This study includes the investigation of the chemical properties such as pH value anda*-value, sensorial evaluations, residual nitrite and the oxidation level of Chinese-style sausagered sausage, which have been produced by both reducing the nitrite level ( 50mg/kg, 100mg/kg and 150mg/kg) and adding tomato powder ( 0%, 2% and 4%). According to the results, 100mg/kg of nitrite together with 2% tomato powder is better. Then the sausages produced with 100mg/kg nitrite and 2% tomato powder, along with sausage which produced with only 150mg/kg of nitrite are stored at 4 °C for 45 days. It was observed that addition of 2% of tomato powder increased degradation of nitrite and decreased the level of oxidation. This study provides a potential solution for nitrite substitute in meat products.

Purpose The purpose of this paper was to explore the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of locally available herbs, namely, Bacopa monnieri in enhancing the shelf life of chicken nuggets. Design/methodology/approach Meat products are highly vulnerable to spoilage due to their excessive fats and protein content. Therefore, chicken nuggets incorporated with 1, 2 and 3 per cent Bacopa monnieri extracts and control chicken nuggets, were studied to explore the potency of this locally available herb on oxidative stability and storage quality of chicken nuggets on the 0,7th,14th and the 21st day at the refrigerated storage (4 ± 1°C). Findings Extracts of Bacopa monnieri were prepared and optimally incorporated in the chicken nuggets. Chicken nuggets prepared with 2 per cent of Bacopa monnieri were adjudged as the best among all based on sensory attributes. Extracts of Bacopa monnieri-incorporated nuggets were safe for consumption until 21 days of refrigerated storage (4 ± 1°C), based upon the power of hydrogen (pH), free fatty acid (FFA), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), microbiological profile and sensory evaluation of the chicken nuggets. Practical implications Two per cent of Bacopa monnieri extracts’ incorporation in the chicken nuggets successfully improved the oxidative stability and storage quality of chicken nuggets and, therefore, can be commercially exploited. Social implications The Bacopa monnieri herb is commonly available in the Jammu region of Jammu and Kashmir state in the Indian Republic; hence, it can be used in its extract form in meat products, to make the products function with enhanced shelf life. Originality/value The addition of 2 per cent extracts of Bacopa monnieri in the chicken nuggets successfully improved the oxidative stability and its storage quality during the refrigerated (4 ± 1°C) storage. Therefore, it can be commercially exploited to improve the storage quality for longer duration of the meat food without adversely affecting the sensory quality of the products.

Purpose Pomegranate rind has been reported to have strong antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The study was conducted to evaluate the possibility of using pomegranate rind extract as an efficient alternative to synthetic antioxidants and preservatives in fat-rich meat products, which are highly susceptible to lipid oxidation. Design/methodology/approach Tabak-Maaz, a fat-rich meat product, was used as a model system and treated with different concentrations of pomegranate rind extract (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 per cent) and aerobically packaged within low-density polyethylene pouches and assessed for lipid oxidative stability and storage quality under refrigerated (4 to 1°C) conditions. The products were evaluated for various physicochemical, microbiological and sensory parameters at regular intervals of 0, 7, 14 and 21 days. Findings Pomegranate rind extract showed a significant (p < 0.05) effect on the lipid oxidative stability, as the treated products exhibited significantly (p < 0.05) lower TBARS (mg malonaldehyde/kg) values. A significant (p < 0.05) effect was also observed on the microbiological characteristics of the products, as treated products showed significantly lower values for microbial and yeast and mould counts and for free fatty-acid (% oleic acid) values. Sensory parameters showed significant (p < 0.05) decreasing trend for both control as well as treated products throughout the period of storage; however, significantly (p < 0.05) higher scores were observed for pomegranate rind extract-treated products when compared to the control. Originality/value Pomegranate rind extract successfully improved the lipid oxidative stability and storage quality of the products during refrigerated (4 ± 1°C) storage and may be commercially exploited by the meat industry as an efficient alternative without adversely affecting the sensory quality of the products.

The study aimed to assess the effect of herbal additions with antioxidant properties (pepper, thyme and oregano) on the microbiological and oxidative stability as well as the sensory quality of minced poultry meat. Meatballs treatments without additives and treatments with the addition of three types of spices in two forms—dry spices and industrial extracts were examined. Popular seasoning additives of oregano (Origanum vulgare), thyme (Thymus vulgaris) and black pepper (Piper nigrum) at 0.3% of dry herbal or 0.003% as industrial extract were added to minced meat. The microbiological, chemical and sensory tests were performed at specified times and storage temperature. Based on the studied criteria, products maintained constant and adequate quality by up to 10 days while stored in 4 °C. In the case of all tested samples, the overall sensory quality began to deteriorate after 10 days of storage. The preservative role of herbs and extracts in meat products during processing and storage was observed. Oregano and black pepper in both forms maintained good microbial quality and showed their inhibitory effects on the growth of psychrotrophic bacteria. It was observed that dried herbs revealed a stronger antioxidant effect than additives in the form of extracts. The studied dried herbs played an antioxidant, antimicrobial and preservative role in meat products during processing and storage.

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.
