The nature of hydrative changes and cationic shifts in the over-tenderization of beef muscle resulting from irradiationEl-Badawi, Ahmed Adel Ismail 27 March 1963 (has links)
The over-tenderization of irradiated-sterilized meat is one
of the more important adverse effects resulting from the use of
irradiation for the preservation of meat. Although research has
been reported on the activity and effect of the inherent proteolytic
enzymes of irradiated meat, very little work has been directed toward
the intimate causes of the textural problems induced by the
irradiation treatment.
In this study, the influence of irradiation-sterilization on
some of the muscle characteristics involved in meat texture was
investigated in an attempt to elucidate the over-tenderizing action of
irradiation. In addition, the influence of treating the meat by several
means prior to irradiation was also investigated to determine their effects upon the texture of the meat. Information relative to the above
objectives was obtained by using analytical methods designed to show
changes in muscle protein charges, water-holding capacity, acidic
and basic groups, bound and free minerals, and disc electrophoretic
analysis of the glycine soluble extracts of the treated and control samples.
The results showed that the irradiation-sterilization of beef
muscle at 4.5 megarads caused tenderization of the meat. Beef
soaked in an equal amount of distilled water for 72 hours at 38°F
prior to heat inactivation of the enzymes and irradiation was much
firmer in texture than the unsoaked samples. Beef heated to an internal
temperature of 160°F prior to irradiation also resulted in meat
having a firm texture. However, irradiation tends to reverse the effects
of both soaking and heating and/or the combination of these two
treatments. When soaking, heating and irradiation are combined in
one treatment, these factors tend to exert their effect individually and
by different mechanisms.
Soaking the meat appears to cause a partial denaturation and a
net loss of anions of some of the muscle proteins resulting in a shift in
the isoelectric region of such meat to a higher pH which results in a
greater loss of water upon cooking and thus a firmer texture.
Heating the meat to an internal temperature of 160°F results in
a partial denaturation of the proteins and probably leads to the formation of stable cross linkages and a "salting-out" effect which
may be responsible for a decrease in the water-holding capacity.
Thus, meat would have a tighter or more "closed" structure and
firmer texture.
Irradiation exerts a fragmentation effect upon the beef
muscle proteins. These fragments seem to be held together by hydrogen
bonds and/or electrostatic forces. The fragmentary alterations
of the muscle proteins, the incorporation of water within the fragments,
and possibly a "salting-in" effect, appear to be the major
factors responsible for effects of irradiation on beef muscle texture.
The zinc cations appear to be involved with the heat-labile
proteins or enzymes which are denaturated by heating to 160°F.
The pH-water holding capacity curves were found to be a
valuable technique for investigating some of the biochemical changes
in the muscle proteins. / Graduation date: 1963

Evaluation of packaging and freezing and thawing rates on the shelf-life stability of ostrich meatLeygonie, Coleen 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD (Food Sc))--Stellenbosch University, 2011. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Ostrich meat has become increasingly popular in South Africa and abroad, driven by the health
conscious trend and ostrich meat’s natural low intramuscular fat, high polyunsaturated fatty acid
and low cholesterol content. This increased demand led to the investigation of novel packaging
regimes to improve its attractiveness and shelf-life.
Different modified atmospheric packaging regimes were studied for fresh and frozenthawed
ostrich M.iIliofibularis steaks stored at ±4°C for 10 days. Oxygen MAP (30 CO2:70 O2) was
applied with great success to fresh steaks, and resulted in significantly improved colour stability,
decreased drip loss and a 10-day shelf-life. Oxygen MAP of frozen-thawed ostrich steaks was not
successful as the colour deteriorated within 3 days, coupled with high lipid and protein oxidation.
The microbial shelf-life was not influenced by freezing and thawing. The use of nitrogen MAP (30
CO2:70 N2) as an alternative to vacuum packaging for fresh and frozen-thawed ostrich meat was
inconclusive due to trace amounts of residual oxygen in the headspace accelerating myoglobin
oxidation by depleting the metmyoglobin reducing activity.
The differences in oxidative stability of the fresh and frozen-thawed ostrich meat led to the
investigation of the source of these differences and a system that would allow control over the
freezing and thawing practice. This was supported by the industry that is under increasing pressure
to reduce the excessive (15-20%) thaw weight loss that is continually reported.
Subsequently, a mathematical prediction model based on the control volume approach was
developed that predicted the rate of freezing and thawing of intact whole vacuum-packed ostrich
muscle. The model predicted with greater accuracy than existing models, and can be used
successfully by the industry to optimally design, control and operate their systems.
Furthermore research was conducted to investigate the effect of different freezing and
thawing rates on the ice crystal formation and the quality of ostrich M. femorotibialis stored at ±4°C
post freeze/thaw. Five characteristic freezing rates (FR (time from 0°C to -7°C): 1, 2, 4, 8, 24h)
were paired with five characteristic thawing rates (TR (time form -7°C to 0°C): 1.5, 3, 6.5, 14, 21h)
in a completely randomised block design. Results showed that thawing had no impact on any of
the tested quality parameters, including thaw loss. Freezing rate however did influence the ice crystal formation and at a characteristic freezing rate of one hour (FR_1h) only intracellular ice
crystals were observed throughout the M. femorotibialis leading to the lowest thaw loss (2.57%)
and highest shear force. Freezing rate of 2h, 4h and 8h (FR_2h, FR_4h and FR_8h) were
dominated by extracellular ice crystals. FR_2h and FR_8h showed major dehydration of the
muscle fibres and excessive distortion of the muscle fibre matrix that led to significantly lower
oxidative stability. FR_24h (approximately commercial rates) formed columns of ice from the
surface to the centre of the meat resulting in the highest thaw loss (6.24%).
