Abstract
To explore the changes in water status and protein characteristics of Tibetan pork (TP) under modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) with different oxygen concentrations compared to Duroc×Landrace×Yorkshire pork (DLY), the water holding capacity (WHC), water distribution, protein oxidation, and conformation of both types were determined. Results indicate that under MAP, TP pork and DLY pork exhibited higher water retention and lower protein oxidation compared to air packaging. However, with increased oxygen concentration in the MAP, protein oxidation intensified, leading to reduced WHC in the pork. Compared to DLY pork, TP pork in different packaging conditions maintained the integrity of protein secondary and tertiary structures, reducing protein cross-linking aggregation. The lower content of P3 in the two-dimensional relaxation spectra, shorter T1 and T2 relaxation times, and higher proton density suggest better water retention properties in Tibetan pork. These findings support the development of long-distance preservation and transportation technologies for TP pork.
期刊介绍:
Food Chemistry: X, one of three Open Access companion journals to Food Chemistry, follows the same aims, scope, and peer-review process. It focuses on papers advancing food and biochemistry or analytical methods, prioritizing research novelty. Manuscript evaluation considers novelty, scientific rigor, field advancement, and reader interest. Excluded are studies on food molecular sciences or disease cure/prevention. Topics include food component chemistry, bioactives, processing effects, additives, contaminants, and analytical methods. The journal welcome Analytical Papers addressing food microbiology, sensory aspects, and more, emphasizing new methods with robust validation and applicability to diverse foods or regions.
