RESUMO
Skin (SK) and abdominal fat (AF) are by-products that are abundantly produced in poultry slaughterhouses. Skin is used in meat products, especially in sausages, but its use is related to microbiological contamination and susceptibility to oxidation. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of SK replacement with AF on the quality characteristics of emulsified patties stored under freezing conditions (-18°C) for 90 D. The AF showed higher lipid content than did the SK, but the SK had a higher predominance of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Regarding the partial chemical composition, the treatments showed differences in moisture, lipids, and total collagen. The values for para-anisidine and carbonyl compounds at the end of 90 D of storage were not influenced by the incorporation of SK or AF. The judges also did not observe differences in the color and aroma of the emulsified products during the 90 D. Furthermore, volatile compounds considered oxidation markers were not detected at the end of the storage period. Given these results, emulsified patties made with SK or AF undergo, to a similar degree, low levels of lipid and protein oxidation when stored under freezing conditions (-18°C) for 90 D, which allows the use of some of these lipid sources in meat products.

The present study aimed to replace the fat in cooked chicken sausages with commercial hydrolyzed collagen powder and chicken feet gelatin and to assess the qualities underlying physicochemical and sensory parameters. Three sausages were prepared: SS (15% fat), SC (7.5% fat and 7.5% hydrolyzed collagen powder), and SG (7.5% fat and 7.5% chicken feet collagen). The reduction of fat increased the values of a*, b*, and Hue. With regard to emulsion stability, SG had the closest value (95.86%) to the standard (SS) value and was more stable than the SC sausage (87.33%). With regard to texture profile, the SC sausage had similar parameters to SS, and the SG sample had lower adhesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness. With regard to fatty acid profile, SG had the lowest atherogenic and thrombogenic indices. The use of 50% gelatin was viable because it increased emulsion stability and water retention, in addition to using byproduct to prepare healthier sausages, especially regarding fat reduction.
