Using single factorial experiment design, pigs were allotted to three groups(four pens/group and six pigs/pen). Diet treatments were a corn-soybean meal(control group) and a corn-soybean meal with 1% probiotics(probiotics group) or 80 mg kg-1colistin sulfate(antibiotics group). Pigs were slaughtered when pigs of the lightest averaged 90 kg(157 days of age). There was no difference(p&gt;0.05) in average daily gain or feed/gain, and the average daily feed intake of the antibiotics group was higher than that of the probiotics and the control groups(p&lt;0.05). Diet supplemented with probiotics reduced the drip loss and cooking loss of pork(p&lt;0.05). Dietary supplementation with probiotics significantly decreased the content of triglycerides, lowdensity lipoprotein and urea nitrogen in serum(p&lt;0.05), and increased the content of high-density lipoprotein in serum(p&lt;0.05). These results suggested improving effects of dietary probiotics on pork quality and serum metabolism in growing-finishing pigs.展开更多

The farming process information system supplies early warning for the usage of drugs and feed additives based on data of every individual pig and timely uploading all events data to remote traceability database when pigs are sold; the PDA data collecting system can collect farming events data for pigs fed by farmers and submit to the center database by GPRS; the web-based Tianjin's pork traceability platform can integrate all identifications and related pork quality data from farming, slaughtering to marketing by online, and achieve pork tracking from product origin to consumption and tracing in the turnover direction. It is feasible to realize pork quality traceability by identification technologies developed and/or integrated, metadata specifications designed, three data-recording systems deyeloped, and web-inquiring platform established. Some individual technical bottlenecks will be resolved with the development of communication technologies. The full implementation in Tianjin, China, will supply technical support for guaranteeing the quality and safety of pork production and meeting consumer's demands.展开更多

Sixteen animals were used, 4 females and 4 males from each breed. Animals had 80-100 kg of live weight. The longissimus muscle between the 5th thoracic vertebra and the 10th lumbar vertebra was used in the analysis. Samples were analysed for protein, fat, pigments, ashes, dry mater, water-holding capacity, and texture. Results of fat and pigments contents indicate signiifcant (P〈0.05 and P〈0.01) differences for all treatments. For protein, ashes, dry mater, water-holding capacity and texture, no signiifcant differences were found for sex. In the analysis of fatty acids composition, ten were detected, being the main ones C16:0, C18:0, C16:1, C18:1, C18:2. There was a predominance of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), followed by saturated (SFA) and polyunsaturated (PUFA). Differences were signiifcant for sex (P〈0.01) and breed (P〈0.01). Preto Alentejano breed and females presented the higher percentages of SFA (P〈0.01) and MUFA (P〈0.001) fatty acids. Differences between breeds might be due to breed production system and feed differences.展开更多

The hyperspectral scattering images of dO fresh pork samples were collected at the wavelength of 400 -I 100 nm, and the scattering profiles were fitted via Lorontzian distribution ( LD ) function to give three parameters a ( asymptotic value ), b (peak value ) and c ( full width at b/2). Stepwise discrimination was performed to determine the optimal wavelengths combinations. The LD parameters combinations (a, b and c) of optimal wavelengths were used to establish multi-linear regression (MLR) models to predict the pork attributes. The models were able to predict pork with high correlation coefficients of 0.92 for drip-loss, 0.94, 0.92 and 0.98 respectively for color parameters ( a * , b* and L * ), and for tenderness and pH value the models gave the correlation coefficients of 0.69 and 0.76, respectively. These results showed that the hyperspectral scattering technique was capable of predicting quality parameters of perk. The study provides an efficient means for rapid and nondestructive determination of pork quality simultaneously.展开更多

The hydrolysates were formulated (0-3%, w/w) into pork patties to determine the antioxidant efficacy. 0.02% BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole) was used as a positive control. Lipid oxidation in patties during storage was analyzed by measuring the TBARS and protein carbonyl content. The results showed that bone protein hydrolysates possessed significant antioxidant activity, and antioxidant activity increased with the increasing hydrolysates concentration. Sensory evaluation indicated that bone protein hydrolysates improved the color and decreased lipid oxidation flavor of pork patties. The 2% bone hydrolysates possessed the highest antioxidant activity and better sensory quality, and its effect was closed to 0.02% BHA.展开更多

