, on the quality of restructured pork ham. Restructured pork ham was processed under six treatment conditions: T1 (no additives), T2 (0.3% sodium tripolyphosphate), T3 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein), T4 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein+0.15% OSCP), T5 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein+0.3% OSCP), and T6 (1.5% NaCl+0.5% whey protein+0.5% OSCP). Addition of OSCP significantly increased the ash content and pH of restructured pork ham (p

The effects of adding mechanically deboned chicken (MDC) hydrolysates on the quality characteristics of imitation crab stick (ICS) during storage were investigated. ICS was prepared from Alaska Pollack, chicken breast surimi, and protein hydrolysates enzymatically extracted from MDC. ICS samples were divided into 4 groups: without protein hydrolysate (control), added with 0.5% protein hydrolysate (T1), added with 1.0% protein hydrolysate (T2), and added with 1.5% protein hydrolysate (T3). Results showed that crude protein content did not differ significantly among the ICS samples (p>0.05). ICS sample added with MDC hydrolysates had higher crude fat and ash content but lower moisture content than the control (p

This study was conducted to compare the carcass characteristics and meat quality characteristics of Duroc breed and crossbred pigs (Landrace × Yorkshire × Duroc, LYD). Duroc and crossbred pigs did not show differences in carcass characteristics. Crossbred pigs had higher moisture and protein content than Duroc breeds. However, Duroc breeds had a higher fat content than the crossbred pigs. In meat quality characteristics, crossbred pigs showed higher values of drip loss and cooking loss over Duroc breeds, while Duroc breeds showed higher ultimate pH value compared to that of crossbred pigs. However, there were no differences in water holding capacity and shear force value. In myoglobin content, crossbred pigs had higher content compared to that in the Duroc population. In subjective evaluation and sensory characteristics, Duroc breeds showed significantly higher scores in all categories except for tenderness over the crossbred pigs. However, in storage characteristics, Duroc breeds showed reduced tendency relative to crossbred pigs. Crossbred pigs had higher unsaturated fatty acid content than Duroc breeds did. In these results, Duroc breeds showed excellent meat quality characteristics with its higher intramuscular fat content and pH value, lower drip loss and cooking loss and higher juiciness and flavor, compared to the crossbred pigs.

The effects of C. sappan L. extract on oxidative stability, microbiological quality, and color attributes in sausages were examined. Pork sausages were prepared for four treated groups: control (without antioxidant), T1 (added with 0.007% sodium nitrite), T2 (added with 0.1% C. sappan L.), and T3 (added with 0.0035% sodium nitrite+0.1% C. sappan L.). T3 showed lower L. monocytogenes count than that saw in the control and T2 (p

This study was done to investigate the quality properties of beef jerky with soy sauce, red pepper paste, and soybean paste replacing salt. Sliced beef samples were cured in salt (control), soy sauce, red pepper paste, and soybean paste for 24 or 48 h and then dried at 70 degrees C for 8 h. Treatments showed higher final moisture content and lower Na+ concentration than the control after drying for 8 h. The lightness and shear force values were lower in all treatment samples than in the control during 48 h of curing time. In particular, lower lipid oxidation was found in the jerky cured with red pepper paste than in the control. Sensory evaluation showed that color, flavor, and tenderness of jerky samples were improved by replacing salt with soy sauce, red pepper paste and soybean paste, and higher likeability scores of the beef jerky were obtained among those treatments after 48 h of curing time.

Dry-cured pork neck samples were stored at 10 degrees C for 90 days under vacuum packaging (VP) or modified atmosphere packaging (MAP; 25% CO2+75% N-2) conditions. The pH, moisture, water activity, total aerobic bacteria, and Enterobacteriaceae counts of dry-cured pork neck products with MAP were significantly lower than those with VP (p60 days of storage were lower than those at Day 1. In conclusion, despite presenting higher lipid oxidation, the samples stored in packages containing 25% CO2 for 90 days at 10 degrees C have lower bacterial counts than vacuum-packed samples. Therefore, further studies should be performed on the packaging of dry-cured meat at adjusted concentrations of CO2.

