Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to determine the optimum drying conditions for pork jerky. The physicochemical properties of pork jerky, such as final moisture content, water activity (Aw), pH, and shear force were investigated. In addition, sensory characteristics of pork jerky were evaluated and were used as a parameter for determining the optimum condition. Pork jerky samples were dried at different temperatures between 40 to $80^{\circ}C$ for the time ranged from 0 to 10 hr. The predicted values for moisture content, Aw, and shear force of dried pork samples were in good agreement with the experimental values with correlation coefficients ($R^2$) of 0.95, 0.96, and 0.97, respectively. Both drying temperature and time significantly (p<0.01) affected moisture content, Aw, pH, and shear force and their interactions were also significant at p<0.01 except for Aw. RSM showed the optimum drying conditions for pork jerky, based on moisture content, shear force, and sensory evaluation to be oC$65-70^{\circ}C$ for 7-8 hr.

This study was conducted to compare the physicochemical, microbiological and antioxidant activities of sun-dried venison amended with green tea powder (T1-3: 0, 0.5, and 1%) and Hanwoo beef jerky. Sliced beef and venison shank were marinated and sun-dried at 28-30℃ and 30-35% RH for 3.5 h. The venison jerky had a higher ash and protein content, and lower moisture and fat content than the control (p<0.05). T3 (venison+green tea powder 1%) showed a lower a_w than all other samples during storage for 10 and 20 d (p<0.05). Hunter’s color a* and b* values of T2 and T3 were lower than those of T1 and the control at day 0 (p<0.05). Saturated fatty acid was significantly higher in T1, while PUFA was higher in T2 and T3 (p<0.05). Overall sensory scores of venison jerky were lower than those of the control, except for T2, which had a similar color, flavor, saltiness and acceptability as the control. T2 and T3 showed a significant decrease in TPCs after storage for 20 d (p<0.05). The TBARS values of T3 jerky were lower than those of other jerky samples (p<0.05).

The physical quality and microbial safety of Korean beef jerky was evaluated at various steps during its preparation. Microbial counts in raw beef demonstrated mesophillic bacteria at 4.20 Log CFU/g, psychrotrophic bacteria at 3.85 Log CFU/g, anaerobic bacteria at 4.90 Log CFU/g, and yeast and molds at 1.92 Log CFU/g. Spore-forming bacteria and coliforms were not detected in raw beef samples. Spices and spiced meats showed similar trends in microbial counts, demonstrating minimal microbial contamination during these stages of preparation. The final beef jerky product exhibited counts of mesophillic bacteria at 1.15-1.66 Log CFU/g, psychrotrophic bacteria at 1.15-1.66 Log CFU/g, and anaerobic bacteria at 0.81-1.72 Log CFU/g. Spore-forming bacteria, yeast and molds, and coliforms were not detected in beef jerky. Significant differences from added ingredients occurred for instron textural profile analysis traits for hardness. In general, Korean beef jerky with humectant and tenderizer had lower hardness than control (without humectant and tenderizer). Also, the sample added with 0.01% protease from Streptomyces griseus had lower hardness than all samples. All samples had 0.7l to 0.72 water activities, and the color and pH were not shown in significant changes of all samples.

This study was carried out to investigate the textural and sensory properties of pork jerky with differently added sources of tenderizer or humectant at final concentrations of 2 or 5% (v/w). Pork jerky treated with 5% glycerol, kiwi, or pineapple had lower moisture content and water activity than that of control pork jerky (p<0.05). The addition of tenderizer or humectant resulted in a lower shear force than that of control (p<0.05). The addition of 2 or 5% glycerol resulted in higher equilibrium moisture content (EMC) than other treatments, and addition of tenderizer or humectant produced a higher EMC than that of control (p<0.05). Furthermore, addition of pineapple and kiwi to the samples affected the structures of the myosin heavy chain and the actin filaments of myofibrillar protein, respectively. Trained panel sensory evaluations indicated that pineapple enhanced the flavor score, whereas tenderness score was improved by the addition of tenderizer or humectant (p<0.05).

포장 방법을 달리한 한국형 육포의 저장 중 품질변화를 조사하여 육포의 품질관리에 대한 기초자료를 제공하고자 간장 우육 육포와 고추장 돈육 육포를 제조하여 상온에서 90일간 저장하면서 시료를 분석하였다. pH는 일반포장과 진공포장 간에 유의적인 차이는 없었으나 저장기간이 경과함에 따라서는 감소하는 추세를 나타냈다. 수분활성도는 모든 처리구에서 진공포장이 일반포장에 비해 유의적으로 높았으며, 일반포장의 경우 수분활성도가 급격히 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. TBA수치와 경도는 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 증가하였고, 육포의 총균수도 일반포장과 비교하여 진공포장이 적은 총균수를 나타내었다. 한국형 육포의 관능검사 결과는 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 대체적으로 포장방법별로 진공포장이 일반포장과 비교하여 높은 점수를 받았지만 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 진공포장에 비해 일반포장은 공기를 포함하기 때문에 지방산패에 의한 산패취가 발생할 수 있고 수분증발로 인한 식감의 저하가 문제될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 육포의 일정한 품질을 유지하기 위해서는 일반포장 보다는 진공포장으로 유통하는 것이 육포의 저장 중 유통안전성을 확보하는데 유리할 것으로 사료된다.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chicken feet gelatin and wheat fiber levels on the quality characteristics properties of semi-dried chicken jerky. The obtained chicken feet gelatin swollen with hydrochloric solution (0.1 N HCl, pH $1.31{\pm}0.02$) was dehydrated via freeze-drying. Six formulations of chicken jerky that were prepared, based on the ratio of chicken meat, chicken feet gelatin and wheat fiber, were 100:0:0, 98:0:2, 99:1:0, 97:1:2, 98:2:0 and 96:2:2, respectively. The moisture content of semi-dried chicken jerky containing 2% wheat fiber was higher than that of jerky without the added fiber (p<0.05); moreover, an increase in the content of chicken feet gelatin also increased the moisture content. The drying yield of the samples increased with an increase in chicken feet gelatin. In addition, the drying yield of samples containing 2% wheat fiber was higher (p<0.05) than those without the added wheat fiber. However, the shear force of the samples significantly decreased with the increase in chicken feet gelatin content. Further, the shear force of the samples containing 2% wheat fiber was higher (p<0.05) than those without the added wheat fiber. No significant differences, except for color, were observed in the sensory analysis among the treatments.

