Résumé : |
Every year substantial dollar losses inhide value occur in the United States that are directly attributable to the combined effects of hide autolysis and bacterial degradation. Much of this value could be recovered through the effective application of short-term preservation chemicals immediately after slaughter. Two areas of critical importance for recoverig hide value are inrural (i.e., small sources such as farms or local butchers) hide collection and inscheduling the processing of fresh hides. A two to three day delay in curing is to known adversely affect grain quailty on rural collection hides, especially in hot weather. Even good quality packer hides delayed in delivery or just delayed in process over a weekend can result in a loss of grain quality.
To adress these needs, we have evaluated a wide range of generally regarded as safe (GRAS) and non-GRAS preservation treatments. Collagenase inhibitors have been incorporated to reduce grain damage from autolysis as well as damage from bacterial enzymes post-slaughter. Thus, we were able to extend the "shelf-life" of fresh hides by three to six days and prevent loss in hide value.
Several GRAS and non-GRAS chemical combinations achieved the desired results during bench scale testing and the data obtained will be discussed. Larger scale field-testing is in progress and details on these trails will be presented. |
