Effects of Lipid and Protein Oxidation on Meat Quality
Oxidation is a key factor influencing the quality of meat and its processing performance.It mainly comes from lipid oxidation and protein oxidation,which occurs in the ripening of fresh meat after slaughter and during meat process-ing and storage.The effects of lipid oxidation and protein oxidation on meat quality in recent years were reviewed in this paper.This paper not only analyzes the internal mechanism of the oxidation of lipid and protein in meat,but also ex-pounds the various factors that cause the oxidation of lipid and protein.The effects of lipid oxidation on meat color,fla-vor,nutritional value and other qualities and the effects of protein oxidation on meat color,texture,water holding capac-ity,flavor,nutritional value,digestibility,and other qualities are also analyzed in detail.In addition,the control mea-sures to reduce meat oxidation were put forward.These are hoped to provide theoretical reference for improving meat quality.
