Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant activity of Argel leaf water extract (ALWE) and its effect at different concentrations (0, 5, 10, and 20 mg/100 mL) on the antioxidant, antimicrobial, physicochemical, and sensory attributes of chicken meatballs during cold storage. ALWE contained substantial quantities of total phenolic content (TPC), anthocyanin, and exhibited high DPPH scavenging activity. ALWE incorporation in chicken meatballs had a varying effect on the chemical composition and sensory attributes of the product. However, ALWE incorporation at high concentration decreased the protein content of cooked meatballs and reduced fat content in both raw and cooked balls. Increased ALWE concentration in chicken meatballs lowered the pH, microbial load, and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances. Furthermore, ALWE raised the TPC and DPPH scavenging activity of chicken meatballs. Throughout the storage period, chicken meatballs formulated with ALWE showed better quality attributes than non-formulated chicken meatballs. In conclusion, ALWE can be employed as a functional ingredient for improved health benefits and shelf-life extension of chicken meatballs.
