High pressure (HP) was applied to pre-rigor rabbit muscles (PRRMs) for the manufacture of value-added gel-type products. A 2×3 factorial design was adopted for HP-treatment (100, 200 and 300MPa for 15 or 180s) to PRRMs. The HP-treated meat was used for gel preparation and determination of water mobility properties and textural profiles. Salt-soluble meat proteins (SSMP) were then extracted from meat for estimating the tertiary conformational changes (hydrophobic and sulfhydryl groups). The water-holding capacity of treated samples increased significantly (P<0.05) except for those treated at 300–180 (MPa-s). The hardness, cohesiveness and chewiness were significantly improved (P<0.05) by moderate HP-treatments (100–200MPa for 15 or 180s). HP-induced the de-polymerization of some protein components, together with unfolding and refolding of protein tertiary conformations, partly explaining the observed functionality changes. In conclusion, application of moderate HP to PRRM modified the protein conformation in a manner that improved the functional properties of gels.
