The adding of BHT, AA, and CE to patties significantly restrained lipid oxidation, lowered hue angle as color value, and expanded redness and chroma values of fresh beef patties in comparison to the control (p<0.05). BHT and AA significantly led to impede the protein oxidation of patties by lowering carbonyl content (p<0.05). CE had no negative effect on protein oxidation. The antioxidant effects of BHT, AA, and CE were obviously manifested. Nonetheless, BHT, AA, and CE appeared to have insignificant difference of each other for lowering the protein oxidation at the end of storage. BHT and CE represented lowered lipid oxidation in comparison to AA. The antioxidant effects of BHT, AA, and CE on lipid oxidation were more marked than the effects on protein oxidation. Furthermore, CE as a natural antioxidant evinced the efficiency in oxidative stability and color stability in fresh beef patties. The study implied that CE could substitute the use of BHT and AA when making beef patties during storage.

Four kinds of patties were formulated: without antioxidants (control), with added 0.02% BHT, 0.05% AA, and 0.1% CE. Addition of BHT, AA, and CE resulted in a significant (p < .05) decrease in thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value, carbonyl content, and hue angle; increasing of redness value; and improvement of the stability of sensory attributes. Addition of CE showed reduced protein and lipid oxidation when compared with BHT (p < .05). Moreover, CE presented lower lipid oxidation, and a higher redness value and overall color score than the AA (p < .05). Sensory assessment regarding overall color, discoloration, and odor showed that CE inclusion in patties extended the storage life up to 10 days. Therefore, the application of CE as a natural antioxidant can result in reduced protein and lipid oxidation and enhance the quality of cooked beef patties.

(CS) extract. Four different types of cooked pork sausages were prepared by mixing nitrite with CS extracts at different concentration like control (without nitrite and extract), T1 (0.007% nitrite), T2 (0.004% nitrite ? 0.05% extract) and T3 (0.1% extract). Physicochemical properties, sensory attributes, and antioxidant activity of the control and treatments were investigated. Ash contents and DPPH radical scavenging activity were significantly (P \ 0.05) higher when pork sausages were processed with the addition of CS extracts. The rate of lipid oxidation significantly (P \ 0.05) decreased in the case of CS extracts addition. By comparing with the control, all nitrite or CS extract resulted in significant (P \ 0.05) lower L* values; however, 0.007% nitrite and 0.004% nitrite plus 0.05% CS extract pointed significantly (P \ 0.05) higher a* values in all storage times. As well as, arrangement of CS extracts (0.05%) and nitrite (0.004%) in pork sausages displayed high gumminess and cohesiveness values (P \ 0.05), stable springiness and chewiness, and significantly (P \ 0.05) enhance overall acceptability scores as sensory attributes compared to the control sausage after 30 days of storage. Therefore, the CS extract (0.05%), which can act as a natural antioxidant, exert a positive effect with nitrite (0.004%) on the sensory acceptability and help to preserve the desired color of cooked pork sausages by reducing oxidation rate during cold storage. Keywords Cooked pork sausage Á Caesalpinia sappan L. extract Á Nitrite replacement Á Lipid oxidation Á Antioxidant activity Á Physicochemical quality Jin-Kyu Seo and Rashida Parvin have contributed equally to this work.

Considering this, three weaning foods were formulated using locally available cereals and nutritious fruits such as wheat, soya flour, jackfruit and mango. Methods: Standard procedures of Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) and American Public Health Association (APHA) were used to determine the chemical composition and microbiological analysis. Organoleptic qualities were analysed by twenty adult panelists of the Institute of Food Science and Technology, Bangladesh, using a 9-hedonic scale against a cereal based commercial brand as standard for proximate and sensory properties. Results: The moisture content of the developed weaning foods ranged from 2.78-3.59%, crude protein content 14.74-16.55%, fat 11.04-12.70%, ash 1.38-1.68%, crude fibre 1.04-1.52%, carbohydrate 65.83-71.09% and energy content from 445.80-465.48 kcal/100g of the foods. The formulated weaning foods A, B and C were significantly different (p&amp;lt;0.05) in moisture, protein, fat, carbohydrate and energy contents from the commercial brand, D. According to rat bioassay method, the prepared weaning foods C and B had the highest Protein Efficiency Ratio and Feed Efficiency Ratio than the commercial brand, D. Total bacterial counts were nil for all weaning foods. Sensory analysis revealed acceptability of all the weaning foods and preference for weaning food C that compared favorably with the standard in all the quality attributes. Conclusion: The formulated weaning foods are inexpensive and nutritious, and its ingredients are locally available. These foods have the potential for improving malnutrition problems facing children in Bangladesh.

The adding of BHT, AA, and CE to patties significantly restrained lipid oxidation, lowered hue angle as color value, and expanded redness and chroma values of fresh beef patties in comparison to the control (p<0.05). BHT and AA significantly led to impede the protein oxidation of patties by lowering carbonyl content (p<0.05). CE had no negative effect on protein oxidation. The antioxidant effects of BHT, AA, and CE were obviously manifested. Nonetheless, BHT, AA, and CE appeared to have insignificant difference of each other for lowering the protein oxidation at the end of storage. BHT and CE represented lowered lipid oxidation in comparison to AA. The antioxidant effects of BHT, AA, and CE on lipid oxidation were more marked than the effects on protein oxidation. Furthermore, CE as a natural antioxidant evinced the efficiency in oxidative stability and color stability in fresh beef patties. The study implied that CE could substitute the use of BHT and AA when making beef patties during storage.

