Summary

CHICKEN BREAST AND LEG MEAT SAMPLES, WHICH WERE FROZEN FOR 3 MONTHS OR 6 MONTHS AT 255 K (-18 DEG C) WERE COOKED IN MICROWAVE AND CONVECTION OVENS. AFTER 6 MONTHS STORAGE, MALONALDEHYDE IN FAT FROM MEAT SAMPLES INCREASED 2. 5 FOLD, WHILE THE FLUORESCENCE EXCITATION (360 NM) AND EMISSION (440 NM) SPECTRA INCREASED BY 34%. FAT FROM MEAT COOKED IN A CONVECTION OVEN AVERAGED 83% HIGHER MALONALDEHYDE CONCENTRATION AND 21% HIGHER FLUORESCENCE COMPARED TO LEVELS BEFORE COOKING. LEVELS OF LIPID OXIDATION PRODUCTS WERE NOT SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT IN MICROWAVE COMPARED TO CONVECTION OVEN COOKING ; BUT CERTAIN SECONDARY FLUORESCENT PRODUCTS WERE HIGHER IN MEATS COOKED BY CONVECTION OVEN.
