This study was conducted to investigate the effect of intramuscular fat scores on pork quality assurance. Pork loins were collected from animals (110-120 kg body weight) slaughtered in a commercial slaughterhouse, assigned an IMF score (1-3) from and stored for 24 hrs at $-3^{\circ}C$. Samples were analyzed for chemical composition, pH, cooking and drip loss, shear force, meat color, and texture characteristics. The moisture, crude protein and crude ash content were not significantly different among the various IMF score groups. The crude fat content of the IMF score 3 group was significantly higher than the IMF score 1 and 2 groups (p<0.05). The pH values of the IMF score 2 and 3 groups was significantly higher than the IMF score 1 group (p<0.05). There was a no significant difference in shear force value and cooking loss among the IMF score groups. The purge loss content of the IMF 3 group was significantly lower than that of the IMF score 1 group (p<0.05). The increase in IMF score resulted in lower hardness, gumminess, and brittleness values. The hardness and gumminess of the IMF score 3 group were significantly lower than those of the IMF 1 score group. The adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and springiness were not significantly different among the IMF score groups. With regard to meat color traits, lightness ($CIE\;L^*$) was not significantly different among the IMF score groups. The $a^*\;and\;b^*$ values correlated positively with the IMF score. In general, the results of this study show that the CIE color values and drip loss had a positive correlation, while only redness was positively correlated with shear force and hardness. pH was negatively correlated with CIE color values and drip loss, while positively correlated with moisture content.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of red pepper seed powder addition on the chemical compositions, cooking characteristics, and sensory properties of tteokgalbi. Tteokgalbi was prepared by addition of 0% (control), 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% red pepper seed powder. The moisture and ash contents of samples increased with increased content of red pepper seed powder. In addition, the pH value, CIE $a^*$ value, and CIE $b^*$ value of uncooked and cooked samples increased with higher content of red pepper seed powder. However, cooking loss, diameter reduction, and thickness reduction of samples decreased with increasing content of red pepper seed powder. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of samples increased with higher content of red pepper seed powder, and the sensory evaluation of tteokgalbi containing 3% red pepper seed powder was the highest. Therefore, usages of red pepper seed powder can improve quality characteristics of tteokgalbi.

Two kinds of samples were prepared from the loin in the carcass with grade B2 and D, which were chilled for 24 hour after slaughter. The fresh beef in this study were obtained by chilling the loin for 1 day after wrapping them. On the other hand, the chilled beef were obtained by cutting the loin by 500 g and chilling them for 30 day after vacuum packing. The experiment was carried out to compare the palatability related with characteristics of loin with grade B2 and D and to investigate the chilling effect of the loin with grade D. In the case of fresh beef, it was found that the loin with grade B2 has better meat color, but lower pH, lactic acid content, and myoglobin content, than them of the loin with grade D. Also, the loin with grade B2 has lower tenderness due to its low hardness and chewiness, and high myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI). Furthermore, it has high monounsaturated fatty acid/saturated fatty acid (MUFA/SFA) and ATP content, and good raw meat aroma. It also shows an excellent palatability of cooked meat, although it has low cooking loss and heat shotening. On the other hand, the loin with grade D has higher chilling effect on hardness, chewiness, MFI and MUFA/SFA, than them of the loin with grade B2. However, in the case of chilled beef, the loin with grade D shows much worse tenderness, cooked meat aroma, and palatability than them of the loin with grade B2.

This study was carried out to suggest an effective cooking method for pork bellies to decrease intake of animal fat. The physico-chemical characteristics of pork bellies cooked by different methods (boiling, steaming, baking and frying) were investigated. The moisture contents of cooked meats decreased but crude lipid contents increased. The cooking losses, moisture drain rates, and lipid drain rates were high after frying and boiling. The pH values increased markedly with boiling and both the acid value and the refraction index of the fat significantly increased with frying. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of the meat increased considerably with boiling, but decreased notably after frying. The springiness decreased very much with boiling and cohesiveness greatly increased with steaming. The CIE $L^*$ (lightness) value increased notably with steaming but decreased markedly with frying. The CIE $a^*$ (redness) value decreased markedly with all cooking methods, especially boiling, and the CIE $b^*$ (yellowness) value decreased with both boiling and steaming but increased with both baking and frying. The fatty acids of fat from the raw pork bellies were primarily oleic acid (42.4%), palmitic acid (23.9%), and linoleic acid (16.1%). The ratio of total monounsaturated fatty acids to total saturated fatty acids was 1.190 and the ratio of total polyunsaturated fatty acids to total saturated fatty acids was 0.446. In addition, the composition of fatty acids was not significantly changed with any cooking method except frying. Therefore, boiling is the effective cooking method for pork bellies to decrease intake of animal fats.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in the physicochemical properties of five muscles from low-fat pork cuts during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 14d. As the chilled-storage time increased, the moisture and fat contents and the pH of the muscles did not significantly (p>0.05) change, but the water-holding capacity of the supraspinatus, semitendinosus, and longissimus dorsi muscles significantly (p<0.05) improved. The purge loss of the five muscles significantly (p<0.05) increased with the increase in the storage time, but their cooking loss and hardness did not significantly (p>0.05) change as the chilled-storage time increased. It can be seen from these results that the physicochemical properties of the five muscles do not changes greatly during the 14-day cold storage. Therefore, it is possible to distribute such five pork muscles to fresh-pork-meat retail stores or shops without meat quality degradation.

