The influence of dietary beef tallow (BT) versus sunflower oil (SO) on meat quality and apparent digestibility and deposition of individual fatty acids in the whole carcass was investigated in pigs fed diets containing either BT or SO. The diets contained equal amounts of energy in the form of the variable fats and were fed on an iso-energetic, restricted basis. Crude fat in the SO diet was better digested (p<0.001) than in the BT diet. The dietary fat type had no effect on growth performance, physical properties of the carcass and meat quality. The pigs fed the BT diet showed lower (p<0.001) apparent digestibilities for palmitic and linoleic acid, but those of oleic and ${\alpha}$-linolenic acid were not affected. The ratio of deposition in the carcass to intake of digestible fatty acids for the whole feeding period was decreased (p<0.01) for oleic and linoleic acid in pigs fed the SO diet. The pigs fed the SO diet instead of the BT diet had a lower (p<0.05) deposition:intake ratio for mono-unsaturated fatty acids. The calculated minimum de novo synthesis of saturated fatty acids was increased for the SO diet, but that of mono-unsaturated fatty acids was not different. In conclusion, the iso-energetic replacement of BT by SO had a marked impact on the fatty acid composition of tissues, but did not affect carcass and meat quality traits in spite of the marked difference in the deposition of linoleic acid in adipose tissues, loin muscle and the whole body. In addition, it became clear that the type of dietary fat had marked, specific effects on the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids.

The results on the chemical characteristics of the pork fed with fermented feeds are summarized as follows; 1) The pork treated with fermented feeds had lower fat and higher protein content than control pork in proximate compositions. It is considered to be the improvement of the quality. 2) It was not recognized to the difference of oxidation level among the sample porks. 3) Oleic acid was the highest concentration in the components of fatty acid of pork. The rate of the saturated and unsaturated fatty acids is 38.8 % : 59.9 % in the ordinary meat, 40.8 % : 57.8 % in the a high-grade meat, and 36.3 % : 62.0 % in the pork treated with fermented feeds. In addition, the essential fatty acid content of them is 14 %, 11.2 %, and 16.7%, respectively. 4) Glutamic acid was the highest composition in total amino acids and the essential amino acid content was 39% in both an ordinary meat and the pork treated with fermented feeds, and 14 % in high-grade meat. 5) It was no difference in the inorganic content among the samples. The water holding capacity by extraction meat juice was higher to 92 % in the pork treated with fermented feeds and 15.6 % in a loss in quantity by heating than others. Thus, the pork bred with fermented feeds was evaluated to be good in terms of processing and cooking.

The effect of irradiation on the quality characteristics of pale-soft-exudative (PSE) pork was studied. The pork loin with severe PSE appearance was selected by meat grader,irradiated at 0 and 4.5 kGy, and meat quality characteristics including pH, color, lipid oxidation development, microbial and sensory quality were analyzed during 2 weeks of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The pH values of non-irradiated and 4.5 kGy-irradiated PSE raw pork loin was not different. Hunter color $a^*$-value, which represents redness of meat surface showed significant increase (P<0.05) in irradiated PSE pork loin. This higher Hunter color $a^*$-value maintained during 2 weeks of storage. By 4.5 kGy of irradiation, approximately 2 log reduction of total aerobic bacterial counts was achieved during 2 weeks of storage when compared with non-irradiated control. Sensory panelists prefer the color of irradiated PSE meat than that of non-irradiated control because of redness. From the results, it is possible to use an irradiation technology to improve not only microbiological safety but also the color of meat which has severe defect such as PSE.

The antioxidant effect of capsaicin, the pungent principle of red pepper and oleoresin extracted from red pepper was investigated by measuring TBA(Thiobarbituric acid) value and hydroperoxide value using CL-HPLC(Chemiluminescence-high performance liquid chromatography) during storage at $30^{\circ}C$. The antioxidant activity of capsaicin and oleoresin was compared with erythorbate already used. The antioxigenic effect of capsaicin and oleoresin was very effective to the preservation of ground bacon belly meat. Especially, oleoresin have a remarkable effect to prevent the peroxidation of ground bacon belly meat. Capsaicinoids were known as the main additives in Korea, but the antioxidant activity of meat products has not been reported. So, we suggest that capsaicin, especially, oleoresin combined with other natural antioxigenic substances as like tocopherol may be effective to prevent the oxidation of ground bacon belly meat.

To investigate the effect of ${\beta}$-hydroxyacyl CoA-dehydrogenase(HADH) activity increased by freezed and thaw process on myoglobin(Mb) oxidation without lipid oxidation during, pork loins were collected at postmortem 24 hts and sliced to steaks (3 cm thickness). Samples were packaged in a polyethylene bag and subjected to flesh group (control), one cycle fieezed and thaw group (treatment 1) and two cycles freezed and thaw group (treatment 2), respectively. Samples were measure meat color (CIE $L^*,\;a^*,\;b^*$), the contents(%) of MetMb, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value and HADH(${\beta}$-hydroxyacyl CoA-dehydrogenase) activity at 0, 3, and 7 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Both treatments showed significantly (p<0.05) lower $L^*$ and higher $L^*$ value compared to those of control at 7 days. On the contrary, MetMb contents(%) of treatments were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those of control during cold storage. However there were no significant (p> 0.05) differences in TBARS values between control and treatments during 7 days. There were significant (p<0.05) differences in HADH activity between control and treatments at 3 days of cold storage. Both treatments showed higher HADH activity compared to those of control. These results suggested that the freezed and thaw process could accelerate meat color deterioration, i.e. increased MetMb percentage without lipid oxidation in pork loin during cold storage. This also implied that autoxidation of Mb in freezed and thaw pork loin was influenced by enzyme-catalysed reactions in the tissue that would lead to decreased OxyMb.

