Abstract
The applicability of a commercial enzymatic time-temperature integrator (TTI) for monitoring spoilage of ground beef was investigated under isothermal storage condition at different temperatures. The volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) value was used as a spoilage index for ground beef. The time taken to reach the spoilage of ground beef stored at 4, 10, 15, 20, and ${25^{\circ}C}$ were 168, 114, 60, 48, and 24 hrs, respectively. However, these quality losses of beef were not coincided with the endpoints of the three different C-type TTIs (C-1, C-4, and C-7). In order to match the TTI response to the quality loss of beef, some ingredients such as enzyme and substrate solutions were extracted from C-1TTI and remixed with different amount of them in the tubes to constitute the modified TTIs. The responses of the modified CM-1 TTI were very close to the quality loss of beef stored at 20 and ${25^{\circ}C}$, but not at other temperatures tested. The response of the other modified CM-2 TTI was only matched to the quality loss of beef stored at ${15^{\circ}C}$. Therefore, systematic kinetic studies of food spoilage and the TTI response are required to apply the TTI as a quality indicator for a specific food.
