Color Characteristics of Irradiated Vacuum‐Packaged Pork, Beef, and Turkey

Abstract: Changes in color of irradiated meat were observed to be species-dependent. Irradiated pork and turkey became redder due to irradiation but irradiated beef a* values decreased and yellowness increased with dose and storage time. The extent of color change was irradiation dose-dependent and was not related to myoglobin concentration. Visual evaluation indicated pork and turkey increased in redness whereas beef decreased in redness as dose levels increased. Reflectance spectra showed that irradiation induced an o… Show more

“…At all aging times, nonirradiated steaks had higher (P < 0.05) a* values (indicating a redder color) than irradiated steaks, which is consistent with the results of Nanke et al (1998). Further analysis at 1, 3, and 14 d postirradiation revealed that irradiated steaks from steers in the vitamin E supplementation group were less red in color (P < 0.05) compared to irradiated steaks not supplemented with vitamin E (Table 2).…”

“…Nanke et al (1998) reported similar values on vacuumpackaged beef strip loin steaks that were irradiated at specified doses. In the current study, saturation index and hue angle were calculated to determine the amount of discoloration incurred in the product (Little, 1975).…”

“…Nanke et al (1998), , Zhao et al (1996), and have documented irradiation-induced color changes under various packaging, environmental, and irradiation conditions. These studies generally agree that pork longissimus dorsi becomes redder due to low-dose irradiation.…”

“…However, the redness of both the sausage batter and final product were decreased by irradiation of raw material (p<0.05). Nanke et al (1998) reported that the red color in irradiated vacuum packaged pork was largely due to oxymyoglobin (MbO 2…”
