Introduction. Antioxidant system is one of the main cellular mechanisms of adaptation. It is able to neutralize the destructive effect of free radicals, both external and internal. Functional products, especially of meat origin, can provide necessary antioxidant properties. Some types of plant raw materials possess a high content of polyphenol complexes with antioxidant properties. Therefore, introduction of phytonutrients into the composition of meat products can help to expand the range of foods with an antioxidant effect. Daurian rosehip is rich in biologically active substances and can increase their safety during processing. The research objective was to study the possibility of immobilization of Daurian rosehip antioxidants by protein-lipid inclusion. Study objects and methods. The research featured fruits of Daurian rosehip, its aqueous alcoholic extract, and protein-lipid complex. Results and discussion. The article presents experimental data on the chemical composition of Daurian rosehip. The optimal method with the best antioxidant results was a microwave phytoextraction by an aqueous alcoholic solution at a power of 800 W for 6–7 min. The antioxidants were immobilized by including the protein-lipid complex into the gel. The experiment demonstrated excellent functional and technological characteristics of the resulting system. Conclusion. The research revealed the optimal modes of microwave extraction of biologically active substances of Daurian rosehip. The rosehip extract was included into the protein-lipid complex and immobilized antioxidants, thus increasing their efficiency.
Introduction. Modern meat scientists are currently interested in combining meat raw materials with plant ingredients to enrich products with biologically active substances of natural origin, including antioxidants. In this regard, we studied the antioxidant capacity of a dry lingonberry marc extract introduced into meat paste and analyzed its effects on the product’s color and stability during storage. Study objects and methods. Our objects of study were a dry lingonberry marc extract originating in the Republic of Buryatia, forcemeat, and a ready-made paste in a casing. The extract was obtained by water-alcohol extraction using microwave irradiation. We investigated the physicochemical characteristics of the dry extract, including its contents of phenolic compounds, benzoic acid, and antioxidants. Results and discussion. During the experiment, we analyzed the extract’s effect on the paste’s total antioxidant capacity, coloring, and shelf life. The results showed that increasing the extract’s amount from 0.1% to 0.4% changed the color of the paste from gray-brown to purple-brown, respectively, due to anthocyanins. In further tests, we used a 0.2% concentration of lingonberry extract – the optimal amount that retained the usual brown color of the paste while increasing the content of antioxidant substances. Then, we analyzed the degree of fat oxidation in the paste samples made with and without sodium lactate during storage. According to the results, the lingonberry marc extract used without the acidity regulator and with it inhibited lipid oxidation by 12.7% and 20%, respectively, by neutralizing free radicals. Finally, we tested the presence of pathogenic microorganisms in the end products. We detected no E. coli bacteria in the samples and found an inhibited growth of mesophilic anaerobic and facultative anaerobic microorganisms due to the extract’s bactericidal effect established in Our earlier studies. Conclusion. Thus, our results indicated that the dry lingonberry marc extract introduced into meat paste increased the product’s total antioxidant capacity and improved its stability during storage.
The article analyzes the microstructure of collagen of animal raw materials, modified by a chemical method by exposing the tripe tissue in dry sodium bicarbonate and subsequent exposure in a solution of acetic acid to improve its technological characteristics. The objects of research were beef tripe tissue from a freshly slaughtered animal before (control) and after modification (experiment). The modification was carried out in accordance with the following scheme: sequential exposure of the tripe tissue for 60 min with sodium bicarbonate in dry form, distributed over the surface of the tripe tissue, at a ratio of 10: 1, then rinsing in running cool water, then subsequent exposure in 2% food grade acetic acid for 30 minutes. In the course of the experiment, the following studies were carried out: microstructural analysis, changes in the indicators of cutting force and the content of amine nitrogen. The obtained experimental data showed that the treatment causes a change in the collagen microstructure of the tripe tissue: there is a widespread loosening of the cicatrix wall and destructive changes in collagen and muscle fibers, swelling and loosening the muscle fibers, while the striation of the fiber structure is significantly changed. In individual muscle bundles, elongated nuclei are noticeable, which are located eccentrically; in some areas of the stratified epithelium, cell nuclei were absent. Microstructural and biochemical analysis proves the presence of morphological and structural processes in the tripe tissue after the proposed method of chemical treatment, which improves its characteristics for further technological processing and the addition of sausages.
Correct and balanced nutrition helps to prevent diseases and improve the general condition of the body. Meat products are one of the main sources of human nutrition. One of the developing sectors of the meat industry is the production of meat rolls. The purpose of the research is to assess the organoleptic and physicochemical characteristics of the investigated poultry roll. The offered poultry roll meets safety requirements, has a high content of trace elements and vitamins due to the use of natural bee honey, concentrated milk whey, fresh garlic, a mixture of starter cultures and orange juice in the recipe. According to the research results, it can be concluded that the finished product has high organoleptic characteristics that meet the requirements and expectations of the consumer. It is advisable to use the product for the nutrition of athletes, children over three years old and in other specialized nutrition.
The polycomponent protein-lipid compositions are traditionally used in minced meat products to regulate nutritional value, functional, technological and organoleptic characteristics of the finished product. The present article presents the results of research aimed to creation of antioxidant-enriched protein-lipid complex (PLC) with the optimal ratio ω3: ω6 of PUFA. The ratio of lipid component was optimized by linear programming method, where the recommended ratio of ω-6: ω-3 of PUFA as 10: 1 was used as term of limitation. In result of calculations the fatty component was obtained by blending of rendered beef fat with soybean oil and sunflower oil in the following ratio: rendered beef fat — 73%, sunflower oil — 15%, soybean oil — 12%. After that the PLC formulation was optimized by research of influence of the introduced protein complex in amount from 4% to 10% and the fatty component in amount from 40% to 43% on index of shear stress of the PLC. The introduced amount of protein, fat and water is taken in ratio 1:(4–7):(4–7) commonly used in the meat processing industry to form the functional and technological characteristics of the minced meat. In result of experiments the following PLC formulation was adopted, which provides the necessary stable consistency of the mixture: protein complex — 9%, fatty component — 42%, water — 49%. To enrich meat products with vitamins and antioxidants it is proposed to include into PLC an extract obtained with microwave field 800 W from the Daurian rosehips which grows in the Far East region. The obtained PLC has a high water-retaining capacity; it remains stable while heating and it can be stored for five days without any visible signs of deterioration, as the peroxide value remains within the permissible limits. PLC features optimal ratio of ω-6: ω-3 of PUFA, equal to 10:1, and a high value of the total antioxidants equal to 5.4 mg/g.
