본 연구의 목적은 레드비트 분말의 첨가가 냉장 저장중 비가열 돈육패티의 품질특성에 미치는 효과를 구명하기 위해 수행하였다. 실험구는 다음과 같이 구분하였다. 대조구: 아질산염 0.01%, T1: 아질산염 0.005%+레드비트 분말 0.1%, T2: 레드비트 분말 0.1%, T3: 레드비트 분말 0.3%, T4: 레드비트 분말 0.5%. 레드비트 분말을 첨가한 비가열 돈육패티의 품질특성에서 모든 처리구들이 수분, 보수력, pH에서 유사한 수준을 나타냈으나 (p>0.05), 가열 후 감량은 레드비트 분말의 첨가가 증가할수록 높아지는 결과를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 레드비트 분말의 첨가는 돈육패티의 조직특성과 관능평가에 큰 영향을 나타내지 않았으며, 레드비트 분말의 첨가가 증가할수록 적색도가 증가하는 결과를 나타내었다. 15일간의 냉장저장 중 레드비트 분말의 첨가는 비가열 돈육패티의 저장특성에 부정적인 영향을 나타내었으나 비가열 돈육패티의 외관을 크게 향상시킬 수 있는 우수한 착색제로서 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

This study investigated the antioxidant properties of the Radix isatidis extract and the effect of substituting it with sodium nitrite (SN) in a pork patty. The antioxidant activity of the Radix isatidis water extract (RIWE) was compared to those of the methanol and chloroform extracts (RIME and RICE, respectively). Patties were prepared with five different treatments: (1) a control with no RIWE and SN, (2) T1 with 150 ppm SN, (3) T2 with 100 ppm SN + 0.1% RIWE, (4) T3 with 50 ppm SN + 0.3% RIWE, and (5) T4 with 0.5% RIWE. They were used to compare the oxidation stability for 12 days at 4℃. The extraction yield of RIWE was 3.2 and 18.7 times higher (p<0.05) than those of RIME and RICE, respectively, but RIWE had the lowest (p<0.05) 1,1`-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity, superoxide dismutase-like activity, and total reducing ability. Patties with RIWE and SN exhibited lower (p<0.05) pH values after 12 days, compared to the control. After 4 days, the 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances content was lower (p<0.05) in T1, T2, T3, and T4 than in the control. The oxidation-reduction potential value was the lowest (p<0.05) in T3 and T4 after 4 days (p<0.05). T1, T2, T3, and T4 had a lower (p<0.05) volatile basic nitrogen content after 12 days, compared to the control. These findings suggest that RIWE has an antioxidant effect similar to that of SN, but further research on its antimicrobial effect may be required to determine if it is a good substitute for SN.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of gender on meat quality traits and sensory characteristics of pork loin. A total of 90 pork carcasses (180 days old, 45 barrows and 45 gilts, each gender group was consisted of fifteen 1+, 1 and 2 carcass grades) were selected and loin cuts were excised to investigate meat quality, electronic tongue measures and sensory panel test. There were significant differences in drip loss (1.66% vs 1.21%), released water (12.19% vs 10.68%) and cooking loss (23.67% vs 21.04%) between loins from barrow and gilt (p<0.05). However, no significant differences in meat color (CIE L* a* b*) and shear force were observed between gender groups (p>0.05). Umami and richness values of barrow were significantly higher than those of gilt, while barrow had significantly lower sourness value compared to gilt (p<0.05). On the sensory evaluation, barrow scored higher in flavor, juiciness and tenderness both, and as a result, barrow (5.51 points) also scored significantly higher than gilt (4.86 points). These results suggest that the umami intensity and sensory taste of barrow loin are superior to gilt loin due to its high water-holding capacity.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and probiotics have mostly consumed as dairy products such as city milk, fermented drinking yogurt and stirred yogurt, and LAB and probiotics have become popular to contribute to the flavor, taste, or preservation of food. In this study the effects of various milk products on the physicochemical properties of pork loin were determined. Pork loin samples were marinated in city milk, drinking yogurt and stirred yogurt for 24 hours, and were compared with the raw pork loin (control). Proximate, pH, color, shear force, electronic nose, and sensory evaluation were investigated quality properties of pork loin. The pre- and post- cooking pH was lowest in pork loin marinated in stirred yogurt(p <0.05). The pre-cooking lightness was significantly higher in pork loin marinated in city milk(p<0.05). The redness of pork loin marinated in stirred yogurt and drinking yogurt were significantly higher(p <0.05), but the shear force of pork loin marinated in stirred yogurt was significantly lower(P<0.05). The sensory evaluation of pork loin marinated in stirred yogurt were the highest(p<0.05). These results showed that various milk product marinating could be used to improve the quality characteristics and flavor of pork loin.

