The effects of K2HP0,,, NaCl and oil temperature on emulsion capacity (EC) and microstructure of fresh and frozen Turkish beef was studied by utilizing a model system. EC of frozen meat was 6.4% higher than fresh meat. EC also increased with increasing phosphate levels increasing 8.5 and 10.4% over the control with 0.50 and 0.75% phosphate respectively. EC increased 1.6% for 3.0% salt over 2.5% salt. Microstructure photographs of the phosphate containing emulsions indicated the protein aggregates diminished and the emulsion was more homogeneous.
