Quality Improvement of Frozen and Chilled Beef biceps femoris with the Application of Salt-bicarbonate Solution

Abstract: The effects of salt and bicarbonate solution on overall meat quality in beef biceps femoris muscle were investigated with the application of chilling and freezing conditions. Muscles were injected to a target of 120% of original meat weight with a solution containing 1.2 M sodium chloride, 0.25 M sodium bicarbonate and 0.1% ascorbic acid (pH 7.2). Half of the meat samples, considered as chill treatment and chill control, were stored at 4°C up to five days; while the other half, frozen treatment and frozen cont… Show more

“…The significantly higher fillet yield and reduced liquid loss coincides with the elevated pH and ionic strength, and are concordant with similar studies on injected pork (Kauffman et al, 1998;Sheard & Tali, 2004), beef (Sultana et al, 2008) and poultry meat (Alvarado & Sams, 2003;Sen, Naveena, Muthukumar, Babji, & Murthy, 2005). Interestingly, Sen et al (2005) found that NaCl brine with NaHCO 3 was superior to tetrasodium pyrophosphates when comparing WHC, liquid loss during cooking, and sensory attributes in chicken.…”

“…Offer and Knight [1983] and Sultana et al [2008] suggested that tenderness in acid marinated meat may be caused by changes in the connective tissue. According to Pearson and Young [1989] the irreversible changes occur at pH below 4.5, after marinating with weak organic acids/their salts, causing decrease in functional activity and WHC.…”

“…Several studies have shown that treating meat with an alkali brine containing sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3 ) results in higher pH, darker color, improved liquid retention and texture including Atlantic cod (Åsli & Mørkøre, 2012), poultry (Sen, Naveena, Muthukumar, Babji, & Murthy, 2005), pork (Kauffman et al, 1998;Wynveen et al, 2001) and beef (Sultana et al, 2008).…”
