Influence of pork liver drying on ferrochelatase activity for zinc protoporphyrin formation
(Elsevier, 2022-10-27)
Pork liver contains an endogenous enzyme, ferrochelatase (FeCH), which catalyses the formation of zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP), a natural pigment of great interest for the meat industry. The aim of this ...
Ultrasound intensification of Ferrochelatase extraction from pork liver as a strategy to improve ZINC-protoporphyrin formation
(Elsevier, 2021-08-04)
The enzyme Ferrochelatase (FeCH), which is naturally present in pork liver, catalyses the formation of Zinc-protoporphyrin (ZnPP), a natural pigment responsible for the typical color of dry-cured Italian ...
Role of Enzymatic Reactions in Meat Processing and Use of Emerging Technologies for Process Intensification
(MDPI, 2023-05-10)
Meat processing involves different transformations in the animal muscle after slaughtering, which results in changes in tenderness, aroma and colour, determining the quality of the final meat product. ...
Influence of ultrasonic application on the enzymatic formation of zinc protoporphyrin
(Elsevier, 2023-02-03)
Ferrochelatase (FeCH), present in pork liver, catalyses the formation of zinc-protoporphyrin (ZnPP), a stable purple-red pigment found in Parma ham. Kinetics of ZnPP formation is especially slow. Thus, ...
Strategies for porcine liver valorization as a source of food ingredients
(Springer, 2024-08-06)
Purpose of Review The sustainable consumption and production goal and the decline of offal consumption have led to the
interest in seeking alternatives for porcine livers, the largest edible gland. To ...