The individual and interactive effects of Schisandra chinensis powder (SCP) and sodium nitrite additions on color, pH, water holding capacity, residual nitrite, 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), volatile basic nitrogen, texture properties, fatty acids, amino acids and sensory evaluation of cooked pork sausages were investigated after 20 d of storage at 4C. The powders (0, 0.5 and 1.0%) were added to sausages either alone or in combination with nitrite (0 and 100 ppm). SCP added-sausages showed lower L* (lightness) and W (whiteness) values, and higher b* (yellowness) values than sausage containing no nitrite, and exhibited the highest a * values at a 0.5% addition (p

Many studies have been carried out with respect to packaging methods and temperature conditions of beef. However, the effects of packaging methods and temperature conditions on the quality characteristics have not been extensively studied in low-grade beef. Low-grade beef samples were divided into 3 groups (C: ziplock bag packaging, T1: vacuum packaging, and T2: modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), CO2/N-2 = 3:7) and samples were stored at 4 degrees C for 21 days. The water-holding capacity (WHC) was significantly lower in T1 than in the other samples up to 14 days of storage. The thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and volatile basic nitrogen values were significantly lower in T1 and T2 than in C after 7 to 14 days of storage. The total bacterial counts were significantly lower in T1 and T2 than in C after 14 days of storage. In a sensory evaluation, tenderness and overall acceptability were significantly higher in T1 and T2 than in C at the end of the storage period (21 days). We propose that the MAP method can improve beef quality characteristics of low-grade beef during cold storage. However, the beneficial effects did not outweigh the cost increase to implement MAP.

This study was carried out to determine the effects of tomato powder (TP) on cooked pork patties during storage at 10 1 C in the dark. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents of TP extract were 26.22 mg gallic acid/100 g and 3.52 mg quercetin/100 g, respectively. The extract of TP showed a potential antioxidant activity in the DPPH radical-scavenging assay (EC50 = 16.76 mu g/mL). Pork patties were manufactured with 0.25% (T1), 0.5% (T2), 0.75% (T3) and 1.0% (T4) TP in a basic formula (C). The pH and volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) values of T2, T3 and T4 patties were lower (p

The present study investigated the effects of Liriopeplatyphylla extract (LPE) and Akebiaquinata extract (AQE) on breastmeat properties when used as dietary supplements of broiler chickens. First, the identification and quantification of phenolicacids and flavonoids were carried out by HPLC. As a result, the total amount of phenolic acids and flavonoids was higherin AQE than LPE. These extracts were added at a rate of 0.2% to the broiler diets, and a feeding trial was conducted inbattery cages for 35 d. At the end of the experiment (d 35), six carcasses from each treatments were used for evaluating meatquality. The experimental results indicate that color shades, pH levels, volatile basic nitrogen, thiobarbituric acid reactivesubstance (TBARS), cooking loss and drip loss of breast meat fed with 2 extracts were not different as compared with thecontrols at d 0 and d 10 of storage. However, TBARS values of breast meat fed with either the control diet or the LPE sup-plementation was increased as the storage period increased (from d 0 to d 10) (p

Fried fish paste (FFP) samples were divided into four treatments: a control composed of commercial FFP containing no breast meat batter from spent laying hens, and treatments 1, 2, and 3, in which Itoyori surimi was substituted with 7.46, 14.93, and 22.39 % batter from the breast meat of whole spent laying hens, respectively. Moisture content was significantly lower in T3 than in the FFP samples, whereas crude fat was significantly higher in T3. Polyunsaturated fatty acid contents were significantly higher in the control than the other FFP samples, whereas saturated fatty acid contents were significantly higher in T3. The breaking force, deformation, gel strength, and jelly strength values were higher in the control than the other FFP samples during storage. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), as a measure of lipid oxidation, and volatile basic nitrogen, as a measure of protein degradation, were significantly higher in T3 than in the other samples. Additionally, the control had a significantly lower TBARS level than the other samples. In sensory evaluation, color, aroma, flavor, and juiciness were not significantly different among FFP samples during storage. The results show that physicochemical properties such as gel characteristics, shear force, and fatty acid composition are influenced by substitution with spent laying hen meat batter. However, sensory evaluation scores are less influenced by this substitution.

