Effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on physico-chemical properties of cooked ground pork patty were investigated for 11 days at $4^{\circ}C$. Pork patties containing 0, 1, 2, and 3% CLA were cooked at $90^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The contents of crude protein and fat did not change whereas the content of ash and water decreased as the level of CLA enhanced. Lipid oxidation as measured by thiobarbituric reactive substances of patty was inhibited by addition of CLA. CLA treatment also reduced nitrite and cholesterol content and changed fatty acid composition. Consequently, given these positive effects of CLA, it may be assumed that CLA could be used as a fat additive for value-added pork patty.

Antimicrobial activity of Caesalpina sappan L. extract (CS extract) against 6 kinds of food spoilage and pathogenic organisms was studied. The growth of Listeria monocytogenes Brie 1, Escherichis coli ATCC 11775, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 11775, and Pseudomonas fluorescens ATCC 11775 was inhibited about 4 to 5 $log_{10}$ cycle in Tryptic soy Broth(TSB) containing 1% CS extract. Bacillus subtilis KCTC 102 and Vibrio parahaemolyticus ACTT 17802 did not show apparent growth in the same medium. Effect of CS extract on preservation of ground meat was also investigated. The range of pH change was 5.0~5.2 in CS extract added ground meat, 5.2~6.0 in CS extract not added ground meat (control) during storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. Number of total bacteria after 15 days storage was $10^{6}$/g in CS extract added ground meat, 10$^3$/g in control. Redness of ground meats was improved significantly by addition of 1% CS extract during storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 30 days. The sensory quality of 1% CS extract added hamburger patty was similar to that of the control in taste, flavor, and overall acceptability.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of microwave power level on cooking properties of ground pork patties (fat level: 20%). Each patty was cooked from a thawed state to $76.7^{\circ}C$ (center temperature) in a microwave oven with power levels of 40% (360 W), 60% (540 W), 80% (720 W), and 100% (full power, 900 W), respectively. Cooking rate increased with power level, and the non-uniformity also increased with time during cooking. Overheating at the edge of the patties was observed for all power levels, and maximum temperature differences in between the edge position and center position were found in patties cooked at the 900 W power level. Compositional properties, total cooking loss, and drip loss were not affected by power level, although moisture content was lower at the edge than at the center position. As the power level increased, the reduction in patty diameter of cooked patties increased while the reduction in patty thickness decreased. Pork patties cooked at lower power levels (360 W and 540 W) had higher shear force values than those cooked at higher power levels (720 W and 900 W). Few changes were observed in instrumental color values.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of different reheating methods on the quality characteristics of precooked ground pork patties with different combinations of salt (1, 2%) and phosphate (0, 0.3%). The cooking and reheating methods used were the electric grill and the microwave oven. The cooking method and the addition of phosphate had detectable effects on the quality characteristics of ground pork patties. The reheating rate by microwave oven was faster than by electric grill, and decreased with increases in salt and the addition of phosphate. Cooking loss and reduction in patty diameter after reheating by microwave oven were higher than by electric grill, and these values decreased with increasing of salt/phosphate levels. The pH of patties with added phosphate was significantly higher than patties without phosphate, and no significant difference in pH was observed among patties reheated by each method. The patties reheated by electric grill had higher moisture contents than those reheated by electric grill, and the addition of phosphate resulted in higher moisture contents. The hardness of patties reheated by electric grill was lower than patties reheated by microwave oven, and the addition of phosphate increased the hardness with both reheating methods.