This study was conducted to investigate the influence of feeding illite(yellow soil component) on meat quality of pork. 40 pigs were fed with commercial formulated feed (control group) and 1% illite added feed(treatment group). Pigs grown up to 100~110kg of weight were slaughtered in commercial abattoir. After chilling for 24hours, samples were collected from M. longissimus dorsi muscle, and stored at $4\pm$$1^{\circ}C$ for analyses. The physico-chemical properties was determined during storage days as follows. Ultimate pH was not significantly different between control and treatment(pH 5.58 and 5.60, respectively). Water-holding capacity measured using filter paper press method of the treatment group was slightly higher than that of the control group. Cooking loss of treatment group were significantly lower than that of the control group at 1 and 7 days(p〈0.05). Shear force between control and treatment group was not different. L*- and a*-value were not significantly different between the two groups(p〉0.05), but b*-value of treatment group was lower than that of the control group(p〈0.05). The drip loss of all samples was increased with storage days, and that of the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control at 1 and 3 day storage. Meat color measured using NPPC pork quality standards was not significantly different between the two groups(p〉0.05), but marbling content of the treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group(p〈0.05). Sensory characteristics of, flavor taste and tenderness did not show significant differences(p〉0.05), but juiciness of the treatment group showed higher value than that of the control group(p〈0.05)

In this study, the effects of feeding citrus byproduct on physicochemical and sensory characteristics of chicken meats were investigated. The samples consisted of chicken meats provided with only feed for laying hen without citrus byproduct (T-0), and the chicken meats fed with 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% citrus byproduct during the starter (initial period feed; $1{\sim}9th$ day), the grower (middle period feed; $10{\sim}24th$ day), and the finisher (latter period feed; $25{\sim}36th$ day), respectively. The $L^*$ value of thigh was significantly lower in the T-1 than in the T-0, the $a^*$ value was significantly higher in the T-1 than in the T-0 (p<0.05). The water holding capacity of thigh was significantly higher in the T-1 than in the T-0 and the cooking loss was significantly higher in the T-0 than in the T-1 (p<0.05). The acid value was significantly higher in the T-0 than in the T-1 (p<0.05). Antioxidant activity was higher in the T1 than in the T-0 (p<0.05). There was no significance between T-0 and T-1 regardless of feeding citrus byproduct, in terms of chicken's $b^*$ value, frozen loss, thawing loss, hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, shear force, free amino acid content of hot water extracts, taste, flavor, tenderness, juiciness and palatability.

This study evaluated the effect of the addition of pig skin gelatine powder with different levels on the chemical compositions, cooking characteristics, and sensory properties of tteokgalbi. Tteokgalbi was produced from products containing 0% (control), 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% pig skin gelatine powder. The protein and moisture contents of samples increased with an increase of pig skin gelatin powder levels. In addition, the pH value and CIE $b^*$ values of uncooked and cooked samples increased with increasing amount of pig skin gelatin powder. However, cooking loss, diameter reduction, and thickness reduction of samples decreased with an increase of gelatin powder contents. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of samples increased with an increase of gelatin powder contents, and sensory evaluation of tteokgalbi containing 2~3% pig skin gelatin powder was the highest. Therefore, usages of pig skin gelatin powder can improve quality characteristics of tteokgalbi.

본 연구는 육성기, 비육기 사료내 라이신 수준에 따른 재래흑돼지육과 개량종 돈육의 해동후 저온저장중 품질비교를 구명하고자 실시하였다. pH는 저장 5일에 고라이신 수준의 재래흑돼지육이 고라이신 수준의 개량종 돈육보다 높았으며(p<0.05), 드립감량은 저장 5일까지 고라이신 수준의 재래흑돼지육이 저라이신 수준의 개량종 돈육보다 낮았다(p<0.05). TBARS는 저장 7일에 고라이신 수준의 재래흑돼지육이 고라이신 수준의 개량종 돈육보다 높았다(p<0.05). Hunter L 값은 저장 2일부터 재래흑돼지육이 개량종 돈육보다 낮았고(p<0.05), a 및 b 값은 저장 5,7일까지 재래흑돼지육이 개량종 돈육보다 높았다(p<0.05). 신선육의 육색, 종합적 기호도는 고라이신 수준의 재래흑돼지육이 가장 높았으며(p<0.05), 가열육의 맛, 풍미, 조직감, 종합적 기호도는 재래흑돼지육이 개량종 돈육보다 높았다(p<0.05). 따라서 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면 고라이신 수준의 사료를 급여시 재래흑돼지육의 보수력, 육색, 관능적 기호도는 향상되었으나 저온저장중 지방산화는 촉진되었다.
