This study aimed to investigate the use of golden thread extract (GTE), clove
extract (CE), and commercially available nitrite for retarding lipid and protein
oxidation and for maintaining color stability and sensory attributes in beef
patties stored at 4℃. GTE, CE, and nitrite treatment samples were found
to be efficient in retarding lipid oxidation as all three treatments resulted in
low thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) content (p<0.05). By
using GTE, CE, and nitrite into beef patties, protein oxidation was not
developed. Incorporation of GTE and CE into beef patties maintained color
stability by protecting against the decrease of L*, a*, b*, chroma, and hue
angle values and exhibited significant influence on sensory characteristics,
including color and odor of beef patties (p<0.05). Compared to
commercially available nitrite, GTE and CE were more effective as antioxidants
for inhibiting lipid oxidation, and preserving color stability of fresh beef
patties. The study indicated that GTE and CE could be utilized efficiently to
extend the shelf life of beef patties.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
