Use of sustainable packaging materials for fresh beef vacuum packaging application and product assessment using physicochemical means. Meat Sci 2024; 216:109551. [PMID: 38852287 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2024.109551] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
Packaging material should guarantee the longest possible shelf life of food and help to maintain its quality. The aim of the study was to assess the physicochemical changes taking place during 28-day ageing of beef steaks packed in two types of multilayer films containing biodegradable polymers - polylactic acid (NAT/PLA) and Mater-Bi® (NAT/MBI). The control group consisted of steaks packed in synthetic polyamide/polyethylene (PA/PE) film. The samples stored in NAT/PLA had significantly lower purge loss than the control samples and the lowest expressible water amount after 14 and 21 days. Following blooming, the most favourable colour was shown in steaks stored in NAT/MBI, with the highest values for the L*, a* and C* parameters and the R630/580 ratio, a high proportion of oxymyoglobin, and the lowest share of metmyoglobin. All steaks, regardless of the type of packaging material, had acceptable tenderness and were stable in terms of lipid oxidation.

Zhao Y, Wang Z, Bruce HL, Roy BC, Yang W, Zhang D, Hou C. The effect of modified atmosphere packaging at an early postmortem stage on lamb meat quality during subsequent aging. J Food Sci 2024; 89:228-244. [PMID: 38126109 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.16881] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
This study explores the influence of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on fresh lamb meat quality with respect to gas concentration, rigor state, and post-mortem aging time. A comparison was done for the quality characteristics of lamb Longissimus thoracis lumborum chops that had been packaged separately in air, 75%O2 + 25%CO2 MAP or 50%O2 + 50%CO2 MAP at 1, 6, and 24 h post-mortem and then stored for 6, 12, 24, 72, and 144 h post-mortem, and the quality of lamb chops had been evaluated at each post-mortem period separately. Chops packaged at 1 and 6 h post-mortem in MAP had reduced pH decline, less purge loss, and enhanced redness at early post-mortem storage times. Lamb color stability was evidently greater in 75%O2 + 25%CO2 MAP than in 50%O2 + 50%CO2 MAP during the early storage period when a* and R630/R580 were taken into account. Shear force values were lowest in lambs packaged at 1 h post-mortem with 75%O2 + 25%CO2 MAP at 12 h post-mortem and then increased until 72 h post-mortem, suggesting that rigor has been delayed by such a high O2 MAP. Thus, fresh lamb quality was maintained most effectively when packaged at 1 h post-mortem in 75%O2 + 25%CO2 MAP for consumption at 12 h post-mortem. The exact mechanisms and optimization of MAP based on Chinese retail conditions should be considered in future studies. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: In this study, three slaughter patterns in the meat industry involving boning immediately after dressing (hot-boning) and chilling for a short period (warm-boning) or overnight (cold-boning) are considered, as well as the behavior of non-immediate consumption after purchase. Modified atmosphere packaging provides an effective preservation of early post-mortem muscles with enhanced color stability, water holding capacity, and texture during refrigerated storage. This could provide new insights into how to process lamb muscles in the early post-mortem period to improve and stabilize lamb quality.

Animals (Basel) 2023; 13:3848. [PMID: 38136885 PMCID: PMC10741057 DOI: 10.3390/ani13243848] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the effects of adding corn distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) to the diet on the meat quality, chemical composition, fatty acid composition, and lipidomics profiling in the longissimus thoracis (LT) of finishing pigs. Twenty-four healthy crossbred pigs (average body weight 61.23 ± 3.25 kg) were randomly divided into two groups with three replicates per group and four pigs per pen. The control group (CON) was fed a basal diet, and the DDGS group was fed an experimental diet with 30% DDGS. The results show that adding DDGS to the diet increases the yellowness (b*), chroma (C*), linoleic acid (C18:2n-6) percentages, polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) percentages and iodine value of LT (p < 0.05). Based on LC-ESI-MS/MS, 1456 lipids from 6 classes or 44 subclasses in LT were analyzed, and 50 differential lipids were observed. Triglyceride (TG) with C18:2n-6 side chains and ceramide alpha-hydroxy fatty acid-sphingosine (Cer-AS) contents increased significantly, and the decrease in multiple glycerophospholipids (GPs) content may be related to differences in the glycerophospholipid metabolic pathway. Correlation analysis suggests that triglycerides with C18:2n-6 side chains may be one of the reasons for the changes in b* and C* values in the LT. In conclusion, feeding DDGS affects the meat quality and fatty acid composition and may affect the lipid profile in the LT of finishing pigs by regulating lipid metabolism.

Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation of vitamin E (VE) on growth performance, slaughter performance, antioxidant capacity and meat quality characteristics of finishing bulls. Twenty Yanbian cattle (bulls) with initial body weight (BW) 485 ± 42 kg were randomly divided into two groups (control and treatment groups) and participated in a100-day finishing trial. The control group (CON) was fed a basal diet (total mixed ration, TMR). The treatment group was fed a basal diet supplemented with VE (provided as α-tocopherol acetate, 700 IU/bull/day). VE supplementation significantly increased the average daily gain (ADG) of finishing bulls, the beef marbling score, meat color parameters (a* [redness]), intramuscular fat content, the concentration of catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), VE and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-13) in the serum and muscle tissue (P < 0.05). VE supplementation significantly decreased drip loss and cooking loss of the beef, the concentration of nitric oxide (NO) in the serum and muscle tissue, the concentration of malondialdehyde in the muscle tissue (P < 0.05), and tended to decrease the feed: gain (P = 0.077) and shear force (P = 0.062) of the beef. In conclusion, VE supplementation can improve the meat quality parameters of finishing bulls, especially the improvement of beef tenderness. The improvement of beef tenderness by VE supplementation may be related to the increase of MMPs concentration, and a potential mechanism for the secretion of MMPs by VE supplementation may be related to its antioxidant capacity.

Abstract
Our previous study has found that ultrasonic application on raw meat could improve the flavor of unsmoked bacon. For comprehensively evaluating the impacts of ultrasonic pretreatment (0, 250, 500 or 750 W, 20 kHz) on the overall quality of unsmoked bacon during processing, the following indicators were determined including salt and water content, pH, shear force, color, water distribution, texture and myofibril microstructure. Results manifest that ultrasonic pretreatment could significantly improve the salt and water content, pH and redness of unsmoked bacon. The water retention capacity was obviously enhanced by ultrasonic pretreatment proved by increased immobile water and decreased free water. Meanwhile, the shear force, the hardness and the chewiness were notably ameliorated after ultrasonic pretreatment, suggesting a better tenderness verified by the observation results of transmission electron microscope. However, no significant differences were found on the brightness, yellowness, springiness, cohesiveness and resilience of unsmoked bacon after ultrasonic pretreatment. Consequently, ultrasound could be considered as a potential tool for the overall-quality improvement of unsmoked bacon.

Food Res Int 2023; 169:112916. [PMID: 37254350 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.112916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
This investigation aims to elucidate the roles of lipids on the volatilome evolution of postmortem lamb and its possible modulated mechanism behind. Firstly, the physicochemical properties were evaluated as coordinating role of flavor quality, and results suggested that chilled storage improved tenderness of muscle tissue and induced color variation of lamb. According to multivariate results, the pattern shifts of volatile profile of chilled lamb could be differentiated successfully. Besides, the potential differential aroma-active compounds were identified, including up-regulated heptanol, 1-octen-3-ol, 6-methyl-2-heptanone, 3-heptanone, 2-pentyl furan and octanol in early stage of storage (days 0-3) and down-regulated hexanal, pentanal, hexanol, octanol, 6-methy-2-heptanone, heptanol, 1-octen-3-ol and benzaldehyde in later stage of storage (days 3-7). Then, discriminant analysis recognized the differential lipid species corresponding to different stages of lamb flavor development, involving phospholipids, sphingolipids, glycerolipids and fatty acyls. Herein, the degradation of acyl carnitine and diglyceride may be an important pathway that contributed to volatilome evolution of postmortem lamb in the early stage of storage. These results demonstrated a potential relationship between headspace volatilome and lipidome evolutions, providing a comprehensive understanding for development of lipid-derived volatile compounds of chilled lamb and useful for lamb characteristic flavor quality evaluation and control in future.