본 연구는 과중량으로 인해 강등된 도체등급이 등심과 삼겹살의 육질 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 수행되었다. 85~150kg 범위의 500두 출하돈의 도체로부터 평균 크기의 1+A 등급 도체 7개, A 등급 도체의 상한중량(95kg)에 근접한 1A 등급 도체 7개, B 등급 도체의 상한중량(99kg)에 근접한 1B 등급 도체 12개 및 100kg 이상의 2C 등급도체 각각 12개를 본 연구의 공시도체로 선발하였다. 근내지방도는 1+A 등급 도체가 다른 세 등급 도체보다 높았지만 근육과 지방의 색깔 및 조직감 관련 특성은 네 개의 도체등급간 차이가 없었다. 등심의 색깔, pH, 화학적 조성 및 조직 감 관련 품질 특성은 도체등급 저하로 인해 단지 최소 수준만 변하였다. 등심 및 삼겹살 신선육에 대한 관능검사에서 이취는 도체등급의 영항을 받지 않았고, 수분삼출도는 1+A 등급 도체가 가장 낮았으며, 색깔과 근내지방도는 도체등급의 영향을 받지 않거나 최소한의 영향을 받았다. 그러나 이들 부위 신선육의 기호도는 도체등급간 차이가 없었다. 등심과 삼겹살 가열육에서는 맛과 기호도가 비록 구배는 낮았지만 도체등급이 저하될수록 저하되는 경향을 보였고 적어도 1+A와 2C 등급간에는 유의적인 차이가 있었다. 결론 적으로 과중량으로 인해 등급이 저하된 돼지 도체는 육질 또한 약간 저한되었는데 이는 즉 돼지 도체의 규격등급이 어느 정도는 육질도 반영합을 시사한다.

To evaluate the effects of surimi substitution to spent laying hen crushed breast meat on the quality of the Cremi during storage, this study was conducted. Spent laying hen breast meat was crushed using a silent cutter, which is normally adapted to the sausage process. The Cremis were manufactured by the addition of 5 or 10% CSBM and separated to three different groups including control and 5 (05CM) and 10% crushed meat (10CM) treatments. All cremis were packaged and stored at 10±1 o C for 3 weeks, and the analysis for the determination of physicochemical and sensory properties of cremi was conducted on week 0 and 3 of storage only. Moisture content was significantly differed depending on storage days and both 05CM and 10CM had high moisture content as compared to that of control (p

This study was conducted to find pork quality to meet the needs of consumers. Thus, the meat quality and fatty acid composition of longissimus muscles from purebred pigs (Landrace, Yorkshire, and Duroc) and three-way crossbred LYD pigs were compared and evaluated. Chemical compositions of longissimus muscles were significant (p

The effects of thyme and rosemary on the quality characteristics of sausages during cold storage were investigated. Sausages were prepared with thyme and rosemary powder (1 and 2%) and stored for 6 weeks at 10℃. The pH was significantly decreased in sausages by addition of thyme and rosemary compared to that observed in the control before and after storage. At 4 weeks of storage, the residual nitrite content was decreased by thyme and rosemary compared to the control. Lightness (L*) and yellowness (b*) were increased during storage, whereas redness (a*) and whiteness (W) were decreased before and after storage by addition of thyme and rosemary. The amount of TPC and lactic acid bacteria was lower at the end of storage in sausage containing thyme and rosemary. The 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) radical scavenging capacity of sausages was increased by addition of thyme and rosemary compared to that in the control before and after storage. In particular, T2 (0.2% thyme addition) showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging capacity during storage. In a sensory evaluation, flavor and overall acceptability were lower in sausages containing thyme and rosemary than in the control. However, at the end of storage (6 wk), aroma, flavor and overall acceptability were not significantly different among the sausage samples.