Effects of replacing pork backfat with a combination (ICM) of isolated soy protein (ISP), carrageenan, and maltodextrin, or with ICM +olive oil, on the quality characteristics of sausages were investigated. Both treatments had lower fat content (p<0.05), but higher protein and moisture contents than the control (p<0.05). The fat content of low-fat sausage containing the ICM was increased on day 30 compared to day 1 and 15 (p<0.05), and that of ICM+olive oil was increased after day 15. The water holding capacity of ICM was lower than the control through day 30 (p<0.05). The ICM+olive oil had a lower cooking loss than ICM on day 1 and 15 (p<0.05). On day 1, the ICM had lower lightness and higher redness values than the control (p<0.05), and the ICM+olive oil had a higher yellowness value than the control and ICM (p<0.05). Both treatments presented higher hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness values than the control (p<0.05). The lipid oxidation values of both treatments were lower than the control on day 15 and 30 (p<0.05), and those were affected by the addition of olive oil. The ICM was rated higher for sensory color and overall acceptability than the ICM+olive oil (p<0.05).

Cacao has been shown to have antioxidant effects and health benefits. However, the applicability of cacao as a meat preservative has not been thoroughly evaluated. Here, we examined the effects of cacao nib extracts (CEs) on suppression of fat oxidation and enhancement of quality characteristics of pork patties. Cacao nib powder was extracted in distilled water or 50%, 70%, or 99% ethanol. CEs prepared using 70% ethanol had the highest total phenolic and total flavonoid contents, and the highest 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhytdrazyl radical and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging activities. Decompression-concentrated CEs prepared using 70% ethanol and 0.1% ascorbic acid were added to pork patties, and the physiochemical properties of the patties were measured. The pH of all pork patties increased during storage, but tended to decrease according to the CEs content. CEs enhanced the preservation of redness and texture of the pork patties during storage. Analysis of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in patties revealed that fat oxidation was highly suppressed in all treatment groups containing CEs during storage, and TBARS values decreased according to CE content. Treatment with 0.1% CE reduced fat oxidation to a level similar to that of treatment with 0.1% ascorbic acid. Consumer flavor preference increased according to CE content, and overall preference was the highest for patties prepared with 0.05% and 0.075% CEs. Overall, 70% ethanol was found to be the optimal concentration for extraction of cacao nibs, and adding 0.05% or 0.075% CEs to pork patties yielded the highest quality.

The effect of irradiation and packaging methods (vacuum vs aerobic) on microbial growth, electron donating ability, and lipid oxidation in marinated beef rib (Galbi) was investigated. The total aerobic bacteria in Gazlbi reduced significantly with the increase of irradiation dose, and the effect was more significant in the Galbi with vacuum packaging, The pH showed a decreasing trend during storage and this change was more significant in the Galbi with aerobic packaging. Electron donating ability of Galbi was reduced by irradiation in aerobic packaging but no difference was found in vacuum packaging except 7 days. The 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value of Galbi increased by irradiation in aerobic packaging during storage time, but that of vacuum packaging was maintained an initial value. Results indicated that irradiation coupled with vacuum packaging may enhance the microbial safety of Korean traditional meat products, Galbi, with minimum quality changes during storage.

Objective: To investigate the color and oxidative stabilities of longissimus lumborum (LL) and psoas major (PM) muscles from grain-finished Bos indicus cattle in Brazil. Methods: The LL and PM muscles were obtained 24 h post-mortem from eight (n = 8) Nellore bull carcasses, fabricated into 1.5-cm steaks, aerobically packaged, and stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for nine days. Steaks were analyzed for myoglobin concentration, pH, instrumental color, metmyoglobin reducing activity (MRA) and lipid oxidation. Results: The LL steaks exhibited greater (p<0.05) redness, color stability, and MRA than their PM counterparts on days 5 and 9. The LL and PM steaks demonstrated similar (p>0.05) lightness and yellowness on days 0, 5, and 9. On the other hand, PM steaks exhibited greater (p<0.05) myoglobin concentration, pH, and lipid oxidation than their LL counterparts. Conclusion: These results indicated that muscle source influenced the color and oxidative stabilities of beef from grain-finished Bos indicus animals. These results highlighted the necessity of muscle-specific strategies to improve the color stability of beef from grain-fed Bos indicus cattle.

This research investigated the synergic outcome of high intensity ultrasound (HIU) treatment and wet-dry combined aging (WDCA) on physiochemical characteristics and lipid oxidation during refrigerated storage to ameliorate pork meat's quality and shelf life. The CIE b^* values, cooking loss (CL %), and pH of the HIU treated samples were higher than those of the control over the aging period. They were significantly (p<0.05) modified by the aging period and ultrasound (US) treatment. However, the released water (RW %) and moisture were not significantly influenced by US treatment (p>0.05). The Warner-Bratzler shear force of HIU-treated samples was lower over control values except in 7-14 d, and it showed a significant difference between control and US treatment according to the significance of HIU (p<0.05). The thiobarbituric acid reactive substance of HIU-treated samples was significantly higher (p<0.05) than control values over the aging period. These results suggested that HIU treatment and WDCA showed a synergistic effect of maximizing the tenderness, but lipid oxidation was higher than before ultrasonic treatment. In agreement with this, the most favorable approach would involve implementing wet aging for a period of two weeks followed by dry aging for a period not exceeding one week after the application of HIU.
