This study was carried out to investigate the effect of red wine on the color, hardness, springiness, chewiness, pH, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) content, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value, and total bacterial number of pork meat stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Pork meat was treated with 25% water (control), 20% water and 5% red wine (RW5), 15% water and 10% red wine (RW10), or 10% water and 15% red wine (RW15). The lightness ($L^*$), redness ($a^*$) and yellowness ($b^*$) values tended to decrease with longer storage period (p<0.05). The $L^*$ values of RW10 and RW15 were higher than those of control and RW5 on the first day of storage, whereas the control and RW5 had higher $L^*$ values compared to RW10 and RW15 after 10 days (p<0.05). Hardness of RW5 was the lowest after 10 days of storage (p<0.05). The pH levels were not significantly different among the samples. The VBN contents increased with longer storage period (p<0.05), and those of RW10 and RW15 were lower than those of the control and RW5 after 10 days of storage (p<0.05). The TBARS values increased with longer storage period (p<0.05), and those of the control, RW5, RW10, and RW15 were 0.61, 0.45, 0.35 and 0.33 mg MA/kg, respectively, after 10 days of the storage. The total bacterial numbers increased with longer storage period, and those of RW5, RW10 and RW15 were lower compared to the control (p<0.05). Taste, tenderness, juiciness, and palatability were not significantly different among the samples, but the flavor of RW5 had the highest value after 10 days of storage (p<0.05). These results suggest that red wine can inhibit protein degradation, lipid oxidation, and bacterial growth when used as an additive of seasoned pork meat.

The effects of red yeast rice powder on physicochemical properties of chicken thigh meat sausage were investigated. Control sausages were prepared with 1.2% NPS (nitrite pickling salt). Others samples were prepared with 1%, 2%, and 3% red yeast rice powder and 1.2% NaCl. With increasing red yeast rice powder content, the pH of uncooked and cooked samples generally decreased. In addition, lightness, and yellowness decreased with increasing content of red yeast powder (P<0.05), whilst redness increased with increasing content of red yeast powder in sausage samples (P<0.05). In addition, the samples with red rice powder showed more than 3 times higher redness compared to samples with 1.2% NPS, regardless of addition level. No significant difference in cooking yield among the treatments. The hardness of samples increased with increasing red yeast rice powder content, while the cohesiveness of samples containing red yeast rice powder was less than those observed for the control. Consequently, red yeast rice powder can be used to improve redness in sausages without adverse effect on cooking yield.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of Red clay(Hwangto) as feed additives with 26 Hanwoo steers at two regions for 540 days from six to 24 months of age on feed efficiency, meat quantity and meat quality. Feeding trial 1 was conducted with two treatment groups by five heads/treatment which were T1(Control) and T2(Control+ad libitum Hwangto) at National Livestock Research Institute. Feeding trial 2 was conducted with four treatment groups by four heads/treatment which were T1(Control), T2(Control+2% Hwangto), T3(Control+5% Hwangto) and T4(Control+ad libitum Hwangto) at a private Hanwoo breeding farm. In feeding trial 1, average daily gains by growing, fattening, finishing and over-all periods were 0.572, 0.866, 0.869 and 0.769kg in T1, and 0.537, 0.904, 0.857 and 0.766kg in T2, respectively. Average daily gain for growing and finishing period was high in T1 but in T2 for fattening period, which were not statistically significant. Also concentrates and TDN intakes per kg gains were not statistically significant by treatments. In carcass characteristic, dressed carcass and red meat percentage were high in T1 but in T2 for retailed cut percentage without significant difference. The yield index and shear force was 69 and 70, 4.4 and 6.1 kg/$cm^2$ in T1 and T2, respectively. In palatability traits, the panel test scores of juiciness, tenderness and flavor were 4.08 and 4.64, 3.42 and 3.96, 4.58 and 4.80 in T1 and T2, respectively. which showed a tendency to improvement in Hwangto feeding groups. In feeding trial 2, the range of average daily gains were 0.656(T6) to 0.772(T3), 0.937(T6) to 1.009(T5), 0.592(T3) to 0.675kg(T6) in growing, fattening and finishing period, respectively. Although it was high in T3, T5 and T6 at growing, fattening and finishing period, respectively, it was not significantly different by treatments. The ranges of concentrates and TDN intakes per kg gains were 8.71 to 9.50(average 9.05) and 7.52 to 7.64kg(average 7.55kg), they all were lower in Hwangto feeding groups than in control about 4.5 to 8.3% and 1.2 to 1.6%, respectively. In carcass characteristics, back-fat thickness, loin eye muscle area and yield index were not difference by treatments, but marbling scores were high in T5 and T6 than in percent. Summarizing above results, it may be concluded that the use of unprocessed Hwangto as feed additives for growing-fattening steers seems to improve meat quality but not red meat quantity and feed efficiency, and may be required to feed ad libitum during the finishing period.

