Abstract

In order to study effect of freezing rates on the quality changes such as pH, TBA value, free fatty acids and protein extractability, cylindrical chopped beef logs with 10cm of diameter and 10cm of height were frozen at three freezing rates(0.97cm/hr, 2.05cm/hr, 3.71cm/hr)using air blast freezer. Physicochemical changes of frozen meat were investigated during forzen storage at $-20^{\circ}C$ for 16weeks. Results on pH change showed $0.1{\sim}0.2unit$ increase at the 16th week of the frozen storage and the change was smaller with the increasing freezing rates. Free fatty acids content and TBA value also were increased during forzen storage, but they were minimal at 3.71cm/hr freezing rate. Correlation coefficient between TBA value and free fatty acids content were highly significant(r=0.804). After 16weeks of storage, extractibilities of salt soluble protein were decreased by 17.7%, 6.1% and 1.6% at freezing rates of 0.97, 2.05 and 3.71cm/hr, respectively. On the other hand, extractabilities of water soluble protein were decreased by 26.0%, 21.2% and 18.5%, respectively. The effect of freezing rates on the protein extractability appeared to be greater in salt soluble protein than in water soluble protein, but freezing denaturation was more rapid in water soluble protein.

냉동육에 대한 동결속도의 영향을 살펴보고자 송풍동 결기를 이용하여 직경 10cm, 높이 10cm규격의 세절된 원통형 쇠고기를 0.97cm/hr, 2.05cm/hr, 3.71cm/hr의 속도로 동결시켰으며 $-20^{\circ}C$ 냉동고에서 16주간 저장하여 저장 중 쇠고기의 이화학적 성질을 조사하였다. 저장기간이 길어짐에 따라 pH는 다소 증가하여 16주 저장육에서 $0.1{\sim}0.2\;unit$의 pH상승을 보여주고 있으며, 동결속도가 빠를수록 pH 변화는 적었다. 유리지방산 함량 및 TBA가 역시 저장기간이 길어질수록 계속 증가하고 있으나 3. 71cm/hr의 동결속도에서 가장 낮은값을 유지 하고 있었으며, TBA 가와 유리지방산 함량과의 상관계수가 0.804로 나타나 지방산패 에 유리 지방산이 관여하는 것으로 나타났다. 0.97cm/hr, 2.05cm/hr, 3.71cm/hr의 동결속도에서 16주 저장육의 염용성단백질 추출성은 각각 17.7%, 6.1%, 1.6% 감소를 보여준 반면 수용성단백질 추출성은 26.0%, 21.2%, 18.5%의 감소를 나타내고 있어 동결속도의 영향이 염용성단백질추출성에 더욱 크게 나타났으나 동결변성은 오히려 수용성단백질이 더욱 빨리 진행되는 것으로 나타났다.
