This quality attributes greatly affected by lipid and pigment oxidation. Understanding and controlling the processes which lead to color and lipid oxidation is a major challenge for meat scientists because of a greater demand ever by consumers for foods perceived as natural, fresh-tasting , healthy and more nutritious (Morrissey et al., 1998).