Abstract
This study describes the performance of a Marel conveyer vision scanner, across beef carcases (n = 102) from a wide visual marbling score range, in its ability to predict chemical intramuscular fat (IMF%), Meat Standards Australia (MSA) and AUS-MEAT marbling scores of portion steaks. Vision scanner marbling scores were acquired on fresh-cut steaks, with its predictions tested using a leave-one-out cross validation method, which demonstrated precise and accurate predictions of IMF% (R2 = 0.87; RMSEP = 1.16; slope = 0.09; bias = 0.22), MSA (R2 = 0.82; RMSEP = 70.11; slope = 0.09; bias = 17.08) and AUS-MEAT marbling (R2 = 0.79; RMSEP = 0.75; slope = 0.16; bias = 0.08). Care must be taken when calibrating devices on non-fresh-cut steak, as fresh-cut steaks produced different vision scanner marbling values suggesting different prediction equations are warranted. The Marel vision scanner prediction of visual grader scores was relatively less precise and accurate than its prediction of IMF%, however in this case it may have been due to error in the grader scores.

Abstract
To understand characteristics of carcass traits and meat quality in pig population, 22 indicators of carcass characteristics and meat quality traits were measured on 278 Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire barrows that were slaughtered in different seasons (spring, summer, autumn and winter). The effects of body weight and season on carcass characteristics and meat quality were analyzed by GLM procedure, followed the Bonferroni multiple test. The phenotypic correlations among those traits were calculated by employing the CORR procedure. In addition, the linear regression equations were constructed by stepwise regression model in REG procedure. The results showed that pigs slaughtered in spring had the heaviest body weight among the four seasons (P < 0.05), pigs slaughtered in summer had the lowest backfat depth and shear force (P < 0.05), and pigs slaughtered in winter had the lowest drip loss (P < 0.05). The results showed more variation in backfat depth, drip loss, intramuscular fat content, and shear force, compared with other indicators across pigs. Body weight had a significant association with loin eye area, average backfat depth and L⁎24 h (P < 0.05). Furthermore, regression equations for drip loss, cooking loss, shear force, and intramuscular fat content were constructed using more accessible indicators. Collectively, this study provided an overall view of carcass and meat quality traits in a commercial pig population in China, and illustrated that season significantly affected carcass characteristics and meat quality traits independently of body weight.

Abstract
This study aimed to improve the color and oxidative stabilities of dark Nellore bull steaks with greater-than-normal ultimate pH (pHu) by the injection (8% raw wet weight basis) of a solution with L-lactate (2.5%), phosphate (0.3%) and rosemary extract (0.06%), with further packaging in high oxygen atmosphere (HiOx MAP). Longissimus lumborum muscles from pasture-fed Nellore bulls were divided into three pHu ranges: normal (<5.80), intermediate (5.81-6.19), and high (≥6.2). Muscles were then halved, with sections were randomly assigned to non-enhanced (C, n = 6/pHu range) or injected (E, n = 6/pHu range) groups, at 72 h postmortem. Each section was cut into 2 cm-slices, which were HiOx-packed and then stored for 5 days (dark) and displayed for 9 days (fluorescent lighting) at 2 °C. Higher pHu steaks exhibited greater a*, b*, h*, C* and surface oxymyoglobin and lower surface deoxymyoglobin and oxygen consumption compared to those of normal pHu between days 0 and 5 (p < 0.05). Over the time, normal-pHu muscles showed oxidative protection (lower TBARS and greater metmyoglobin reducing ability values, p < 0.05) in enhanced-steaks. Therefore, enhancement and HiOx MAP seem to produce greater-than-normal pHu Nellore bull steaks with a preferable color and quality, even after display time.

[PMID: 37001445 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2023.109169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2022] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 03/22/2023]
Abstract
Only few studies have used Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to assess meat quality traits directly in the chiller. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate the ability of a handheld NIR spectrometer to predict marbling scores on intact meat muscles in the chiller. A total of 829 animals from 2 slaughterhouses in France and Italy were involved. Marbling was assessed according to the 3G (Global Grading Guaranteed) protocol using 2 different scores. NIR measurements were collected by performing 5 scans at different points of the Longissimus thoracis. An average MSA marbling score of 330-340 was obtained in the two countries. The prediction models provided a R2 in external validation between 0.46 and 0.59 and a standard error of prediction between 83.1 and 105.5. Results did provide a moderate prediction of the marbling scores but can be useful in the European industry context to predict classes of MSA marbling.