Based on a consumer test of the appearance, three marinades were chosen for further investigation: an oregano, an acerola and a Dijon marinade, the Dijon marinade containing acerola, sumac and oregano. A barbecue and a sumac marinade were not included in the further study. In a home use test, consumers barbecued pork chops with the three marinades. Most of the consumers preferred the oregano and the Dijon marinade, while the acerola marinade was less liked. After controlled cooking using both direct and indirect heat to a core temperature of 65°C and 80°C, the content of the heterocyclic aromatic amines (HCA) PhiP, MeIQx, DiMeIQx, Harman and Norharman was analysed. All of the marinades reduced the content of MeIQx and DiMeIQx, although only with indirect heat, while PhiP was reduced using both grilling methods. Surprisingly, in particular the content of Harman—and to a lesser extent Norhaman—was very high in the Dijon-marinated chops. The results demonstrated that it was possible to develop well-liked marinades that can reduce the formation of selected HCAs.展开更多

文摘A total of 72 growing-finishing pigs(56 days old) were used to investigate the effects of dietary probiotics on growing performance, pork quality and serum metabolites. Using single factorial experiment design, pigs were allotted to three groups(four pens/group and six pigs/pen). Diet treatments were a corn-soybean meal(control group) and a corn-soybean meal with 1% probiotics(probiotics group) or 80 mg kg-1colistin sulfate(antibiotics group). Pigs were slaughtered when pigs of the lightest averaged 90 kg(157 days of age). There was no difference(p&gt;0.05) in average daily gain or feed/gain, and the average daily feed intake of the antibiotics group was higher than that of the probiotics and the control groups(p&lt;0.05). Diet supplemented with probiotics reduced the drip loss and cooking loss of pork(p&lt;0.05). Dietary supplementation with probiotics significantly decreased the content of triglycerides, lowdensity lipoprotein and urea nitrogen in serum(p&lt;0.05), and increased the content of high-density lipoprotein in serum(p&lt;0.05). These results suggested improving effects of dietary probiotics on pork quality and serum metabolism in growing-finishing pigs.

文摘In order to meet government supervision of pork production safety as well as consumer's right to know what they buy and protect the public safety of pork food, this study adopts animal identification, intelligent personal digital assistant (PDA) reading and writing, general packet radio service (GPRS), and other information technologies, proposes a pork tracking and traceability inferstructure based on pork production substrace flow and data flow, designs the metadata structure and related datatbases for farming, slaughtering, and retailing sector based on intensive pig farming and smallhold pig farming, develops three different data-recording systems, and finally establishes a public network platform for the information inquiry in light of "the administrative rules on identification and rearing files for animal and poultry" in China. The farming process information system supplies early warning for the usage of drugs and feed additives based on data of every individual pig and timely uploading all events data to remote traceability database when pigs are sold; the PDA data collecting system can collect farming events data for pigs fed by farmers and submit to the center database by GPRS; the web-based Tianjin's pork traceability platform can integrate all identifications and related pork quality data from farming, slaughtering to marketing by online, and achieve pork tracking from product origin to consumption and tracing in the turnover direction. It is feasible to realize pork quality traceability by identification technologies developed and/or integrated, metadata specifications designed, three data-recording systems deyeloped, and web-inquiring platform established. Some individual technical bottlenecks will be resolved with the development of communication technologies. The full implementation in Tianjin, China, will supply technical support for guaranteeing the quality and safety of pork production and meeting consumer's demands.

文摘This work aimed to evaluate the physical-chemical characteristics of pork from a local breed (Portuguese black pork called Preto Alentejano) and a commercial breed. Sixteen animals were used, 4 females and 4 males from each breed. Animals had 80-100 kg of live weight. The longissimus muscle between the 5th thoracic vertebra and the 10th lumbar vertebra was used in the analysis. Samples were analysed for protein, fat, pigments, ashes, dry mater, water-holding capacity, and texture. Results of fat and pigments contents indicate signiifcant (P〈0.05 and P〈0.01) differences for all treatments. For protein, ashes, dry mater, water-holding capacity and texture, no signiifcant differences were found for sex. In the analysis of fatty acids composition, ten were detected, being the main ones C16:0, C18:0, C16:1, C18:1, C18:2. There was a predominance of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), followed by saturated (SFA) and polyunsaturated (PUFA). Differences were signiifcant for sex (P〈0.01) and breed (P〈0.01). Preto Alentejano breed and females presented the higher percentages of SFA (P〈0.01) and MUFA (P〈0.001) fatty acids. Differences between breeds might be due to breed production system and feed differences.

