| Summary: | Objective: This study examines the effects of lime leaf and cinnamon essential oils (EOs) at different concentrations and storage durations on the quality of Se'i under ambient conditions.
Materials and Methods: We used a two-factor completely randomized design with three replications. The first factor involved EO concentrations of 0.1%, 0.3%, and 0.5%, while the second factor was storage duration at 0, 7, 14, and 21 days. Key parameters evaluated included pH, tenderness, thiobarbituric acid values, meat color, and sensory analysis.
Results: The results indicated that adding EOs effectively preserved the smoked meat, with improved quality parameters compared to the control group.
Conclusion: Adding 0.5% lime leaf or cinnamon essential oil to Se'i made it taste and look much better, showing that it could be used as a natural way to keep smoked meats fresh. [J Adv Vet Anim Res 2025; 12(1.000): 33-43] |
