Large amounts of additives are used during meat product processing to maintain product quality and shelf life. With the growing interest in healthy foods, natural plant-based additives are being used as alternatives to synthetic additives. In this study, six types of natural extracts with excellent antibacterial activity were selected, and their antibacterial and antioxidant activities against four types of pathogens were evaluated in various combinations. In addition, the pH, color, amount of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and growth of pathogenic microorganisms were analyzed during the storage of sausages treated with various combinations of these extracts. The natural extract mixtures exhibited different antibacterial activities, depending on the combination. Compared to grapefruit seed extract, a mixture of natural extracts extracted with ethanol (M4) reduced the Escherichia coli content by more than 99.9% after 8 days of storage and slowed the growth of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp. by more than 80% after 14 days. Compared to untreated (NC) and grapefruit extract (PC)-treated sausages, sausages treated with the natural extract mixtures showed a significant decrease in CIE L^* and an increase in CIE a^* and CIE b^* (p < 0.05). The pH value was significantly lower in sausages containing natural extract mixtures than in the NC and PC sausages (p < 0.05). The natural plant extract mixtures significantly prevented lipid oxidation (p < 0.05). In summary, different types of natural extract mixtures have a synergistic effect when used together, suggesting that natural preservatives can generally inhibit the growth of microorganisms and oxidation of processed meat.

We investigated the effects of various washing methods on the quality of semi-dried Pacific saury Cololabis saira, known in Korea as Guamegi. We immersed samples for 5 min in seawater, tap water, chlorinated water (100 mg/kg), ammonia water (100 mg/kg), citric acid (0.1 M), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA, 0.2 g/kg), or sesame oil (5 g/100 g), and then dried them in the sun for 3 days. The moisture and crude lipid contents after drying were 26.62-32.49 g/100 g and 26.40-33.01 g/100 g, respectively. The moisture content significantly decreased while the crude lipid content increased during drying. The different washing methods did not have a significant effect on the acidity, peroxide values, or levels of thiobarbituric acid or biogenic amine in Guamegi. The lightness of Guamegi during drying significantly decreased, but this decrease was not significantly different among washing methods. The degree of acceptance in a sensory evaluation was higher for Guamegi treated with sesame oil. Our results suggest that these washing methods should not be used to inhibit lipid oxidation, biogenic amine formation, or color changes in semi-dried Pacific saury, because effective components are extracted by the lipids during drying.

A total of 250 laying hens were fed a diet containing 0, 1, 2.5 or 5% conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and 5% Safflower seed oil (SSO) for 5 weeks, and eggs were collected by week to analyse lipid characteristics of egg yolk. Egg yolk from CLA-fed groups showed significant increase in CLA content with increased CLA in the diet. Dietary CLA also increased the ratio of saturated fatty acids and decreased unsaturated fatty acids in the egg yolk. The proportion of myristic, palmitic, stearic and CLA were increased, while those of oleic, linoleic, linolenic and arachidonic acid were decreased. The cholesterol content in egg yolk was significantly decreased by dietary CLA for 5 weeks feeding. After 7 days of feeding, 5% CLA-fed group showed the lowest cholesterol content in egg yolk. CLAfed groups showed significantly lower 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) values compared to control and SSO-fed group after 14 days of storage. No significant differences in TBARS values among CLA-fed groups were observed at the 28 days of storage. Results suggested that lipid oxidation of egg yolk during cold storage could be inhibited by dietary CLA due not only to changes in fatty acid composition but also to the high concentration of CLA in egg yolk.

