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.