Active packaging refers to the mixing of additive agents into packaging materials with the purpose of maintaining or extending food product quality and shelf life. The aim of this study was to develop an easy and cheap active packaging for beef. Beef loin samples were divided into three packaging groups (C, ziplock bag packaging; T1, vacuum packaging; T2, active packaging) and stored at 4 °C for 21 days.The water-holding capacity was significantly (P0.05) higher in C and T2 than in T1 for up to 7 days of storage. The TBARS value was significantly (P0.05) lower in T1 and T2 after 7 days of storage. The counts of some microorganism were significantly (P0.05) lower in T1 and T2 after 7 days of storage; the total bacterial count and Escherichia coli count were lowest in T2 at the end of storage.These results indicate that active packaging using self-CO

The present study was performed to investigate the effects of the plane of nutrition on growth performance and meat quality traits, especially marbling and PSE (pale, soft, and exudative), in finishing pigs. One hundred and four barrows and 102 gilts born to Yorkshire Landrace dams and Duroc sires were randomly allocated to 16 pens at approximately 80-kg body weight, with 13 animals housed per pen except for two pens. Each eight pens received a diet containing either 3.4 Mcal ME/kg and 0.98% total lysine (high plane) or 3.1 Mcal ME/kg and 0.81% total lysine (medium plane). All animals were slaughtered at approximately 112 kg BW on an average, after which the Longissimus muscle (LM) was analyzed physicochemically. The ADG, ADFI, gain:feed as well as marbling score did not differ between the two dietary groups, whereas backfat thickness was greater in the high-plane group than in the medium-plane group (24.1 vs. 22.5 mm P (lightness) > 50, pH 5.0%, nor were these PSE-related variables influenced by the dietary treatment. Contents of crude protein and fat in LM did not differ between the two dietary groups. In conclusion, the present results suggest that growth performance and the occurrence of the PSE or 'watery' carcass are not influenced significantly by increasing the plane of nutrition in finishing pigs when the finisher is adequate nutritionally for supporting maximal lean growth. However, increasing the plane of nutrition is likely to result in an increase in fat deposition.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the addition of tomato powder [1.0% (T1), 1.5% (T2) and 2.0% (T3)] on pork loin jerky with aerobic package during storage at room temperature. The T3 sample showed lower (p

본 연구는 glucomannan, carrageenan, carboxymethyl cellulose 및 transglutaminase-B의 0.5% 첨가가 돈육껍질 돈육껍질결체조직 함유 돈육 패티의 품질특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 실시하였다. 육색의 경우, 대조구와 처리구들간 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 관능평가 또한 모든 처리구들간 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다(P>0.05). 그러나 가열감량의 경우, 저장말기인 21일에 대조구에 비해 모든 처리구들에서 낮은 가열감량 값을 나타내며, 전단가 또한 저장 14일에 CMC 및 TGB 처리구들에서, 저장 21일차엔 GMN 및 TGB 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 낮은 전단가 값을 나타내었다(P

Low-grade beef samples were divided into three groups (Ziploc bag packaging [S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc., Racine, WI] [C], vacuum packaging [T1] and modified atmosphere packaging CO2 : N2 = 3:7[T2]). After being packaged, the meat samples were stored at 16C for accelerated aging. The water-holding capacity (WHC) was significantly higher in T2 than in C and T1, whereas T1 showed a significantly lower WHC when compared with the other samples. The brittleness, gumminess and chewiness decreased during the first 5 days of storage, after which they increased in C and T1, whereas T2 showed no significant difference in gumminess and chewiness during the storage periods. The redness (a*) was significantly higher in T2 than in the other samples at the end of storage. The lipid oxidation value and total bacterial counts were significantly lower in T1 and T2 than C at the end of storage. Finally, sensory evaluation revealed that no sensory characteristics were affected by the packaging methods. Practical Applications Meat samples were stored at 16C for accelerated aging. The water-holding capacity and redness were higher in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) sample than in the other samples. The lipid oxidation value and total bacterial counts were lower in vacuum packaging and MAP than in Ziploc bag packaging at the end of the storage period. Based on the results of this study, we assume that the MAP method can extend shelf life in low-grade beef during storage at high temperatures.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of substitution of fermented king oyster mushroom (P. eryngii) by-products diet on pork meat quality characteristics, during the storage. A mixture of 40% king oyster mushroom by-products, 28% soybean meal and 20% corn was fermented for 10 d, and the basal diet was then substituted by the fermented diet mixture of up to 20, 50 and 80%, respectively. A total of 96 pigs were fed experimental diet (8 pigs per pen× 4 diets × 3 replication), and eight longissiumus (LD) per treatment were collected, when each swine reached to 110 kg of body weight. The Warner-Bratzler shear forces and cooking loss were significantly lowered in the treatments, while crude protein content and water holding capacity significantly (p 0.05). The pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), VBN and meat color in all treatments were increased as storage increased. Fermented king oyster mushroom by-products diet effects on lightness (CIE L * ), yellowness (CIE b * ) and chroma were determined, when LD muscles in T2 and T3 treatments were higher (p