The widespread emergence of antimicrobial-resistant E. coli is now being seen in humans and animals, and there is an increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) E. coli on a global. In this study, 31 MDR E. coli isolates recovered from pork meat at retail markets were analyzed to determine the phenotypic and genetic characteristics. The resistance to ampicillin (30 isolates, 96.8%) and tetracycline (28 isolates, 90.3%) were the most frequent among the MDR E. coli isolates. Thirty (96.8%) of MDE E. coli isolates harbored the ß-lactamase–encoding gene blaTEM. Twenty-six (83.9%) isolates harbored a class 1 integron, and 30 (96.8%) isolates carried from 2 to 6 resistance genes. Frep (45.2%) and FIB (22.6%) replicons were most common on the replicon typing. This study suggests that monitoring of the antimicrobial resistance of the pathogens found in pork meat should be continued in the future due to concerns about food safety issues.

The objective of this study was to develop a palatability index for evaluating taste quality of pork through correlation and causality between fatty acids and taste related factors. Results of analysis of the components and taste evaluation among varieties showed that the taste quality of Duroc pork was the best. A correlation was found between fatty acids and taste evaluation factors. Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and oleic acid increased the sweetness and savory taste, the preferred flavors, while sourness and bitterness, the non-preferred flavors, decreased, and thus positively affecting the taste. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have been shown to have a negative effect on taste by decreasing their preferred taste while increasing their non-preferred taste. In addition, multiple regression between fatty acid and five taste factors showed that stearic acid and oleic acid increased the sweetness and savory taste, while myristic acid decreased the bitterness. Linolenic acid was found to be negatively affecting the taste by increasing non-preferred flavors. In conclusion, SFAs, oleic acid and linolenic acid were found to be the major factors affecting the taste of pork. Therefore, the results of this study can be used as an index to produce delicious pork for pig producers as well as help consumers to trust and purchase high quality domestic pork.

This study evaluated the effects of probiotics on the quality properties of standard pork cutlet (SC) and oven cooking type pork cutlet with probiotics (OCP). Higher (p ＜0.0001) moisture and protein contents were observed in OCP compared to SC. Fat content of OCP was lower (p＜0.0001) than SC. There was no significant difference in CIE color values between SC and OCP. The pH and lipid oxidation values of OCP were lower (p＜0.0001 and p＜0.01, respectively) than SC counterpart. Based on instrumental texture profile analysis, there was no significant difference in the springiness and cohesiveness between SC and OCP. However, the hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of OCP were higher (p＜0.0001) than SC. Crispiness by sensory panel was higher (p＜0.0001) in OCP than SC. The results showed that the oven cooking type pork cutlet added probiotics could improve potential of pork cutlet physicochemical properties and give physiological functional ability.

The impregnation of solid foods into the surrounding hypotonic or hypertonic solution was explored as a method to infuse NaCl in pork loin cube without altering its matrix. Mass transfer kinetics using a diffusive model as the mathematical model for moisture gain/loss and salt gain and the resulting textural properties were studied for the surrounding solutions of NaCl 2.5, 5.0, 10.0 and 15% (w/w). It was possible to access the effects of brine concentration on the direction of the resulting water flow, quantify water and salt transfer, and confirm tenderization effect by salt infusion. For brine concentrations up to 10% it was verified that meat samples gained water, while for processes with 15% concentration, pork loin cubes lost water. The effective diffusion coefficients of salt ranged from 2.43×10-9 to 3.53×10-9 m2/s, while for the values of water ranged from 1.22×10-9 to 1.88×10-9 m2/s. The diffusive model was able to represent well salt gain rates using a single parameter, i.e. an effective diffusion coefficient of salt through the meat. However, it was not possible to find a characteristic effective diffusion coefficient for water transfer. Within the range of experimental conditions studied, salt-impregnated samples by 5% (w/w) brine were shown with minimum hardness, chewiness and shear force.

