“…In the literature, there are studies on the reduction of NaCl (Oliveira et al, 2014;Perisic et al, 2013), replacement with KCl (Alino et al, 2010;Carvalho et al, 2015;Fieira, Marchi, & Alfaro, 2015;Lilic et al, 2015), in meat products (Alves et al, 2017;Georgantelis, Blekas, Katikou, Ambrosiadis, & Fletouris, 2007;Jorge et al, 2015;Oliveira et al, 2016) and the use of flavor enhancers (Fellendorf et al, 2016). However, knowing that the burger is a very widely-consumed meat product with a high sodium content and a high risk of inducing hypertension, there has yet to investigation into developing the beef burger with replacement of 50 and 60% of NaCl with KCl and the addition of flavor enhancer to minimize the effect of sodium reduction and the residual taste of potassium.…”
