Irradiation and high fat content accelerated the lipid oxidation in raw meat during storage. Oxygen availability during storage, however, was more important than irradiation on the lipid oxidation and color values of raw patties. Irradiated meat produced more volatiles than nonirradiated patties, and the proportion of volatiles varied by the packagingirradiation conditions of patties. Irradiation produced many unidentified volatiles that could be responsible for the off-odor in irradiated raw meat. No single volatile components but total volatiles, however, could be used to predict lipid oxidation status of raw meat. The results show that if patties are vacuumpackaged before irradiation and during storage, raw patties can be stored for 2 weeks without problems in lipid oxidation. Many volatile components produced by irradiation were not directly related to the lipid oxidation status of raw meat but were related to the irradiation odor. Identification of these components would shed light on the mechanisms and the source of the volatiles produced by irradiation ASL-R1525Summary and Implications Irradiation and high fat content accelerated the lipid oxidation in raw meat during storage.

Changes were measured in TBARS, color, and volatiles of irradiated (4.5 kGy) pork patties with antioxidants (sesamol, quercetin, rutin, BHT, and rosemary oleoresin) during 7 days storage at 48C. Irradiation accelerated lipid oxidation of raw pork during storage. However, irradiation before cooking did not influence lipid oxidation of cooked pork during storage. Sesamol, quercetin, and BHT were effective in both irradiated raw and cooked pork during 7-days storage. Rosemary oleoresin and rutin were effective only in irradiated raw pork for 3 days. Hexanal, propanal and higher boiling components were well correlated (P , 0.01) with TBARS in cooked pork. Generation of volatiles was reduced by sesamol and quercetin, but the effects of antioxidants on color changes of raw pork patties were minor and inconsistent.
Breast and leg meat patties, prepared from turkeys fed diets containing 25, 200, 400 or 600 IU of dl-␣-tocopheryl acetate (TA) per kg diet, were irradiated at 0 or 2.5 kGy with vacuum or loose packaging. The effects of dietary TA on storage stability and production of volatiles in irradiated raw turkey meat were determined. Dietary TA at Ͼ 200 IU/kg decreased lipid oxidation and reduced total volatiles of raw turkey patties after 7-days of storage. However, the antioxidant effects of dietary TA were more notable when the patties were loosely packaged than when vacuum-packaged. Irradiation increased lipid oxidation of raw turkey meats only when loosely packaged but had limited effects on formation of total volatiles after storage at 4ЊC for 7 days or longer.
A study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary vitamin E supplementation on the storage stability and volatiles production in irradiated cooked turkey meat. Turkeys, raised with diets containing 25, 50, 75, or 100 IU of dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate (TA)/kg diet from 1 to 105 d of age, were fed with diets containing 25, 200, 400, or 600 IU of TA/kg diet from 105 to 122 d of age. Breast and leg meat patties were prepared, irradiated at 0 or 2.5 kGy dose, cooked to an internal temperature of 78 C, and stored in either vacuum or aerobic packaging. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) values gradually decreased as the dietary TA increased and > 200 IU TA/kg diet treatments were helpful in maintaining low TBARS values in irradiated breast and leg meat patties during the 7-d storage period. With vacuum-packaging, irradiated cooked breast patties developed more oxidation than nonirradiated patties but the prooxidant effect of irradiation in cooked leg meat patties was not consistent. In aerobic-packaged cooked meat, irradiated patties had lower TBARS than nonirradiated patties in both breast and leg meat stored in oxygen permeable bags for 7 d. Propanal, pentanal, hexanal, 1-pentanol, and total volatiles were highly correlated with the TBARS values of meat. However, hexanal represented the lipid oxidation status of cooked meat better than any other volatiles component. The amount of hexanal and total volatiles in cooked breast and leg meat shows decreasing trends as dietary TA increased. In vacuum packaging, irradiated breast and leg meat had higher hexanal and total volatiles content than nonirradiated meat at both 0 and 7 d of storage. In aerobic packaging, the amount of hexanal and total volatiles greatly increased in both irradiated and nonirradiated meat patties during the 7-d storage periods. The results illustrated that the antioxidant effect of TA was not strong enough to control lipid oxidation and off-odor generation in cooked meat stored under aerobic conditions because the progress of lipid oxidation in cooked meat under aerobic condition is very rapid. However, the combination of dietary TA and vacuum packaging of cooked meat immediately after cooking could be a good strategy to minimize oxidation and volatiles production in cooked meat.
