Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate quality characteristics of reduced-salt, low-fat pork sausage (PS) using pre-rigor muscle and sea tangle extract (STE) to reduce salt level of sausages during refrigerated storage. Methods: Pork ham was prepared with pre-rigor and post-rigor muscle from the local market. Sausages using post-rigor muscle were manufactured with the 1.5% of salt content, and samples with pre-rigor muscle were processed by different salt concentrations (0.8%). Accordingly, PSs were prepared in 4 treatments (REF, PS with 1.5% of salt using post-rigor muscle; CTL, PS with 0.8% of salt using pre-rigor muscle; TRT1, PS with 0.8% of salt and 5% of STE using pre-rigor muscle; TRT2, PS with 0.8% of salt and 10% of STE using pre-rigor muscle). For the evaluation of quality characteristics and shelf-life of reduced-salt PS, pH and color values, cooking loss (%), expressible moisture (%), textural properties, lipid oxidation (thiobarbituric reactive substances), protein denaturation (volatile basic nitrogen), and microbiological analysis (total plate counts and Enterobacteriaceae counts) were determined. Results: The pH and temperature of pre-rigor raw pork ham were higher than those of post-rigor pork ham. Hardness of TRT2 was higher than that of REF or CTL. TRT2 had higher gumminess and chewiness than CTL. TRT1 and TRT2 had lower volatile basic nitrogen than CTL. Total plate counts of TRT2 were lower than those of CTL. Expressible moisture values of TRT1 and TRT2 were similar to those of REF. The addition of STE into PS improved functional properties and shelf-life of PS. Conclusion: Reduced-salt PS containing pre-rigor muscle and STE had similar functional properties to those of regular-salt ones, while containing approximately 47% less salt compared to regular-salt level.

Objective: This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of pork sausage (PS) with sea tangle extract (STE) and rapid chilled pre-rigor muscle (RCPM) for the development of reduced-salt low-fat sausage. Methods: Pre- and post-rigor pork ham muscles were prepared to process PSs. Positive control (reference, REF) using post-rigor muscle were manufactured at a regular-salt level of 1.5%. Fresh and rapid-chilled pre-rigor muscle (FPM and RCPM) were used to manufacture reduced-salt sausages with 0.8% salt. Reduced-salt PSs were prepared with four treatments: FT1 (FPM alone), FT2 (FPM with 5% STE), RT1 (RCPM alone), and RT2 (RCPM with 5% STE). The physicochemical and textural properties of the sausages with reduced-salt levels and RCPM combination were measured to determine if the characteristics of RCPM were similar to those with FPM. Results: The pH values of PS with FPM and RCPM were higher than those of REF with post-rigor muscle. Color values (L^*, a^*, b^*) were not affected by different rigor-states and salt addition level. Textural properties of reduced-salt PSs were similar to those of REF due to the improved functionalities of pre-rigor muscle. RT2 had lower expressible moisture (%) than other treatments with post-rigor muscle and RCPM except for RT1. Conclusion: The addition of STE and RCPM to reduced-salt PS increased the water-holding capacity, which was lower than those of PS with STE using RCPM but similar to those of regular-salt sausage.

본 연구는 기존의 유화형 소시지와 유사한 조직적인 성상을 갖는 저지방 세절 소시지를 제조를 위한 지방대체제를 단일 및 혼합 사용하여 첨가하고 그 적정량을 구하기 위하여 이화학적 검사, 기능성 및 물성검사를 실시하였다. 저지방 세절 소시지는 3% 미만의 지방과 77-79%의 수분 및 약 13-15%의 단백질을 가진 반면에 기존의 유화형 대조구는 19.4%의 지방과 62.5%의 수분 및 11.9%의 단백질을 함유함으로써 지방함량을 최소화하는 대신 수분과 단백질의 함량이 증가하였다. konjac flour(KF)는 단독 혹은 다른 지방대체제와 복합으로 첨가시 보수력이 좋았고 지방대체제 첨가에 의한 가열수율을 높일 수 있었다. Carrageenan(CN)은 보수력이 낮은 결점이 있으나 다른 친수성 콜로이드보다 겔 강도가 높아 경도를 증가시킴으로서 보수력이 높은 KF와 CN의 복합 지방대체제의 첨가는 상호보완적임을 알 수 있었다. 대두단백질을 첨가한 처리구는 원래 대두단백질 분말의 황색에 영향을 받아 황색도(Hunter b value)가 높았고 조직검사에서는 저지방 세절 소시지가 지방대체제의 첨가에 상관없이 기존의 유화형 소시지에 비하여 높은 경도를 보였으나, KF와 CN을 지방대체제로 첨가하고 대두단백질(1.5%)을 식육단백질(6%)과 대체하였을 때 기존의 유화형 소시지와 검성, 저작성 및 응집성이 유사한 조직감을 보였다. 결론적으로 KF와 CN 및 대두단백질의 복합지방대체제의 첨가가 단일 지방대체제에 비하여 저지방 소시지의 보수력 및 가열수율 등의 기능성을 높일 수 있었고 기존의 유화형 소시지와 가장 흡사한 조직감을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate quality characteristics of reduced-salt pork sausage (PS) using pre-rigor muscle compared to those of regular-salt PS. In addition, effects of freezing on sausage batter with different temperatures (-30℃ vs -70℃) on quality characteristics of both sausage batter and cooked sausages during frozen storage were observed. Methods: Pre-rigor and post-rigor pork hams were used to manufacture low-fat sausages. Sausages using post-rigor (Post) muscle were manufactured at a salt level of 1.5%, whereas those with pre-rigor (Pre) muscle were processed at salt level of 1.0%. After these muscles were made at two salt levels (1.5% salt, Post-rigor; 1.0% salt, Pre-rigor), Sausage batters were stored at two frozen temperatures (-30℃ vs -70℃). During storage for 12 wks, they were measured for physicochemical and textural properties every 4 wks up to 12 wks. Results: pH values and temperatures of sausage batter of pre-rigor muscle were higher than those of post-rigor muscle regardless of the frozen temperature. The lightness and yellowness values of batter at the initial storage were the highest during storage. For PS, there were no differences in most parameters measured among all treatments. However, expressible moisture values (%) of Pre-30 and Pre-70 were lower than those of Post-30 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Regardless of frozen temperature during storage, quality characteristics of pre-rigor PS with salt level of 1.0% salt were similar to those of post-rigor PS with salt level of 1.5%. By using the pre-rigor muscle, salt content could be reduced by one third of the regular-salt level (1.5%) of post-rigor muscle.
