Abstract

The experiments were carried out to investigate the aging effect between loin muscles from Hanwoo and Helstein. Two kinds of loin samples were prepared from the carcasses of grade B2 from Hanwoo and D from Holstein. The carcasses were chilled for 24 hours after slaughter. The carcasses was obtained by chilling the loin fort 1 day after wrapping it. On the other hand. was obtained divided by 500g and stored at 2$^{\circ}C$ for 11 days after air packing. In the case of fresh beef pH and lactic acid of grade B2 were lower than that of grade D. Hardness and chewiness of grade B2 were lower than that of grade D, but myofibrillar fragmentation index(MFI) of glade B2 were higher than that of grade D. Total concentrations of free amino acid of grade B2 were higher than those of D. The contents of monounsaturated fatty acid of grade B2 was lower than grade D, and monosaturated fatty acid/saturated fatty acid(MUFA/SFA) of grade B2 were higher than grade D. The contents of nonprotein nitrogen of the aged beef was higher than the fresh beef, and beef of grade B2 was higher than that of grade D. In case of aging beef. cooking loss of grade B2 was lower than grade D.

도축후 하루동안 냉장한 상등급육(B2 등급)과 등외등급육(D 등급)에서 등심부위를 분할하여 두쪽으로 나누고 한쪽은 랲으로 싸서 1일간 냉장하고 (신선육), 다른 한쪽은 500g씩 자르고 11일간 냉장(숙서육)하였다. 상등급육과 등외등급육의 숙성효과를 파악하기 위하여 신선육과 숙성육의 pH, 유산함량, 비단백태 질소 화합물, 경도, 저작성, 근원섬유 소편화도, 유리 아미노산, 지방산 및 가열감량을 측정하였다. 신선육의 경우 상등급육이 등외등급육에 비하여 pH 및 유산함량이 낮았다. 상등급육의 경도 및 저작성은 등외등급육보다 낮으면서 근원섬유소편화도는 높았다. 그리고 상등급육의 총유리아미노산은 등외등급육보다 많았다. 상등급육은 포화지방산 함량이 낮고 포화지방산에 대한 단일불포화지방산의 비율(MUFA/SFA)이 높았다. 숙성육의 비단백태 질소화합물은 신선육보다 높았으며, 상등급육이 등외등급육보다 낮았다.