A group of Hanwoo (Korean cattle) steers (n=14,386) was sampled from a commercial abattoir located in Seoul over one year period (spring, summer, autumn and winter) and their carcass traits were collected. Carcass traits assessed by an official meat grader comprised degree of marbling, meat color, fat color, texture and maturity for quality grade, and back fat thickness, ribeye area and carcass weight for yield grade. A heavier carcass with a higher marbling score, more red meat color and white fat color received better quality grade (p<0.05). Regression analysis showed that the marbling score was the strongest attribute (partial $R^2=0.88$) for quality grade. Lighter carcasses with a thinner back fat and larger ribeye area received higher yield grade score. The back fat thickness was the most negative determinant of yield grade (Partial $R^2=-0.66$). The slaughter season had a little effect on quality and yield grades. As slaughter weight increased, back fat thickness and ribeye area increased linearly, whereas marbling score reached its asymptotic level at approximately 570 kg. As a consequence, quality grade showed a considerable improvement up to 570 kg, but increases in slaughter weight afterward showed a little benefit on quality grade. There was a clear curvilinear relationship between slaughter weight and yield grade in that the yield grade reached its highest point at approximately 490 kg and decreased afterward. These results suggested that 570kg at the age of 24 months might be the economic slaughter weight for quality grade but 490 kg for yield grade.

The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects on growth performance, meat quality parameters and fatty acids of meat by restricted diet amount on finishing Berkshires. A total of 180 pigs (Berkshire, initially 52 kg BW) at 100 days of age were allotted in arrangement in a completely randomized design (10 pigs per pen), blocked arrangement of treatments with 3 replications. The variables were market ages (180, 200 and 220 days) and in which was also included sex (gilts and barrow). All the pigs were restrictively fed so that day could be marked at 103 kg. Pork quality was evaluated from 4 pigs of each treatment. Average daily gain (ADG) and average daily feed intake (ADFI) were decreased (p<0.05) with age increase. The ratio of feed to gain was increased (p<0.05) at 200 and 220 days compared to that of 180 days. Moisture and crude protein of longissimus dorsi muscle (LM) at 180 days were increased (p<0.05) compared to 200 and 220 days. Crude fat was increased (p<0.05) by age and crude ash was lower (p<0.05) at 180 days than at 220 days. Red to green meat color scale (CIE a$^{*}$) increased (p<0.05) at 200 and 220 days more than at 180 days. Regarding fatty acid composition in meat, saturated fatty acids (SFA) was increased more (p<0.05) at 220 days than at 180 and 200 days. The results indicate that even with a restricted diet of low nutrient supplement, there was an improvement in Berkshire meat quality parameters.

This study was conducted to investigate the composition of the fatty acids in the breast meat of Red-brown Korean native chickens (KNC-R). This study used a total sample of three hundred eighty-two KNC-R (males: 190, females: 192). We used the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) method to extract the fatty acids. A 2-way ANOVA of the R program was used to assess the effects of batch and sex on each fatty acid trait. Analysis of the fatty acid in the sampled population showed that the predominant fatty acid was oleic acid (C18:1; 28.252%) which is monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA), followed by palmitic acid (C16:0; 20.895%), saturated fatty acid (SFA), and two omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFAs): linoleic (C18:2; 15.975%), and arachidonic (C20:4; 10.541%). Indices used to evaluate the nutritional quality of fat in the diet: ratio between PUFAs and SFAs (P/S), thrombogenicity index (TI), and atherogenicity index (AI) were calculated and were 0.959, 0.814, and 0.355, respectively. Currently, meat consumers need healthier fatty acids. Therefore, information on the content of fatty acid in chicken meat is very important for meat consumers in choosing the type of the meat to be consumed.

