The effect of frozen storage and cooking methods on lipid oxidation in chicken meat was studied. Chicken meats were stored 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 days at $-18^{\circ}C$ and were evaluated before and after cooking. 1. The crude fat content of chicken meat is the highest thigh meat with skin in microwaving. Fat content was increased duting 30 days of frozen storage, and then after. 2. Peroxide value, acid value and TBA value was increased during the days of storage because lipid autoxidation was processed cooking and during frozen storage time. The peoxide value and acid value were higher compared to sample cooked by other methods. 3. The fluoresence units were increased with frozen storage, and initial levels of fluoresent after processing. 4. The fatty acid composition of chicken meat fats is mainly palmitic acid and oleic acid, and the effect of frozen storage and meats part is not significantly change but fatty acid significantly change according to frying that linoleic acid was increased during frozen time. From all the results obtained in this study it can be conclude that lipid autoxidation of the chicken meat frozen storage at $18^{\circ}C$ was consistantly processed, and breast meat oxidation was increased than thigh meat because chicken breast meat include many polyunsaturated fatty acid. Frying was significantly increased highest than other cooking methods.

This study was performed to examine the possibility of water extracts for several medicinal plants, such as Amomum tsao-ko, Alpinia oxyphylla, and Citrus unshiu, as an active packaging ingredient for prevention of lipid oxidation. Chicken breast meats were packed with medicinal plant extracts incorporated carrageenan based films and their physico-chemical and microbial properties during storage at $5^{\circ}C$ were investigated. In chicken meat samples packed with A. tsao-ko (TF) or A. oxyphylla (OF) extract incorporated carrageenan based films, pH value, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and the population of total microbes were significantly lower than those of the negative control (film of no extract was incorporated, CF) after 5 d of storage (p<0.05). Especially, TBARS value of TF ($0.12{\pm}0.01$ mg malonaldehyde/kg meat) was significantly lower than chicken meat samples packed with positive control (ascorbic acid incorporated film, AF, $0.16{\pm}0.01$ mg malonaldehyde/kg meat) at 3 d of storage, and it means TF has enough antioxidative activity to prevent the lipid oxidation of chicken meat. However, there was no consistent effect on VBN values of chicken meats packed with medicinal plant extracts incorporated films during storage. Based on the obtained results, it is considered that A. tsao-ko extract has potential for being used as a natural antioxidant ingredient in active packaging areas.

In this study, we sought to investigate the various characteristics of Salmonella spp. isolated from raw chicken meats available in Korean markets. The data collected, such as food source of isolation, sampling information, serotype, virulence, and genetic profile including sequence type, were registered in the database for further comparative analysis of the strains isolated from the traceback investigation samples. To characterize serotype, virulence and gene sequences, we examined 113 domestically distributed chicken meat samples for contamination with Salmonella spp. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted on 24 strains (21.2%) of Salmonella isolated from 113 commercially available chicken meats and by-products, using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Serotyping of the isolated Salmonella spp. revealed S. Enteritidis in 11 strains (45.8%), S. Virchow in 6 strains (25%), S. Montevideo in 2 strains (8.3%), S. Bsilla in 2 strains (8.3%), S. Bareilly in 1 strain (4.2%), S. Dessau in 1 strain (4.2%), and S. Albany in 1 strain (4.2%). The genetic correlation indicated that 24 isolated strains were classified into 18 clusters with a genetic similarity of 64.4-100% between them. Eleven isolated S. Enteritidis strains were classified into 9 genotypes with a sequence identity of 74.4%, whereas the most distantly related S. Virchow was divided into five genotypes with 85.9% identity. Here, the MLST analysis indicated that the major Sequence Type (ST) of the Salmonella spp. isolated from domestic chicken sold in Chungcheong Province belongs to the ST 11 and 16, which differs from the genotype of Salmonella isolated from imported chicken. The differential sequence characteristics can be a genetic marker for identifying causative bacteria for epidemiological investigations of food poisoning.

Species identification of animal tissues in meat products is an important issue to protect the consumer from illegal and/or undesirable adulteration; for economic, religious and health reasons. In this reason, accurate analytical methods are needed for the labeling of meat products with requiring simple and fast procedure. Recently, applications of PCR in food analysis have been increased because of their simplicity, specificity and sensitivity. Therefore, in this study, a multiplex PCR assay was developed for the simultaneous identification of eight species of cow, pig, chicken, duck, goat, sheep, horse and turkey from raw meats. The primers were designed in different regions of mitochondrial 16S RNA after alignment of the available sequences in the GenBank database. Two multiplex primer sets were designed as Set 1 (cow, pig, chicken, duck) and Set 2 (goat, sheep, horse, turkey), respectively. Total 274 samples from cow (n = 55), pig (n = 30), chicken (n=30), and duck (n = 30), goat (n = 40), sheep (n = 33), horse (n = 41), and turkey (n = 15) were tested. The primers generated specific fragments of 94, 192, 279, 477 bp (pig, chicken, cow, duck), 670, 271, 152, 469 bp (goat, sheep, horse, turkey) lengths for eight species, respectively. The animal species specificity was 100% in all eight samples in the multiplex PCR assay. The detection limit of the multiplex PCR assay showed from 100 fg to 1 pg of template DNA from extracted from raw meats. When applying multiplex PCR assays to sample from pork/beef and pork/chicken, beef/chicken tested raw mixed meats and heat-treated ($83^{\circ}C$ for 30min, $100^{\circ}C$ for 20min, and $121^{\circ}C$ for 10min) mixtures, detection limit was 0.1% level beef, pork and pork in beef and chicken in pork and 1.0% level pork in chicken. This study suggest that the developed multiplex PCR assay can be used for rapid and simultaneous species identification of cow, pig, chicken, duck, goat, sheep, horse and turkey from meats.

