Abstract:Studies on the Curing of MeatsPart I. Effects of nitrite on the formation and stability of cured meat colorThe effects of nitrite on the formation and the stability of denatured globin nitric oxide hemochrome in meats were studied. The content of nitroso pigment in the meats was determined by Gantner's method.Optimul level of sodium nitrite for the development and the fading of nitroso pigment was found to be 0.03-0.06% (0.02-0.04% as nitrite ion). Residual amount of nitrite at this optimal additional levels i… Show more
