%0 Journal Article %T RAW CHICKEN LEG AND BREAST SENSORY EVALUATION %A Octavian Baston %A Octavian Barna %J Annals : Food Science and Technology %D 2010 %I Valahia University Press %X In the paper we presented a method of sensorial evaluation for chicken meat (red and white). This is a descriptive method of analysis. It was perform with trained assessors for chicken refrigerated raw meat organoleptical evaluation. The sensorial attributes considered were: external aspect of anatomical part of chicken analyzed by slime, the surface odor, the skin and muscle color and muscular elasticity. Color was determined for the skin and white and red muscles. Our scale of analysis is formed by three values that characterize each quality attribute. The trained assessor appreciated the sensorial quality of raw anatomical part of chicken as excellent, acceptable and unacceptable. The objectives were: to establish the sensorial attributes to be analyzed for each type of muscular fiber, to describe the quality of each considered attribute and to realize a sensorial scale of quantification for the considered sensorial attributes. Our purpose was to determine the quality of the red and white refrigerated raw chicken anatomical parts (respectively for legs and breasts) after one week of storage. %K refrigeration %K slime %K odors %K skin %K muscular fiber %K quality %K muscular elasticity %U http://afst.valahia.ro/docs/issues/2010/issue%201/2010-1-6-Baston-Raw.pdf