To determine the effect of different irradiation doses on ready-to-eat (RTE) dry-cured shoulder hams, physicochemical and sensory attributes were analyzed during 8 weeks of refrigerated storage. The results show that irradiation reduced the redness value and increased the 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS) value as well as the irradiation aroma during storage. However, ham samples irradiated with 2.5 and 5.0 kGy did not show significant changes in lightness values compared to the control sample during 8 weeks of storage. TBARS values were lower in the sample irradiated with 2.5 kGy than in the other irradiated samples. The total plate counts of the 5.0 kGy-irradiated samples were not measured after 0 weeks. Sensory panels found that the 2.5- and 5.0 kGy-irradiated samples had better overall acceptability scores than the other irradiated samples. It was concluded that treatments with lower levels of irradiation (≤5.0 kGy) can enhance the microbial safety and sensory acceptance of dry-cured shoulder hams.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding purple-fleshed sweet potato (PFP) powder on the texture properties and sensory characteristics of cooked pork sausage. Sodium nitrite alone and sodium nitrite in combination with PFP were added to five different treatments sausages (CON (control) = 0.01% sodium nitrite, SP25 = 0.005% sodium nitrite and 0.25% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder combination, SP50 = 0.005% sodium nitrite and 0.5% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder combination, PP25 = 0.25% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder, PP50 = 0.5% purple-fleshed sweet potato powder). The sausages were cooked to 74°C, stored at 4°C for 6 wks, and used for chemical analysis, textural properties, and a sensory evaluation on 0, 2, 4 and 6 wks of storage, respectively. Similar CIE a* and b* values were determined in sausages from CON, SP25 and SP50 at the end of storage, and they were higher in CIE a* but lower in CIE b* than that of the PP25 and PP50 sausages. Significant differences were observed for brittleness and hardness when PFP was added to the sausages but were not confirmed after 4 wks of storage. The objective color score was influenced by adding PFP; however, the effect was not dose dependent. In overall acceptability, panelists favored the CON, SP25, SP50, and PP50 sausages but did not prefer PP25 sausages at the end of storage. Therefore, adding PFP to cooked pork sausages improved color and texture properties and sensory characteristics, but further study is needed to determine the proper ratio of sodium nitrite and PFP.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of moisture content on microbiological stability and texture characteristic of dry-cured ham. The moisture content of dry-cured hams was adjusted to 35% (C) or 45% (T) and then vacuumpackaged after slicing to a 1 inch thickness. All packaged dry-cured hams were stored at for 3 mon, and physicochemical analyses and a sensory evaluation were conducted to verify the quality of dry-cured hams during four different storage periods. Moisture content was significantly higher in T (44.89%) compared to that in C (35.03%). However, crude fat content was higher in C (14.08%) than that in T (11.11%). The pH, salinity, and shear force were higher in C than those in T, and dry-cured hams derived from C seemed to provide low lipid oxidation stability during storage. In contrast, T showed high CIE , CIE and CIE , and aw values when compared to dry-cured hams from C. Total plate counts and Lactobacillus tended to increase with the increase in storage period, and both were lower in T than those in C after 1 mon of storage. Our results indicate that 45% moisture content improved dry-cured ham quality as compared to that of dry-cured hams containing 35% moisture.

