The aim of this study was to evaluate beef quality traits including pH, water holding capacity, cooking loss, meat colour, and Warner-Bratzler shear force in dry-aged beef and to determine the most favorable ageing time based on beef quality parameters and consumer acceptability. In this respect, longissimus dorsi samples were obtained from Simmental bulls and stored for an ageing period up to 21-days, and thus, the beef quality evaluation was performed at 0-day, 7-day, 14-day, and 21-day of the experimental period. Results revealed that the lowest shear force value was observed in beef samples on day-14 whereas the lowest pH value was determined in samples on day 21. Moreover, water holding capacity and beef colour values were significantly differentiated based on dry-ageing (P<0.05). In sensory panel evaluation, a significant difference is found only in meat colour rating (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between ageing periods and cooking loss. The most important technical point is that increasing dry-ageing time from 14 to 21 days did not desirably affect quality traits and sensory scores. Hence, dry-ageing for 14 days seemed to be the most economically efficient application. Taken altogether, the present results suggest that the potential for use of dry-ageing should be considered as an alternative method to produce high-quality beef with respect to the optimum ageing process.

The objective of the study is to evaluate meat quality from Ile de France lamb fed diets supplemented with sunflower seeds and vitamin E. Thirty-two lamb weighing initially 15kg were housed in individual stalls and slaughtered when body weight reached 32kg. The treatments consisted of four experimental diets: D1) sugarcane + concentrate without sunflower seeds; D2) sugarcane + concentrate with sunflower seeds; D3) sugarcane + concentrate without sunflower seeds plus 1000mg vitamin E kg-1 diet dry matter (DM); and D4) sugarcane + concentrate with sunflower seeds and 1000mg vitamin E kg-1 diet DM. The parameters temperature, pH, color, cooking loss, shear force and water holding capacity were determined at maturation times of 0, 7 and 14 days on the Longissimus dorsi muscle. Qualitative characteristics of the meat were not affected by the sunflower seed combined with vitamin E diet; however, pH 24 hours was affected (P<0.05) by the sunflower seed combined with vitamin E diet. Cooking loss was not significantly influenced (P>0.05) by diet or maturation times. On the other hand, shear force and water holding capacity were significantly affected (P<0.05) by the treatments. The use of vitamin E resulted in lamb meat with higher water holding capacity. Maturation time influenced the parameters pH, color and shear force. Lamb meat that matured for 7 days displayed the lowest shear force.

Our objective was to evaluate carcass traits and meat quality of quails from different strains and both sexes pertaining to three breeding-improvement programs. Quails from seven meat-type strains (UFV1, UFV2, UFV3, EV1, EV2, LF1 and LF2) and from one egg-laying (Japanese quail) strain (LAY) were slaughtered at 35 days of age. A completely randomised 8 (strain) × 2 (sex) factorial design was used for data analysis. Bodyweight, hot carcass weight and breast (musculus pectoralis major and m. pectoralis minor) and legs (thigh and drumstick) weights and their respective yields were determined. Ultimate pH, colour measurements, water-holding capacity, cooking loss and shear force were assessed. No difference in ultimate pH, shear force and hue was observed. The UFV3 strain had the greatest bodyweight at slaughter. The UFV3 strain had the greatest hot carcass weight in both sexes. The heaviest breasts were observed in both sexes of the UFV3 strain and in males of the UFV2 strain. The UFV3 quails had greater leg weight. The hot carcass yields of meat-type strains were greater than that of the LAY strain. The UFV3 and LAY females furnished a greater breast yield than did male quails. For males, the UFV1 strain had a greater yield of breast than that of LAY quails. The LAY quails presented the greatest yields of leg. The LAY quails had the least luminance, and the greatest water-holding capacity, cooking loss, red and yellow intensity, and chroma. In summary, meat obtained from meat-type strains had a greater water-holding capacity, lower cooking loss and greater luminance than that of the LAY strain. In addition, the meat-type strains grew appreciably faster, but the difference in yields of breast and leg meat between meat and layer strains was small. We conclude that meat-type strains, especially the UFV3, are more appropriate for enterprises focussed on meat production.

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of genotype and the energy concentration in the diet on the sensorial and chemical quality of lamb meat. It was evaluated samples from 18 Morada Nova animals, 18 Santa Inez animals, and 18 Santa Inez x Dorper crossbred animals, totalizing 54 animals. The animals were kept with two diets, with energy concentrations of 10.46 and 12.56 MJ ME/kg, respectively, and slaughtered at 30 kg average weight. It was determined contents of protein, moisture, fat and ash, as well as cooking loss, water-holding capacity, shear force, and sensorial attributes of flavour, firmness and juiciness of the meat. Genotype influenced the chemical composition of lamb meat because animals of Morada Nova breed presented the highest moisture content, and Santa Inez x Dorper crossbred showed the highest protein percentage; however, there was no variation in the sensorial attributes of lamb meat of these three genotypes. The diet with the highest energy concentration provides meat with higher juiciness.

