Assessment of quality attributes of porcine blood and liver hydrolysates incorporated pork loaves stored under aerobic and modified atmospheric packaging.

Lipid oxidation and microbial proliferations were studied in pork loaves prepared with incorporation of blood and liver protein hydrolysates stored in aerobic and MAP packaging for 28 and 42 days at 4 ± 1 ºC. In in-vitro trials selected levels i.e. blood hydrolysate (T1 and T3-600 mg/g), and liver hydrolysate (T2 and T4-600 mg/g), control without hydrolysate (C1-00 and C2-00 mg/g) w/w of emulsion, were added into pork loaves and packaged under aerobic (C1, T1 and T2) and MAP (C2, T3 and T4) condition. Physico-chemicals as pH, water activity , titratable acidity, lipid-oxidations, color profile, textural indices, microbial qualities and sensorial properties were analyzed. Significant ( p  < 0.05) lower lipid oxidation, microbial proliferations and decrease in sensory attributes were seen for tested groups and MAP than aerobic packaging. It can be concluded that pork loaves containing porcine blood and liver hydrolysates can be successfully stored upto 28th days in aerobically packed and 42 days in MAP condition at refrigerated storage with acceptable physico-chemical, oxidative stability, microbiological and sensory quality. Whereas, pork loves prepared with blood hydrolysate (T3-600 mg/g), packaged under MAP condition were superior for all studied attributes than other groups. Blood and liver hydrolysate might be used as an alternative to synthetic preservative for meat preservation.
