Abstract

Determining the pH value and collagen value in beef is very important in terms of healthy and quality nutrition. Collagen value is of great importance in meat-like products in order to offer healthy products to consumers. Today, various measurement techniques are used to measure pH value and collagen value. However, the success and reliability of each measurement varies. Therefore, more sensitive and reliable measurement methods need to be developed. Within the scope of this study, modern techniques used in the food industry to measure the pH value and collagen value of cut meat were examined. The reliability and acceptance level of each technique varies. This research aims to contribute to the development of more accurate methods for measuring collagen and pH values. In this way, it is aimed to increase the quality of beef products and offer healthier and more delicious products to consumers.