Changes in lipid components of pollack meat during sun-drying and effects of NaCl on lipid oxidation were examined. TBA values and peroxide values of sun dried pollack(SD), salted and sun dried pollack (SS) were 0.142 and 14.8 meq/kg, 0.226 and 20.0 meq/kg after sun-drying, respectively. Raw pollack contained 6.12% total lipid consisted of 2.42% neutral lipid(NL) and 3.70% phospholipid(PL) as dry basis, and there were $47{\sim}65%$ decrease in PL content during sun-drying. The NL class of raw pollack mainly consisted of triglyceride(TG), sterol(ST)+diglyceride(DG), hydrocarbon(HC)+sterol ester(SE), and main components in PL class were phosphatidylcholine(PC), phosphatidylethanolamlne(PE) and phosphatidylserine(PS). The contents of TG, ST+DG, PC and PE decreased, while those of free fatty acid, HC+SE, sphingomyelin and lysophosphatidylcholine increased markedly during sun-drying. The major fatty acids of TL in raw pollack, PD and SD samples were generally 22:6, 16:0, 20:5, 18:1 and 18:3; 20:5 decreased markedly during sun-drying, while saturates and monoenes such as 16:0, 18:0 and 18:1 increased slightly. And remaining ratios of polyunsaturated fatty acids of TL, NL and PL in SD and SS samples were 81.1%, 92.5%. 73.3%, and 74.6%, 74.1%, 45.4%, respectively. The results of changes in lipid components during sun-drying showed that sodium chloride catalyzed the lipid oxidation of pollack meat during drying processing.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the relationship of antioxidant enzyme activity, lipid oxidation, and aroma pattern of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) beef for 8 d at $15^{\circ}C/RH$ 100% under 0% $O_2$/20% $CO_2/80%\;N_2$, 25% $O_2$/20% $CO_2/55%\;N_2$, 50% $O_2$/20% $CO_2/30%\;N_2$, and 75% $O_2$/20% $CO_2/5%\;N_2$-conditions. The reduction of $O_2$ and the induction of $CO_2$ were shown in the 25-75% $O_2$-groups during storage and total change rates of $O_2$ and $CO_2$ were followed in order: 25%>50%>75%. Catalase activity was not significantly different among all groups. During storage, glutathione peroxidase activity decreased by increasing the $O_2$ concentration and was followed at 8 d in order: 0%>25%>50%>75% (p<0.05). From 2 d of storage, TBARS content had significant (p<0.05) differences in order: 0%>25%>50%>75%. The CIE $L^*$ value was higher (p<0.05) in the 25-75% $O_2$-groups, compared with the 0% $O_2$-group. During the first time, the CIE $a^*$ value was higher (p<0.05) in order: 0%<25%<50%<75% but was lower (p<0.05) in the 25-75% $O_2$-groups from 2 d of storage than in the 0% $O_2$-group. The CIE $b^*$ value was higher (p<0.05) in the 25-75% $O_2$-groups than in the 0% $O_2$-group and had significant (p<0.05) differences at 0 and 8 d in order: 0%<25%<50%<75%. Aroma patterns with the electronic nose were clearly discriminated between the 0% $O_2$-groups and the 25-75% $O_2$-groups at 8 d of storage. Therefore, high oxygen reduced stabilities of antioxidant enzymes, lipid oxidation, and color in Hanwoo beef. Furthermore, antioxidant enzyme activities and lipid oxidation could affect aroma patterns.

This study investigated the effects of 3% ground fresh paprika (FP) and 5% freeze-dried paprika powder (FDP) on lipid oxidation inhibition and warmed-over flavor (WOF) development in cooked ground pork (CGP; meat:fat = 70:30), using two packaging methods (atmosphere packaging and vacuum packaging) during 8 days at $4^{\circ}C$ and 4 months at $-26^{\circ}C$. In the CGP containing FP with atmosphere packaging, at both $4^{\circ}C\;and\;-26^{\circ}C$, peroxide formation increased sharply, and was similar to that of the CGP without paprika. Peroxide formation, in both the CGP without paprika and with FP and packaged with vacuum packaging, repectively, was much lower than that found with atmosphere packaging. Vacuum packaging was superior to atmosphere packaging for lipid oxidation inhibition. In the CGP containing FP with vacuum packaging and stored at $-26^{\circ}C$, peroxide formation almost didn't occur, which was similar to the CGP containing FDP. The peroxide value and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value did not increase in the CGP containing FDP over the storage periods ($4^{\circ}C\;and\;-26^{\circ}C$) for both the atmosphere and vacuum packaging. Therefore, FDP was the most effective for lipid oxidation inhibition during refrigerated storage, regardless of the packaging method. Both FP and FDP with vacuum packaging during frozen storage showed similar antioxidant activities. The development of WOF in the CGP containing FDP with vacuum packaging was delayed until 7 days at $4^{\circ}C$ and 3 months at $-26^{\circ}C$, respectively. WOF was highly correlated with TBA value in the CGP stored at $-26^{\circ}C$ with vacuum packaging (r = 0.88, p<0.05). The oxidative stability of the lipid in the CGP containing FDP with vacuum packaging was excellent.

