Type of article: Article

Summary

GLUTATHIONE PEROXIDASE (GSH-PX) ACTIVITY WAS MEASURED AND SELENIUM VALUES OBTAINED ON BEEF SEMITENDINOSUS MUSCLES. TBA NUMBERS WERE DETERMINED ON STORED, GROUND BEEF PATTIES PREPARED FROM THE SAME SAMPLES. GSH-PX ACTIVITY COULD BE ASSAYED DIRECTLY FROM THE MUSCLE EXTRACT. IT WAS VIABLE THROUGHOUT THE RIGOR PROCESS AND EXHIBITED ACTIVITY WITHIN THE EXPECTED MEAT PH RANGE. A STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT CORRELATION BETWEEN GSH-PX AND MUSCLE SELENIUM WAS OBTAINED. STUDIES ENCOMPASSING THE TOTAL GSH-PX SYSTEM ARE NEEDED TO DETERMINE IF THIS SYSTEM CAN SERVE TO PROTECT RAW BEEF FROM OXIDATIVE DETERIORATION DURING STORAGE.
