Cocoa bean husk is an important by-product of the cocoa industry. This study was conducted to measure the changes in the quality characteristics of sausage with added cacao bean husk powder (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2%; ascorbic acid 0.2%) at 4℃ for 15 days. The total polyphenol, total flavonoid, DPPH, and ABTS⁺ radical scavenging activity of sausages increased with the addition of cocoa bean husk powder (p<0.001). As the amount of added cocoa bean husk powder increased, quality deterioration characteristics such as pH increase, redness discoloration, lipid oxidation, protein degradation, and texture change during storage were decreased (p<0.05). In particular, 1% sausage was shown to inhibit TBARS and VBN, similar to ascorbic acid-added sausage. In terms of sensory characteristics, the 0.5 and 1% sausages received the highest score for overall preference. Therefore, we concluded that addition of 1% cocoa bean husks to sausages improved their storage characteristics and palatability.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the shelf life of fresh pork by spraying 2%(v/vf) acetic acid solution. Both treated with acetic acid and untreated pork were stored at $4^{\circ}C$. The spray of acetic acid solution was effective on growth inhibiton of aerobic and coliform bacteria. The pH, volatile basic nitrogen contents, and thiobarbituric acid value of fresh pork treated with acetic acid were lower than untreated pork during storage. Meat color was more darkened immediately after acetic acid treatment, but untreated pork was more darkened after 2 days storage.

As customers pay more attention to choosing food that will support their health, many people in the academic and industrial world have focused on developing foods made with bioactive components. Thus, the use of bioactive components rather than synthetic materials has increased. Because there are no limits to how bioactive components can be used, customers assume they are highly reliable and healthy to consume. In the present study, imitation crab stick samples were made from Alaska Pollack with breast recovered protein from spent laying hens and silkworm cocoon powder (10 g) (T1), Alaska Pollack with breast recovered protein from spent laying hens and silkworm cocoon powder (5 g) + cordyceps powder (5 g) (T2), and Alaska Pollack with breast recovered protein from spent laying hens and cordyceps powder (5 g) + conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) (5 g) (T3). The pH and shear force increased after 2 weeks of storage in all three samples. Shear force was significantly higher in the T3 sample in comparison to the T1 and T2 samples. In meat color, redness ($a^{\ast}$) and whiteness (W) increased as the storage periods increased in all three samples, whereas yellowness ($b^{\ast}$) decreased during storage. The T2 sample was significantly higher in redness ($a^{\ast}$), yellowness ($b^{\ast}$), and deformation than the other two samples. The addition of bioactive components did not influence the texture properties in any of the samples. Lipid oxidation (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances [TBARS]) and microorganism count (total plate count [TPC]) were significantly higher in the T1 sample than the two other samples, whereas protein degradation (volatile basic nitrogen [VBN]) was higher in the T2 sample than the other samples. Total amino acid content decreased in the T1 and T3 samples as the storage period increased. Consequently, the T3 sample of Alaska Pollack with breast recovered protein from spent laying hens and cordyceps powder (5 g) + conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) was found to have the necessary functionality to be considered for use in making imitation crab sticks.

The objectives or this study were to improve duck meat qualify during storage period in onion-red ducks which contained antioxidants. Experimental animals (1 day old, Cherry Valley $F_{1}$, 360 chicks) were randomly assigned in eight treatment group. Treatments were control, 3%, 6% of chopped onion-fed, 5%, 10% of onion extract fed, 6% of onion meal, 3%, 6% of fermented onion-fed. pH was significantly high (P<0.05) in treatment group after 3 day storage in pectoralis muscle. Meat color was low in r* and a* value. TBA value was not different in day 1, was significantly low (P<0.05) 6% chopped and 6% fermented group after day 3 storage. Also, TBA value was significantly high (P<0.05) in control group and was significantly low in 3% chopped, 5%, 10% extract after day 6 storage. VBN value was lower in all treatment groups except 5% ferment group than control group. Meat order was high score in 3% and 6% chopped group and duck specific smell was reduced in all treatment groups. Meat appearance was higher score in treatment groups than in control group during 9 day storage. In result, onion feeding was reduce duck specific smell and improve meat quality during long period storage in ducks.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of dietary supplementation of quercetin and methoxylated quercetin extracted from onions on oxidation of chicken thigh during cold storage. For 35 days, 1-day-old 320 broiler chicks (Ross) were divided into 8 groups and supplemented the diet; basal diet only (T1), T1 with antibiotics (T2), vitamin E 20 IU (T3), vitamin E 200 IU (T4), quercetin 20 ppm (T5), quercetin 200 ppm (T6), methoxylated quercetin 20 ppm (T7), methoxylated quercetin 200 ppm (T8). After slaughtering the broilers, thigh meats were collected and analyzed the oxidation stability during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) was ranged from 10.98~15.37 mg% until day 3 and quercetin 20 ppm (T5) significantly reduced (p<0.05) the VBN value of thigh as much as antibiotics treatment group (T2). The supplementation of quercetin at a 200 ppm level significantly reduced 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances value when compared with the control. Supplementation of 20 ppm quercetin also affected fatty acid composition of chicken thigh and resulted in increase of C18:1w9 and decrease of C18:2w6 on day 3. In microbes of chicken thigh during storage, supplementation of 20 ppm quercetin significantly reduced total microbes compare to control on day 7 (p<0.05). There was no effect on the number of coliforms in thigh with quercetin diet. From these results, the dietary supplementation of 20 ppm of quercetin may have effects on enhancing oxidation stability.

This study was carried out to compare microbiological and hygienic quality characteristics of the products reached expiration date among meat products distributing in markets. A total of 20 meat products(6 hams, 3 bacons and 11 sausages) were examined for analyses of pH, Aw, TBARS, VBN, total aerobic microbial counts, and meat colors. The pH values of samples were between 5.33 and 6.59. The water activity (Aw) of samples ranged 0.90-0.93. TBARS and VBN values of samples were 0.11-0.59 and 2.37~14.75, respectively. The contaminated levels of total aerobic bacteria were less than 2.80 CFU/g. In meat color, L*, a*, and b* values of samples were in the range of 56-72, 5.2-34 and 0.7-16, respectively. It is suggested that the quality difference of meat products is attributed to the different additives and manufacturing processes. Therefore, we suggest that the results of this study are not only applied for evaluation of the microbiological and hygienic safety but also served as fundamental information for re-establishing the shelf-life of meat products.
