Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of gender on sensory scores, fatty acid and amino acid of Berkshire pork A total of 40 pigs (60 kg) were divided into 2 group (gilt and barrow) and raised up to 110 kg live weight. Pigs were conventionally slaughtered, and then chilled overnight. Pork loin (longissimus dorsi) muscle was removed from each left side and meat qualities were evaluated. The results obtained were as follows; In sensory evaluation, color, marbling score, aroma and overall acceptability of brrow groups were significantly higher than that of gilt groups (p<0.05). In fatty acid analysis, linoleic acid and arachidonic acid of gilt groups were higher than those of barrow groups, EFA (essential fatty acid) and UFA (unsaturated fatty acid) were lower in barrow groups compared to the gilt groups. In amino acid compositions, alanine, tyrosine and arginine of barrow groups were significantly higher and threonine, proline and histidine lower than those of gilt groups (p<0.05).

본 연구는 버크셔종의 성별에 따른 육질 특성을 파악하고자 실시되었으며, 60 kg의 Berkshire 40두를 2 돈방에 암퇘지와 거세돼지 각각 20두씩 배치하여 출하 시(약 110 kg)까지 비육한 후 도축하여 실험에 공시하였다. 신선육 관능검사에서 암퇘지보다 거세 돼지가 육색, 마블링 점수가 높아 전체적인 기호도가 높게 나타났으며, 가열육 관능검사에서도 암퇘지보다 거세 돼지가 육색, 향 및 기호성에서 높은 점수를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 지방산 조성 중 linoleic acid와 arachidonic acid는 암퇘지보다 거세 돼지가 낮아(p<0.05) 필수 지방산과 다가 불포화 지방산도 낮은 경향을 보였으나 전체적으로 성별에 따른 지방산 조성에는 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다.(p>0.05). 아미노산 조성은 암퇘지보다 거세 돼지가 감미계인 alanine, 방향족인 tyrosine, 필수 아미노산인 arginine은 높게 나타났고, proline과 감미계이자 필수 아미노산인 threonine, 필수아미노산인 histidine은 낮게 나타나(p<0.05) 전체적으로 암퇘지보다 거세 돼지의 풍미가 낮은 경향이었으나 glutamic acid, 감미계, 황함유, 방향족 및 필수 아미노산 각각의 총 함량은 성 간에 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다(p>0.05).