Effect of Wet Aging on Color Stability, Tenderness, and Sensory Attributes of Longissimus lumborum and Gluteus medius Muscles from Water Buffalo Bulls. Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11082248. [PMID: 34438706 PMCID: PMC8388356 DOI: 10.3390/ani11082248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2021] [Revised: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The water buffalo is found in many tropical countries worldwide. In the current world scenario, where meeting the protein requirements of the population is one of the biggest future challenges, buffalo meat could be a good source of protein and other nutrients. Currently, very little information is available regarding buffalo meat quality attributes. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate the effects of aging time and muscle type on meat quality attributes (pH, color, tenderness, water holding capacity, and sensory acceptance) of buffalo meat. The results showed that color, tenderness, and sensory attributes were improved with aging time; the suitable aging time required to enhance meat quality attributes in Longissimus lumborum and Gluteus medius muscles is 28 and 21 days, respectively. Abstract The present study aimed to investigate the effect of wet aging on meat quality characteristics of Longissimus lumborum (LL) and Gluteus medius (GM) muscles of buffalo bulls. Meat samples from six aging periods, i.e., 0 day (d) = control, 7 d, 14 d, 21 d, 28 d, and 35 d, were evaluated for pH, color, metmyoglobin content (MetMb%), cooking loss, water holding capacity (WHC), myofibrillar fragmentation index (MFI), Warner–Bratzler shear force (WBSF), and sensory evaluation. The pH, instrumental color redness (a *), yellowness (b *), chroma (C *), and MetMb% values were increased, while the lightness (L *) and hue angle (h *) values showed non-significant (p > 0.05) differences in both LL and GM muscles in all aging periods. The cooking loss increased while WHC decreased till 35 days of aging. MFI values significantly (p < 0.05) increased, while WBSF values decreased; in addition, sensory characteristics were improved with the increase in the aging period. Overall, the color, tenderness, and sensory characteristics were improved in LL and GM muscles until 28 and 21 days of aging, respectively. Based on the evaluated meat characteristics, 28 days of aging is required to improve the meat quality characteristics of LL, whereas 21 days of aging is suitable for GM muscle.

Abstract
Lamb (n = 79) meat colour was scored by 879 untrained consumers using a scale of 0 (brown) to 100 (red). This consumer colour score (CCS) was obtained on m. longissimus lumborum (loin) and m. semimembranosus (topside), stored for short (5–7 days), medium (33–35 days), and long periods (110–112 days) and a retail display time of up to 4 days. Consumers perceived topside to be less red initially and changed from red to brown more rapidly when stored for the long-storage period (p < 0.01). Whereas, the initial CCS of loin samples were similar across the storage periods (p > 0.05). CCS and the instrument measure oxy/met (reflectance of light at wavelengths 630 nm and 580 nm) had a low correlation coefficient of 0.33 (p < 0.01). The propensity for lamb growth and leanness indicated by sire breeding values for lamb weight, eye muscle depth, eye muscle fat depth, and loin intramuscular fat had varied and inconsistent effects on CCS. Therefore, even the selection on CCS.

Abstract
Following a century of major discoveries on the mechanisms determining meat colour and tenderness using traditional scientific methods, further research into complex and interactive factors contributing to variations in meat quality is increasingly being based on data-driven "omics" approaches such as proteomics. Using two recent meta-analyses of proteomics studies on beef colour and tenderness, this review examines how knowledge of the mechanisms and factors underlying variations in these meat qualities can be both confirmed and extended by data-driven approaches. While proteomics seems to overlook some sources of variations in beef toughness, it highlights the role of post-mortem energy metabolism in setting the conditions for development of meat colour and tenderness, and also points to the complex interplay of energy metabolism, calcium regulation and mitochondrial metabolism. In using proteomics as a future tool for explaining variations in meat quality, the need for confirmation by further hypothesis-driven experimental studies of post-hoc explanations of why certain proteins are biomarkers of beef quality in data-driven studies is emphasised.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of beef meat colour during the initial 72 h postmortem to assess the possible effects of mitochondria on meat colour development. Bovine longissimus thoracis muscles (n = 5) were collected from one side of carcasses at 0.5, 4, 8, 12, 24, and 72 h postmortem and displayed in air for 6 days to measure colour and detect mitochondrial morphology and function. The results showed that beef had higher L⁎, a⁎, and b⁎ at 24 and 72 h postmortem and less colour change during 6 days of display in comparison with meat from 0.5, 4, and 8 h postmortem. Changes in mitochondrial morphology were observed at 24 and 72 h postmortem. Mitochondria presented a metabolic pattern early postmortem in that the MRA and NADH content did not change. Both the increase in beef colour stability and tissue oxygen consumption were observed within 72 h postmortem.