Swine Science and Technology Center, Gyeongnam National University of Technology, Jinju 660-758, KoreaABSTRACT To investigate the effects of Cordyceps ochraceostromat, silkworm cocoon and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) addition on the quality of cremi during storage, this study was conducted. Cremis were prepared using a 20% spent layer breast recovered protein to replace Alaska pollack with the addition of 0.1% silkworm cocoon powder (T1), 0.05% silkworm cocoon powder+0.05% Cordyceps ochraceostromat powder (T2), and 0.05% silkworm cocoon powder+0.05% CLA. All manufactured cremis were vacuum-packaged, stored at 10±1and finally evaluated for their quality on 0, 2, 4 and 6 weeks of storage. The pH, whiteness, gel strength and breaking force of cremis from T2 were higher than those of samples derived from either T1 or T3. However, cremis from T2 showed low shear force values when compared to other cremis (p

The effect of by-products of oriental medicinal plants (OMP; T1) containing 0.03% herb extracts (T2) or 0.1% aminolevulinic acid (T3) on the production performance of swine during the finishing period and on its meat quality were investigated. No significant differences were found in the weight gain, feed intake and feed conversion rate among the tested groups (P > 0.05). But the treated group showed higher (P < 0.05) moisture and ash and lower protein than the control group. The T3 group showed a lower meat cholesterol content (38.42 mg/100 g) compared to the other groups (P < 0.05). The vitamin E content of the muscle in the treated groups was higher compared to the control group. No antibiotic content was detected in all treated and control samples. The values of the volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) of the treated groups were significantly lower (P < 0.01) than the control group. The treated groups had significantly better (P < 0.05) sensory-test scores for color, flavor, off-flavor and total acceptability compared to the control group.

Imitation crab stick (ICS) samples were divided into four treatments, a control (C) prepared with Alaska Pollack as a commercial ICS, T1, which consisted of Alaska Pollack with spent laying hen surimi collected by the pH adjust method, T2, which was composed of Alaska Pollack with spent laying hen surimi collected by the filter cake method, and T3, which consisted of Alaska Pollack with whole spent laying hen meat batter collected by the cutting method. The moisture content was significantly higher in T3 than in the other ICS samples; but, there was no significant difference in the crude protein, fat and ash content, regardless of the spent laying hen substitution methods. The lightness (L∗) and whiteness (W) was higher in the control than in the other ICS samples at 0 days of storage, whereas the yellowness (b∗) was significantly higher in T3 than in the other ICS samples. The level of polyunsaturated fatty acids was significantly higher in the control group than in the other ICS samples. Additionally, the pH increased with storage time in the spent laying hen substituted samples (T1, T2 and T3), with T1 showing a significantly higher pH during storage. The TBARS value increased with storage time in all ICS samples, with T2 showing a significantly lower TBARS value than the other ICS samples at the beginning and end of the storage periods. There was no significant difference in any sensory evaluation items among the ICS samples during storage. Thus, we assumed that T3 was better than other ICS samples, because T3 method (cutting) is much easier to collect spent laying hen surimi than T1 (pH adjust) and T2 (filter cake).

Surimi-like samples were divided into four groups (C, surimi-like material made from Alaska Pollack with all cryoprotectant ingredients; T1, surimi-like material made from chicken breast with sugar and a sorbitol-free cryoprotectant; T2, surimi-like material made from chicken breast with a sugar-free cryoprotectant; T3, surimi-like material made from chicken breast with all cryoprotectant ingredients). Water and protein content were lower in Alaska Pollack surimi-like material (C) than those in chicken breast surimi-like material. Centrifuge loss and cooking loss were higher in C than those in chicken breast surimi-like material. Lipid oxidation (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) was lower in T3 than others during storage. In a sensory evaluation, overall acceptability was significantly higher in C than those in other samples during storage. As a result, we found that the raw material composition (Alaska Pollack or chicken breast) had a large influence on the physico-chemical characteristics and quality of surimi-like materials, whereas cryoprotectant composition may have less influence on the physico-chemical characteristics and quality of surimi-like materials.

