ABSTRACT



The aim of the study was to determine an optimal composition of a mixture of selected additives: isoascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate and glucon-delta-lactone – GDL, in order to obtain a product with an appropriately high consumer quality in a given time. It was also observed that the application of optimal amounts of isoascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate and glucon-delta-lactone makes it possible to obtain the maximum score for overall acceptability already after 10 days of storage. The application of isoascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate and glucon-delta-lactone in arbitrarily selected amounts may result in a significant deterioration of quality. It was also found that the developed methodological and mathematical procedure facilitates a faster and cheaper determination of an optimal composition of a mixture of additives (especially that containing many additives) than using the trial and error method.

Key words: quality, sensory, examination, optimization, raw sausage, isoascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate, glucon-delta-lactone, additives.
