Abstract
This study aimed to determine the oxidizability of speck fat and the efficiency of natural antioxidants extracted from sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and oregano (Origanum vulgare L.) in inhibiting its oxidation using isothermal calorimetry. The rate of radical initiation (Ri) was controlled using azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) (Ri = 4.0 ± 0.1 × 10−9 M/s) to accurately determine the kinetic parameters. Propagation rate constant (kp) and oxidizability index (O.I.) for speck fat were found to be 6.88 ± 0.08 × 10−3 M-1/2 s-1/2 and 21.77 ± 0.20 M−1 s−1, respectively. In terms of antioxidant efficiency (A.E.), oregano extract exhibited (P < 0.05) greater value compared to sage extract. When compared to synthetic antioxidants, oregano extract did not report significant different A.E. values. Furthermore, the rate constant of inhibition (kinh) for both the extracts was in the order of 103 M−1 s−1. These findings highlight the potential of isothermal calorimetry to determine kinetic parameters from oxidation measurements for solid fats and the role of natural extracts in food preservation.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Meat Science is to serve as a suitable platform for the dissemination of interdisciplinary and international knowledge on all factors influencing the properties of meat. While the journal primarily focuses on the flesh of mammals, contributions related to poultry will be considered if they enhance the overall understanding of the relationship between muscle nature and meat quality post mortem. Additionally, papers on large birds (e.g., emus, ostriches) as well as wild-captured mammals and crocodiles will be welcomed.