A total of ninety swine (79.0±2.2 kg) were employed for 58 d to determine the meat quality of pigs fed fermented agricultural by-products (FAB) mainly consisting of brewers grain shell. FAB was replaced with commercial feed at dietary levels of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% (T1) and 30%, 60%, 100%, 100%, and 100% (T2) at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5-9 wk, respectively. Compared with the control (CON) feed, FAD feed had lower moisture and nitrogen-free extract content, and higher crude fat, crude fiber, and total calorie (p

The surimi samples were divided into four groups (C, surimi made from Alaska pollack by water washing with NaCl-free cryoprotectant; T1, made from spent laying hen breast by water washing with NaCl-free cryoprotectant; T2, made from spent laying hen breast by water washing with NaCl and sugar-free cryoprotectant; T3, made from spent laying hen breast by water washing with NaCl-contained cryoprotectant). In proximate compositions, collagen and myofibrillar protein were significantly higher in spent laying hen breast surimi samples (T1, T2, and T3) than Alaska pollack surimi sample (C). Folding test score was significantly higher in T3 in all storage periods. Spent laying hen breast surimi samples (T1, T2, and T3) had higher lighness (L*) and whiteness (W) than Alaska pollack surimi sample (C) in all storage period. In sensory evaluation, T3 showed significantly higher score in all sensory evaluation items. As a result of study, the qualities of T3 are higher than those of other surimi samples.

Imitation crab stick samples were made from Alaska pollack with protein recovered from spent laying hens breast meat (C), Alaska pollack with spent laying hens breast recovered protein and cordyceps powder (T1), Alaska pollack with spent laying hens breast recovered protein and silkworm cocoon powder (T2), and Alaska pollack with spent laying hens breast recovered protein and conjugated lino- leic acid (CLA) (T3). There were no significant differences in moisture, crude protein and crude fat among the imitation crab samples. pH was significantly higher in T2 and T3 compared with C and T1 after 4 weeks of storage. The values of L*, a*, b*, and W (whiteness) in T3 were found to be more stable during storage and W in T3 was significantly higher than other samples. T3 was significantly lower in hardness, brittleness, gumminess and adhesiveness after 4 weeks of storage. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBA) values decreased with storage, whereas volatile basic nitron (VBN) val- ues increased with storage periods in all samples. In sensory evaluation, there were no significant dif- ferences in color, odor, taste, tenderness, juiciness and overall acceptability among the samples. T3 was significantly lowest in quality among the treated samples.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of Cordyceps ochraceostromat, silkworm cocoon, and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on the quality and storage properties of pork sausage manufactured with protein recovered from breast of spent laying hen during 4 wks of storage at 4 . Pork sausages were prepared using 100% ham (control) and 40% recovered protein from breast of spent laying hen to replace pork (T1), and with added different sources to final concentrations of 0.1% Cordyceps ochraceostromat powder (T2), 0.1% silkworm cocoon powder (T3), 0.1% CLA (T4), 0.05% Cordyceps ochraceostromat + 0.05% silkworm cocoon (T5), 0.05% Cordyceps ochraceostromat + 0.05% CLA (T6), and 0.05% silkworm cocoon + 0.05% CLA (T7). The treatments T5 and T7 had higher (p

This study was carried out to determine the effects of olive oil prepared tomato powder (OPTP) used as lycopene source on fresh pork patties. OPTP was not added (0%; C), or was added at 0.25% (T1), 0.5% (T2), 0.75% (T3) and 1.0% (T4) in a basic pork patty formula and patties were stored for 7 days at 5℃. pH values of T3 and T4 were lower (p＜0.05) than those of control until storage day 3. However, pH values of treated samples were dramatically increased (p＜0.05) after 7 d of storage. Cooking loss values of treatments were lower (p＜0.05) than those of control at day 1 of storage. Thiobarbituric acid reacting substances values were lower (p＜0.05) in all treatments than in untreated samples during storage. All treated samples had lower values (p＜0.05) for lightness (L*) but significantly higher values (p＜0.05) for redness (a*) and yellowness (b*) than the untreated samples during storage. Total plate counts of T4 were lower (p＜0.05) than others during storage. In sensory evaluation, the scores of color, aroma and overall acceptability in T3 and T4 scored higher (p＜0.05) than those of control at days 1 and 3 of storage, however, statistical significance was not found (p＞0.05) among the samples after 7 days of storage. In conclusion, tomato powder-treated groups were significantly higher in redness (a*) and yellowness (b*), and lipid oxidation was inhibited, as compared with control during storage. Therefore, as a natural additive, tomato powder could be used to extend the self-life of meat products, providing the consumer with food containing natural additives, which might be seen more healthful than those of synthetic origin.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the addition of cordyceps ochraceostromat, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and silkworm cocoon on the quality and storage characteristics of pork sausage manufactured by MDCM (mechanically deboned chicken meat) recovered protein. The samples were divided into 5 groups (sausage made from pork ham; control, 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham; T1, 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham with 0.1% cordyceps ochraceostromat; T2, 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham with 0.1% CLA; T3, and 40% of MDCM recovered protein to replace pork ham with 0.1% silkworm cocoon; T4). The control sample had a higher moisture and protein contents and lower fat content than the other samples during 4 weeks of storage at 4 C. The treatment samples had lower lightness and higher redness values than the control (p

