Objective: This study evaluated the effect of acid whey and freeze-dried cranberries on the physicochemical characteristics, lipid oxidation and fatty acid composition of nitrite-free fermented sausage made from deer meat and pork fat. Antioxidant interactions between acid whey and cranberry compounds were also explored. Methods: Four formulations of fermented venison sausage were prepared: F1 (control), F2 (with 5% liquid acid whey), F3 (with 0.06% of freeze-dried cranberries), and F4 (with 5% liquid acid whey and 0.06% of freeze-dried cranberries). Each sample was analyzed for pH, water activity ($a_w$), heme iron content, 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value and conjugated dienes at the end of the manufacturing process and at 30 and 90 days of refrigerated storage. Fatty acid composition was measured once at the end of the manufacturing process. Results: At the end of ripening, all samples presented statistically different values for a pH range of 4.47 to pH 4.59. The sum of the unsaturated fatty acids was higher, while the conjugated diene and the TBARS values were lower in sausages with freeze-dried cranberries as compared to the control sausage. The highest content of heme iron (21.52 mg/kg) at day 90 was found in the sausage formulation with the addition of freeze-dried cranberries, which suggests that the addition of cranberries stabilized the porphyrin ring of the heme molecule during storage and thereby reduced the release of iron. The use of liquid acid whey in combination with cranberries appears to not be justified in view of the oxidative stability of the obtained products. Conclusion: The results suggest that the application of freeze-dried cranberries can lower the intensity of oxidative changes during the storage of nitrite-free fermented sausage made

Objective: The influence of konjac gel level on fermentation process and product qualities were assessed to evaluate the feasibility of using it as fat analog in Northeastern Thai fermented sausage (Sai Krok E-san). Methods: Five treatments of fermented sausages were formulated by replacing pork backfat with 0%, 7.5%, 22.5%, and 30% konjac gel. The changes in lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and important physicochemical properties of samples were assessed during 3 days of fermentation. After the end of fermentation at day 3, water activity ($a_w$), instrumental texture, color, microbial counts, and sensory evaluation were compared. The best product formulation using konjac for replacing pork back fat were selected and used to compare proximate composition and energy value with control sample (30% pork backfat). Results: An increase in konjac gel resulted in higher values of LAB, total acidity, and proteolysis index with lower pH and lipid oxidation during 3 days of product fermentation (p<0.05). It was noted that larger weight loss and product shrinkage during fermentation was observed with higher levels of konjac gel (p<0.05). The resulting sausage at day 3 with 15% to 30% konjac gel exhibited higher hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, springiness, and chewiness than control (p<0.05). The external color of samples with 22.5% to 30% konjac gel were redder than others (p<0.05). Mold, Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli in all finished products were lower than detectable levels. Product with 15% konjac gel had the highest scores of sourness linking and overall acceptability (p<0.05). Conclusion: The product with 15% of konjac gel was the optimum formulation for replacing pork backfat. It had higher sensorial scores of sourness and overall acceptability than control with less negative impact on external appearance (product shrinkage) and weight loss. Moreover, it provided 46% fat reduction and 32% energy reduction than control.

In this study, we analyzed the antifungal activities of five essential oils (clove, rosemary, thyme, basil, and oregano) against three fungi (Penicillium oxalicum, Penicillium commune, and Cladosporium cladosporioides) isolated from farm-type fermented meat products Though their antifungal activities differed for each fungus, thyme had the greatest effect. Notably, C. cladosporioides showed the highest sensitivity to essential oils, and growth inhibitory effects were greater than for the other two strains. Additionally, ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP analysis confirmed that the five essential oils studied had antioxidant activity. ABTS analysis showed that clove (75%) and oregano (75%) oils had the highest antioxidant activities (both 93.7%). DPPH analysis showed that clove (75%) and rosemary (75%) oils had significantly greater antioxidant activities (both 93.8%) than thyme, basil, or oregano oils. FRAP results indicated that clove and basil oils were the strongest reductants. Comprehensive comparative analysis indicated that clove oil had more antioxidant activity than the other four essential oils. Overall, the study shows that the excellent antifungal properties of clove oil could be harnessed to produce safe fermented meat products by preventing rancidity and mold contamination.

