This study was conducted to investigate the effects of herbs (dill weed, fennel seed and rosemary) on color stability and lipid oxidation of ground pork patties during storage at $2^{\circ}C$ and $-20^{\circ}C$. Lipid oxidation was determined by the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) method. Fennel seed was identified as being the most effective ingredient in terms of meat redness (Hunter a-values) during storage at $2^{\circ}C$ (p<0.05). Patties treated with rosemary had lower Hunter a-values than control, and dill weed was the least beneficial in influencing meat redness, having significantly lower a-values than control patties. During frozen storage at $-20^{\circ}C$, no significant differences in a-values were observed between the control patties and those treated with fennel seed. Patties treated with rosemary had lower a-values than control and patties with dill weed had negative a-values throughout storage. The cooking process increased Hunter L-values and decreased a-values in all patty samples. TBARS values increased during storage. Rosemary displayed excellent antioxidative activity as evidenced by the completely inhibition of TBARS formation of cooked pork patties. Dill weed and fennel seed also exerted an intermediate but significant antioxidant effect during storage (p<0.05).

In the previous work(Kim et al, 1973), the quality of sun-dried Alaska pollack, Theragra chalch-ogramma, was discussed in the aspect of non-enzymatic discoloration as a function of relative humidity during storage at room temperature($20^{\circ}C$). In this paper, sun-dried squid, Ommastrephes steam pacificus was investigated at the same aspect mentioned above. Fresh squid from the whole sale market was dressed, filleted, dried for 48 hours in the open air and finally stored in the humidistat chamber. Lipid oxidation ana development of non-enzymatic browning were tested by the same methods described in the previous paper. The TBA value showed a maximum peak on 30 day storage, hereafter tended to decrease gradually. The rate of browning, however, in water soluble fraction as well as in chloroform-methanol fraction was lower at 0.34 to 0.45 water activity than at any other case, and propagation of lipid oxidation was also diminished at the above level of water activity. From the results, it is recognized that storage at Aw=0.34 to 0.45 provides higher quality stability for sun-dried squid.

Cacao bean husk (Theobroma cacao L.) contains a high level of dietary fiber and therefore can be used as raw material in food processing. The objective of the present study was to measure the physicochemical properties and sensory traits of emulsion-type pork sausages with various levels of cacao bean husk powder (0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, and 2%). The moisture content in cooked sausages increased as the level of cacao bean husk power increased, whereas the protein content decreased (p<0.05). With respect to color, as the level of cacao bean husk power increased, there was a decrease in lightness and yellowness, but there was a considerable increase in redness (p<0.05). Cacao bean husk powder exhibited a positive effect on emulsion stability and apparent viscosity. In the sensory evaluation, increased level of cacao bean husk increased flavor acceptability; the 0.75% and 1% treatment groups showed significantly high overall acceptability (p<0.05). The thiobarbituric acid reactive species content of cooked sausages indicated that with the addition of cacao bean husk powder significantly inhibited lipid oxidation in the sausages during refrigerated storage (p<0.05). Overall, the findings of the present study suggest that adding 0.75% and 1% cacao bean husk powder as a natural ingredient in sausages can help develop meat products with excellent qualities.

This study was conducted to compare the microbial and physico-chemical quality characteristics in Kimchi-fermented sausages added with sodium nitrite (SN) and green tea extract (GTE). The sausages were fermented at $24^{\circ}C$/RH 89% for 17 hr and then dried at $10^{\circ}C$/RH 70~80% for 9 days. The total bacteria count, lactic acid bacteria count and pH value ranged from 8.7 Log CFU/g sausage, 8.1~8.3 Log CFU/g sausage and 4.35~4.36, respectively, at 9 d of ripening, but did not show significant differences during ripening among all sausages. The lipid oxidation (TBARS) was inhibited by both GTE and SN, but GTE had lower (p<0.05) inhibitory effect, compared with SN. The $b^*$ value of GTE-added sausage was higher than that of the control sausage, but $a^*$ and $b^*$ values of SN-added sausage remained higher than other sausages during ripening. Therefore, it had lower effect on lipid oxidation and color stabilities than SN while GTE improved the lipid oxidation stability in Kimchi-fermented sausage. However, both GTE and SN did not influence the growth of lactic acid bacteria.

The effects of dietary supplementation of processed sulfur in pigs according to the level provided during the fattening phase were examined. The pigs were divided into three groups: control (CON), non-sulfur fed pigs; T1, 0.1% processed sulfur fed pigs; T2, 0.3% processed sulfur fed pigs. Physicochemical and sensory properties, as well as meat quality and oxidative stability of the Longissimus dorsi muscle were investigated. The feeding of processed sulfur did not affect moisture and protein contents (p>0.05). However, the crude fat content of T2 was significantly decreased compared to CON (p<0.05), while the pH value of T2 was significantly higher than those of both CON and T1 (p<0.05). Cooking loss and expressible drip of T2 were also significantly lower than that of CON (p<0.05). The redness of meat from T1 was significantly higher than both CON and T2 (p<0.01). During storage, lipid oxidation of the meat from sulfur fed pigs (T1 and T2) was inhibited compared to CON. Examination of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids revealed T2 to have significantly higher content than CON (p<0.05). In the sensory test, the juiciness and overall acceptability of T2 recorded higher scores than CON. This study demonstrated that meat from 0.3% processed sulfur fed pigs had improved nutrition and quality, with extended shelf-life.

