Effects of an Extract from Olive Fruits on the Physicochemical Properties, Lipid Oxidation and Volatile Compounds of Beef Patties

Abstract

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of an olive extract (OE) on the physicochemical and microbiological characteristics, lipid oxidation and volatile compounds of beef patties stored both aerobically and under modified atmosphere packaging for 15 days at 4 °C. The antioxidant and antimicrobial effects of the OE were compared to those of sulfite. Four formulations were elaborated according to the antioxidant and dose used: without antioxidant, C; 300 mg potassium metabisulfite/kg product, S; 150 mg OE/kg product, OE1; and 250 mg of OE/kg product, OE2. The parameters analyzed were pH, water activity, color, lipid oxidation (TBARS and volatile organic compounds: hexanal, 2-pentyl-furan, 1-pentanol, 2,3-octanedione and nonanal, 1-octen-2-ol) and total viable counts. The OE delayed the loss of the bright red color of the patties and reduced the lipid oxidation in both types of packaging compared to the control patty. Sulfite was the most effective antioxidant for inhibition of the total viable counts. An OE could be used as a natural antioxidant to delay the lipid oxidation of meat without negatively affecting its physicochemical properties.

Preparation and Characterization of Bio-Nanocomposites Film of Chitosan and Montmorillonite Incorporated with Ginger Essential Oil and Its Application in Chilled Beef Preservation

“…Beef is the third most consumed meat in the world, preceded by pork and poultry. China, United States, and Brazil are the world's top three consumers of beef [1]. Beef is popular among the public and some fitness enthusiasts because of its high protein and low lipid content [2].…”

Spoilage of tilapia by Pseudomonas putida with different adhesion abilities

“…Many scholars believe that lipid oxidation is an important cause of fishy odors ( Feng et al, 2012 ; Shahidi, 2016 ). Bacteroides has a highly positive correlation with 2,3-octanedione, a volatile substance related to lipid oxidation with an unpleasant grassy smell ( Gomez et al, 2020 ). Study showed that Clostridaceae and Bacteroidaceae can promote β-oxidation processes, and β-oxidation leads to lipid oxidation ( Coma et al, 2016 ).…”

Effects of Process Parameters on the Quality of Suantang Beef

“…Petričević, et al [ 61 ] found that 2-nonanone contributes to a dry-cured ham aroma with floral/fruity/blue cheese aroma. In addition, beef after ST cooking presented significantly decreased concentration of 2,3-octanedione, which was related to the formation of a rotten odor of 2,3-octanedione [ 62 ].…”
