Abstract
Inpresent study the use ofInductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS)wasinvestigated for the detection and differentiation of mechanically deboned meat (MDM) contenttreated with high pressure techniques in meat products. A number of samples of meat productswere prepared containing different proportions of MDM and elemental analysis was performed bya multi-element ICP-MS method after microwave assisted acid digestionof processed meatsamplesinclosed vessels acid microwave digestion method.Element concentrations were plottedversus MDM content and obvious differences were observed for certain elements. Among allexamined elements, barium presented a clear trend in correlation of its concentration with theMDM content. The results of this preliminary study indicate that it is possible to detect theproportion of % MDM content in processed meat products by its correlation to bariumconcentration.