文摘In this study, fresh pork tenderness, drip-loss, pH value and color parameters ( CIE, a * , b * and L * values) were simultaneously predicted using hyperspectral scattering imaging (HSI) technique. The hyperspectral scattering images of dO fresh pork samples were collected at the wavelength of 400 -I 100 nm, and the scattering profiles were fitted via Lorontzian distribution ( LD ) function to give three parameters a ( asymptotic value ), b (peak value ) and c ( full width at b/2). Stepwise discrimination was performed to determine the optimal wavelengths combinations. The LD parameters combinations (a, b and c) of optimal wavelengths were used to establish multi-linear regression (MLR) models to predict the pork attributes. The models were able to predict pork with high correlation coefficients of 0.92 for drip-loss, 0.94, 0.92 and 0.98 respectively for color parameters ( a * , b* and L * ), and for tenderness and pH value the models gave the correlation coefficients of 0.69 and 0.76, respectively. These results showed that the hyperspectral scattering technique was capable of predicting quality parameters of perk. The study provides an efficient means for rapid and nondestructive determination of pork quality simultaneously.

文摘Bone protein hydrolysates were prepared by limited alcalase hydrolysis (5 h). The hydrolysates were formulated (0-3%, w/w) into pork patties to determine the antioxidant efficacy. 0.02% BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole) was used as a positive control. Lipid oxidation in patties during storage was analyzed by measuring the TBARS and protein carbonyl content. The results showed that bone protein hydrolysates possessed significant antioxidant activity, and antioxidant activity increased with the increasing hydrolysates concentration. Sensory evaluation indicated that bone protein hydrolysates improved the color and decreased lipid oxidation flavor of pork patties. The 2% bone hydrolysates possessed the highest antioxidant activity and better sensory quality, and its effect was closed to 0.02% BHA.

文摘The stewed pork balls with brown sauce(SPB-BS)in China is well known for its delicacy and preferred by consumers.Maillard reaction(MR)is widespread in SPB-BS due to the use of sugar,meat and sauce in the thermal process.However,there is a lack of research on its risk and flavor by MR.By solid phase extraction combined with HPLC-MS,4 kinds of harmful compounds including acrylamide(AA),heterocyclic aromatic amines(HAAs),4-methylimidazole(4-MEI)and furan were analyzed in SPB-BS and their amounts ranged 0.05–0.50 mg/kg.The quantitative formula was proposed to evaluate the risk value of the SPB-BS,after taking into account the content,acceptable daily intake(ADI)and carcinogenicity of each compound.The risk values were in range of 0.57–37.93,suggesting that the risk caused by MR in SPB-BS was low.By head space-solid phase microextraction combined with GC-MS,57 volatile compounds in SPB-BS were identified with the dominant contribution of alcohols,aldehydes,acids and esters.Based on the structures of these compounds and the composition of SPB-BS,lipid oxidation and MR are inferred to be responsible for the formation of the harmful and volatile compounds.In addition,the added sauces and oil provides the main precursors to form the harmful and volatile compounds in SPB-BS,so it is necessary to point out a balance between them in the further study.
文摘Five marinades were developed using natural antioxidants. Based on a consumer test of the appearance, three marinades were chosen for further investigation: an oregano, an acerola and a Dijon marinade, the Dijon marinade containing acerola, sumac and oregano. A barbecue and a sumac marinade were not included in the further study. In a home use test, consumers barbecued pork chops with the three marinades. Most of the consumers preferred the oregano and the Dijon marinade, while the acerola marinade was less liked. After controlled cooking using both direct and indirect heat to a core temperature of 65°C and 80°C, the content of the heterocyclic aromatic amines (HCA) PhiP, MeIQx, DiMeIQx, Harman and Norharman was analysed. All of the marinades reduced the content of MeIQx and DiMeIQx, although only with indirect heat, while PhiP was reduced using both grilling methods. Surprisingly, in particular the content of Harman—and to a lesser extent Norhaman—was very high in the Dijon-marinated chops. The results demonstrated that it was possible to develop well-liked marinades that can reduce the formation of selected HCAs.
