Tackling Colour and Flavour Deterioration in Processed Meats

Colour and flavour are key factors influencing consumer purchase decisions for meat products. However, these attributes deteriorate over time due to oxidation. Lipid oxidation not only causes off-odours and off-flavours but also accelerates the conversion of oxymyoglobin (bright red) to metmyoglobin (grey-brown), leading to undesirable colour changes. This process is further intensified by iron ions released during oxidation. In addition to chemical deterioration, microbial activity also impacts quality, safety and colour. Mincing meat speeds up this deterioration because of increased surface area and microbial contamination during grinding.


How NaturCEASE Dry Works

NaturCEASE Dry combines buffered vinegar with selected natural plant extracts to support shelf‑life management in processed meat products. Buffered vinegar contributes to the control of spoilage mechanisms, while plant extracts are known for their antioxidant properties. Together, this approach supports colour and flavour stability during storage, including in applications with higher surface exposure such as minced meat. NaturCEASE Dry offers a convenient, dry‑format option that aligns with clean label expectations in meat formulations.
