Replacement of Animal Fat by Canola Oil in Chicken Meatball

This work aimed to develop chicken meatballs with five levels of animal fat replacement by canola oil and to evaluate the products behavior during 120 days of storage. For that, analyzes were performed in the centesimal composition, fatty acid profile, shelf life and sensory parameters. The centesimal composition of the product did not present significant difference (p>0.05) between the treatments. However, canola oil addition improved the lipid profile, atherogenic and thrombogenic indexes, and the ratios of PUFAs/SFAs (0.91 to 1.61) and n6/n3 (12.63 to 3.74) in the products. Animal fat replacement and storage time also reduced meatballs Aw and pH. No differences in texture between treatments were detected after 30 days of storage. The lipid oxidation presented by mean values of TBARs ranged from 0.71 and 1.35 mg MDA/kg, indicating the onset and the regression of lipid oxidation. The color parameters exhibited a spectrum towards the luminous yellow color, predominant in both chicken meat and canola oil. The results of this study indicate that the substitution of animal fat by canola oil is promising in the production of meat products with good acceptability (70%) during the sensory analysis.(AU)

Qualidade da carne de frangos caipiras abatidos em diferentes idades / Quality meat in chicken country slaughter different ages

Neste trabalho, foram avaliadas as características físico-químicas e de composição centesimal da carne de frangos machos de três linhagens utilizadas para criação semi-intensiva: Redbro Cou Nu - Vermelho de Pescoço Pelado (Pescoço Pelado); Redbro Plumé - Vermelho de Pescoço Emplumado (Pesadão) e Gris Barre Plumé (Carijó). Foram analisadas diferenças em relação à linhagem e à idade de abate (70, 85 e 110 dias). Na carne do peito, não foi verificado efeito de linhagem sobre os parâmetros de cor (L*, a* e b*) e pH final. Houve comportamento diferenciado para as aves em relação a qualidade da carne do peito, com menores valores de maciez para linhagem Pesadão e de Perda de Peso por Cozimento para linhagem Carijó. A linhagem Carijó apresentou, para a carne de peito aos 110 dias, os menores valores de umidade e as maiores médias de proteína. Os valores de proteina reduziram para linhagem Pescoço Pelado a partir de 85 dias. Na coxa, a partir de 110 dias, foi verificada redução dos valores de L* (luminosidade) e aumento das médias de a* (vermelho). Os valores de força de cisalhamento e extrato etéreo aumentaram para peito e coxa a partir dos 110 dias. As linhagens Pesadão e Pescoço Pelado apresentaram de forma geral, melhores aspectos físico-quimicos, que são os atributos de maior preferência pelo consumidor em função deste tipo de produto.(AU)

The objective of this work was to evaluate the physical and chemical characteristics and composition of meat from male broilers from three strains used for the semi-intensive development: Redbro cou nu - Red naked neck (Label Rouge); Redbro plume - Red neck feathered (Pesadão) and Gris Barre plume (Carijó). We analyzed differences in relation to genetic and slaughter age (70, 85 and 110 days). There was no effect of strain on the color parameters (L * a * b *) and final pH of breast meat. There was different behavior for broilers to quality of breast meat with lower tenderness values for strain Pesadão and Cooking Loss for a strain Carijó. The Carijó line presented the lowest humidity and the highest average protein values for breast meat at 110 days. The protein values reduced in the Label Rouge strain from 85 days forward. In the thigh, decreased levels of L* (brightness) and increase in the average a* (redness) was found from 110 days forward. The Shear Force and ethereal extract for breast and thigh increased from 110 days forward. Pesadão and Label Rouge strains generally presented better physical-chemical attributes, which are preferred by consumers due to this type of product.(AU)

Quality of broiler meat of the free-range type submitted to diets containing alternative feedstuffs / Qualidade da carne de frangos de corte do tipo caipira submetidos a dietas contendo alimentos alternativos

