The effects of moisture content on non-fracture dynamic properties and fracture gel quality of Pacific whiting surimi were investigated to determine their relationships. Surimi samples were tested at various moisture contents (75, 78, and 81 %). Torsion test showed that shear stress decreased rapidly and strain values decreased gradually as moisture concentration increased. Dynamic storage modulus (G') also decreased as moisture content increased. A strong positive correlation ($R^2=0.90$ to 0.99) was found between the G' measured at temperatures between 10 and $45^{\circ}C$ and fracture stress values. The results indicate that dynamic rheological measurements could be used as a tool for early gel quality assessment.

The effect of rice starch at different concentrations (0, 4, 6, and 8%) on dynamic rheological properties of surimi sols was investigated by small-deformation oscillatory measurements at $10^{\circ}C$ and during heating from 10 to $95^{\circ}C$. Dynamic frequency sweeps at $10^{\circ}C$ showed that the magnitudes of storage modulus (G') decreased with increasing starch concentration while those of tan $\delta$ increased. G' values of surimi-rice starch sols during heating decreased with increasing starch concentration, indicating that the pattern of G' changes during heating was influenced by the concentration of the added rice starch. In general, the characteristic G' thermograms of all samples showed a similar sol-gel transition pattern.

Functional and nutritional soluble proteins can be recovered from surimi (and surimi-like material) processing wastewater, reducing environmental problems and the cost of an irresponsible waste disposal. Recovered proteins may be added back at a low percentage to surimi products. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of the addition of soluble recovered proteins (RP), obtained from mechanically separated chicken meat surimi-like material (MSCM-SLM) processing wastewater by acidic pH-shifting, on the composition and texture of RP-MSCM-SLM, with RP contents of 0, 10, 20 and 30% (w/w) in the mixture. For that, proximate composition and gel properties were evaluated. The fat content of the MSCM-SLM was significantly reduced to 11.98% and protein increased to 83.64% (dry basis) after three washing cycles. The addition of 30% RP in the MSCM-SLM significantly augmented the protein content to 93.45% and reduced fat content from to 2.78%. On the other hand, the addition of RP was responsible for a drastic decrease in texture parameters, reaching 252.36 g, 185.23 g.cm, and 6.97 N for breaking force, gel strength and cutting strength, respectively, when 30% of RP was included in the MSCM-SLM. It was concluded that the obtained intermediary product (RP-MSCM-SLM) is a good option to applications in processed meat products where high texture parameters are dispensable, e.g., emulsified inlaid frankfurter-type sausages, but high protein content and low fat content desired.

The texture profile analysis (TPA) parameters of commercial surimi-based products were evaluated at various compression test conditions. Cylindrical specimens of diameter to length (D/L) ratio of 1.0, 1.5, B.() cm/min were compressed to 50, 65 and 80% using crosshead speeds of 1.7, 3.3, 6.7 cm/min. TPA parameters of three surimi-based products (hardness-1, hardness-2, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness and gumminess) were analyzed statistically. The TPA parameters were modified by dividing with cross section area and strain. The TPA parameters were affected by D/L and compression ratio except for crosshead speed for all three surimi-based products. The ecommended test conditions for TPA of surimi-based products seem to be D/L of 1.5, compression ratio of 80%, and crosshead speed of 1.7 to 6.7 cm/min.

In this study, we prepared surimi from pork leg and chicken breast by pH adjustments of 3.0 and 11.0. The content of crude protein, yield, water-holding capacity, redness, yellowness, myoglobin(Mb) and metmyoglobin(metMb) were significantly higher in the surimi manufactured from pork leg at adjustment pH 3.0 compared to the other surimi samples; whereas whiteness, myofibrillar protein, breaking force, deformation and gel strength were lower than other samples(P<0.05). The textural attributes were significantly higher in the surimi manufactured from pork leg at adjustment pH 11.0 compared to the other surimi samples; whereas Mb, metMb, cooking loss, breaking force, deformation and gel strength were lower than other samples(P<0.05). Again, the content of crude protein, yield, pH, breaking force, deformation, gel strength and lightness were significantly higher in the surimi manufactured from chicken breast at adjustment pH 3.0 compared to the other surimi samples; whereas myofibrillar protein, redness and metMb were higher than other samples(P<0.05). The content of myofibrillar protein, deformation, lightness and cohesiveness were significantly higher in the suriml manufactured from chicken breast at adjustment pH 11.0 compared to the other surimi samples; whereas Mb, cooking loss, yield and breaking force were higher than other samples(P<0.05). The chicken breast surimi had superior color and gel characteristics than manufactured from pork leg, and adjustment pH 11.0 had superior whiteness and cohesiveness than the pH 3.0 adjusted sample, however, there were no significant differences in sensory attributes among the surimi samples.

