Summary

Freezing using liquid carbon dioxide was compared with conventional air-blast freezing during storage over a 6-month period. The study investigated dorsal muscles from 45 horses and demonstrated that on thawing, weight loss was lower in meat frozen using carbon dioxide. The organoleptic qualities such as odour - intensity and olfactory stimulation - were preserved to a greater extent. Freezing using cryogenic technology also maintains flavour to a greater extent. During storage for a period of 2 weeks to 6 months, the sensorial quality of meat frozen using carbon dioxide was reduced more than that of meat frozen using air-blast-freezing technology.
