In this study, the quality of sow pork was compared with commercial pork to evaluate sow pork as raw meat material for processing. Texture, cooking loss, color, pH, water, lipid, fatty acid, volatile profiles, and sensory characteristics of 3 parts (tenderloin, loin, hind leg) of sow and commercial pork were analyzed. In texture analysis, sow pork had significantly higher shear force compared to commercial pork (tenderloin: sow 143.19 N, commercial 107.79 N; loin: sow 173.62 N, commercial 120.65 N; hind leg: sow 211.76 N, commercial 112.80 N) (p<0.05). There were significant differences in cooking loss, color, and pH, but they differed by part. A total of 49 volatile compounds were identified, and there were significant differences in 22 volatile compounds. In the case of hexanal (one of the warmed-over flavors), which was detected on the largest scale, the relative concentration was significantly higher in the tenderloin of commercial pork (p<0.05). On the other hand, no differences were reported by sensory analysis for hardness, off-flavor, juiciness, oiliness, appearance, taste, and acceptability between cooked sow and commercial pork. This study provides a database on the quality of sow pork by parts, which is considerable to develop proceed meat products using sow meat.

This study examined the effects of hot deboning and the irradiation of raw pork on the physicochemical properties of pork sausages. Pigs were deboned with a carcass (loin surfaces) temperature of 5℃ (cold) or 15℃ (hot). Each deboned raw pork loins were then irradiated at 0 kGy or 4 kGy. Emulsion-type sausages were prepared from each treated meat with other ingredients including fat, ice, salt, phosphate, and seasoning powder. Then sausage products were analyzed for their physiochemical properties and microbial spoilage up to 10 days. Emulsion stability of sausage products with hot deboning was better than the cold carcass up to three days. Sausage products with irradiated hot carcasses showed less cooking loss than from non-irradiated carcasses on day 10. Hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of the sausages decreased significantly with increasing storage time for all sausage products (p<0.05), but the sausage products with irradiated hot carcasses showed a smaller reduction compared with non-irradiated. Lipid oxidation was not significantly different in the sausage products with hot or cold deboning (p>0.05), but the sausage products from non-irradiated meats showed changes from 0.43 to 1.59 (MDA mg/kg of meat) in 10 days (p<0.5). Total plate count and E. coli count were significantly lower in the sausage products from irradiated meat (p<0.05). Finally, irradiating hot deboned meat at 4 kGy can be an excellent alternative for producing raw meat for sausages with promising microbiological and physicochemical properties.

Post-slaughtering storage of pork meat is important to improve the flavor and texture profile. Although irradiation of meat improves the keeping qualities of red meat, less work was done on the effect of quality in irradiated pork leg meat during post-slaughtering storage. Therefore, this study was done to compare low dosages of single beam irradiation treated pork leg meat on eating quality parameters over the nontreated meat stored at different storage temperatures. Freshly slaughter pig carcasses were brought to the irradiation unit for treatment. Pork leg meat was treated at 2 kGy with single beam. Treated (2 kGy) and non-treated pork leg meat were kept in three different temperatures as 2, 10 and 25°C for 1, 3 and 5 days and analyzed for cooking loss, shear force, color and nitrogenous flavor compounds. Cooking loss in day 5 in irradiated pork leg (30.29) was significantly lower than the control (33.27) (p<0.05). Shear force of treated (1.93) and non-treated (1.29) pork leg meat after day 5 had significant difference (p<0.05). “L*” and “b*” values of pork leg meat had significant difference at day 5 compared non treated leg meat (p<0.05) whereas the “a*” value was increased with storage time and temperature. Hypoxanthine level was significantly lower in pork leg meat at day 5 in treated (16.07) and non-treated (24.59) meats at 25°C (p<0.05) whereas the changes in AMP, IMP and Inosine was not significantly difference (p>0.05). As conclusion, post-slaughtering storage and irradiation with single beam of 2 kGy could ensure the meat quality of leg pork at even higher storage temperatures, with cooking loss, tenderness, flavor and the color which will be benefited in the processing industry.

