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.

본 연구는 오존수 침수처리가 소와 돼지 부산물의 미생물학적 안전성 및 품질특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보고자 실시하였다. 미생물학적 안전성 및 품질평가를 위하여 총균 및 대장균수, 육색, 가열감량, 지방산패도를 측정하였으며, 처리구 설정은 처리하지 않은 대조구(Control)와 일반수돗물(10℃)로30분간 침수처리한 처리구 1(T1), 오존수(1.0ppm, 10℃)에 10분간 침수처리한 처리구 2(T2), 오존수에 20분간 침수처리한 처리구 3(T3) 및 오존수에 30분간 침수처리한 처리구 4(T4)로 분류하였다. 소 및 돼지의 간, 소창의 가열감량은 모든 처리구에서 유의적인 차이가 없었으며(p>0.05), 간보다는 소창에서 높은 가열감량을 보였다. 육색은 소의 간과 소창에서는 오존수 20 또는 30분 침수 처리시 황색도 값을 감소시키나, 명도 및 적색도 값에서 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았다(p>0.05). 지방산패도 측정 결과, 돼지 소창의 경우 일반수돗물 및 오존수 침지 처리시 대조구에 비해 낮은 지방산패도 값을 나타내었으며 오존수 침지 처리시 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다(p<0.05). 소 간의 경우 대조구에 비해 모든 처리구에서 유의적으로 높은 지방산패도 값을 보였으며 일반수돗물로 침지한 T1에 비해 오존수 침지시 낮은 지방산패도 값을 나타내었다. 총균 및 대장균수는 저장기간이 증가할수록 모든 처리구에서 유의적으로 증가하며(p<0.05), 대조구 및 T1에 비해 오존수 침지처리구에서 유의적으로 낮은 총균 및 대장균수를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 이상의 결과를 통해 오존수 침지처리는 축육부산물의 품질특성 저하 없이 미생물로부터 안전성 확보가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

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.

This study was performed to examine the quality and antioxidant activity of pork ham with various levels of black garlic extracts. Pork ham manufactured from black garlic extracts with 15 brix (1% (H1), 1.5% (H2), 2% (H3)) and 30 brix (0.2% (H4), 0.5% (H5), 1% (H6) were stored for 28 days at and analyzed with an interval of 7 days. In the sensory evaluation, the garlic odor was increased as the garlic extract adding level larger, whereas color, flavor, juiciness, texture and acceptability were not showed significant differences. The pH values of pork products were increased as the level of black garlic extracts increased. The shear force value of groups (H4~H6) with the addition of 30 brix extracts addition were significantly higher than those groups with 15 brix extracts addition (H1~H3) throughout the storage period. Furthermore, the TBARS (thiobarbutric acid reactive substance) content of the pork ham containing various levels of black garlic extract were lower than that of the control group as storage period increased. Thus, black garlic extracts have a potential application for the pork products to inhibit of lipid oxidation.
