Abstract

In this research, PSF and PBF indicated beneficial influence on water binding ability of meat comparing to conventional freezing methods. High pressure in freezing process resulted some changes inhysical characteristics of pork: increment each color value, shear force and pH in PSF, PAF and PBF.
