Jerky-Inspired Fabrication of Anisotropic Hydrogels with Widely Tunable Mechanical Properties

Abstract: Jerky is a type of meat product traditionally produced using a hang-drying process to achieve desirable textural properties. Inspired by the jerky processing, we present a strategy for fabricating strong alginate hydrogels with highly anisotropic structures via stretching and drying under constant stress. The tunable stretching process endowed the alginate hydrogels with adjustable mechanical properties and structural features by promoting the orientation and aggregation of the constituent polymers. At a high … Show more

“…The moisture contents of the cooked meats were all significantly (p < 0.05) lower than those of the raw meat, and similar results have been reported when cooking Polypterus bichir meat [28]. Frying, roasting and steaming are high-temperature processes; this causes the denaturation of protein, causing the moisture-holding ability of the meat to decrease [29,30]. This may be why cooking resulted in the moisture contents of the samples significantly (p < 0.05) decreasing compared to those of the raw meat.…”
