JANOUŠKOVÁ, Kateřina
The topic of this work is to verify the effect of different treatments of beef after slaughter on quality characteristics, aerobic plate count on the surface of meat during maturation and sensory properties of matured meat before and after heat treatment. The literature review describes the quality characteristics of meat, the effects on quality, the maturing process and the methods of treatment of meat after slaughter. The practical part of the work consisted of treating meat after slaughter with lactic acid, lactic acid + onion peel extract and pure onion peel extract. The next part consisted of measuring the pH and the aerobic plate count during the dry maturation of beef quarters and after the wet maturation in the vacuum bags, determine the composition of the meat, the dripping of the water, the color and the sensory evaluation of the meat. The obtained values were statistically evaluated.
