Incidence and physical properties of PSE chicken meat in a commercial processing plant

Abstract: It is known that PSE meat present important functional defects, such as low water holding capacity and ultimate pH, which may compromise the quality of further-processed meat products. In this study, L* (lightness), a* (redness), and b* (yellowness) values of 500 chicken breast fillets were determined using a portable colorimeter (Minolta, model CR-400) in a commercial processing plant. Fillets were considered pale when their L* was ≥49. Out of those samples, 30 fillets with normal color and 30 pale fillets we… Show more

“…Barbut (1993; suggested using a high L* value (>51-53) to determine PSE meats described by paler color and changed texture and water holding capacity in turkey. Garcia et al (2010) showed that pale and normal chicken fillets presented significantly different L* and a* values. The pH values of the normal and pale groups were 6.20 and 6.04, respectively, and were significantly different from each other (Table 1).…”

“…The most serious defect of PSE meat is drip loss. Water is not closely bound to proteins, and cell membranes are very permeable in pale meats (Garcia et al, 2010). Data illustrate that drip losses are higher for pale fillets than for normal fillets (Table 3).…”

“…PSE-like poultry meat quality defect has become one of the great challenges in the context of the functional properties of meat and meat products for the poultry industry (Petracci, Bianchi, Mudalala, & Cavani, 2013). The recent reported incidence of PSE-like broiler breast meat in commercial poultry plants from Brazil was approximately 10.2% (Garcia et al, 2010). The occurrence of PSE-like muscle can be up to 23.4% in China as reported by Zhu, Xu, Min, and Zhou (2012), thus resulting in more economic loss to the poultry industry (Petracci et al, 2009).…”