This study evaluated the quality and antioxidant activities of pork patties after adding Cirsium nipponicum powder in a ratio of 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%, and the potential of Cirsium nipponicum as a functional food. The moisture content increased with an increase in the Cirsium nipponicum powder content while the pH, cooking loss rate, diameter loss rate decreased. The L and b values decreased with increase in the Cirsium nipponicum powder content while the a value increased; this trend was observed before and after heating the patties. The hardness, chewiness, and gumminess increased with increase in the Cirsium nipponicum powder content. Consumer acceptability test revealed that the 2% Cirsium nipponicum powder group had a higher score than the other groups in respect to color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptance. Notably, as the Cirsium nipponicum powder content increased, there was an increase in the antioxidant activities; increased total pheonlic, flavonoid, DPPH radical scavenging activity and ABTS radical scavenging activity. Based on the present study results, adding 2% of Cirsium nipponicum powder into pork patties achieved the best functionality and sensory qualities.

본 연구는 정수압 처리와 초음파 처리가 20일 숙성기간 동안 돈육의 삼겹살과 목살 부위의 품질특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 조사하였다. 다양한 품질특성을 관찰한 결과 정수압에서 숙성하고 초음파 처리한 돈육은 부위별로 효과의 차이는 있지만, 품질향상에 효과적인 것으로 나타났으며 또한, 초음파 처리했을 때 특히 고기의 연도와 관계가 있는 pH, 보수력, 경도 품질을 높이는 것으로 관찰되었다. 본 연구에서 이용한 저온 정수압 숙성 및 초음파 처리공정은 낮은 온도에서 돈육을 빠른 시간안에 숙성하는데 적용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 착즙이나 추출 후 폐기되는 복분자(Rubus coreanus) 부산물을 사료자원으로 급여한 버크셔 암컷과 거세돈의 육질특성을 알아보고자 실시하였다. 시험 돼지는 Berkshire 품종 총 60두를 암수 구분하여 각 15두씩 임의 배치하였고, 복분자 부산물을 급여하지 않은 대조구와 복분자 부산물을 전체 사료의 0.3% 수준으로 출하 전 60일간 급여한 처리구(RC)로 분리하였다. 육질분석을 위하여 도축 후 예비 냉각한 좌반도체 등심 부위를 채취하여 일반성분, 이화학적 육질특성, 지방산 및 항산화 활성을 분석하였다. 일반성분은 대조구와 RC간의 유의적 차이가 없었고, 육색에서 거세돈육의 명도(L*) 값에서만 RC구에서 대조구 보다 낮은 값을 나타냈다(p<0.05). 등심육의 pH와 보수력은 RC 급여에 의한 유의적 차이가 없었으나, 전단력에서는 RC에서 유의적으로 높은 값을 나타냈다(p<0.05). TBARS 수치는 거세돈육의 RC가 대조구에 비해 낮은 경향을 나타냈고, DPPH radical 소거활성에서도 거세돈육의 RC가 대조구보다 높은 항산화능을 나타냈으나 유의적인 차이는 없었고 이는 성별에 의한 차이가 큰 것으로 판단된다. 근내지방 함량과 지방산 조성은 RC 급여에 의한 영향보다는 성별에 의한 차이가 뚜렷하게 나타났으며, RC 급여에 따른 항산화 특성 패턴이 다르게 나타난 것도 위와 같은 이유인 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of emulsion-type pork sausage manufactured with various levels of Eutrema Japonicum (E. Japonicum)(1, 2, and 3%). The crude fat contents of samples containing 2 and 3% E. Japonicum were 27.46-28.38%, significantly higher than those in the control (p<0.05). The cooking yields samples containing 1 and 2% E. Japonicum were 74.99-75.54%, significantly higher than those in the control (p<0.05). Water holding capacities (WHC) of the samples containing 1% and 2% E. Japonicum were 92.22-92.26% significantly higher than those in the control (p<0.05). while the water losses of sample containing 1% E. Japonicum group was 16.41%, significantly lower than those in the control (p<0.05). And fat losses samples containing 1, 2, and 3% E. Japonicum were 0.03-0.64% significantly lower than those in the control (p<0.05) in emulsion stability. Additionally, viscosity increased with increasing E. Japonicum concentration of E. Japonicum. Texture profile analysis (TPA) showed increased with increasing E. Japonicum concentration for hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in the samples containing 2 and 3% E. Japonicum were 0.64-0.69 mg MDA/kg significantly lower than those in the control and 1% E. Japonicum group (p<0.05). These results indicate that emulsion-type pork sausage containing 2% E. Japonicum was increasing WHC, emulsion stability, cooking yield, and was decreasing TBARS compared to other E. Japonicum groups. Therefore, emulsion-type pork sausage containing 2% E. Japonicum is high qualified.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