본 연구는 저영양 비육돈 사양이 고영양 사양에 비해 도체 및 돈육의 질을 개선시킬 수 있을지를 조사하기 위해 수행되었다. 체중 약 50kg의 LYD 교잡종 암퇘지와 거세돼지 각각 68두씩을 8돈방에 배치하고 3.54Mcal DE/kg과 1.00% 라이신을 함유한 고영양사료 혹은 3.02Mcal DE/kg과 0.68% lysine을 함유한 저영양사료를 약 120kg까지 급여하고 도살하였다. 총 20개의 도체로부터 삼겹살, 등심, 뒷다리 및 목심을 잘라내고 삼겹살과 등심, 뒷다리 및 목심의 대표적인 근육의 질에 관한 이화학적 분석과 관능검사를 수행하였다. 일당증체량, 사료효율 및 등지방두께는 고에너지구보다 저에너지구가 낮았다(p<0.05). 목심의 가열감량, 경도 및 씹힘성 수치는 저영양구가 고영양구보다 낮았다. 신선육(근육)에 대한 관능평가에서 등심의 색깔, 상강도 및 기호도 평점은 저영양구가 고영양구보다 높았고, 삼겹살의 근육:지방 균형 평점은 저영양구가 고영양구 보다 높은 경향을 나타냈다(p<0.10). 또한 뒷다리 가열육에 대한 관능평가에서는 풍미 및 다즙성 평점이 저영양구가 고영양구보다 높았다. 결론적으로, 이상의 결과는 저영양으로 비육돈을 사양하면 고영양 사양에 비해 성장성적은 저하되지만 도체 및 돈육의 질을 향상시킬 수도 있음을 시사한다.

This study assessed effective strategies to reduce the sodium intake among consumers using pork cutlet sauce as a model food system. Original pork cutlet sauce and sodium-reduced sauce (29% reduced by a salt substitute) were analyzed to characterize the sensory properties using descriptive analysis. The effects of sodium-reduction of the sauce, consumer type (nutrition teachers vs. general consumers), information related to the sodium content, serving method, and consumer’s health, taste and sodium-related attitudes on the consumer’s preference, perception, and intake of the sauce were analyzed using a consumer test. In descriptive analysis, the original and sodium-reduced sauce showed similar sensory characteristics but did not differ in saltiness. In the consumer test, there were no significant differences in the overall preference levels between the two sauces. On the other hand, there were significant differences in preference and perception between nutrition teachers and general consumer groups, which were due largely to their age as well as the health and sodium-related attitudes and nutritional knowledge differences. Sodium-reduced information decreased the perceived saltiness intensity. In addition, reducing sodium intake by serving pork cutlet sauce in a bottle can be an effective strategy because this serving method increased the acceptance and induced the smaller intake of sauce.

