Summary

PREBLENDS OF LEAN BEEF (20% WATER, 75 PPM NITRITE, 3 OR 6% SALT) WERE STORED AT 263, 273 AND 288 K (-10, 0 AND 15 DEG C) AND SAMPLES WERE ANALYZED AT 0, 1, 2 AND 3 DAYS OF STORAGE. EMULSIFYING CAPACITY WAS NOT SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTED BY THE AMOUNT OF SALT OR THE TEMPERATURE. WATER HOLDING CAPACITY INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY WITH THE QUANTITY OF SALT AND LENGTH OF STORAGE TIME. CORRELATION ANALYSIS RESULTED IN A NEGATIVE CORRELATION BETWEEN PH AND VISCOSITY AND A POSITIVE CORRELATION BETWEEN PH AND SALT SOLUBLE PROTEINS. SURPRISING WAS THE SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE CORRELATION BETWEEN EMULSIFYING CAPACITY AND WATER HOLDING CAPACITY.
