This study was designed to evaluate the quality comparison of emulsion-type sausages made from different Rhus verniciflua Stokes (RVS) sources. The pigs were fed a supplemented concentrate diet with a RVS supplement of $4\%$ feed for 5 weeks before slaughter. The RVS extract was prepared from 100g of RVS sawdust and 1L of distilled water for 48 hours. Emulsion-type sausages were made using lean meat or dietary RVS han1 lean $(51.07\%)$, ice water or RVS extract $(19.63\%)$, back fat $(26.60\%)$ and other additives $(2.70\%)$. The treated sausages were divided into non-dietary meat with water (T1, Control), dietary RVS meat with water (T2), non-dietary meat with RVS extract (T3), and dietary meat with RVS extract (T4). The crude fat was significantly lower (p<0.05) in dietary RVS meat-added sausages (T2, T4) than in control sausage (T1). The lightness ($L^{\ast}$) and redness ($a^{\ast}$) were significantly lower (p<0.05) in RVS extract-added sausages (T3, T4) during refrigerated storage. The $a^{\ast}$ value was higher (p<0.05) in T2 than in the other treatments. The VBN and TBARS values were significantly lower in RVS extract-added sausages (T3, T4) during refrigerated storage. The hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness were significantly lower (p<0.05) in T2 than in the other treatments. This results showed that feeding of RVS in diet and/or RVS extract had a significant impact on the quality of emulsion-type sausage. The RVS extract-added emulsion-type sausages (T3, T4) showed dark and reddish color although they were more effective in delaying the protein deterioration and lipid oxidation. Consequently, the sausage prepared from pigs fed $4\%$ RVS with water (T2) was more effective in increasing the $a^{\ast}$ value, textural properties, and delaying the protein deterioration, lipid oxidation than that without RVS in diet.

This study was performed in order to evaluate the antioxidant activities of red beet extracts as well as the physicochemical properties and microbial changes of pork patties containing red beet during refrigerated storage. Red beet was extracted with water and ethanol. Red beet water extracts (RBW) and red beet ethanol extracts (RBE) were diluted with various concentrations (0.05~1.0%). DPPH radical scavenging activity and iron chelation activity of RBW showed a higher level than those of RBE (p<0.05). In particular, the iron chelation activity of RBW was over 53.4% at all levels. In addition, RBW at 1% had nearly 100% activity. On the other hand, the reducing powers of RBE were higher than those of RBW (p<0.05), and the antioxidant activity on linoleic acid emulsion of RBW was over 83% at all levels. Based on these model studies, 0.5% levels of RBW and RBE were added to ground pork patties (GPP), and the physicochemical properties and microbial changes of red beet GPP were evaluated during storage (0~14 d) at $4^{\circ}C$. The pH and microbial counts increased with increased storage time (p<0.05). Pork patties with BHT showed the lowest thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and microbial counts, and those with red beet had lower TBARS than the control (p<0.05). These results indicated that both red beet water and ethanol extracts could be used as natural antioxidants of pork patties during storage.

Emulsion-type sausages were manufactured to investigate the effects of CLA-vegetable oils and CLA-lard on quality characteristics of emulsion-type sausage. Each treatments replaced pork back fat with CLA-corn oil (CLA-CO), CLA-safflower seed oil (CLA-SSO) and CLA-lard (CLA-LD) were stored during 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days at 4$^{\circ}C$. The changes in physico-chemical properties, texture, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), fatty acid composition and CLA content of each treatments were measured during 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days at 4$^{\circ}C$. During storage, pH of control showed higher pH value than that of CLA-vegetable and CLA-lard treatments. The pH values of all treatments was significantly low at storage 14 days (p<0.05). The color L* and a*-value of all the treatments was not significantly changed with the storage periods. Color b*-value of CLA-treatments was higher than that of control during the storage period. Fatty acids composition was changed by addition of CLA-vegetable oils and CLA-lard. All kinds of fatty acids composition were decreased with CLA replacements than that of the control. Whereas linolenic acid content extremely increased by replacement of CLA-vegetable. CLA content of CLA-treatments was extremely increased than that of the control. The cohesiveness, springness, gumminess and brittleness of CLA-LD treatment was significantly higher (P<0.05) than that of the other treatments. The TBARS value of all treatments were significantly increased (P<0.05) as the storage period was passed. TBARS of sausage products containing CLA-CO was the lowest. Summing up the a forementioned results, emulsion-type sausage manufacturing with CLA-vegetable oil and CLA-lard was not affected in physico-chemical properties and texture characteristics. Also, it may be assumed that the high quality sausage can be manufactured with the extent of storage period and CLA accumulation.