This study investigated the effects of ion water and premixed mineral supplementation on the growth performance, carcass, and meat quality parameters in finishing pigs (LY×D). Each 20 pigs were randomly allotted to three treatments; CON (basal diet), T1 (CON diet added with active water), T2 (T1 diet added with 1.0% premixed mineral). Used ion water and premixed mineral were consisted mainly of Zn and Si, respectively. Daily weight gain feed efficacy were the highest in T2, while fat content was the highest in control (p 0.05) among the treatment groups. Panel test scores of tenderness were the highest in T2 compared to the others.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of mugwort powder on meat composition and sensory characteristics in finishing gilts (LY×D). Twenty pigs (75 kg) were randomly allotted to four treatments. Mugwort powder was added to final concentrations of 0 (C), 0.5 (T1), 1.0 (T2), and 1.5% (T3) in the basal diet. Pigs were fed with the specified diet for 50 days. Carcass characteristics and cooking loss were not significantly affected by mugwort powder supplementation. The WHC and cooking loss of T2 and T3 were not significantly different than the control. However, the pH values for meat from gilts fed the T1 and T3 diets were significantly lower than the control (p

The effects of different washing time and pH adjustment of surimi-like materials from pork leg on quality characteristics were investigated. Surimi was made from pork leg by washing two or four times with water, as well as by pH adjustments of 3.0 or 11.0. The control surimi was made by two times washing from Alaska pollock. The content of crude protein was higher in the surimi manufactured from pork leg with pH adjustments. The highest gel strength was found in the control, and the control had greater lightness and whiteness value. The control had higher texture attributes than the other samples, whereas the surimi from pork leg made by a pH 11.0 adjustment had higher texture attributes than the pH 3.0 adjustment. The sensory color was higher in the control compared to other surimi samples, whereas aroma was lower in the control. However, there were no significant differences in overall acceptability among the surimi samples.

This study was conducted to determine th e effect of feeding complex of wild ch rysanthemum powder, probiotics and sele-nium on meat quality in finishing pigs (LY×D). 25 pigs were randomly alloted to two treatments; C (basal diet), T (C dietadded 0.3% wild chrysanthemum powder, 0.1% probiotics and 0.1% selenium). Pigs were slaughtered at approximately 110kg final weight and chemical composition, physico-chemical characteristics, fatty acid composition and sensory test weremeasured in pork loin. Proximate composition, pH, water holdin g capacity, cooking loss, shear force and color were no dif-ferences among the tested samples. Texture properties of hardness in treatment were significantly higher than the control( p

This study was conducted to determine the effect of mugwort powder on carcass characteristics, proximate composition, cholesterol contents, and meat qualities in growing-finishing gilt and barrow(LY×D). Totally 80 pigs (40 gilts and 40 barrows, approximately 50 kg each) with 10 pigs per treatment were randomly alloted. The diet group was prepared as 0 (C), 0.5 (T1), 1.0 (T2), and 1.5% (T3) mugwort powder in basal diet, respectively. They were fed experimental diets for 90 days before slaughtered. Carcass weight was increased by dietary mugwort powder (p 0.05), and shear force of fresh meat and fat were not differ significantly in the samples(p>0.05). Lightness (L*) of meat was increased but that of fat was decreased by dietary mugwort powder, whereas changes in redness (a*) and yellowness(b*) were unaffected by dietary supplements.(