FR_4h was judged to deliver the best quality product with moderate thaw (3.93%) and drip
loss, low cooking loss, good colour stability and extremely low TBARS. FR_4h is an achievable
rate of freezing for the industry and if implemented should decrease the thaw loss problem as well
as increase revenue and throughput in the processing facility. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: ‘n Hedendaagse strewe na ‘n gesonde lewenstyl tesame met die natuurlike lae vetinhoud (d.i. hoë
poli-onversadigde vetsure en lae cholesterolvlak) van volstruisvleis het gelei tot ‘n toename in die
nasionale en internasionale aanvraag. Hierdie het ook die behoefte laat ontstaan om nuwe
verpakkingstegnieke te ondersoek om sodoende die aanvaarbaarheid en rakleeftyd van die produk
te verleng.
Die invloed van verskeie gewysigde atmosferiese verpakkingsmetodes (GAV) op die
kleurstabiliteit, drupverlies en rakleeftyd van vars en bevrore/ontdooide volstruisvleis (spesifiek M.
Iliofibularis), gestoor by ±4°C vir 10 dae, is ondersoek. Die suurstof GAV (30 CO2:70 O2) van vars
volstruisvleis het ‘n verbetering in kleurstabiliteit, verlaagde drupverlies en 'n verlengde mikrobiese
rakleeftyd (10 dae) tot gevolg gehad. Die suurstof GAV van bevrore-ontdooide volstruisvleis het
geen voordelige effek op kleurstabiliteit en rakleeftyd getoon nie. Die bevrore/ontdooide monsters
het totaal verkleur na 3 dae en ‘n hoë vlak van lipied- en proteïenoksidasie is waargeneem. Die
bevriesing en ontdooiing het geen invloed op rakleeftyd gehad nie.
Die moontlikheid om stikstof GAV (30 CO2:70 N2) as 'n alternatief tot vakuumverpakking vir
vars en bevrore/ontdooide volstruisvleis te gebruik, is beïnvloed deur die teenwoordigheid van
oorblywende suurstof in die lugruimte van die GAV, met ‘n gevolglike toename in die tempo van
mioglobien oksidasie as gevolg van ‘n afname in die metmioglobien reduksie aktiwiteit.
Die verskil in die oksidatiewe stabiliteit van vars en bevrore/ontdooide volstruisvleis het
gelei tot ‘n verdere ondersoek na die oorsaak van die verskille en die ontwikkeling van ‘n
moontlike protokol om die oksidatiewe stabiliteit en dus rakleeftyd van volstruisvleis, te verbeter en
bestuur. Die behoefte aan so ‘n protokol is beklemtoon deur die bedryf wat onder toenemende
druk verkeer om buitensporige ontdooiingsverliese (15-20%) te verminder. ‘n Wiskundige
voorspellingsmodel, gebaseer op die beheer-volume benadering, is ontwikkel om die tempo van
bevriesing en ontdooiing van vakuumverpakte heel volstruisspiere te voorspel. Die model het
tempo van bevriesing en ontdooiing met groter akkuraatheid as die bestaande modelle voorspel en
kan suksesvol gebruik word in die bestuur van slagpale.
Verder navorsing is onderneem om ondersoek in te stel na die effek van die tempo van
bevriesing en ontdooiing op die kwaliteit van die bevrore-ontdooide volstruisvleis tydens berging by
±4°C. Die invloed van die kombinasie van vyf bevriesingstempo’s (FR (tydsverloop 0°C tot -7°C):
1, 2, 4, 8, 24 h) met vyf ontdooiingstempo’s (OT (tydsverloop -7°C to 0°C): 1.5, 3, 6.5, 14, 21 h) is
ondersoek. Die resultate het getoon dat ontdooiingstempo geen beduidende invloed op enige van
die kwaliteit kriteria, insluitend ontdooiingsverlies, gehad het nie. Bevriesingtempo het egter ‘n
groot rol ten opsigte van yskristalvorming gespeel. Teen ‘n kenmerkende bevriesingstempo van
een uur (FR_1h) was slegs intrasellulêre yskristalle waargeneem dwarsdeur die M. femorotibialis
wat gelei het tot die laagste ontdooiingsverlies (2.57 %). Die ander bevriesingstempo’s, d.i. FR_2h,
FR_4h en FR_8h, het gelei tot die vorming van meestal ekstrasellulêre yskristalle. Bevriesingstempo’s van FR_2h en FR_8h het beduidende dehidrasie van die spiervesels en
vervorming van die spiervesel matriks tot gevolg gehad, wat tot verhoogde oksidasie gelei het. ‘n
Bevriesingstempo van FR_24h (d.i. kommersieële tempo), het gelei tot die vorming van
yskolomme van die oppervlak na die middelpunt van die spier, wat gevolglik die grootste
ontdooiingsverlies (6.24%) tot gevolg gehad het.
‘n Bevriesingstempo van vier ure (FR_4h) is bestempel as die mees geskikte bevriesings
tempo as gevolg van ‘n matige ontdooiingsverlies (3.93%), drupverlies, lae kookverlies, goeie kleur
stabiliteit en uiters lae lipiedoksidasie te verseker. Die FR_4h bevriesingstempo is haalbare in die
bedryf. Indien dit geïmplementeer word, sal dit waarskynlik die deurset van die slagpalesiklus
asook die kostedoeltreffendheid van die volstruisbedryf vebeter, deur die vermindering van
ontdooiingsverlies en verbetering van die algehele kwalitiet van die vleis.