Effects of NaCl concentration (0, 1, 2, and 3%) on the physico-chemical characteristics of dark, firm, dry (DFD) and normal meat batter were examined. Before heating, pH values of DFD and normal meat batter decreased up to 0.23 (DFD) and 0.2 (normal) units, which after heating increased up to $0.16{\sim}0.28$ and $0.17{\sim}0.23$ units, as NaCl concentration increased from 0 to 3%. Cooking loss and diameter reduction of DFD meat batter were lower than those of nomal meat batter and decreased. whereas protein solubilities and emulsion stabilities of DFD and normal meat increased, with increasing NaCl concentration. Protein solubility and emulsion stability of DFD meat were higher than those of nomal meat (p<0.05). Viscosity and hardness of DFD meat batter were higher than those of normal meat batter and increased as NaCl concentration increased from 0 to 3%.

Gamma irradiation was used to reduce the N-nitrosamines in emulsion-type cooked pork sausage during storage at 4$^{\circ}C$. The sausage without ascorbate to maximize the N-nitrosamine formation and the sausage with 200 ppm sodium ascorbate were prepared, respectively. The sausages were aerobically or vacuum packaged and irradiated at 0, 5, 10 and 20 kGy. A statistically significant difference was not shown in N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) and N-nitrosopyrrelidine (NPYR) levels in the sausage prepared with sodium ascorbate at 0 week, while the NDMA and NPYR reduction was observed after 4 weeks storage. The NDMA level in the sausage without sodium ascorbate and irradiated at 10 kGy or above reduced in aerobic packaging, while a dose of 20 key was needed in vacuum packaging. The N-nitroscpyrrolidine reduction was shown at 20 and 30 kGy-irradiation. The results indicated that gamma irradiation was effective to reduce N-nitrosamines level in sausage during storage.

In this study, we investigated the effects of reducing fat levels from 30% to 25, 20, and 15% by substituting pork fat with water and pumpkin fiber (2%) on the quality of frankfurters compared with control. Decreasing the fat concentration from 30% to 15% significantly increased moisture content, redness of meat batter and frankfurter, cooking loss, and water exudation, and decreased fat content, energy value, pH, and lightness of meat batter and frankfurter, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and apparent viscosity. The addition of 2% pumpkin fiber was significantly increased moisture content, yellowness of meat batter and frankfurter, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and apparent viscosity, whereas reduced cooking loss and emulsion stability. The treatment of reduced-fat frankfurters formulated with 20 and 25% fat levels and with pumpkin fiber had sensory properties similar to the high-fat control frankfurters. The results demonstrate that when the reduced-fat frankfurter with 2% added pumpkin fiber and water replaces fat levels can be readily made with high quality and acceptable sensory properties.

This study was performed to investigate the storage properties of emulsion-type sausage added with Glycyrrhiza uralensis and Curcula longa hot water extracts (GCHE) extracted at $10^{\circ}C$ for 35 days. The TBARS values of sausages containing 1.0 and 5.0% GCHE were lower than that of control. The bacterial count and VBN contents of all the samples were significantly increased during the storage periods, except the group with 5.0% GCHE. The redness of all the samples was lower than that of control, while yellowness of all the samples was higher than that of control. The nitrite scavenging abilities of the sausages containing 1.0 and 5.0% GCHE were higher than that of the control. It is suggested that the addition of 1.0% hot water extracts extracted from these plants may be a potential substitute for the use of nitrite to extend shelf-life of sausages.

Combined effect of modified atmosphere packaging and gamma irradiation on color characteristics of emulsion-type cooked pork sausage were investigated. Nitrosomyoglobin (NO-Mb) contents and CIE color values of sausage with aerobic, $CO_2, \;N_2$, and $CO_2/N_2$ packagings were observed during storage for 4 weeks. Irradiation reduced NO-Mb content in sausage, inducing denitrosylation of nitrite-cured meats. $CO_2$ and $CO_2/N_2$ packagings were effective for maintaining NO-Mb content. In CIE color values, $a^*$ was significantly reduced by irradiation at 5 kGy and above. The $a^*$ values of sausages with $CO_2$ and $CO_2/N_2$ packagings were higher than those of aerobic or $N_2$ packaging. Results indicated that modified atmosphere packaging, such as $CO_2$ or $CO_2/N_2$ packaging, was effective for minimizing the loss of red color in sausage caused by irradiation.
