The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of hot- and cold-boning on sarcomere length, drip loss and protein solubility of post-rigor porcine longissimus muscle. A total of ten pigs(borrow, 100$\pm$5 kg) were randomly selected at a commercial plant and the carcasses were split in half after slaughter. The longissimus muscle of the left side was dissected and chilled at 0$^{\circ}C$ after trimming of subcutaneous fat whereas the right side carcasses were served for cold-boning after chilling for 24 hrs. The temperature, pH and sarcomere length of porcine longissimus muscle were measured at postmortem 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours. Drip loss, cooking loss, Minolta L*a*b*, shear force and protein solubility were measured at postmortem 24 hrs. The pH of cold-boning samples was rapidly decreased whereas temperature and sarcomere length of hot-boning samples were rapidly decreased during 24 hrs of chilling. Hot-boning muscles showed significantly (P<0.05) higher pHu and shorter sarcomere compared with cold boning muscles because of cold shortening. However, there were no significant differences in drip loss, cooking loss and shear force value between hot- and cold boned samples. The samples of hot-boning showed lower Minolta L* value and higher sarcoplasmic protein solubility compared with cold boned samples. These results suggest that the pale color changing of porcine longissimus muscle could be inhibited by hot-boning due to rapid chilling of the muscle although sarcomere length could be shortened because of cold shortening. Also these results show that hot-boning of porcine carcass could have a high protein solubility without negative effects of drip loss or tenderness of porcine longissimus muscle.

To investigate the effects of deboning time and muscle type of ham on quality characteristics of cooked press ham, a total of twelve pigs(barrow, 100±5kg) were slaughtered and split in half. The left side ham of carcasses was deboned immediately after slaughter whereas the right side ham was deboned after chilling for 24 hours at 4℃. Each of two muscles(SM; Semimembranosus, BF; Biceps femoris) was used to make a press ham. The pH of hot-boning muscles was significantly(p＜0.05) higher than that of cold- boning muscles, and the pH of SM samples was significantly(p＜0.05) higher than BF samples. Hot-boning muscles showed significantly(p<0.05) longer sarcomere length compared with cold-boning muscles. There was no significant difference in myoglobin(Mb) percentage between SM and BF muscles, but SM samples of hot-boning showed significantly(p<0.05) lower L* value compared to hot-boning BF samples. The lightness(L*) of hot-boning muscles was significantly(p<0.05) lower than that of cold-boning muscles. These results suggested that the dark color of hot-boning samples might be due to not only the high muscle pH but also the long sarcomere length without difference in Mb percentage. Hardness and gumminess of hot-boning press ham were significantly(p<0.05) lower than those of cold-boning samples. These results implied that color and pH of press ham did not affected by deboning time or muscle type of ham. However data suggested that texture and panel test of press ham might be improved by using hot-boned muscle due to long sarcomere length of raw meat.

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of hot-boning and soy sauce as a curing agent on the processing properties of beef jerky. Beef jerky was prepared under the following four treatment conditions; Beef jerky with cold-boned beef and salt solution, beef jerky with cold-boned beef and soy sauce solution, beef jerky with hot-boned beef and salt solution, and beef jerky with hot-boned beef and soy sauce solution. Cured meat and jerky containing hot-boned beef had a significantly higher pH, water holding capacity (WHC), moisture content, Myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), processing yields, tenderness, and sensorial scores than samples containing cold-boned beef (p<0.05). Regardless of the raw materials, the jerky containing soy sauce had a significantly lower pH, WHC, moisture content, salt content, TBA, CIE $L^*$ and $b^*-$ values, and significantly higher MFI, mechanical tenderness, and sensorial scores (p<0.05). Based on these findings, we concluded that the use of hot-boned meat and soy sauce was the most effective boning method and curing agent during beef jerky processing.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of hot boning and curing condition on the quality characteristics of ground chicken breast. Treatments were cured by four conditions follows; control (general curing method), T1 (after hot-boning and then immediately cured), T2 (after hot-boning and immediately cured, then frozen), and T3 (after hot-boning, immediately frozen, refrigerated and then cured). The pH of chicken breast in the state of pre-rigor was 6.22. The pH of cold storage or freezing chicken breast meat respectively were 5.70 or 5.61. The pH of T1 and T2 treatments were significantly higher than those of control and T3 treatment (p<0.05). After stored for 1 wk, the pH value of T1 treatment had a higher value than those of other treatments. T1 treatment had the highest water holding capacity and the lowest cooking loss among all treatments, regardless of the cooking methods. The reduction in diameter for T1 and T2 treatments was lower than those of control and T3 treatment (p<0.05). T1 treatment had the lowest fat loss and moisture loss among all treatments, and the emulsifying capacity of T1 treatment was the highest. The protein solubility of T1 treatment was significantly lower than that of T3 treatment.

