As the pH of ground pork increased from 5.0 to 7.0, the corresponding development of 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ decreased significantly (p<.001). At the 4th day of refrigerated storage, with the increase in pH of ground pork from 5.0 to 7.0, the release of free iron decreased significantly (p<.05) from 1.50 to .99 ppm. The decrease in free iron content of pH 7 pork well explains the decrease in TBARS absorbances. The fact that the addition of 2% ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) to pH 5 ground pork decreased the oxidative rancidity development (p<.001) strongly supported the above finding that the increased free iron content of pH 5ground pork catalyze the oxidation during storage. The activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) at the 4th day of refrigerated storage decreased significantly (p<.05) when the pH of ground pork decreased from 7.0 to 5.0. Both the lower free iron content and the higher activity of GPx were proved to be important factors in controlling the oxidative rancidity of high pH ground pork.

Four low fat ground beef groups containing 10% fat plus 0, 5, 10 and 20% additional cooked lod rice and a control ground beef containing 30% fat were prepared and the analysis for microbiological and oxidative stability were conducted. During 6 days of storage at 4$^{\circ}C$ microbial analysis including total plate count and coliform groups were performed and 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) absorbances were measured. The growth rate of total aerobic bacteria and coliform groups tended to increase with the increase in fat content and the amount of added cooked lod rice. Development of oxidative rancidity were not significantly different between 10 and 30% fat ground beef but among the 10% ground beef the rancidity development significantly(p<05) decreased with the in-crease in the amount of added cooked old rice. Low fat ground beef groups were not stable over 3 days during storage at 4$^{\circ}C$.

For monitoring lipid oxidation development in cooked ground pork during refrigerationm, malonaldehydethiobarbituric acid(MA-TBA) contents were measured using high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). As the oxidation proceeded during refergeration, TBA-reaction substances(TBARS) absorbances increased and the corresponding HPLC peak areas also increased proportationately. The correlation coefficient between the HPLC peak areas and MA-TBA absorbance were 0.9979. The treatemtn of cetrimide, an ion pairing agent, gave a complete resolution of the MA-TBA complex and the butanol extraction of the complex increased its recovery by 37.8%. Both cetrimide treatment and butanol extraction are essential steps for analyzing MA-TBA complex in ground pork wiht HPLC. A reliable and specific measurement of NA-TBA in ground pork was successfully performed using HPLC.