The objective of this study was to develop a stock that can be used to make a variety of dishes. For this, stock was prepared with beef, chicken, and pork meat as animal meats as well as anchovy, mushroom, and sea tangle as other ingredients. The qualities of six[only four though] kinds of stocks made with beef only (B), beef and chicken (BC), beef and pork (BP), and beef added with chicken and pork (BCP), and seven kinds of stocks made with anchovy (A), mushroom (M), sea tangle (S), anchovy and mushroom (AM), anchovy and sea tangle (AS), mushroom and sea tangle (MS), and anchovy added with mushroom and sea tangle (AMS) were investigated by sensory evaluation. The most preferred stock made with animal meat was mixed with the most preferred stock made with other ingredients at a 5% level to test the synergistic effects of palatability. As a result, BCP stock and AMS stock obtained the highest scores for overall preference. BCP stock within the range of 30%-65% along with the mixed stock containing AMS (35%-70%) showed synergistic effects for palatability.

Phytic acid, making up 1~5% of the composition of many plant seeds and cereals, is known to form iron-chelates and inhibit lipid peroxidation. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), as an indication of lipid peroxidation, were measured in beef round, chicken breast, pork loin, and halibut muscle after the meats were stored for 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 days at various temperatures [frozen (~2$0^{\circ}C$), refrigerator (4$^{\circ}C$), and room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$)]. Phytic acid effectively inhibited lipid peroxidation in beef round, chicken breast, halibut, and pork loin muscle (p<0.05). The inhibitory effect of phytic acid was dependent on concentration, storage time, and temperature. At frozen temperature, the inhibitory effect of phytic acid was minimal, whereas at room temperature, the inhibitory effect of phytic acid was maximal, probably due to the variation of the control TBARS values. At the concentration of 10 mM, phytic acid completely inhibited lipid peroxidation in all the muscle foods by maintaining TBARS values close to the level of the controls, regardless of storage time or temperature (p<0.05). The rate of lipid peroxidation was the highest in beef round muscle, although they had a close TBARS value at 0 day. Addition of phytic acid to lipid-containing foods such as meats, fish meal pastes, and canned seafoods may prevent lipid peroxidation, resulting in improvement of the sensory quality of many foods and prolonged shelf-life.

The present study attempted to obtain a basic data concerning the effect of $\pi$-water, a sort of physiological water, on the maintenance of chicken freshness. The meats were divided into three groups: the control, 20% - dilution, and 5% - dilution groups. In the experiment, the changes of the TBA-values of the meats started to appear on the 3rd day in the control group, and from the 4th day in the 20% - and 5% - dilution groups. The changes of pH didn't appear in the meats as the storage time passed. The number of general bacteria increased rapidly on the 3th day in the control, and on the 5th day in the 20% -, and 5% - dilution groups. As for the color, the meats turned greenish on the 5th day in the control, 7th, in 20% - dilution, and, l0th in the 5%-dilution groups. As for the order, the meats emitted the unpleasant order, such as that of ammonia, on the 3rd day in the control, 5th, in the 20% - dilution, and, 7th, in the 5ft-dilution group.

In this study, the effects of feeding citrus byproduct on physicochemical and sensory characteristics of chicken meats were investigated. The samples consisted of chicken meats provided with only feed for laying hen without citrus byproduct (T-0), and the chicken meats fed with 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% citrus byproduct during the starter (initial period feed; $1{\sim}9th$ day), the grower (middle period feed; $10{\sim}24th$ day), and the finisher (latter period feed; $25{\sim}36th$ day), respectively. The $L^*$ value of thigh was significantly lower in the T-1 than in the T-0, the $a^*$ value was significantly higher in the T-1 than in the T-0 (p<0.05). The water holding capacity of thigh was significantly higher in the T-1 than in the T-0 and the cooking loss was significantly higher in the T-0 than in the T-1 (p<0.05). The acid value was significantly higher in the T-0 than in the T-1 (p<0.05). Antioxidant activity was higher in the T1 than in the T-0 (p<0.05). There was no significance between T-0 and T-1 regardless of feeding citrus byproduct, in terms of chicken's $b^*$ value, frozen loss, thawing loss, hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, shear force, free amino acid content of hot water extracts, taste, flavor, tenderness, juiciness and palatability.

Lipid oxidation is one of the most important non-microbial causes of meat quality deterioration. However, there have been different/conflicting views concerning the primary catalysts of lipid oxidation in meat. This presentation provides brief overviews of lipid oxidation mechanism in general and catalysis of lipid oxidation in meat, and then focuses on inter-species differences in lipid oxidation potential, using results from our studies on meats (beef, pork and chicken) at retail and the respective meats of uniform postmortem history. The inter-species differences have highlighted the relative roles of meat pigment (myoglobin) content, catalase activity, and the concentration of oxidation substrates (particularly polyunsaturated fatty acids) in determining the lipid oxidation potential of raw meat versus cooked meat.

The poultry industry in Korean has expanded considerably during the last 15 years. While the number of chicken farms of commercial scale has decreased steadily during the period average farm size increased rapidly. Though the gross national product per capita increased 4.5 folds during ten years period, consumption of chicken meat, like other meats, recorded only 2 folds increase during the period. When domestic market for chicken meat had been open for two years on the basis of minimum market access quotas, importation remained at levels below the quota during the first one and half years. Nevertheless, during the last six months and thereafter, chicken meat importation recorded a steep increase, threatening the domestic industry. Poor productivities of the commercial chicken farms might be the main cause for the inferior competitiveness. For the sustainability of the industry some suggestions were made.
