| Résumé : |
In 1999, the USDA approved the use of electron beam and gamma ray irradiation for the cold pasteurization of red meat including the elimination of E. coli O157-H7 in hamburger. Titan, Incorporated, of San Diego has contracted with a major red meat producer to construct the first electron beam irradiation facility dedicated to this purpose. This opens up the possibility of applying electron beam technology to preserve cattle hides in order to eliminate environmentally hazardous brine curing in these same packing plants. With this in mind, Titan entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Agricultural Research Service to conduct an industrial-scale evaluation of the use of electron beam irradiation for cattle hide preservation. We have conducted a one-hundred-and-fifty-hide matched-side experiment to evaluate preservation, leather quality and yield of electron-beam-preserved cattle hides as compared to brine-cured hides. The hides in this study were individually identified immediately after slaughter in Schuyler, NE, trucked to a tannery in St. Joseph, MO, to prepare them for irradiation, trucked to Cranbury, NJ, for irradiation and then returned to St. Joseph to be tanned. A total of three weeks elapsed between hide removal and tanning. After storage at room temperature, all of the hides appeared to be as fresh and clean as they were just after flaying. Weight, area and visual quality were measured at various stages throughout the process. With the exception of draw, which was considerably better on the irradiated sides compared to the brine sides, all of the parameters measured were equivalent for both preservation treatments. An analysis of the results obtained will be presented along with the potential impact of cattle hide irradiation on the tanning and packing industries. |