In this study, we investigated the physical properties, color values of mixtures with starch from potato in preparing a cartridge for 3D printing using golden threadfin bream (Nemipterus virgatus) surimi as raw material. The results show that the hardness and gumminess of the surimi mixture added potato starch increased but cohesiveness decreased compared to the negative control. This means that the starch makes surimi stronger texture than the negative control. After 7 days of cold storage at 4 ℃, for unheated surimi, firmness is increased but adhesiveness is decreased. And among physical properties of surimi stored after heating, hardness and gumminess were decreased compared to before storage. Lastly, after storage for 7 days, the hardness and gumminess of fried surimi decreased compared to fried surimi before storage. As a result of sensory evaluation, texture, elasticity scent of surimi stored after heating were decreased but overall favorability was similar. Compared to the after storage, result of sensory evaluation of fried surimi, result of the before storage showed no significant differences. From these results, it is suggested that potato starch, which increases overall physical strength and have little effect on preference, can be used as an additive for golden threadfin bream surimi.

This study was carried out to compare the physico-chemical and sensory characteristics of surimi manufactured by four different materials. We prepared surimi from alaska pollack, as the control, by washing method. The different treatments of surimi were manufactured by pH 11.0 adjustments with barren hen breast meat(T1), commercial mechanically deboned chicken meat(MDCM)-S. Co. (T2)and MDCM- J. Co.(T3). Whiteness, cohesiveness and overall acceptability were significantly higher but gumminess, chewiness and gel characteristics were significantly lower in control than other surimi samples(P<0.05). Lightness, brittleness, deformation, jelly strength and flavor were higher but texture properties and folding test of T1 were lower than those of other treatments(P<0.05). Texture properties, shear force and gel characteristics were higher, while deformation and acceptability of T2 were lower than those of other treatments(P<0.05). On the other hand, cohesiveness was higher, and lightness and whiteness were lower in T3 than those of other treatments(P<0.05). Correlation coefficients(>0.9) among texture properties and gel characteristics was positive, while negative among surface surimi colors(P<0.05). The content of crude protein, cohesiveness and gel characteristics indicated that the acceptable surimi can be made is replaced barren hen breast meat and MDCM.

Guar gum is an edible starch extracted from Cyamopsis tetragonolobus and used as an auxiliary ingredient to enhance the viscosity and adhesiveness of food and improve its emulsification stability. Here, characteristics of fish surimi mixture with various added amounts (0, 0.23, 0.45, 0.67, and 0.89 wt%) of guar gum were analyzed. In unheated surimi with guar gum, the pH decreased as the content increased. In the color values analysis, only the b^* (yellowness) increased depending on the amount of added guar gum. The firmness increased with increasing guar gum content, and no significant difference in adhesiveness was observed. In heated surimi, a^* (redness) and b^* decreased in a content-dependent manner, and L^* (lightness) was higher than that of unheated surimi. Regarding physical properties, the highest values of hardness, gumminess, and chewiness were observed in the heated surimi with 0.67 wt% of guar gum. However, no significant change was observed in springiness and cohesiveness. Results of sensory evaluation indicated that with higher guar gum content, only the hardness increased slightly, and significant differences were absent in the remaining parameters. Thus, surimi with 0.67 wt% of guar gum is considered to be optimal for 3D printing.

This study investigated the effects of various naked barley starch contents (0, 0.67, 1.34, 2.0, and 2.67 wt%) in surimi mixtures for 3D printing. Adding starch to surimi altered its texture, potentially reducing production costs. Unheated surimi became less firm with higher starch content. After heating, there was an increase in hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and resilience, peaking at 1.34 wt% starch. Compared to the negative control, starch-added heated surimi had a tougher texture. The color values (L^*, a^*, and b^*) decreased after heating, with no significant change in shearing force with increasing starch content. Sensory evaluation indicated improved smell, texture, hardness, elasticity, and preference over the negative control. Higher starch content increased hardness for 3D printing suitability with no significant difference above 1.34 wt% starch indicating this is the most appropriate content. Naked barley starch enhanced surimi strength without affecting smell and preference, suggesting it as a potential surimi additive.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of pH adjustment and addition of sodium chloride (NaCl) on quality characteristics of pork leg surimi. The pork leg surimi was manufactured with one of following pH 3.0 or pH 11.0 adjustment and contained 2% NaCl or not; C (Alaska pollack surimi, two times washing, 0% NaCl), T1 (pork leg surimi pH 3.0 adjustment, 0% NaCl), T2 (pork leg surimi, pH 3.0 adjustment, 2% NaCl), T3 (pork leg surimi, pH 11.0 adjustment 0% NaCl), T4 (pork leg surimi, pH 11.0 adjustment, 2% NaCl). The $L^*$ and W values was increased with increasing of pH value, but the $a^*$ and $b^*$ values lower. The W values were higher (p<0.05) as addition of NaCl, but $a^*$ and $b^*$ values were lower. In textural properties, the cohesiveness was increased with increasing of pH value, however with the exception of springiness all traits were higher (p<0.05) as addition of NaCl. The breaking force and gel strength was increased with increasing of pH value. The breaking force, gel strength and breaking force u deformation were higher as addition of NaCl, but shear force lower. In sensory evaluation, the tenderness was increased with increasing of pH value and all traits of sensory evaluation also were higher (p<0.05) as addition of NaCl. There were no differences in interaction of pH adjustment and without or with NaCl on color, textural properties, breaking force, deformation, gel strength, shear force and sensory evaluation of pork leg surimi. The color, textural and physical characteristics and sensory evaluation ot T2 and T4 were similar to treatment C. Therefore, the pH 11.0 and 2% NaCl addition on process of manufacture of pork leg surimi would be recommended.