Time-temperature integrators (TTIs) are simple and cost-efficient tools which may be used to predict food quality. Enzymatic TTIs are devised to indicate food quality in the form of color alterations from green to red, based on the cumulative impacts of temperature and time period on the enzymatic reactions. In this study, the quality of ground beef patties was investigated for the parameters of pH levels, color, VBN, water holding capacity, and total microbial counts, depending on various storage temperatures (5, 15, and $25^{\circ}C$). TTIs were attached to the surface of the ground beef patties in order to evaluate the degree of correlating colorimetric changes with the determined quality parameters. Through the Arrhenius equation, activation energy and constant reaction rates of TTI, VBN, and total microbial counts were calculated as to observe the relationship between enzymatic reactions of the TTI and food spoilage reactions of the ground beef patties. VBN and total microbial counts were already increased to reach decomposition index (VBN: 20, total microbial count: 7-8 Log CFU/g) of meat at middle stage of storage period for each storage temperature. Although activation energy of TTI enzymatic reactions and food spoilage reactions of the ground beef patties were similar, the change of TTI color was not a coincidence for food spoilage at $5^{\circ}C$ and $15^{\circ}C$ of storage temperature. It was suggested that TTI should be designed individually for storage temperature, time, type of meat, or decomposition index of meat.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of fat level on the microwave cooking properties of ground pork patties with NaCl (1.5%). Ground pork patties were processed from pork hams to achieve fat levels of 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%, respectively. Each patty was cooked from a thawed state to 75℃ in a microwave oven at full power (700 W). After microwave cooking, protein content, moisture content, fat retention, and shear force values in patties decreased as fat level increased from 10 to 25%. As fat level increased, cooking time decreased but total cooking loss and drip loss were increased, whereas slight differences in diameter reduction and thickness of patties were observed. In raw patties, 10% fat patties had lower L* values and higher a* values compared to patties with more fat, but these differences were reduced when patties were cooked. Patties with 10% fat showed a more pink color on the surface and interior than patties with a higher fat content but more air pockets were noted in higher-fat patties. Higher-fat patties were more tender, juicy, and oily than lower-fat patties.

This study examined the effects of cooking temperature and onion (Allium cepa L.) tissue concentrate on heterocyclic amine (HCA) formation in fried ground beef patties. Various amounts of onion tissue (2.0, 5.0, and 10.0%, w/w) were added to the ground beef patties, which were then fried at two different temperatures (190 and $225^{\circ}C$) for 10 min/side. The ground beef patties fried at $190^{\circ}C$ and containing 10.0% (w/w) onion showed a 51% decrease in mutagenicity, and formation of 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx) and 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]-pyridine (PhIP) was reduced by 58% and 63%, respectively. For the patties fried at $225^{\circ}C$, total mutagenicity decreased by 35% and 48% with the additions of 5.0 and 10.0% (w/w) onion, respectively, and PhIP formation was reduced 50, 60, and 71% with the additions of 2.0, 5.0, and 10.0% (w/w) onion, respectively.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of binding agents (carrageenan, transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber) on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of pork patties. One percent of each pork patty formulation was prepared with one of the following carrageenan, transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, or wheat fiber. The lightness and redness values of raw and cooked pork patties with carrageenan, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05). The water holding capacity, cooking yield, and moisture content of pork patties containing carrageenan, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05). However, the reduction in diameter and thickness was lower than the control (p<0.05). The protein and fat content of the pork patties were not significantly different between the control and patties with binding agent addition. The shear forces of the pork patties with transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05), while the pork patties with carrageenan were significantly lower than control (p<0.05). Among the sensory characteristics, tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability of pork patties containing carrageenan, transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were slightly higher, although there was no significant difference. Therefore, pork patties containing binding agents are useful in making new ground meat products with desirable quality characteristics.

The present study investigated the combined effects of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and organic acid salts on the quality and shelf-life of Hanwoo ground beef patties. The ground beef containing 500 ppm of ascorbic acid was prepared with air-packaging (Air-P), high oxygen-MAP (70% $O_2$+30% $CO_2$/OxyMAP), and nitrogen-MAP (100% $N_2$/NitroMAP), in combination with organic acid salts (1500 ppm of sodium acetate and 500 ppm of calcium lactate). The samples were stored for 11 d at $5^{\circ}C$. The pH value of ground beef patties decreased during storage in all the treatments. The ground beef patties with organic acid salts showed relatively higher level of pH during storage compared with non-added patties (p<0.05). Lipid oxidation was accelerated in OxyMAP while it was delayed in NitroMAP treated with organic acid salts. Nitro-MAP treated with organic acid salts was effective in stabilizing the color characteristics of lightness (CIE $L^*$) and redness (CIE $a^*$) during storage. Oxygen content in MAP was shown to be a more important factor affecting color stability and lipid oxidation of ground beef than organic acid salts. The aerobic and anaerobic bacterial counts were reduced both in OxyMAP and NitroMAP (p<0.05), and the lactic acid bacteria was inhibited by Oxy-MAP (p<0.05). Coliform bacteria decreased during storage as pH value was decreased in all treatments. According to the sensory evaluation, the ground beef patties in NitroMAP showed the best quality among all treatments during storage. Therefore, Hanwoo ground beef patties added with sodium acetate and calcium lactate and packed with NitroMAP showed better quality characteristics than other treatments. This packaging method is recommended and could be utilized for packaging hanwoo ground beef patties for improving quality and extending shelf-life.