Twenty growing crossbred male lambs (? chios. ? ossimi and ? chios. ? ossimi) of 15.25 ? 2.00 kg initial average body weight and three months old were divided into four groups. All groups were fed on concentrate feed mixture plus 1% of live body weight wheat straw for 169 days. Four levels (zero, 200g, 400g and 600g) of leucaena hay were used. Final weight and carcass traits were evaluated. Color (L, a, b), proximate composition, pH, acidity, expressible water, water holding capacity, cooking loss, amino acid and minerals contents of meat were determined. Sensory evaluation of cooked meat was also evaluated. The results revealed that, Hindquarter, shoulder, and sets weight were significantly (p ? 0.05) different. Moisture, protein, fat and ash content of fresh meat were ranged from 73.72 to 76.23%, 20.06 to 20.80 %, 2.41 to 4.12% and 1.01 to 1.08%, respectively. Expressible water, water holding capacity and pH were significantly (p ? 0.05) different. No significant (p ? 0.05) differences were found in color (L, a, b), acidity and cooking loss of meat. Amino acids and minerals contents of all meat samples were varied. Cooked meat of group four had the highest scores of tenderness, juiciness, flavor and over all acceptability 4.6, 4.5, 4.4 and 4.5, respectively. This study suggested that the leucaena hay is suitable for lamb feeding. Produced lamb meat had high chemical and sensory quality.

Abstract. The research objective was to compare the nutritive value and some functional properties of duck leg muscles from different flocks. A total of 80 drakes out of three conservative flocks (cross-breeds Pekin type – SB, Miniduck – K2, Pekin originated from Danish Pekin duck – P8) and one maternal breeding strain (P66) aged seven weeks, were used for comparison. The content of protein, lipids, moisture, essential amino acids, fatty acids and cholesterol were estimated. The investigation of functional properties has covered: the determination of the colour parameters – L*, a* b*, colour difference between individual flocks, total haem pigments’ content, sensory evaluation of raw muscles’ colour intensity in 10 point scale; pH24; water holding capacity; cooking loss and shear force. Comparing the basic chemical and amino acid composition, cholesterol content and profile of fatty acids, it could be concluded that the P66 leg muscles coming from a selected breeding strain, are the most favourable from the nutritional point of view. It is evident too, that muscles from all the examined flocks have been characterized by a high nutritional value. Taking into consideration the functional properties, it was concluded that the muscles from the investigated flocks varied in colour and analysed traits. The ducks of K2 had the best functional properties. The advantages of K2 in comparison to the other ducks are: darker colour typical of waterfowl meat, lower cooking loss, higher water holding capacity and lower shear force.

Abstract This research aims to evaluate the use of different filler levels of taro meal on the physical quality of chicken patties containing red beans (Vigna angularis). Patties produced from chicken meat with the ratio of red bean flour and taro flour as filler substitution for tapioca flour are 15:0 (CP0), 15:3 (CP1), 10:0 (CP2), 10:3 (CP3), 5:0 (CP4), and 5:3 (CP5). The analysis showed a significant difference in the tenderness (P<0.01), the value of pH, cooking loss, and water holding capacity (P<0.05) of patties. The addition of taro flour can increase the tenderness value of chicken patties. Reducing the amount of red beans resulted in a decrease in the pH value of chicken patties, but the increase in the use of taro meal did not result in a difference in the pH value. The highest cooking loss was achieved with the use of 5% red beans without taro meal. The highest water holding capacity of patties produced was obtained with a ratio of red bean and taro meal of 5:3. The conclusion is that adding 10% red beans and 3% taro flour red beans increased the physical quality of chicken patties and can be accepted by consumers.

The objective of the experiment study was to determine the effect of canary shell liquid smoke on the chemical, physical and sensory qualities of beef stored at room temperature. Beef samples were dipped in liquid smoke solution with the concentration of 0, 4, 8, and 12% (v/v) during 15 minutes and then stored for 0,2, and 4 days at room temperature. Each treatment was carried out three times and the variables measured were water, phenol and acid content, pH, water-holding capacity, cooking loss and sensory properties of samples. Data on chemical and physical qualities were analyzed using analysis of variance (Completely Randomized Design/CRD) with factorial 4x3. The sensory properties were analyzed by a non parametric h-test. The results showed that liquid smoke concentration up to 12% significantly (p<0.05) increased water holding capacity and cooking loss of samples. Storage time up to four days significantly (p<0.05) increased its pH value, cooking loss, whereas water-holding capacity was decreased. The meat sensory test showed that flavor and slimming rate were affected significantly (p<0.05) by liquid smoke. There was no interaction between liquid smoke concentration and storage time. In conclusion, the addition of liquid smoke up to 12% increased phenol and acid content, while the physical quality of meat has decreased. Quality of beef stored up to 4 days showed a decreased of quality such as pH, water-holding capacity, cooking loss, and sensory meat.

Mutton samples (m. longissimus thoracis et lumborum; LL) originating from 30 Istrian ewes were used to determine EZ drip loss (DL), thaw loss (TL), cooking loss (CL), and Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF) in relation to age at slaughter and different post mortem aging periods (1, 7, and 14 days). DL was measured according to the EZ method after storage periods of 24 and 48 h. Determination of TL, CL, and WBSF was performed for samples aged prior to freezing for 1, 7, and 14 days. A significantly lower TL (P<0.05) was observed in the mutton samples that aged for 1 day (7.76%) prior to freezing compared to the mutton samples that aged for 7 days (9.91%) and 14 days (9.32%) prior to freezing. The WBSF revealed significant differences between the aging periods (P<0.05), indicating that mutton aged 7 (33.92 N) and 14 (28.23 N) days showed greater tenderness than mutton with a shorter aging period (43.89 N). Considering that there was no significant difference between mutton aged for 7 and 14 days in water-holding capacity and shear force, there is no reasonable reason for aging mutton longer than 7 days. Therefore, further research into shorter aging periods, the sensory quality of mutton, and its acceptability by consumers is needed.
