KUŞBURNU İNFÜZYONU İLE MARINASYONUN HİNDİ GÖĞÜS FİLETOLARININ KALİTE PARAMETRELERİ ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİLERİ

This research investigates the effects of using rosehip infusion as a marinade on the physicochemical, technological, textural properties, and oxidative stability of turkey breast meat. The chemical composition, technological properties, color and textural parameters, pH, and lipid oxidation of marinated turkey samples were determined. Marinades used in reformulated groups were prepared with rosehip at different concentrations (10 g (R1), 15 g (R2), and 20 g (R3)/150 mL). Rosehip-infused marinated samples exhibited lower pH, altered color parameters, enhanced water holding capacity and cooking yield, and increased marinade uptake (especially in R3). In texture analysis, it was observed that the hardness of the samples decreased, while the values of cohesiveness and springiness increased. Notably, rosehip infusion demonstrated antioxidative effects, lowering TBARS values compared to the control. In summary, marination with rosehip infusion presents a promising method to improve the technological and textural qualities of turkey breast meat while protecting against lipid oxidation.
