Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate quality characteristics of reduced-salt pork sausage (PS) using pre-rigor muscle compared to those of regular-salt PS. In addition, effects of freezing on sausage batter with different temperatures (-30℃ vs -70℃) on quality characteristics of both sausage batter and cooked sausages during frozen storage were observed. Methods: Pre-rigor and post-rigor pork hams were used to manufacture low-fat sausages. Sausages using post-rigor (Post) muscle were manufactured at a salt level of 1.5%, whereas those with pre-rigor (Pre) muscle were processed at salt level of 1.0%. After these muscles were made at two salt levels (1.5% salt, Post-rigor; 1.0% salt, Pre-rigor), Sausage batters were stored at two frozen temperatures (-30℃ vs -70℃). During storage for 12 wks, they were measured for physicochemical and textural properties every 4 wks up to 12 wks. Results: pH values and temperatures of sausage batter of pre-rigor muscle were higher than those of post-rigor muscle regardless of the frozen temperature. The lightness and yellowness values of batter at the initial storage were the highest during storage. For PS, there were no differences in most parameters measured among all treatments. However, expressible moisture values (%) of Pre-30 and Pre-70 were lower than those of Post-30 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Regardless of frozen temperature during storage, quality characteristics of pre-rigor PS with salt level of 1.0% salt were similar to those of post-rigor PS with salt level of 1.5%. By using the pre-rigor muscle, salt content could be reduced by one third of the regular-salt level (1.5%) of post-rigor muscle.

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.

This study investigated the optimal amount of FDKP(Freeze Dried Kimchi powder) to be added in BFS(breakfast sausage) in order to develop a new Korean style processed food, which can be used as a useful export item. The results of the study suggested that BFSs prepared with FDKP were more favored than BFS without FDKP. The specific findings are as follows: The BFS added with 3% FDKP was favored most in color, taste, softness and overall acceptability by the trained sensory panels. However, in case of unbaked BFS, 9% addition of FDKP was found to have preferred color. Overall, this study suggests that 3% of FDKP was optimal for the newly developed Kimchi BFS. On top of that this study also showed possibility of standardization of product using Korean traditional Kimchi.

Emulsification sausages were prepared in 3 different ways: T1: fat added after ice, T2: fat added before ice, T3: all ingredients added together. Each sample was ground for 4.5 min by a silent cutter at $15^{\circ}C$ and emulsified batters were stuffed into fibrous casing and then cooked for 40 min at $78^{\circ}C$ to determine the effect of the order of ingredient addition on the qualities of emulsion type sausage. The pH of T1 sausage was significantly higher, whereas the pH of T3 was significantly lower compared with the other samples(p<0.05). The shear force was significantly higher in T1 sausage, however the hardness and gumminess were significantly lower in T1 sausage compared with other two types(p<0.05). With regard to sensory evaluation, the relative amounts of flavor can be summarized as T2>T1>T3, and the color was significantly higher in T1 and T2 compared with T3(p<0.05). There was no significant difference among the test sausages with regard to aroma, juiciness, tenderness and overall acceptability(p>0.05). There were no significant differences in free moisture, water holding capacity(WHC), meat color and texture properties such as brittleness, cohesiveness, springiness and chewiness. As a result of this study, the sausage were much for sausage prepared by adding the fat after the ice(T1) than the other sausage samples in which fat was added after ice to make emulsion type sausages.

This study investigated the shelf life of emulsion-type sausages containing garlic powder and/or ${\alpha}$-tocopherol during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 0, 10, 20, and 30 d. Six groups of emulsion-type sausages were included: control (no additives), GP1 (1% garlic powder), GP3 (3% garlic powder), AT100 (100 IU of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol/kg of sausage), AT200 (200 IU of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol/kg of sausage), and GP1+AT100 (1% garlic powder+100 IU of ${\alpha}$-tocopherol/kg of sausage). During storage, the pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, and residual nitrite content were reduced by the addition of garlic powder and/or ${\alpha}$-tocopherol relative to the control (p<0.05). In addition, emulsion-type sausages supplemented with garlic powder and/or ${\alpha}$-tocopherol improved color stability (p<0.05). The results suggest that a higher amount of garlic powder and their different combinations could improve the shelf life of emulsion-type sausages and protect against lipid oxidation.

The bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici KFRI 168 exhibited a wide antimicrobial spectrum including many strains of lactic acid bacteria, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecium by both disk and deferred assay methods. Inhibition of Lis. monocytogenes and Stph. aureus were observed only from deferred assay. Gram-negative bacteria were not inhibited. Bacteriocin production was observed at 10 h, and was maximized at 16 h in MRS broth incubated at $37^{\circ}C$. In a beaker sausage fermented with P. acidilactici KFRI 168, viable counts of Stph. aureus, Salmonella, Escherichia coli, Clostridium perfringens, and Lis. monocytogenes were reduced by 2.8, 2.3, 2.4, 0.7, and 0.5 log CFU/g, respectively. Inoculated P. acidilactici KFRI 168 maintained its viable count of more than $10^8$ CFU/g during the whole fermentation period, and it took less than 8 h to reduce sausage pH below 5.

Silk fibroin (SF) film containing catechin was prepared and the antimicrobial activity as well as physical property of the film was examined. Tensile strength of the SF film decreased with increasing concentration of catechin, and water vapor permeability of the film decreased. The film's antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli O157:H7 increased with increasing catechin concentration. Sausage samples were inoculated with E. coli 0157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes, and the sausage packaged with the SF film containing catechin had a decrease in the populations of E. coli O157:H7 and L. monocytogenes by 0.83 and 0.85 log CFU/g after 12 days of storage, respectively, compared to the control. In addition, the sausage had a better quality than the control regarding lipid oxidation. Our results indicate that sausages can be packed with the SF film containing catechin to extend shelf life.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of chicken breast meat on the quality of mackerel sausages. The mackerel sausages were manufactured by additions of 5%, 7%, and 10% of chicken breast meat. The lightness of mackerel sausages showed no significant differences between the control and addition groups. The redness increased in a dose-dependent manner, but the yellowness decreased significantly with the addition of 7% chicken breast meat (p<0.05). The whiteness value of mackerel sausage added with 7% chicken breast meat was significantly higher than those of the other groups (p<0.05). In texture analysis, the hardness and adhesiveness of the mackerel sausage added with 5% of chicken breast meat showed no significant differences as compared to the control. However, the mackerel sausages added with 7% and 10% of chicken breast meat showed a dose-dependent decrease. The gel strength of the mackerel sausage added with 5% chicken breast meat was not significantly different from the control, but the addition of 7% and 10% chicken breast meat reduced the gel strength of the mackerel sausage. In sensory evaluation, the mackerel sausages prepared with chicken breast meat have higher scores in smell, taste, texture, hardness, chewiness, and overall preference as compared to the no addition group. Therefore, these results suggest that the optimal condition for improving the properties within mackerel sausages was 5% addition of chicken breast meat.

This study was conducted to evaluate the qualities of mackerel Scomber japonicus sausage prepared with Theragra chalcogramma surimi (TS, A grade), Nemipterus virgatus surimi (NS, A grade) (0, 5, 7, 10%), and 7% NS with starch (0, 1, 2, 3%). The whiteness of the mackerel sausage was significantly increased by adding TS and NS, but that of the NS with starch groups was decreased compared with the control. The hardness increased significantly with the addition of TS, whereas the NS and NS with starch groups showed no considerable differences compared with the control. The gel strength was not significantly different among the mackerel sausage additive groups. In the sensory evaluation, the mackerel sausages containing 5% TS, 7% NS, and 7% NS with 2% starch had the highest overall preference. In conclusion, these results suggest that 5% TS, 7% NS, and 7% NS with 2% starch improve the quality, texture and sensory properties of mackerel sausage.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of kimchi powder and onion peel extract on the quality characteristics of emulsion sausage manufactured with irradiated pork. The emulsion sausages were formulated with 2% kimchi powder and/or 0.05% onion peel extract. The changes in pH value of all treatments were similar, depending on storage periods. The addition of kimchi powder increased the redness and yellowness of the emulsion sausage. The addition of onion peel extract decreased the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances value of the emulsion sausages prepared with irradiated pork. The volatile basic nitrogen value of the emulsion sausage prepared with kimchi powder was the highest, whereas that of the emulsion sausage prepared with onion peel extract was the lowest. The treatment without kimchi powder or onion peel extract and the treatments prepared with onion peel extract showed lower microbial populations than the other treatment. Sensory evaluations indicated that a higher acceptability was attained when kimchi powder was added to the emulsion sausages manufactured with irradiated pork. In conclusion, our results suggest that combined use of kimchi powder and onion peel extract could improve quality characteristics and shelf stability of the emulsion sausage formulated with irradiated pork during chilled storage.