한국과 중국은 경제발전으로 인하여 육류 소비 패턴이 지속적으로 변화해왔다. 본 연구에서는 한국과 중국의 소비자들이 육류를 구매함에 있어 구매요인의 차이가 나타나는지, 나타난다면 그 요인의 차이가 얼마나 나는지 분석하였다. 본 연구를 위해 2017년 8월 28일부터 9월 11일까지 온라인 조사 방식으로 한국과 중국 길림성 소비자를 대상으로 동일한 내용의 설문 조사를 실시하였다. 한국 설문조사에서 339부, 중국 설문조사에서 305부를 회수하여 총 644부의 설문지를 최종 분석에 사용하였다. 한․중 양국 소비자의 육류 구매요인 차를 확인하기 위하여 MANOVA분석을 이용하여 그 차이를 살펴보았다. 다음으로 Ordered Probit분석을 통해 각 육류 소비요인과 국가, 나이, 성별 등의 변수 간 차이가 있는지, 차이가 얼마인지 알아보았다. 분석결과 한국과 중국 길림성의 육류 소비요인은 마블링 요인에서만 차이 가 없는 것으로 나타났고 기타 요인에서는 차이가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. Ordered Probit분석 결과 마블링을 제외한 모든 육류요인은 양국 간에 차이가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 한국의 응답자의 경우 육류 구매 시 중국 길림성의 응답자보다 맛, 품질, 판매가격, 판매장소, 안전성을 더 중요하게 생각하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 중국 길림성의 응답자의 경우 한국의 응답자보다 브랜드를 더욱 중요하게 생각하는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 지방 대체제로 첨가된, 각기 다른 입자의 크기로 분쇄된 돈피가 유화소시지의 이화학적 성질과 저장 기간, 그리고 관능검사에 끼치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 수행되었다. 지방 대체제로 첨가된 돈피는 대조구에 첨가된 지방 12%와 동일한 수준인 지방 4%, 분쇄 돈피 8%를 T1에서는 3mm, T2에서는 5mm, T3에서는 7mm로 분쇄하여 첨가하였다. 모든 처리구들은 일반적인 냉장 온도인 4±1℃에서 0, 5, 10, 15일간 저장되며 시료로 쓰였다.첨가되는 돈피의 분쇄 입자 크기가 클수록 전단가와 경도, 검성, 씹힘성이 유의적으로 증가하였고, 전 저장구간에서 포장감량, TBARS, VBN, 씹힘성은가식권 내의 값을 유지하며 유의적으로 증가하였다. 관능검사에서는 Color에서 입자의 크기가 클수록 부정적인 영향이 있었고, Chewiness는 저장기간이 지남에 따라 유의적으로 증가하였고 입자 크기가 작을수록 유의적 으로 높은 값을 나타내었다. 실험결과 돈피를 첨가한 처리구가 대조구에 비해 Shear force, Puncture test, 관능 평가에서 우수한 평가를 받았고 저장성검사와 이화학적 성질에서도 큰 차이를 보이지 않고 모두 가식권내의 값을 유지하였다. 이는 돈피가 육가공품에서 지방이 작용하는 역할을 충분히 수행가 능하며, 좋은 평가를 얻어 지방을 대체할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Pork is a popular meat consumed in Korea. However, the consumption pattern has typically focused on preferred parts, like pork belly, which is usually broiled. This consumption pattern has increased both stocks of low fat parts and medical costs, and has thereby disturbed pork industry growth and the national health welfare. Changing the consumption patterns of preferred parts and encouraging consumption of low fat parts will improve consumers’ quality of life and also increase their benefits. Thus, this study estimated WTP (Willingness To Pay) for health funds among consumers who eat pork meat, considering the health benefits gained by consuming low fat parts and changes in preferred part consumption. The results of this study show that WTP is higher when consumers have a smaller family and a higher income; these consumers plan to increase intake of pork meat in the future and think that the promotion of low fat pork meat consumption is more important. The WTP for health funds is estimated to be 49won to 287won through Logit Model. The health benefits of low fat consumption were estimated to be 92 billion won to 539 billion won per year. Therefore, reforming low fat pork consumption not only changes the traditional consumption pattern focused on preferred parts but also leads to a variety of benefits for consumers, including health benefits.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of black carrot (Daucus carota L.) on the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of pork patties. Patties were provided with different amounts (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8%) of black carrot. Notably, the cooking loss rate of the group added with 8% black carrot was lowest (p<0.001). As the content of black carrot increased, the L value decreased and the a, b value increased. The texture analysis results showed that the hardness and chewiness to decrease as the amount of black carrot increased (p<0.05). Evaluation of consumer acceptability revealed that the 4% black carrot groups had a higher score in respect to overall preference and taste to the other groups (p<0.05). For antioxidant activities, both total phenolic compounds content and DPPH were increased (p<0.001) as the amount of added black carrot was increased. As a result, it can be concluded that adding the black carrot to patties in processing can improve antioxidant activities and quality of the patties. Considering various aspects of quality, the suitable amount is 4% of total weight.

This study is to investigate the effects of binding agents which contain sodium alginate, corn starch, carrageenan, and guar gum and on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of pork patties. The pork patty formulation was prepared with 0.5 percent of the each binding agents. Some selected properties of binding agents, such as, pH, cooking yield, shrinkage, water holding capacity, shear force, color (L*, a* and b*), and TPA were determined. The pH of pork patties containing corn starch and control was significantly same but the others were significantly difference. The cooking yield of pork patties containing sodium alginate were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05). The shrinkage of pork patties containing corn starch, carrageenan, and was significantly lower than the control (p<0.05). The water holding capacity of pork patties containing corn starch was significantly lower than the others. The shear force of pork patties containing corn starch, carrageenan, and guar gum, and were significantly lower than control. The color of pork patties containing corn starch, carrageenan, guar gum was significantly low L* and high a*. The hardness and springiness of pork patties containing sodium alginate were significantly higher than the control. The cohesiveness of pork patties containing each binding agents was significantly lower than the control. The gumminess and chewiness of pork patties containing corn starch, carrageenan, and guar gum were significantly lower than the control. Therefore, pork patties containing sodium alginate are useful for making pork patties with desirable quality characteristics.

This study investigated the changes in the physicochemical properties of soybean sprout, radish, and pork loin during frozen Bibimbab production. The qualities of soybean sprout were affected by the blanching, thawing, and cooking processes, with the blanching process particularly regarded as an important process to attribute the overall quality of the soybean sprouts in the final product. High weight loss of radish was found in the thawing and cooking processes, while the weight loss was relatively lower than that of soybean sprout. However, mixing with hot rice can be attributed for the steep decrease in shear force of the radish. For pork meat, normally thermal treatment such as mixing with hot rice and cooking manifested quality deterioration. Based on the results, mixing process appeared to be the most important process which affected the final quality of the materials. To improve the quality of final frozen Bibimbab, therefore, it was recommended to freeze the food ingredient separately from rice prior to packaging, which warranted the follow up exploration.
