  • REDUCTION of PURINE CONTENT in COMMONLY CONSUMED MEAT PRODUCTS THROUGH RINSING and COOKING by Anna Ellington (Under the Directio
    REDUCTION OF PURINE CONTENT IN COMMONLY CONSUMED MEAT PRODUCTS THROUGH RINSING AND COOKING by Anna Ellington (Under the direction of Yen-Con Hung) Abstract The commonly consumed meat products ground beef, ground turkey, and bacon were analyzed for purine content before and after a rinsing treatment. The rinsing treatment involved rinsing the meat samples using a wrist shaker in 5:1 ratio water: sample for 2 or 5 minutes then draining or centrifuging to remove water. The total purine content of 25% fat ground beef significantly decreased (p<0.05) from 8.58 mg/g protein to a range of 5.17-7.26 mg/g protein after rinsing treatments. After rinsing and cooking an even greater decrease was seen ranging from 4.59-6.32 mg/g protein. The total purine content of 7% fat ground beef significantly decreased from 7.80 mg/g protein to a range of 5.07-5.59 mg/g protein after rinsing treatments. A greater reduction was seen after rinsing and cooking in the range of 4.38-5.52 mg/g protein. Ground turkey samples showed no significant changes after rinsing, but significant decreases were seen after rinsing and cooking. Bacon samples showed significant decreases from 6.06 mg/g protein to 4.72 and 4.49 after 2 and 5 minute rinsing and to 4.53 and 4.68 mg/g protein after 2 and 5 minute rinsing and cooking. Overall, this study showed that rinsing foods in water effectively reduces total purine content and subsequent cooking after rinsing results in an even greater reduction of total purine content.

There are regions in the world where horse meat is widely used as the main meat food product. Horse meat is now available in France, Belgium and Sweden, where horse meat sales outnumber mutton meat sales. In France, horse meat consumption is 0.4% of all meat consumed. There are about 750 horse meat butchers in the country and about 11,000 farmers who raise horses for sale for meat. The main part of horse meat products that produced in France are exported to Italy. Italians consume twice as much horse meat as the French and love the meat of young horses, while the French prefer red meat from older horses [1].

  • Variation of Amino Acids in White and Red Meat of Skipjack Tuna (Katsuwonus Pelamis) Caught from Arabian Sea
    ISSN: 2319-8753 International Journal of Innovative Research in Science, Engineering and Technology Vol. 2, Issue 7, July 2013 VARIATION OF AMINO ACIDS IN WHITE AND RED MEAT OF SKIPJACK TUNA (KATSUWONUS PELAMIS) CAUGHT FROM ARABIAN SEA Remya James1, Vineeth Kumar T V2 Assistant Professor, Department of Zoology, St. Joseph‟s College for Women, Alappuzha, Kerala, India1 Research Scholar, Chemical Biology Laboratory, Rajiv Gandhi Centre for Biotechnology, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India2 Abstract: Amino acid profile of the white and red (dark) meat in Katsuwonus pelamis, a tuna fish, caught from Arabian Sea in the month of January, was estimated using gas chromatography. There was no significant variation between red and white meat samples for the total percentage of essential and non-essential amino acids which constitute 52.3% and 47.7% respectively. Non essential amino acids asparagine and glutamine, and semi essential amino acid cysteine were not detected in both, red meat and white meat samples. Glutamate makes up approximately 13% in both samples which can be considered the highest. Certain individual amino acids, histidine, lysine and arginine showed variation between red and white meat samples. Keywords: red meat; white meat; amino acid; lysine; Katsuwonus pelamis I. INTRODUCTION Fish protein, like that of meat, is easily digestible and favorably complements dietary protein provided by beef, pork, chicken, cereals and legumes that are typically consumed in many developing countries (Winton and Winton, 2000). The protein in fish makes up complete protein source and tuna is a good source of high quality proteins. Tuna have white flesh and flesh that is pink to dark red.

Genes & Nutrition (2019) 14:35 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12263-019-0656-4 REVIEW Open Access Biomarkers of meat and seafood intake: an extensive literature review Cătălina Cuparencu1*† , Giulia Praticó1†, Lieselot Y. Hemeryck2†, Pedapati S. C. Sri Harsha3†, Stefania Noerman4, Caroline Rombouts2, Muyao Xi1, Lynn Vanhaecke2, Kati Hanhineva4, Lorraine Brennan3 and Lars O. Dragsted1 Abstract Meat, including fish and shellfish, represents a valuable constituent of most balanced diets. Consumption of different types of meat and fish has been associated with both beneficial and adverse health effects. While white meats and fish are generally associated with positive health outcomes, red and especially processed meats have been associated with colorectal cancer and other diseases. The contribution of these foods to the development or prevention of chronic diseases is still not fully elucidated. One of the main problems is the difficulty in properly evaluating meat intake, as the existing self-reporting tools for dietary assessment may be imprecise and therefore affected by systematic and random errors. Dietary biomarkers measured in biological fluids have been proposed as possible objective measurements of the actual intake of specific foods and as a support for classical assessment methods. Good biomarkers for meat intake should reflect total dietary intake of meat, independent of source or processing and should be able to differentiate meat consumption from that of other protein-rich foods; alternatively, meat intake biomarkers should be specific to each of the different meat sources (e.g., red vs. white; fish, bird, or mammal) and/or cooking methods. In this paper, we present a systematic investigation of the scientific literature while providing a comprehensive overview of the possible biomarker(s) for the intake of different types of meat, including fish and shellfish, and processed and heated meats according to published guidelines for biomarker reviews (BFIrev).

The final analytic sample after exclusions was 72,149. Cox proportional hazards regression was used and hazard ratios (HR) and confidence intervals (CI) were obtained. Diet was assessed by a validated quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), calibrated using six 24-h dietary recalls.
