improving food quality is one the major issues for the food processing industry. since food produced from fish spoils quickly, it obviously cannot be kept for an extended time. the aim of the present study was to determine the effects of sodium polyphosphate and smoking on the shelf life of fish sausage that was produced from capoeta umbla and stored at 4±1°c. therefore, we designed four groups...

the effects of modified waxy maize starch (mwms) (1–3.25%) on the sensory characteristics of 60% beef sausages were investigated by replacing the varying levels of sunflower oil or both sunflower oil and wheat flour (wf). the addition of mwms improved the red color, the palatability, and the overall acceptability compared to the control sausages. the color was medially and positively correlated...

The purpose of this study was to identify porcine-specific peptide markers from thermally processed meat that could differentiate pork from beef, chevon and chicken meat. In the initial stage, markers from tryptic digested protein of chilled, boiled and autoclaved pork were identified using LC-QTOF-MS. An MRM method was then established for verification. A thorough investigation of LC-QTOF-MS d...

The fraudulent practice of cheap meat in costly meat is common nowadays. Therefore, there is need of precise identification of the meat species. We included in our study dog meat, as it is the most easily available cheap meat for adulteration. For specific identification of origin of meat animal species, we evaluated the common meat animal species including dog meat by PCR –RFLP technique. All ...

Fish sausage is ground fish meat, or a mixture primarily of ground fish with ground pork, together with vegetable oil, permissible preservatives, seasoning and starch. It is packed in a casing and processed. It is a semi-processed food, the time and temperature of processing of the product being not sufficient o kill all micro organisms. Thermotolerant and spore-forming bacteria survive the pro...

Żochowska-Kujawska J., Lachowicz K., Sobczak M., Bienkiewicz G., Tokarczyk G., Kotowicz M., Machcińska E. (2016): Compositional characteristics and nutritional quality of European beaver (Castor fiber L.) meat and its utility for sausage production. Czech J. Food Sci., 34: 87–92. The composition of European beaver (Castor fiber L.) meat and its utility for sausage production were investigated. ...

A dry fermented sausage (chorizo de Pamplona) was elaborated with the simultaneous addition of a lipase (Novozym 677BG) and a protease (Flavourzyme) and ripened during 21 days, in contrast to the control without enzymes and ripened during 35 days. Faster and more intense lipolytic and proteolytic activities were observed in the modified sausage, despite its shorter maturation time. At the end o...

Pork sausages were prepared with lean pork meat, fat from different sources [backfat (BF), corn oil (CO) or flaxseed oil (FO); 10% of lean meat], NaCl (2%), and ice water (10%). The emulsified meat batters were stuffed into casings (3 cm in diameter) and cooked to an internal temperature of 72°C. Cooked sausages were sliced and vacuum- or aerobic-packaged individually. Sausages were irradiated ...

The ripening durations and ingredients for the Salchichon sausages were modified to increase pork rear leg consumption by Korean consumers. The salchichon, a ripened pork sausage, was produced to evaluate the efficacy of two different ripening durations with and without rosemary powder on salchichon sausage quality, and the treatments were: i) 45 days of ripening without rosemary, ii) 60 days o...
