Effect of Water Activity on Lipid Oxidation and Protein Solubility in Freeze-dried Beef during Storage

Ground beef patties (15% fat) were freeze-dried to different a(w) endpoints and stored at 25°C or 49°C. Water activity, total moisture (%), lipid oxidation (TBARS@450nm), and protein solubility were evaluated. TBARS @450nm was favored at 49°C, but not at 25°C except at high a(w) range (p < 0.05),...

Zusammenfassung:Ground beef patties (15% fat) were freeze-dried to different a(w) endpoints and stored at 25°C or 49°C. Water activity, total moisture (%), lipid oxidation (TBARS@450nm), and protein solubility were evaluated. TBARS @450nm was favored at 49°C, but not at 25°C except at high a(w) range (p < 0.05), whereas protein solubility was greater at 25°C than 49°C (p < 0.05). TBARS@450nm values at 49°C were generally greatest at low aw range (p > 0.05). Protein solubility was lowest at medium a(w) at 49°C (p < 0.05), while at 25°C low a(w) protected protein solubility better than other low or high a(w) values.