The current study investigated the effects of the most suitable modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory properties of fermented dry sausages during 45 days of refrigeration (4℃) storage period. Treatments were vacuum-packed (control), 25% CO₂/75% N₂ (MAP1), 50% CO₂/50% N₂ (MAP2), 70% CO₂/30% N₂ (MAP3), and 100% CO₂ (MAP4). All MAP samples regardless of their CO₂ composition significantly (p<0.05) decreased in pH, a_w, total plate count, and lactic acid bacteria count values as compared to the vacuum-package during storage. The Enterobacteriaceae count in all MAP packaging was significantly (p<0.05) lower than the vacuum-packed samples and counts in MAP3 and MAP4 samples were markedly (p<0.05) lower than all other treatments in prolonged storage of 15 and 45 days. Based on the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance content at day 15 and 30 storage time, treatments are ranked as follows: Vacuum-packed>MAP1>MAP2>MAP3>MAP4. The a^* of MAP4 was higher than all other treatments. In the final storage days, no variation was exhibited (p>0.05) among treatments in lactic acid aroma and sourness, and MAP2 samples had the lowest (p<0.05) overall acceptability. The use of MAPs with an increase in the CO₂ from MAP1 to MAP4 samples can help in better microbial inhibition than vacuum package, and 70% CO₂/30% N₂ (MAP3) and 100% CO₂ (MAP4) were effective to maintain several quality parameters (a_w, pH, microbial inhibition, stability against lipid oxidation, and instrumental color traits) and extend the shelf life of dry fermented sausage.

The present study was carried out to develop sausage using Leuconostoc citreum which was isolated from Kimchi. Leuconostoc citreum was added to sausage at three concentrations of 1, 3 and $5\%$, and was stored at $10^{\circ}C$ for 40 days. The pH of the sausage containing Leuconostoc citreum was similar to the control group. The TBA value of the group containing Leuconostoc citreum was lower than the control group. However, the TBA value of the control group steadily increased after 10 days of storage, and there were only minor changes in the groups containing Leuconsostoc citreum. In addition, the TBA value of the sausages employed for the present study was either 0.46MA mg/kg or less than that over the entire period of storage. The residual nitrite value was 47.1 ppm at the beginning of the storage in the control group and was 32.5, 32.2 and 30.9 ppm in the groups containing Leuconostoc citreum. The sausages with TBA values higher than 70 ppm are not permitted in Korea. With regards totexture characteristics, it was observed the hardness was lower in the groups containing Leuconostoc ctireum than in the control group while springiness was almost the same in both the groups, but the group containing $1\%$ Leuconostoc citreum showed the best springiness. Both gumminess and brittleness were lower in the groups containing Leuconostoc citreumthan than in the control group. It was inferred that with an increase in the concentration of Leuconostoc citreum there was a decrease in the value of gumminess and brittleness. The results of the sensory evaluation were generally better in the groups containing Leuconostoc citreum than the control group. The sausage containing $3\%$ Leuconostoc citreum obtained the most excellent scores.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are added to different food products for a long time due to health beneficial effects on human host. LAB is applied in dairy products, such as yoghurt, cheese, and various fermented products, and also in non-dairy products, such as sausages. However, reaching the human gut alive as well as in a sufficient cell amount to exert positive health effects is still a big challenge, due to LAB sensitive character and vulnerability against harsh and detrimental conditions in human digestive system. Keeping physiological activity of sensitive LAB strains alive is for the formulation of novel food products with a probiotic health claim of utmost interest, thus microencapsulation has been applied and investigated as a promising technique for a good and reliable protection. Microencapsulation allows reduced cell injury or cell loss by retaining cells within the encapsulating membrane and can be enforced by spray-drying, emulsion, extrusion, and a range of other technologies in combination with an appropriate coating material, such as alginate, chitosan, and mixture of these two polymers. In this review, established and well-studied microencapsulation techniques with their favored coating materials, as well as the recent applications of microencapsulated LAB into dairy products will be discussed.

발효 소세지의 제조 중 staphylococcal enterotoxin A의 생성에 미치는 첨가제(Glucono delta Lactone, starter culture 및 NaCl)의 효과를 조사하기 위하여 본 실험을 실시하였다. GdL의 첨가량은 높아짐에 따라(0, 0.25, 0.50 및 0.75%) 현저히 enterotoxin 생성량은 줄어들었다(p<0.01). Starter culture(L. plantarum)는 $10^6\;cells/g$수준으로 접종되어 졌는데 0.5% GdL이 첨가되지 않았을 때 starter culture 처리구와 무처리구에서 40 ng/10g과 80 ng/10g을, 그리고 0.5% GdL 첨가되었을 때 starter culture 처리구와 무처리구에서는 최대 50 ng/10g과 30 ng/10g를 생성하여 starter culture의 enterotoxin 생성억제 효과를 보였다. 또한, NaCl은 2.7%와 1.7% 처리구에서 2.7% NaCl 처리가 오히려 더 많은 enterotoxin을 생성 하였다.