This study was done to determine the adherence rate of Listeria monocytogenes(LM) from pork meat to pork meat, conveyer belt and stainless steel, and cutting board at $10^{\circ}C$ for given times (2, 4, 24 hours). The adherence rates of ATCC and wild type LM from pork meat to red meat or fat meat after 2 hour contact time were approximately 65-79%, but 100% adherence rates of both LM after 6 hours were observed. The adherence rate of ATCC LM from pork meat to conveyer belt and stainless steel after 24 hours was 0.15%, while the adherence rate of wild type LM was rapidly increased from 4.34 after 2 hours to 28.6% after 24 hours. Also, The adherence rate of ATCC LM from pork meat to stainless steel after 24 hours ranged from 2.63% after 2 hours to 0.39% after 24 hours, while the adherence rate of wild type LM ranged from 0% after 2 hours to 24.4% after 24 hours. In the meantime, no adherence rate of both LM from pork meat to cutting board was observed. This results suggest that the adherence rate of LM from pork meat to pork meat or food contact surfaces was significantly affected by contact time and wild type LM showed much higher adherence rate to pork meat or food contact surfaces than ATCC LM.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Dietary factors are important contributors to cardiometabolic and cancer mortality. We examined the secular trends of nine dietary factors (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds, milk, red meat, processed meat, sugar-sweetened beverages, and calcium) and the associated burdens of cardiometabolic and cancer mortality in Korea using representative cross-sectional survey data from 1998 to 2016. SUBJECTS/METHODS: Using dietary data from Korean adults aged ≥ 25 years in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), we characterized secular trends in intake levels. We performed comparative risk assessment to estimate the population attributable fraction and the number of cardiometabolic and cancer deaths attributable to each dietary factor. RESULTS: A total of 231,148 cardiometabolic and cancer deaths were attributable to nine dietary risk factors in Korea from 1998 to 2016. Suboptimal intakes of fruits and whole grains were the leading contributors. Although the intakes of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains moderately improved over time, the intake levels in 2016 (192.1 g/d, 225.6 g/d, and 10.9 g/d, respectively) remained far below the optimal levels. Deaths attributable to the low intakes of nuts and seeds (4.5 g/d), calcium (440.5 mg/d), and milk (37.1 g/d) and the high intakes of red meat (54.7 g/d), processed meat (4.7 g/d), and sugar-sweetened beverages (33.0 g/d) increased since 1998. Compared with older age groups (≥ 45 years), more unfavorable changes in dietary patterns were observed in the younger population aged 25-44 years, including more sharply increased intakes of processed meat. CONCLUSIONS: We observed improvement in the intakes of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and unfavorable changes in the intakes of processed meat and sugar-sweetened beverages over the past few decades. Our data suggest that to reduce the chronic disease burden in Korea, more effective nutritional policies and interventions are needed to target these dietary risk factors.

This study was performed to determine the adherence rates of standard type Salmonella Typhimurium (ST) and wild type Salmonella spp.(WT) in pork after the following contact types and times at $10^{\circ}C$: pork meat (2, 6, 24 hr), conveyer belt (2, 6 hr), stainless steel (2, 6 hr), and cutting board (2, 6 hr). After 6 hr of pork meat to meat fat contact, the adherence rates for ST and WT were approximately 4.21 and 26.87%, respectively, and after 6 hrs of pork meat to red meat contact they were 16.40 and 27.48%, respectively. However, after 24 hr of both types of contact, ST and WT showed 100% adherence rates. The adherence rates for ST after 2 hr and 6 hr of pork meat to conveyer belt contact were 1.34 and 0.60%, respectively, while the adherence rate for WT was 5.14% after 6 hr of contact. After pork meat to stainless steel contact, ST showed adherence rates of zero and 1.59% after 6 and 24 hr of contact, respectively, while the adherence rates for WT ranged from 0.17% after 2 hr to 5.01% after 6 hr. On the other hand, neither ST nor WT offered adherence data following pork meat to cutting board contact. These results suggest that the adherence rates of ST and WT after pork meat to pork meat contact or pork meat to processing surface contact were significantly affected by the contact time and WT presented much higher adherence rates for both types of transmission than ST.