The work had the intention of investigating the effect of the use of alternative feeds as part replacers in diet-formulating, evaluating the characteristic physicochemical alterations and centesimal composition of the free-range chicken. In the experiment a total of 192 (one hundred and ninety-two) birds of the Pescoço Pelado (Label Rouge) strain arranged in a completely randomized design (CRD) formed by 4 treatments (Treatment 1 (Control), Treatment 2 (10% of the inclusion of rice bran), Treatment 3 (10% of the inclusion of ground cassava leaf) and Treatment 4 (10% of the inclusion of ground leucaena hay) with 8 replicates per treatment were used. The results revealed greater values of b* (yellow), Saturation (C*) and pH for broiler meat with inclusion of ground cassava leaf and leucaena, while for the other variables of physicochemical composition, no influences of the treatments were not found. For centesimal composition the treatments showed greater values of moisture in relation to the control treatment. For sex, only a difference for the content of b* and C* was found, with higher values for female. The use of the alternative feedstuffs has not revealed marked influences on the chemical composition and quality parameters of free-ranging chickens meat with the use of replacement up to 10% in the diets.(AU)

O trabalho teve como objetivo analisar o efeito do uso alimentos alternativos como substitutos parciais na formulação das rações, avaliando as alterações características físico-químicas e de composição centesimal de frango caipira. No experimento foi utilizado um total de 192 (cento e noventa e duas) aves da linhagem Pescoço Pelado (Label Rouge), sendo organizado através de um Delineamento Inteiramente ao acaso (DIC) formado por 4 tratamentos (Tratamento1 (Controle), Tratamento 2 (10% de inclusão de Farelo de Arroz), Tratamento 3 (10% de inclusão da Folha da Mandioca Triturada) e Tratamento 4 (10% da inclusão de Feno de Leucena Triturado) com 8 repetições por tratamento. Os resultados revelaram maiores valores de b* (amarelo), Índice de Saturação (C*) e pH para carne de frango com inclusão da Folha de Mandioca e Leucena triturada, enquanto as demais variáveis de composição físico-química não foram verificado influência dos tratamentos. Para composição centesimal os tratamentos apresentaram maiores valores de umidade em relação ao tratamento controle. Para sexo, somente foi verificada diferença para o teor de b* e C*, com maiores valores para fêmea. O uso dos ingredientes alternativos não revelaram influências marcantes sobre a composição química e parâmetros de qualidade das carnes de frango caipira com o uso de substituição até 10% nas rações.(AU)

Proximate composition and meat quality of broilers reared under different production systems

In this study, the physical-chemical characteristics and proximate composition of the meat of of two strains of broilers (Paraíso Pedrês and Máster gris plumé - Super Pesadão, utilized for semi-intensive rearing) and Cobb® strain, utilized in intensive rearing systems) were evaluated. Differences related to strain and sex (males and females) were studied. Cobb® broilers were slaughtered at 45 days and the other strains at 85 days. The following characteristics were evaluated in breast and thigh meat: moisture, protein, ether extract, ashes, color (CIEL*a*b*), final pH, cooking loss (CL) and shear force (SF). Bird strain and sex influenced breast color parameters, with Cobb® presenting higher yellowness (b*) and redness (a*) means, whereas females had higher b* values and males, a* values. Paraíso Pedrês had lower SF values. As to proximate composition, there was an interaction between strain and sex, with higher ether extract values in the meat of Super Pesadão males. Cobb® birds presented higher lightness (L*) and b* values, and there was no effect of sex on color parameters. Higher pH and SF values were found in the meat of Super Pesadão birds. There was an interaction between strain and sex for b* and SF values, with higher b* values obtained with Cobb® males, while differences between sex, with superiority for females in the Paraíso Pedrês strain and for males in the Cobb® strain were found. Increased values of SF for males were obtained for Super Pesadão strain. Both Paraíso Pedrês and Super Pesadão strains presented physicochemical and proximate composition characteristics similar to those of Cobb® strain in the cuts breast and thigh so that in a few parameters, no differences between the birds kept in this two rearing systems were found.(AU)
