Overcoming Yield Loss & Texture Issues

In the competitive meat and seafood industry, maintaining moisture retention is critical for profitability.

Manufacturers often face challenges such as high cooking loss, dry texture after processing, and poor sliceability. These issues not only affect the sensory quality but significantly impact your product yield.

  • Prevent Water Loss: Lock in natural juices during thawing.
  • Improve Sliceability: Enhance protein binding structure.
  • Natural Texture: Avoid “rubbery” mouthfeel.

The Science: How Phosphates Optimize Meat Protein

Goway’s food-grade phosphates work at the molecular level to restore the natural functionality of meat proteins.

pH Adjustment Icon

pH Adjustment

By slightly elevating the pH of the meat, phosphates move the protein away from its isoelectric point, creating more space for water molecules to bind.

Ionic Strength Icon

Ionic Strength

Increasing ionic strength helps to “unlock” the actomyosin structure (muscle fibers), allowing for deeper penetration of brine and marinades.

Chelation Icon

Chelation Effect

Effectively sequestering metal ions to prevent oxidation and color degradation, ensuring your product looks as good as it tastes.