Lairage, a part of the animal welfare practices, has been known to mitigate pre-slaughter stress in animals. However, research investigating the relationship between lairage and pork meat quality remains scarce. In this study, we conducted a comparative analysis of the physicochemical quality and storage stability of pork from pigs subjected to immediate slaughter (CON) and those provided with a 24 h lairage before slaughter (LRG) over a 7-day storage period. The loins from 20 castrated pigs in each group, respectively, were collected at 1, 3, 5, and 7 days and used for analysis of meat quality and storage stability, including pH, meat color, moisture, water holding capacity, drip loss, cooking loss, shear force, fatty acid composition, lipid oxidation, antioxidant activity, and electrical resistance. Overall, there were no significant differences in physicochemical meat quality parameters between CON and LRG groups. Similarly, no differences were observed in the storage stability of pork including 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity and electrical resistance. However, the proportion of unsaturated fatty acids was significantly higher in LRG compared to CON. In conclusion, 24 h lairage for castrated pigs had limited impact on meat quality and storage stability but led to an increase in the unsaturated fatty acid proportion.

The study assessed the stability for fresh beef patties with the inclusion of clove extract (CE) as a natural antioxidant in comparison to butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and ascorbic acid (AA) at frozen storage. Four different patties were made dependent on the added antioxidants: control (added no antioxidants), added with 0.02% BHT, 0.05% AA, and 0.1% CE. Inclusion of BHT, AA, and CE resulted in a significant reduction of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and hue angle (h°) value and increase of redness (CIE a*) and chroma (C*) values (p<0.05). BHT, AA, and CE were observed effectively to retard lipid oxidation and increase color stability. BHT and AA revealed significantly (p<0.05) higher thiol content than the control and CE. However, the reduction percentage for thiol content in CE treated patties was lower than the control and AA-treated patties from first to last time of storage. Moreover, inclusion of AA and CE led to significantly (p<0.05) increased heme iron content when compared to BHT and the control. In conclusion, CE can replace the application of AA and BHT while improving lipid stability, heme iron content, and color stableness of fresh beef patties throughout frozen storage.

Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) is a lipid carrier in mammals including humans that consists mainly of polar lipids, like phospholipids and glycolipids. In this study, a process to enrich polar lipids in commercial butter and whey powder, including polar lipids of MFGM, was developed. WPC (whey protein concentrate) 60 was selected as the most suitable raw material based on the yield, phospholipid, protein, and lactose content of the polar lipid fraction obtained by ethanol extraction of two WPC (WPC60 and WPC70) and two buttermilk (A and B). After fractionation under optimum conditions, the polar-lipid enriched fraction from WPC60 contained 38.56% phospholipids. The content of glycolipids, cerebroside, lactosylceramide, ganglioside GM3, ganglioside GD3, was 0.97%, 0.55%, 0.09%, and 0.14%, respectively. Rancimat results showed that the oxidation stability of fish oil increased with an increase in the polar-lipid fraction by more than 30 times. In addition, the secretion of IL-6 and TNF-α decreased in a concentration-dependent manner after treatment of RAW 264.7 cells with 0.1 to 100 ppm of the polar lipid fraction. In this study, polar lipid concentrates with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, were prepared from milk processing by-products. The MFGM polar lipid concentrates made from by-products are not only additives for infants, but are also likely to be used as antioxidants in cooking oils and as active ingredients for functional foods.

To confirm the food quality and storage stability of commercial Korean kamaboko, we experimented with the composition and textural properties using various surimis and kamaboko products. We also investigated changes in protein digestibility and lipid oxidation of vacuum packed products under chilled storage at $4{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. Among the fish meatbased surimi, vegetable mixed surimi had the lowest protein content (23.73 %), as compared to other surimi (51.9-73.6%). Siginificant (P<0.05) differences in protein, lipid content and degree of fat oxidation were noted between the fried kamaboko products of three companies. Adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness and resilience were similar in all samples, but there were notable differences in hardness and fractuability between samples. In vitro protein digestibility and trypsin indigestible substrate (TIS) were not inversely proportional in fried kamaboko products. The protein digestibility (80.30%) of steamed vegetable mixed fried kamaboko was lower than that of other fried samples (84.9-86.2%). Computed protein efficiency ratio (C-PER) of companies A and C's fried kamaboko was 2.6 but company B's was 1.9. There was no noticeable change in thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs) or protein digestibility for any of the vacuum packed fried kamaboko during 30 days of chilled storage.
