The objective of this study was to determine storage stability and antioxidant effect of T1, ascorbic acid (0.6%); T2, ethanol extracts of Bacillus polyfermenticus (5%); T3, mixture with ascorbic acid (0.3%), and ethanol extracts of B. polyfermenticus (2.5%) during the storage period. The pH of sausage decreased constantly during storage (p<0.05). Thiobarbituric acid reaction substance (TBA) values were lower in all treated samples compared to the control (p<0.05). Longer storage periods resulted in higher TBA values (p<0.05). Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) value in T1, T2, and T3 were significantly lower than control (p<0.05). The $L^*$ value of T1, T2, and T3 had higher than control. The $a^*$ value of T2 was significantly lower than control, T1, and T3 during storage period (p<0.05). The $b^*$ value of T2 had significantly higher compared to the other sausage samples during storage period (p<0.05). Total microbial counts in the sausages samples significantly increased as storage period increased (p<0.05). Further studies are needed to develop various meat products to extend the storage stability using B. polyfermenticus SCD.

The packaging effect on physicochemical changes in irradiated sausage stored at -2$0^{\circ}C$ was studied. Emulsion-type cooked pork sausage was made with (156 ppm) or without NaNO$_2$ (0 ppm), and packaged in three different conditions such as aerobic, vacuum and $CO_2$ (100%). The samples irradiated at 0, 5 and 10 kGy absorbed dose, and the total number of microorganisms, lipid oxidation, color and texture were analyzed during frozen storage at-2$0^{\circ}C$. Irradiation of the sausage at 10 kGy completely controlled microbial growth during storage. An NaNO$_2$ addition to the sausage significantly reduced lipid oxidation, and the TBARS value of the sausage with aerobic packaging was higher than that with the vacuum and $CO_2$ packaging. The NaNO$_2$ addition increased Hunter color a-value dramatically, but no packaging effect was found (p > 0.05). Irradiation influenced shear values resulting in lower shear values in 10 kGy-irradiated sausages with aerobic packaging, and $CO_2$ packaged sausage showed comparatively lower shear value than other packaging methods. From the results, vacuum or $CO_2$ (100%) packaging were better than aerobic packaging for frozen stored pork sausage, especially far microbial quality and lipid oxidation.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of duck and pork meat mixing ratio on quality characteristics of emulsion type sausage at $4^{\circ}C$ during 5 weeks. Treatments on the basis of the meat content were subjected to 100% duck meat (T1), 100% pork meat (T2), 50% duck meat + 50% pork meat (T3), 40% duck meat + 60% pork meat (T4), and 30% duck meat + 70% pork meat (T5). The moisture content was significantly (p<0.05) higher in TI sample but significantly (p<0.05) lower in T2 sample than those in comparison to the other treatments. Crude protein and fat content were significantly (p<0.05) higher in T2 sample compared to the other treatments. CIE $L^*$value was significantly (p<0.05) lower in T1 sample than those of other treatments until 5 weeks of cold storage. CIE $a^*$value was significantly (p<0.05) higher in T1 sample but significantly (p<0.05) lower in T2 sample than those in comparison to the other treatments until 5 weeks of cold storage. Hardness was significantly (p<0.05) higher in T4 sample compared to the other treatments during all cold storage. Cohesiveness was significantly (p<0.05) higher in T5 sample compared to the other treatments until 2 weeks of cold storage. The results of sensory evaluation showed that the meat flavor, taste and texture were significantly (p<0.05) lower in T5 sample compared to the other treatments whereas no difference among treatments except T5 sample. Overall acceptability was significantly (p<0.05) lower in T5 sample compared to the other treatments. Therefore, these results suggested that the ratio of 40% duck meat and 60% pork meat is appropriate levels for hardness and palatability when manufacturing emulsion type sausage with duck meat.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of addition of green tea extract material with or without nitrite (0.02 g) on the quality characteristics and reduced nitrite content of emulsion-type sausages during 4 weeks of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The treatments were; non-added nitrite and green tea extract (0, added nitrite and non-added green tea extract (T1), added nitrite and 0.2% green tea extract (T2), added nitrite and 0.5% green tea extract (T3), and added nitrite and 1% green tea extract (T4). The lightness $(L^*)$ of sausage containing nitrite and green tea extract together were significantly lower than control and T1 (p<0.05). The redness $(a^*)$ of sausage containing only nitrite (T1) and, nitrite and green tea extract at 1% (T4) were significantly higher than control (p<0.05). The total expressible fluid (%) of sausage containing nitrite and green tea extract were significantly lower than control (p<0.05). Cohesiveness of sausage containing green tea extract were significantly lower than control (p<0.05) at 2 and 4 weeks storage period. Addition of nitrite and green tea extract decreased the TBARS values (p<0.05). It was also found that natural extract (green tea) treatments decreased TBARS formation more than only added nitrite (Tl) (p<0.05). The changes of total plate count and coliform plate count were increased during storage time. The total plate count of T1 was higher at 4 weeks of storage period, while the coliform plate count was higher in control at 2 and 4 weeks of storage period compare to other treatments. The residual nitrite content was decreased during storage time in all treatment except control and the effectiveness of decreasing ability was higher with increasing green tea extract.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the sausage containing mulberry leaf(0.04%, 0.08%) and persimmon leaf powder(0.04%, 0.08%) on lipid oxidation(Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances, TBARS), nitrite, volatile basic nitrogen(VBN) and fatty acid composition. The TBARS values of sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder were not significantly different(p > 0.05) as compared to control during 45 days of storage, but TBARS values of sausage containing 0.04% mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder were significantly lower than those of control at 60 days of storage. The nitrite scavenging ability of sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder was higher than that of control. The VBN content of all treatments significantly increased(p < 0.05) during the storage periods. In fatty acid compositions, the percentages of PUFA/SFA of sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder were significantly higher as compared to control. In conclusion, sausage containing mulberry leaf and persimmon leaf powder was a more effective natural resource on the basis of the lipid oxidation and nitrite scavenging ability of sausage.

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.

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.