In most developing countries consumers purchase retail cuts from hot carcasses and prepare traditional meat products as per their convenience and requirements. In this study, effects of different post mortem handling practices on quality of meat curry from culled sheep meat have been studied. After slaughter, leg cuts were subjected to nine commonly prevalent handling conditions in India viz. deboning (boning out) and cooking within 2-3 h (1), deboning immediately and cooking after 5-6 h (2), deboning after 5-6 h and cooking (3), deboning immediately, storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 24 h and cooking (4), chilling for 24 h at $4^{\circ}C$, deboning and cooking (5), deboning after 5-6 h, storage for 24 h at $4^{\circ}C$, and cooking (6), deboning after 5-6 h, storage for 48 h at 4??C and cooking (7), deboning after 5-6 h, freezing and cooking (8), deboning after 5-6 h, storage for 24 h at $4^{\circ}C$, freezing and cooking (9). Significant differences were observed in pH, water-holding capacity, cooking loss and shear force values. Sensory scores were significantly higher in conditions (1), (5) and (9), and significantly lower in conditions (4) and (6). From the results, it was concluded that, to have the best quality product, meat should be cooked either immediately after slaughter or should be deboned just before cooking. Storage of deboned meat at refrigerated temperature must be avoided.

To evaluate the effects of early postmortem vacuum packaging (VP) on meat quality during postmortem chilled storage, hot-boned lamb was vacuum-packaged at 1, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h postmortem and stored around 2℃ until 168 h postmortem, with lamb packaged in plastic wrap as the control (aerobic packaging). Intramuscular pH decline was delayed when lamb was vacuum packaged at 1, 6, and 12 h postmortem (p<0.05). The lamb vacuum-packaged at 1 h postmortem (VP-1h group) had significantly lower shear force values and purge losses accompanied by lower free thiol group values than other treatments during postmortem storage and was also higher in extractable calpain-1 activity by 6 h postmortem (p<0.05). Free thiol group concentrations were significantly higher after VP at 6 and 12 h postmortem (p<0.05). Packaging lamb under vacuum very early postmortem produced the lowest shear force and purge loss, likely by slowing heat loss and muscle temperature decline, implying that lamb quality is improved by VP when applied very early postmortem. This was at the expense of protein oxidation, which was unrelated to other meat quality measurements, most likely because potential contracture during hot boning confounded its impact. Further research is required to understand the implications of the interaction between protein oxidation, VP, and hot boning on the acceptability of lamb.

Turbulent convective heat transfer phenomenon which occur around the evaporator section of heat pump were analyzed experimentally. For this purpose a special wind tunnel and a heat pump system were designed and fabricated. Evaporator section was installed perpendicular to air flow direction and part of the evaporator was made of a glass tube for visual observation. The velocity distribution, turbulent intensity and temperature distribution were measured by hot wire technique and thermocouples. An experimental correlation for the convective heat transfer coefficient was obtained and the result is somewhat higher than the value calculated from Hilpert equation. The difference in two equations is believed to be due to the boning effect inside the evaporator tube.