The aim of this study was to investigate the quality properties of beef jerky replaced salt with soy sauce, red pepper paste, and soybean paste. The quality properties of beef jerky including final water activity ($a_w$), moisture content, pH, color, shear force, total plate counts, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) values, and sensory evaluations were investigated. The sliced beef samples were marinated in salt (control), soy sauce (T1), red pepper paste (T2), and soybean paste (T3) for 24 h and then dried at $70^{\circ}C$ for 6-8 h. The water activity of finished beef jerky varied from 0.72 to 0.70. The water activity for control and T1 samples decreased more rapidly as drying proceeded up to 6 h. The samples with salt replacement showed a lower pH and lightness than the control (p<0.05). The T1 sample showed a significant decrease in total plate counts after 21 d of storage (p<0.05). The TBARS for all treatments increased with storage days (p<0.05). The TBARS were significantly lower in T2 and T3 samples compared to control and T1 until 21 d of storage (p<0.05). The samples with salt replacement showed a lower intensity of saltiness than the control. Sensory evaluations found that the replaced soy sauce of beef jerky samples had better overall acceptability scores than the other treatment samples. It was concluded that replacing salt with soy sauce can delay lipid oxidation and enhance the sensory acceptance of beef jerkies.

This study aimed to determine the effects of humectants on moisture content, water activity, tenderness, color, microbiological analysis, protein denaturation, and oxidation of jerky. A thorough search for papers published in scientific journals that examined the impacts of humectants on jerky was carried out using Web of Science, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct. Only 14 studies matched inclusion requirements. They were used in the meta-analysis to synthesise quantitative findings. In the current investigation, jerky produced with beef, poultry, goat, or pork was used. The standardised mean difference (SMD) between treatments with humectants and controls was examined to investigate the effects of humectants using random-effects models. Heterogeneity was investigated using meta-regression. A subgroup analysis was carried out for significant factors. Results revealed that the addition of humectants had no significant impact on water activity, pH, fat, ash, CIE L^*, or CIE a^* (p>0.05). However, humectant addition significantly increased moisture (SMD=1.28, p<0.05), CIE b^* (SMD=1.67, p<0.05), and overall acceptability (SMD=1.73, p<0.05). It significantly decreased metmyoglobin (SMD=-0.96, p<0.05), shear force (SMD=-0.84, p<0.05), and protein (SMD=-1.61, p<0.05). However, it was difficult to get a firm conclusion about how humectants affected the myofibrillar fragmentation index, total plate count, and 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances because there were fewer than ten studies. To sum up, the proper use of humectants in jerky demands careful attention to both type and quantity, needing a delicate balancing act with other contributing factors.

본 연구의 목적은 육포의 제조방법이 품질특성에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위하여 기본 양념(간장, 물엿, 참기름, 정종, 마늘, 양파, 배즙)에 설탕(A), 감초(B), 3종류의 향신료(정향;C, 회향;D, 청양고추;E) 추출물과 여러 추출물을 혼합 첨가(F)한 6군으로 나누어 쇠고기를 절인후, 열풍건조와 송풍건조하는 육포의 제조과정에서 근육의 미세구조 변화를 주사전자현미경(SEM)과 투과전자현미경(TEM)으로 관찰하였다. 투과전자현미경(TEM)으로 관찰한 결과, 쇠고기는 액틴과 미오신의 근육라인과 근원섬유가 평행으로 발달되어 있었고 세포의 미토콘드리아와 내막을 볼 수 있었으나 절임과정에서 근섬유가 절단되고 근육라인의 분해 및 세포 구조물들의 퇴행이 일어났다. 주사전자현미경(SEM)으로 관찰한 결과, 자연건조한 한약재 추출물 첨가 육포는 근원 섬유와 공간구조가 남아있고 육질이 보존되어 있었으나 열풍건조한 육포는 근원섬유의 배열과 공간구조가 전혀 관찰되지 않았다. 이상의 주사전자현미경과 투과전자현미경으로 육포의 미세구조를 관찰한 결과에서 한약재 추출물은 근섬유의 결을 보존하는데 도움이 되며 송풍건조는 열풍 건조에 비하여 육포의 물성을 좋게 함으로써 품질을 향상시킬 수 있는 건조방법으로 생각된다.
