Abstract
Chicken breast at 8%, 17% and 25% levels was used to replace pork fat in a low-fat dry Chinese sausage. This replacement resulted in more lipid and ox ymyoglobin oxidation; also pH values declined (p<0.05) during 4C storage. C ooking loss decreased with increasing chicken content in sausages (p<0.05). The addition of alpha-tocopherol to pork/chicken sausages delayed lipid an d oxymyoglobin oxidation (p<0.05) but did not influence pH value or cooking loss.
