Abstract This work aimed to examine the influence of the storage period on the content of toxic elements (As, Cd, Pb, and Hg), in five types of canned meat products, which are regularly used in the Serbian Armed Forces. Cans of beef goulash (BG), pork ragout (PR), spam (SP), liver pate (LP), and meatballs in tomato sauce (MB), produced according to military standards, and stored under regular conditions (temperature up to max 25 °C and relative humidity up to max 75%), were analyzed in this research. Meat products were made according to the special military requirements, packed in tinplate cans, and stored for up to 6 years. The highest average contents of toxic elements were found to be 10.00 µg/kg for arsenic in BG, 35.91 µg/kg for cadmium in LP, 15.04 µg/kg for mercury in PR, and 8.00 µg/kg for lead in PR. The storage period did not significantly affect the level of toxic elements, although higher concentrations were found in samples stored for more than two years. The influence of raw materials, spices, and additives on the level of toxic elements in some meat products was also examined. None of the samples contained toxic elements at levels exceeding the currently maximum permitted levels. The consumption of this type of food represents a small risk to human health because the exposure of soldiers to toxic elements, calculated as weekly intake, is far below legal PTWI/TWI limits, established by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and European Food Safety Authority (EFSA).

The article examines the technology of cooking meat by autoclaving while preserving the chemical properties of the product. Autoclaving has been shown to be one of the main technological steps in canned meat. Sterilization of canned meat is a heat treatment of the product, which ensures the death of microflora to prevent microbiological spoilage at temperate temperatures (15-30oC), and if necessary at higher temperatures, and safety, which guarantees the microbiological indicators of the use of canned food for food. Sterilize meat at temperatures above 100o C, most often at temperatures up to 120o C. It has been determined that sterilization of meat in an autoclave determines the preservation of nutritional value, organoleptic properties, harmless to the consumer and creates the necessary prerequisites for long-term preservation of the quality of canned meat products. The technology of cooking meat is reduced to the choice of parameters (temperature and duration) of heating, which ensure maximum destruction of the microflora with minimal loss of nutritional value. Sterilization is carried out in autoclaves of periodic action. Banks with the product are loaded into the baskets of the autoclave, lowered into the autoclave, seal the device, heated to the desired temperature, withstand the required time, then release the pressure, cool and unload.

Main problem: Modern manufacturers of products, by the current market conditions, should take care that their products are competitive and attractive in consumer terms, but also the economic efficiency of its production is important. In this regard, in the production of food products, including meat, the use of various additives that allow to make products with more pronounced organoleptic properties, increased shelf life, increased nutritional and biological value are used. Analyzing the products presented on the market, it was revealed that the use of food additives of chemical origin is more than common among today's manufacturers, because they allow producing products that are lower in cost by improving the taste and aroma properties of the product, using low-quality raw materials or replacing natural raw materials with artificial components. Despite the widespread use of such additives, they still remain not sufficiently studied. Purpose: It is necessary to revise the traditional range of meat products in the country by direction of increasing the volume of production of products from natural and chopped meat with a variety of attractive organoleptic characteristics. It is a modern principle of organization and management of food industry enterprises. Methods: In this regard, the use of new natural ingredients in the production of meat sausage products becomes an urgent task. Considering the field of food technologies, it should be noted that currently there is a tendency to increase the consumption of food enriched with natural additives. Results and their significance: Based on our research, result was obtained showing that chemical food additives negatively affect the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract. As a result, it was decided to develop a new type of sausage products using natural additives, such as rosemary and blueberry fruits. This article provides a justification for their use in the production of sausage products as an alternative to various chemical food additives that can have a negative impact on the human body.

When creating meat products, one of the main indicators is the biological value of the product. The biological value of proteins depends on the degree of their assimilation, in animal proteins is greater than in vegetable. More than 90% of amino acids are absorbed from animal proteins in the intestine. An important indicator of the biological value of proteins is their attack by digestive enzymes - the property to be hydrolyzed with the participation of enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract.Enzymatic methods for determining the biological value of a protein are one of the simplest and at the same time objective methods for determining its ability to be broken down by proteolytic enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract.The article presents a study on the biological value of minced meat semi-finished products. For the studies we used chopped semi-finished products (cutlets) control sample and three test samples with partial introduction into the formulation of food additives based on animal and vegetable raw materials - 0.5 %, 0.75 % and 1.0 %, respectively. Hydration of the additive is 1:15. The food supplement contains g / 100 g: sodium alginate - 60, whey protein - 16, soy fiber - 24. To determine the biological value of the products by the enzymatic method used a device for hydrolysis of proteins. The essence of the method is a six-hour hydrolysis by enzymes of a sample of the finished product. The first stage is fermentation with pepsin (3 hours), the second stage is trypsin (3 hours). With hourly selection of hydrolysis products to determine the degree of digestibility at a certain stage of the study. It is proved that the addition to the recipe of chopped semi-finished food mixture is advisable, as it allows to obtain chopped semi-finished product with better digestibility. The digestibility of the experimental samples was slightly higher than the control. The digestibility index for control was – 69 %, and for experimental – 68-74 %. Therefore, according to research, we can say about the feasibility of using additives in the production of minced meat semi-finished products with a share of replacement of basic raw materials from 8 % to 16 %.

Consumers associate the finished meat products with negative health effects that are connected with a high content of saturated fat; food additives and carcinogenic substances. Consumer demand for functional products with a reduced amount of saturated fats is growing. The purpose of scientific research was justification the functional properties of sausage bread manufactured using protein-fatty emulsions based on flour made from flax-LM-98 Raziol; Ural. In the recipe of sausage bread 15% of fat and meat raw materials were replaced by the protein-fatty emulsion based on flax flour. It is established: addition of emulsion contributes to a more pronounced flavor and aroma, attractive appearance and drawing on a cut of meat products. Analysis of the chemical composition meat products showed an increase in fat content on 12.7-23.7%; soluble and insoluble dietary fibers concentration; calcium and phosphorus content. The experiment proved the high biological value of lipid fraction in sausages containing flax flour. Content of polyunsaturated fatty acids increased by 15.8–29.2%, concentration of (-3 fatty acids increased 3.7–7.7 times. The ratio of (-3:(-6 fatty acids in samples with flax flour of Ural grade amounted to 1:1.3, consumption of 50 g sausages satisfies the daily need in (-3 fatty acids by 60.8%. The ratio of (-3:(-6 fatty acids in samples with flax flour of Raziol grade amounted to 1:3.3; consumption of 50 g sausages satisfies the daily need in (-3 by 29.5%. Sausage bread containing 5.6% flax flour Ural and Raziol varieties should be attributed to functional foods, due to the high content of functional component and the ability to satisfy more than 15% of the daily need for (-3 fatty acids.

Investigations were carried out in 6 meat processing plants in Poland on the effect of a short storage period on the results of the incubation test of various canned pasteurized meat products. From the daily consignments, 1% of the cans was reserved within 1–3 d of production and incubated at 37°C for 3 d. The remaining cans of the consignments were stored at around 8°C. When spoilage resulted in one or more of the incubated cans from any consignment, about 2% of other cans from that consignment were taken, and the incubation test was repeated. These later incubation tests were initiated 7–10 d after the date of production. From among 4,322 cans subjected to first incubation test 980 (22.67%) produced swells but in the repeated incubation carried out on 8,290 cans only 347 (4.18%) became swollen. It is concluded that the bacteria responsible for spoilage of canned pasteurized meat products may disappear or lose their ability to spoil these products during the storage under refrigeration.
