The effect of fermented spinach extracts on color development in cured meats was investigated in this study. The pH values of raw cured meats without addition of fermented spinach extract or nitrite (negative control) were higher (p<0.05) than those added with fermented spinach extract. The pH values of raw and cooked cured meats in treatment groups were decreased with increasing addition levels of fermented spinach extract. The lightness and yellowness values of raw cured meats formulated with fermented spinach extract were higher (p<0.05) than those of the control groups (both positive and negative controls). The redness values of cooked cured meats were increased with increasing fermented spinach extract levels, whereas the yellowness values of cooked cured meats were decreased with increasing levels of fermented spinach extract. The lowest volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values were observed in the positive control group with addition of nitrite. TBARS values of cured meats added with fermented spinach extract were decreased with increasing levels of fermented spinach extract and VBN values of curing meat with 30% fermented spinach extract was lower than the other treatments. Total viable bacterial counts in cured meats added with fermented spinach extract ranged from 0.34-1.01 Log CFU/g. E. coli and coliform bacteria were not observed in any of the cured meats treated with fermented spinach extracts or nitrite. Residual nitrite contents in treatment groups were increased with increasing levels of fermented spinach extract added. These results demonstrated that fermented spinach could be added to meat products to improve own curing characteristics.

본 연구는 단기 숙성형 생햄의 식중독균 오염 상태와 냉장 및 실온 저장 조건 중 미생물수의 변화를 살펴보기 위하여 실시되었다. 생햄의 등심 원료육에서의 미생물 오염도를 조사한 결과 총균수는 $3.11\;log\;CFU/cm^2$이었고 유산균, Pseudomonas spp., Clostridium perfringens 및 효모와 곰팡이는 모두 2 log 미만이었으나 Enterobacteriaceae가 3.11 log로서 주종균이었다. 생햄 원료 및 10과 $25^{\circ}C$에서 저장 된 제품에서 Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Clostridium perfringens, Listeria monocytogenes와 Escherichia coli O157:H7 등 6가지 식중독균은 발견되지 않았다. 생햄의 초기 총균수는 3.06 log CFU/g이었으며 90일 후에도 균수 증가는 미미하여 $10^{\circ}C$와 $25^{\circ}C$에서 각각 4.6과 4.69 log CFU/g이었다. 생햄의 저장 중 주 종균은 유산균과 Staphylococcus균이었다.
