Article Abstract
The effect of salt reduction and vitamin E (α-tocopherol) fortification, at a level in excess of that required for a European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) health claim, on the quality of chicken sausages was investigated. Four formulations of chicken sausages were prepared: C (control, 1.3% NaCl, 0 mg/kg added α-tocopherol), L (low salt, 0.47% NaCl, 0 mg/kg added α-tocopherol), CE (1.3% NaCl, 200 mg/kg added α-tocopherol), LE (0.47% NaCl, 200 mg/kg added α-tocopherol). Salt or α-tocopherol level did not significantly affect the fat content, protein content, moisture content, lipid oxidation, microbial growth, cook loss or texture profile analysis values of raw or cooked sausages. There was a significant effect of salt level on the ash content of raw and cooked sausages. Colour of cooked sausages was affected by salt reduction, with fried low salt sausages being darker and yellower than control, while grilled low salt sausages were lighter and redder than control. Cooking and storage did not significantly affect α-tocopherol retention, and enough was retained to meet both the EFSA nutrient and health claims. The sensory properties of the sausages were unaffected by the reduction in salt, and by fortification with α-tocopherol.

Background And Aim: Adulteration, or the inclusion of meats not declared on the label of processed meat products, constitutes a fraudulent practice that poses a threat to public health. Sausages, which are processed meats derived from a blend of minced meats that obscure the original muscle's morphological features, are particularly prone to adulteration, making the visual detection of fraud more challenging. The research aimed to detect and measure the proportion of pork, chicken, buffalo, and beef DNA in commercially available processed meat packaged, labeled, and sold as "beef sausages" in Makassar, Indonesia.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the prevalence of nontyphoidal Salmonella in animal products (beef, chicken, and dairy) from Bejaia, Algeria, finding a 3.5% contamination rate among 1450 samples, with traditional sausages showing the highest occurrence at 14.1%.
- Fifteen serotypes were identified, with Kentucky, Anatum, and Bredeney being the most common, while antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed notable resistance to antibiotics such as tetracycline and ampicillin.
- Whole-genome sequencing revealed phylogenetic connections between different isolates, indicating early-stage contamination in the food supply chain, along with the presence of antibiotic resistance genes linked to
Double network emulsion gel prepared with different polyphenol modified egg white protein: A promising fat substitute for oral processing and fatty taste supplement.

This study investigated the effects of differential modification of the structural flexibility of egg white protein (EWP) by different polyphenols, which in turn enhanced the oral processing properties and fat perception of EWP-based double network emulsion gel (DNEG). After modification with polyphenols, the skeleton of gel became more delicate, which improved the hardness and cohesion of DNEG. This transformation was attributed to the shift from hydrophobic interactions to hydrogen and covalent bonds.

Research Background: Tuna meat is rich in protein and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), but low in cholesterol and fat, which makes it an excellent candidate for replacing beef and broiler chicken to produce higher quality meatballs. The aim of this study is to determine how substituting beef and broiler meat with tuna meat affects the chemical and sensory characteristics of meatballs.
Experimental Approach: In this study, 1000 g of meatballs were prepared from 60 % of beef or broiler chicken.
