    Quality and acceptability evaluation of soy-cheese (tofu) enhanced with meat
    (Bangladesh Meat Science Association, 2023-03) Apata, E. S.; Sunmola, R. A.; Sunmola, R. A.; Olaleye, O. O.; Apata, O. C.
    The study was carried out to determine the quality and acceptability of soy-cheese (Tofu) enhanced with different meat types. 40g of raw soybeans, 40g of each meat type-beef, mutton, chevon, chicken and 5g of industrial grade calcium sulphate (CaSo4) were used for this study. The meat types + Tofu constituted the treatments, thus: T0 = Tofu only (control), Ti = Tofu + beef, T2 = Tofu + mutton, T3 = Tofu + chevon, T4 = Tofu + chicken meat. Data were collected and analysed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) at p<0.05. The meat Tofu products samples showed significant differences (p<0.05) in physical, chemical and the sensorial variables tested with chicken meat Tofu (T4) having highest (p<0.05) yield, water holding capacity, protein, fat, ash, all the organoleptic and overall acceptability values. This study supplied first hand information on the effect of meat inclusion in Tofu, therefore, chicken meat could be included in Tofu at ratio of 1:1 for quality and acceptability enhancement.

    Effect of thermal processing methods on the eating qualities and acceptability of different meat types
    (School of Sciences, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria, 2017-12) Apata, E. S.; Eniolorunda, O. O.; Apata, O. C.; Abiola-Olagunju, O.; Taiwo, B. B. A.
    This study was carried out to evaluate the eating qualities of six different meat types namely: beef, chevon, pork, rabbit, turkey and chicken cooked with three methods. The three cooking methods employed were frying, boiling and roasting. Fresh meat cuts (250g) of 5 meat types were purchased from Ayetoro market in Yewa North Local Government areas of Ogun State, while live rabbits were bought and slaughtered and 250g of meat harvested and used for this study. The 250g of each meat type was divided into 50g and subjected to cooking using frying, boiling and roasting for 20 minutes. The meat samples were served to a semi-trained 10-member taste panel that adjudged the test on the meats for flavour, tenderness, juiciness, texture and overall acceptability using 9-point hedonic scale on which 1= disliked extremely and 9= liked extremely. The results showed that frying increased (p<0.05) the . juiciness and texture of rabbit, turkey, chicken and pork meats as well as the overall acceptability of the same meat types. Boiling increased the flavour of beef and chevon and tenderness of rabbit, turkey, pork and chicken as well as the texture of beef, chevon, pork and rabbit, but enhanced the overall acceptability of beef and chevon. Roasting improved the flavour of beef and chevon, tenderized pork and rabbit meat as well as increased the juiciness of beef and chevon, texture of beef, chevon and rabbit meats; it increased the consumer’s acceptability of beef, chevon and rabbit meats. It was concluded that each meat type should be cooked based on the method that impacts palatability quality which the consumer desired. It was suggested that pork, rabbit, turkey and chicken meats be fried as it enhanced most of the palatability qualities of these meat types, beef and chevon meat be boiled or roasted for higher acceptability.

    Effects of breeds and spices on water holding capacity and consumers’ acceptability of goat meat (chevon)
    (Animal Science Association of Nigeria, 2016) Apata, E. S.; Omojola, A. B.; Eniolorunda, O. O.; Apata, O. C.; Okubanjo, A. O.
    Five muscles, semitehdinosus (ST), Biceps femoris (BF), Longissimusdorsi, (LD), Trceps brachii (TB) and Brachialis (BC) were excised from twelve Goats buck carcasses of two breeds, the West African Dwarf and Red Sokoto, 50g of each muscle was cooked with four different spices; ginger (A) garlic (B), alligator pepper (C) and black pepper (D) to determine their effects on water holding capacity and acceptability of the muscles. The muscles together with the spices were cooked for 20 mutes and cooled to room temperature (about 25°C), Ig of each muscle was removed and pressed to determine the water holding capacity, while the rest of the muscles were served to 10 member taste panel to assess the muscles for acceptability based on their flavour on a 9 point hedonic scale. The results (49.80, 48.30) showed that muscles cooked with ginger (A) had higher water holding capacity while those poked with garlic (B) had the least (28.50, 25.30). Muscles from WAD buck goat (BF 49.80) had higher water holding capacity. Muscles cooked with garlic (B) (8.67, 80) were highly preferred by the taste panelists while muscles cooked with alligator pepper (C) (4.32, 4.15) were least accepted. It was evident from the results this study that spices can improve water holding capacity and acceptability of chevon. Ginger (A) favoured high water holding capacity while garlic (B) is recommended for high flavour and acceptability of chevon.
