Item Efecto de la adición de fibra para la producción y enriquecimiento de embutidos(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ciencia e Ingeniería en Alimentos y Biotecnología. Carrera de Ingeniería en Alimentos, 2022-03) Arellano Salazar, Melany Lizeth; Salazar Garcés, Diego ManoloFood industries seek to develop functional products these due to the high demand they have in the market, thanks to the fact that consumers choose healthier foods, with more natural components and fewer artificial ingredients, that is why reformulations in sausages with the incorporation of Dietary fibers are considered as strategies that allow, in the first place, to revalue products that due to their characteristics have lost space, and on the other hand to obtain a functional and healthier food due to the incorporation of fibers that can enrich and generate benefits in the production of sausages. Due to the aforementioned, the different investigations show that natural fibers from fruits, vegetables, cereals or synthetic fibers such as pectin, β-glucan, inulin help to improve the quality of meat products with respect to functionality, for example, fibers They are favorable in reducing and replacing fats and others are considered as antioxidants that help delay lipid oxidation, other fibers have high water retention capacity, help to improve emulsion stability and also improve cooking performance. However, the inclusion of fibers in high concentrations can affect the sensory characteristics of the product, causing greater darkening and hardness, thus damaging the acceptability of the meat derivative by consumers.
