This study aimed to determine the antibacterial activity of the essential oil of fingerroot (Boesenbergia pandurata) (EOF) as a natural preservative in ground meat and its effect on the formation of heterocyclic amines (HAs) in pan-fried meatballs. EOF was applied either by adding it to ground pork or marinating pork in it before grinding. In addition, the antibacterial activity of EOF was tested. Aerobic mesophilic total viable count (TVC), lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and Enterobacteriaceae bacteria were monitored. The results show that EOF exhibited strong antibacterial activity when added at concentrations of 1.0 and 2.5 wt%. Antimicrobial activity against TVC, LAB, and especially Enterobacteriaceae bacteria was observed at all EOF concentrations (0.25, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.5 wt%). A 2.5% concentration of EOF applied by marinating trimmings can extend the shelf-life of ground pork to 18 days, while 2.5% EOF applied via addition can extend the shelf-life to 15 days, compared with 3 days for the control sample. After frying the meatballs, the inhibitory effect on the formation of heterocyclic amines was only significant for MeIQx with the highest addition of EOF (2.5 wt%). Significant increases in the concentrations of all other HAs were determined by adding EOF (2.5 wt%). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
