Physicochemical properties, lipid oxidation and sensory attributes of pork patties with lupin protein concentrate stored in vacuum, modified atmosphere and frozen state

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of an olive extract (OE) on the physicochemical and microbiological characteristics, lipid oxidation and volatile compounds of beef patties stored both aerobically and under modified atmosphere packaging for 15 days at 4 °C. The antioxidant and antimicrobial effects of the OE were compared to those of sulfite. Four formulations were elaborated according to the antioxidant and dose used: without antioxidant, C; 300 mg potassium metabisulfite/kg product, S; 150 mg OE/kg product, OE1; and 250 mg of OE/kg product, OE2. The parameters analyzed were pH, water activity, color, lipid oxidation (TBARS and volatile organic compounds: hexanal, 2-pentyl-furan, 1-pentanol, 2,3-octanedione and nonanal, 1-octen-2-ol) and total viable counts. The OE delayed the loss of the bright red color of the patties and reduced the lipid oxidation in both types of packaging compared to the control patty. Sulfite was the most effective antioxidant for inhibition of the total viable counts. An OE could be used as a natural antioxidant to delay the lipid oxidation of meat without negatively affecting its physicochemical properties.

Pork Patties

The effects of walnut leaf powder (WLP), walnut leaf extract (WLE) and cherry stem extract (CSE) on the oxidative and color stability of cooked pork patties were determined and compared with 0.01% butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and control (without antioxidant). Instrumental color, pH, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and sensory attributes were determined on manufactured patties initially (time 0) and after 5, 10 and 15 days of refrigerated storage. Addition of walnut leaf extract to pork patties was more effective than cherry stem extract in controlling lipid oxidation and color changes during cold storage, in agreement with results from the in vitro antioxidant activity. The natural additives significantly (p<0.05) increased phenolic content and antioxidant activity in cooked pork patties as compared to control and BHT treated samples, throughout the storage period. After 15 days, the TBARS values were significantly (p<0.05) reduced from 3.01 in control patties to 2.43, 1.58, 1.83 and 1.19 mg malondialdehyde per kg samples in patties with BHT, WLE, CSE and WLP, respectively. Addition of extracts showed positive effects on sensory attributes, the highest scores being achieved by WLP treated samples. ********* In press - Online First.
