The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of including linseed (L) or linseedplus vitamin E (LE) in the diet of Marchigiana young bulls on the oxidative stability, color measure-ments, microbiological profile and fatty acid composition (FA) of burgers treated with and without ablend of essential oils (Rosmarinus officinalis and Origanum vulgare var. hirtum) (EOs). For this aim,the burgers were analysed for pH, thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substance (TBARS) content, FerricReducing/Antioxidant Power Assay (FRAP), vitamin E and colour measurements (L, a*, b) at 3, 6,9,12 daysof storage: the TBARs were the highest in group L compared to C and LE after12 daysof storage (0.98, 0.73, and 0.63 mg MDA/kg, respectively). The TBARS content was also influencedby the use of EO compared to burgers not treated with EO (p< 0.05). The vitamin E content wasinfluenced by the diet (p< 0.01), but not by the EO. The meat of the L group showed the lowest valueof redness (a*) compared to C and LE (p< 0.01), while the use of EO did not affect colour parameters.The microbiological profile of the burgers showed a lower Pseudomonas count for L and LE at T0(2.82±0.30and 2.30±0.52 Log CFU/g, respectively) compared to C (3.90±0.38 Log CFU/g),while the EO did not influence the microbiological profile. The FA composition was analysed at0 and 12 days. The burgers from the LE group showed the highest value of polyunsaturated FAcompared to the L and C groups (p< 0.05). Our findings suggest that the inclusion of vitamin E in aconcentrate rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids is useful to limit intramuscular fat oxidation and topreserve the colour stability of burgers from young Marchigiana bulls enriched with healthy fattyacids. Moreover, linseed and vitamin E had a positive effect on microbial loads and growth dynamics,containing microbial development through time.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of including linseed (L) or linseedplus vitamin E (LE) in the diet of Marchigiana young bulls on the oxidative stability, color measure-ments, microbiological profile and fatty acid composition (FA) of burgers treated with and without ablend of essential oils (Rosmarinus officinalis and Origanum vulgare var. hirtum) (EOs). For this aim,the burgers were analysed for pH, thiobarbituric-acid-reactive substance (TBARS) content, FerricReducing/Antioxidant Power Assay (FRAP), vitamin E and colour measurements (L, a*, b) at 3, 6,9,12 daysof storage: the TBARs were the highest in group L compared to C and LE after12 daysof storage (0.98, 0.73, and 0.63 mg MDA/kg, respectively). The TBARS content was also influencedby the use of EO compared to burgers not treated with EO (p< 0.05). The vitamin E content wasinfluenced by the diet (p< 0.01), but not by the EO. The meat of the L group showed the lowest valueof redness (a*) compared to C and LE (p< 0.01), while the use of EO did not affect colour parameters.The microbiological profile of the burgers showed a lower Pseudomonas count for L and LE at T0(2.82±0.30and 2.30±0.52 Log CFU/g, respectively) compared to C (3.90±0.38 Log CFU/g),while the EO did not influence the microbiological profile. The FA composition was analysed at0 and 12 days. The burgers from the LE group showed the highest value of polyunsaturated FAcompared to the L and C groups (p< 0.05). Our findings suggest that the inclusion of vitamin E in aconcentrate rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids is useful to limit intramuscular fat oxidation and topreserve the colour stability of burgers from young Marchigiana bulls enriched with healthy fattyacids. Moreover, linseed and vitamin E had a positive effect on microbial loads and growth dynamics,containing microbial development through time.
