Technological and sensory pork quality in relation to muscle and drip loss protein profiles
Przybylski, Wiesław | Jaworska, Danuta | Sante-Lhoutellier, Veronique,
Fifteen meat samples collected from pigs (Neckar hybrid line) were selected from 75 animals on the basis of their technological quality traits, and the samples were classified as normal, PSE, and acid meat. Sensory analysis was performed on the three meat categories. Total meat protein and drip loss protein were analyzed by electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), mass spectrometry, and image analysis. From a sensory point of view, PSE meat was characterized by lower color intensity, and acid meat was characterized by the lowest score of juiciness. Certain soluble proteins derived from the drip loss were associated with meat quality, especially phosphoglucomutase and the B chain of hemoglobin in the case of PSE and acid meat. Low quantities of myofibrillar proteins (myosin LC1, troponin T (TnT) and troponin C (TnC)) in meat with high glycogen levels and low pH levels resulted in a higher rate of proteolysis of myofibrillar proteins due to higher enzymatic proteolysis activity in the meat. The results of this study showed that the TnC/TnI ratio may be a pertinent marker of postmortem muscle metabolism and that this ratio is related to textural properties.
