Objetivo Processed meat products have growingly become a popular solution for highly nutritive yet affordable meat for consume,having the global market for these products registered a remarkable increase in the past years. Once the prime cuts andmain pieces of meats have been cut from the carcasses, there is still a substantial amount of muscle tissue attached thebones. The optimal use of this meat would be in processed meat products. In case the residual meat is recovered by hand,the product is considered as meat and legally treated as such. However, if the recovery is done mechanically, the productshould be regarded as mechanically separated meat (MSM), a supposedly lower quality product, and treated as such inaccordance to present EU legislation.Nowadays, mechanical methods are the industry’s preferred approach. Significant technical improvements in the mechanicalseparation processes have been seen during last years, which enable the production of MSM that cannot or can only hardlybe distinguished from manually-processed minced meat. Thus, there is a need to establish an objective and accuratemethod to quantify the degree of degradation of muscle structure, as there are no objective arguments supporting theseparation of MSM and minced meat.Building from this, we have developed a highly reproducible histochemical method for the harmonization of the assessmentof meat quality in laboratory quality control settings as well as fast and objective method to perform online qualityclassification of comminuted meat at the production line.Through the present innovation project, we will demonstrate the economic benefits to end-users and added value of ourtechnology for meat industry market. Moreover, the accomplishment of the project objectives will represent a major businessopportunity, with an estimated 5-year aggregated turnover of almost €23 million.
