Effect of Ca2+ on the structure of collagen fibers in sea cucumber (Apostichopus japonicus) under low-temperature tenderization condition

Collagen fibers (CFs) are essential in maintaining the structural integrity of sea cucumber body wall tissues. Addition of Ca2+ to meat products improves tenderness and modulates the levels of chemical interactions in CFs. In this study, we investigated the effects of Ca2+ (ranging from 0 to 40 mM)...