The influence of different storage temperature and packaging methods on plain dried anchovy were investigated. When plain dried large anchovy (DLA) was stored at $-20^{\circ}C, 5^{\circ}C and 2^{\circ}C$, the lipid oxidation was rapidly progressed with the increased temperature. When DLA was stored at $25^{\circ}C and 5^{\circ}C$, peroxide value (POV) reached to maximum on 4 days and 20 days, respectively, while POV increased progressively during storage at $-25^{\circ}C$. The degree of lipid oxidation was progressed the fastest in DLA packed in polyethylene film, followed by packing with oxygen absorber and packing in vacuum. The fatty acid composition of total lipid in DLA revealed $52.3{\%}$ in polyenes, $29.2{\%}$ in saturates and 1$8.5{\%}$ in monoenes, and the major fatty acids were 22 : 6, 20 : 5, 16 : 0, 16 : 1 and 18: 1. Saturates were increased with the rise of storage temperature and prolonging the storage period, while polyenes were decreased. The changes of fatty acid composition was retarded at lower temperature. And the changes of fatty acid composition were the lowest in DLA by vacuum packing, followed by packing with oxygen absorber and packed in polyethylene film. The contents of highly unsaturated fatty acid of polyenes were decreased remarkably in proportion to the progress of lipid oxidation, while saturates were increased.

Accumulation of peroxidized lipid, fed or injected in the body of rats was investigated and the effect of peroxidized lipid on the antioxidative system was studied also. Three groups each having six of Sprague-dawley rats were raised for 8 weeks. the peroxide value(POV) of diet fed to the control and the peroxidized group was 5.47 and 22.14meq/kg , respectively. Injected group was given the control diet and peroxidized linoleic acid(POV 31.81meq/kg) was injected into the peritoneal area three times a week. The POV, MDA, and protein carbonyl values of the peroxidized and the injected group (experimental groups) were significantly higher (p<0.05) than those of the control group. Cu, Zn-SOD and M-SOD activity of the experimentla groups increased 1.6 times that of control group at 4 th week. and decreased by 60% of their activityafter 8 weeks of feeding (p<0.05) . Catalase activity, glutathione and Vt, E contents of the experimental groups were significantly lower (p<0.05) than those of the control group during 8 weeks. The accumulation of peroxidcized lipid in liver were ovserved both in the fed or the injected group. The increased of enzyme activity of the experimental group during 4 weeks suggests ianadaptation of antioxidative system to get rid of the peroxidized lipid. Decrease of enzyme activity and glutathione observed as the peroxidized lipid lipid accumulation proceeded further, however, seems to indicate the oxdiative damage of enzyme and protein . Determination of the protein carbonyl content may be used as a method for measuring the oxidative damaging effect of peroxidized lipid.

The effect of cryoprotectants (maltodextrin+glycerol) and cryoprotectants+antioxidant [ascorbic acid and/or butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT)] mixtures on the survival, electrolyte leakage, and lipid degradation of freeze-dried Weissella paramesenteroides LC11 during storage was investigated and compared with that of the control (cells without additives) over a 90-day storage period at 4 or $20^{\circ}C$ in glass tubes with water activity ($a_w$) of 0.23. The survival, electrolyte leakage, and lipid degradation were evaluated through colony counts, electrical conductivity, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) content, respectively. The fatty acids composition was determined by gas chromatography, in both the total lipid extract and the polar lipid fraction, and compared with that of the control after the 90-day storage period. As the storage proceeded, increases in leakage value and TBARS content, as well as a decrease in viability, were observed. After 90 days of storage, the major fatty acids found in both the total lipid extract and the polar lipid fraction were palmitic (16:0), palmitoleic (16:1), stearic (18:0), oleic (18:1), linoleic (18:2), and linolenic (18:3) acids. The survival, leakage value, TBARS content and 18:2/16:0 or 18:3/16:0 ratio were the greatest for the protected strain held at $4^{\circ}C$. Cells with the cryoprotectants+BHT mixture showed the highest percentage of survival and 18:2/16:0 or 18:3/16:0 ratio in both lipid extracts, as well as the lowest leakage value and TBARS content after the 90-day storage period. Drying cells with the cryoprotectants+BHT mixture considerably slowed down polar lipid degradation and loss of membrane integrity, resulting in improved viability during storage.

Effects of tocopherols and $\beta$-carotene on the oxidation of the solid model system of a free fatty acid mixture (64.5% of linolic acid ; 26.4% of oleic acid ; 5.0% of palmitic acid) with tocopherols and $\beta$-carotene were studied. $\alpha$-tocopherol revealed an antioxidant activity at the concentration below 0.05%, however, it showed a prooxidant activity when the concentration was higher than 0.05%. The antioxidant activity of ${\gamma}$ -tocopherol was not affected by the concentrations in the range of 0.01~0.10% in the model and ${\gamma}$-tocopherol showed higher antioxidant activity than that of $\alpha$-tocopherol. It seemed that $\alpha$-tocopherol was unstable compared to ${\gamma}$-tocopherol during oxidation. $\beta$-carotene showed a weak antioxidative activity at the initial stage of this system while $\beta$-carotene showed a prooxidant activity in the presence of tocopherol. $\beta$ -carotene was highly susceptible to autoxidative degradation during oxidation.
