In this study, the effect of hemin and non-heme iron on the biochemical and gelling properties of chicken myofibrillar protein (MP) was compared. Results revealed that free radicals from hemin incubated MP were significantly higher than that in FeCl incubated samples (P < 0.05), and had higher ability to initiate protein oxidation. The carbonyl content, surface hydrophobicity, random coil increased with oxidant concentration, whereas the total sulfhydryl and α-helix content decreased in both oxidizing systems. The turbidity and particle size were increased after oxidant treatment, indicating oxidation promoted the cross-linking and aggregation of protein, and the degree of aggregation was higher in hemin treated MP compared with that incubated with FeCl. The biochemical changes of MP resulted in an uneven and loose gel network structure, which significantly reduced the gel strength and water holding capacity (WHC) of the gel.

Acidic marinades are commonly used to improve the quality meat products. However, no study has been performed to determine the effects of rhubarb juice as a marinating liquid on the quality parameters of chicken breast fillets. The aim of the present study was to identify the bioactive compounds (organic acids, polyphenols, and volatiles) in the juice of rhubarb and to determine the effect of rhubarb juice as a marinade on the microbiological (total viable count, psychrotrophs, lactic acid bacteria, sulfate-reducing anaerobes, and yeast-molds) and physico-chemical properties (drip loss, cooking loss, water holding capacity, pH, color, malondialdehyde, total volatile base nitrogen, and texture profiles), sensory attributes, and microbial safety (Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Listeria monocytogenes) of chicken breast fillets during a 15-day refrigerated storage.

Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) is a hazardous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon that accumulates in several environmental matrices as a result of incomplete combustion. Its presence, carcinogenic properties, and tendency for bioaccumulation provide significant risks to human health and the environment. The objective of this study is to create an immunoassay for the detection of benzo[a]pyrene utilizing immunoglobulin Y antibodies.

Salmonellae remain a prominent issue for poultry products regarding food safety. A predominant source of broiler carcass contamination at processing is from crop rupturing and subsequent contamination of the carcass during evisceration. Chlorhexidine (CHX) salts are commonly used in dental products for their antimicrobial capabilities.
