초록
[ $4^{\circ}C$ ]와 $-2^{\circ}C$보관한 배최장근과 대퇴근 모두 저장기간이 경과함에 따라서 보수성은 감소하였고, 배최장근의 변화가 대퇴근의 변화보다 크게 나타났다 $4^{\circ}C$저장구보다 $-2^{\circ}C$저장한 사슴육이 낮은 TBARS가를 나타내어 저장기간 연장이 가능하였다. $4^{\circ}C$와 $-2^{\circ}C$에 저장한 사슴육의 VBN가는 저장 15일간 가식권에 있었고, 저장온도에 따른 차이는 크게 나타나지 않았다. 저장기간 경과에 따라서 배최장근과 대퇴근 모두 pH는 증가하는 경향이었고, $-2^{\circ}C$저장구가 $4^{\circ}C$저장구보다 낮은 pH를 나타내었다. 육의 연화는 $4^{\circ}C$에서는 두드러졌으나, $-2^{\circ}C$에서는 지연시키는 경향을 나타내어 $-2^{\circ}C$저장이 저장기간 연장에 효과가 있었다. $-2^{\circ}C$ 저장구가 $4^{\circ}C$저장구 보다는 자기가 어둡게 나타났고, 적색도는 $-2^{\circ}C$가 높게 나타났으며, 황색도는 저장기간 경과에 따라 $-2^{\circ}C$저장구의 변화가 크게 나타났다.
A total of 5 female elk dEER $(220kg\pm10kg)$ were included in a study on the changes in physicochemical properties of deer meat during storage at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;-2^{\circ}C$. The deer was exposed to normal pre-slaughter handling and put under anesthesia before slaughtered. The loin and leg cuts were deboned from the carcass after 24hrs slaughter. The samples weighing approximately 300g were packaged using wrap packaging and stored for 3, 7, 11 and 15 days at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;-2^{\circ}C$. Water-holding capacity was decreased with increasing storage days at $4^{\circ}C\;or\;-2^{\circ}C$, respectively The deer meats kept at $-2^{\circ}C$ showed lower TBARS value than the meats kept at $4^{\circ}C$, and it was possible to extend the storage period of the meats. VBN values of the meats kept at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;-2^{\circ}C$ showed as edible values after storage for 15 days, although there were no significant differences among the storage temperature. pH values of loin and leg tended to be increased with the passage of storage time, and the values of the meats kept at $-2^{\circ}C$ was lower than that at $4^{\circ}C$. The change of meat softness was remarkable at $4^{\circ}C$, and the change at $-2^{\circ}C$ was slow. Therefore, it was effective to extend the storage period when the meats were kept at $-2^{\circ}C$. Color of the meats kept at $-2^{\circ}C$ was darker than that at $4^{\circ}C$, the index of red color was higher for the meats kept at $-2^{\circ}C$, and yellow color of meats kept at $-2^{\circ}C$ was more rapidly changed with the passage of storage time.
