Investigating the effect of meat products ingredients and reaction mechanisms for enchancing savory and toasted aromas in dry cured meat products
2023
En la carne cocinada, las notas olfativas cárnicas y tostadas son producidas mediante reacciones de degradación y transformación de aminoácidos que contienen átomos de azufre (Cys, Cis y Met), aminoácidos nitrogenados (Pro y Orn), así como de la vitamina tiamina. Sin embargo, en los productos curados madurados no se conocen los mecanismos de formación de los compuestos aromáticos que producen notas cárnicas y tostadas, así como su impacto en el aroma curado-madurado. Entre los productos cárnicos curados madurados que se elaboran en el área mediterránea se encuentran los sometidos a procesos de fermentación como los embutidos fermentados, y los curados-madurados como los lomos y jamones cura…
Chemical and physico‐chemical changes during the dry‐cured processing of deer loin
2019
The changes on chemical composition, physico‐chemical parameters, free fatty acids and free amino acids content of dry‐cured deer loin were investigated at day 0, 30 and 60 of dry‐cured process. On the whole, except for pH values (≈5.6) and composition (fat: 4.6–5.2%; protein: ≈73%; ash: ≈17.5%) that did not show differences between the processing days, the other physico‐chemical parameters were affected by curing process. Colour parameters and moisture (from 69 to 38.4%) decreased while the hardness increase from 12.35 to 342 N and lipid oxidation (from 0.2 to 0.52 mg MDA/kg) increased as dry‐cured stage progresses. In similar way, free fatty acid (2250 mg per 100 g of fat at 0 day and 594…
A new system for animal products traceability and authentication: Use of DNA analysis of natural tracers and example of application to dry cured hams
2010
A few DNA based approaches have been developed to trace animal products from the farm to the consumer “fork”. These approaches make use of the animal DNA that can be recovered during all steps of t...
Application of non-invasive technologies in dry-cured ham: An overview
2019
Background: Dry-cured ham is one of the most valued food products by Mediterranean consumers. In this sense, the appropriate development of its different production stages is essential to ensure the quality requirements. For this reason, non-invasive technologies have gained popularity and have been reported as useful not only to ensure the food safety of different products, but also to monitor fundamental stages in the production process, such as the salting stage, to analyze the content of different compounds without sample losses, and to correct possible defects in the final product. Scope and approach: This work has been focused on summarizing the studies that describe and have successf…
Mycotoxins in dry-cured meats: A review
2017
Dry-cured meats products are consumed in various regions of the world and, consumers are increasingly demanding better quality and safety of these products. Some fungal species can produce mycotoxins in drycured meats, such as aflatoxins and ochratoxins, which, when ingested, can produce carcinogenic and mutagenic effects in humans. Contamination of these products can occur at different points of the production chain, from the field (animal contaminated with feed) to the production or storage of the final product. Although the presence of mycotoxins in drycured meats has been reported in several regions of the world, the presence of these contaminants are not legislated in most countries. T…
Volatile components of dry-cured ham
1991
The volatile components of dry-cured ham were isolated by vacuum distillation and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The structures of 76 molecules were identified by mass spectrometry, cochromatography, or measured Kovats indices. The compounds identified may come from the catabolism of the main constituent parts of the meat (glucids, lipids and protids) during the curing of the hams, from the pig feed, or from technological processes. The volatile compounds extracted from 50 g of ham according to the technique described correspond to a chromatographical surface equivalent to 0.12 mg of the dodecane internal standard, or approximately 2.4 ppm of the weight of the sample.