Four kinds of patties were formulated: without antioxidants (control), with added 0.02% BHT, 0.05% AA, and 0.1% CE. Addition of BHT, AA, and CE resulted in a significant (p < .05) decrease in thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value, carbonyl content, and hue angle; increasing of redness value; and improvement of the stability of sensory attributes. Addition of CE showed reduced protein and lipid oxidation when compared with BHT (p < .05). Moreover, CE presented lower lipid oxidation, and a higher redness value and overall color score than the AA (p < .05). Sensory assessment regarding overall color, discoloration, and odor showed that CE inclusion in patties extended the storage life up to 10 days. Therefore, the application of CE as a natural antioxidant can result in reduced protein and lipid oxidation and enhance the quality of cooked beef patties.

(CS) extract. Four different types of cooked pork sausages were prepared by mixing nitrite with CS extracts at different concentration like control (without nitrite and extract), T1 (0.007% nitrite), T2 (0.004% nitrite ? 0.05% extract) and T3 (0.1% extract). Physicochemical properties, sensory attributes, and antioxidant activity of the control and treatments were investigated. Ash contents and DPPH radical scavenging activity were significantly (P \ 0.05) higher when pork sausages were processed with the addition of CS extracts. The rate of lipid oxidation significantly (P \ 0.05) decreased in the case of CS extracts addition. By comparing with the control, all nitrite or CS extract resulted in significant (P \ 0.05) lower L* values; however, 0.007% nitrite and 0.004% nitrite plus 0.05% CS extract pointed significantly (P \ 0.05) higher a* values in all storage times. As well as, arrangement of CS extracts (0.05%) and nitrite (0.004%) in pork sausages displayed high gumminess and cohesiveness values (P \ 0.05), stable springiness and chewiness, and significantly (P \ 0.05) enhance overall acceptability scores as sensory attributes compared to the control sausage after 30 days of storage. Therefore, the CS extract (0.05%), which can act as a natural antioxidant, exert a positive effect with nitrite (0.004%) on the sensory acceptability and help to preserve the desired color of cooked pork sausages by reducing oxidation rate during cold storage. Keywords Cooked pork sausage Á Caesalpinia sappan L. extract Á Nitrite replacement Á Lipid oxidation Á Antioxidant activity Á Physicochemical quality Jin-Kyu Seo and Rashida Parvin have contributed equally to this work.

Considering this, three weaning foods were formulated using locally available cereals and nutritious fruits such as wheat, soya flour, jackfruit and mango. Methods: Standard procedures of Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) and American Public Health Association (APHA) were used to determine the chemical composition and microbiological analysis. Organoleptic qualities were analysed by twenty adult panelists of the Institute of Food Science and Technology, Bangladesh, using a 9-hedonic scale against a cereal based commercial brand as standard for proximate and sensory properties. Results: The moisture content of the developed weaning foods ranged from 2.78-3.59%, crude protein content 14.74-16.55%, fat 11.04-12.70%, ash 1.38-1.68%, crude fibre 1.04-1.52%, carbohydrate 65.83-71.09% and energy content from 445.80-465.48 kcal/100g of the foods. The formulated weaning foods A, B and C were significantly different (p&amp;lt;0.05) in moisture, protein, fat, carbohydrate and energy contents from the commercial brand, D. According to rat bioassay method, the prepared weaning foods C and B had the highest Protein Efficiency Ratio and Feed Efficiency Ratio than the commercial brand, D. Total bacterial counts were nil for all weaning foods. Sensory analysis revealed acceptability of all the weaning foods and preference for weaning food C that compared favorably with the standard in all the quality attributes. Conclusion: The formulated weaning foods are inexpensive and nutritious, and its ingredients are locally available. These foods have the potential for improving malnutrition problems facing children in Bangladesh.

Cu, Pb and Cr by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The results showed the concentration of Cu was within permissible limit for all samples. Cu concentration varied 1.23 to 25.04 mg/kg. Cr concentration exceeds the normal range for leafy vegetables as 4.25 mg/kg for jute leaves (Chalkbazar), 3.21 mg/kg for water spinach (Chalkbazar), 2.96 mg/kg for water spinach (Nasirabad) than non leafy vegetables. Samples from vatiary had the Cr concentration within safe limit. The concentration of Pd found in leafy vegetables was too much high. The range of Pb found in all samples was 0.08 mg/kg (sweet gourd) to 2.99 mg/kg (jute leaves) where the guideline concentration of WHO was 30, 2.3 and 0.3 mg/kg for Cu, Cr and Pb respectively. In respect to Pb concentration, the order of locations according to heavy metal was Nasirabad > Agrabad> Chalkbazar> Vatiary. Vegetables from industrial areas were contaminated with heavy metals viz. Cr and Pb which would be health hazardous for consumer.
