Ground pork containing 0, 1, 2, or 3% rice bran fiber was prepared. pH increased as the amount of rice bran fiber added increased (p<0.05) but decreased during storage. The lightness and redness values of the raw ground pork decreased with the addition of rice bran fiber, and ground pork containing 3% rice bran fiber had the highest yellowness value during early storage (p<0.05). Moreover, adding rice bran fiber was not associated with color stability during storage. Samples containing 2 or 3% rice bran fiber had improved cooking loss, hardness, gumminess, and chewiness. Furthermore, rice bran fiber enhanced tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability on a sensory evaluation. These physico-chemical properties were maintained to the final storage period. The best results were obtained with ground pork containing 2 or 3% rice bran fiber. Rice bran fiber combined with useful antioxidants may be a more effective approach to increase the stability of ground pork during cold storage.
AbstractsCitrus (Citrus unshiu S. Marcoy) industry by-products were used as a source of dietary fiber, and the effects of dietary fiber extracted from citrus peel on the proximate composition, pH, color, protein solubility, cooking loss, emulsion stability, and apparent viscosity of a chicken emulsion in model systems were examined. Chicken emulsions were prepared by adding citrus peel fiber at four different concentrations (1, 2, 3, and 4%). The apparent viscosity, redness, and yellowness of the chicken emulsion with citrus peel fiber were higher than those of the control (p<0.05). The lightness values of the chicken emulsions were lower in treatments containing citrus peel fiber (p<0.05). Furthermore, moisture content, cooking loss, and emulsion stability of the chicken emulsion with 1-2% citrus peel fiber were higher than those of other treatments (p<0.05). Fat content was lower in the treatments with added citrus peel fiber than that in the control (p<0.05). Chicken emulsions with added citrus peel fiber had improved quality characteristics, and the best results were obtained for the chicken emulsion with 2% added citrus peel fiber.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
