Mechanism of improving emulsion stability of emulsion-type sausage with oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) powder as a phosphate replacement

초록

This research evaluated the potentiality of oyster mushroom powder (OMP) as a phosphate alternative by improving emulsion stability of emulsion-type sausage. Sausage without phosphate (NC), with 0.2% sodium triphosphate (PC), and with 1 and 2% OMP (M1 and M2) were prepared. The OMP addition improved the physicochemical properties of sausage, effectively prevented lipid oxidation, and delayed the growth of aerobic bacteria during 28 days of cold storage compared to NC. The M1 and M2 improved the emulsion stability similar to PC. M2 had the highest water holding capacity and apparent viscosity and the lowest cooking loss (P < 0.05). The addition of OMP resulted in different textural characteristics from that of phosphate due to the formation of emulsion structures randomly entrapped by filament-like components, which were derived from polysaccharides or the conjugates between polysaccharides and proteins. According to the results of this study, emulsion stability promoted by OMP was mainly due to the polysaccharides, which are involved in enhancing viscosity and steric hindrance.
