Summary

TBA values and carbonyl content for irradiated samples of ground chicken meat were higher than for nonirradiated samples. Addition of antioxidants resulted in retardation of oxidative rancidity. Results are different for meat treated with antioxidants prior or after irradiation. Evolution of free fatty acid values and of triacylglycerol content are studied and correlated. Irradiated meats were acceptable after four weeks of storage.
