Abstract
Abstract The generation, accumulation and decay of free radicals in muscle and fat fractions from three varieties of Spanish dry-cured ham treated (0–4 kGy) in an electron accelerator have been studied by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. In the ESR spectra from fat fractions, a well-resolved triplet signal corresponding to an alkyl radical was found only in treated samples. Linear regression models ( P P > 0.05) differences were found between ESR spectra from untreated (0 kGy) and treated (0–4 kGy) samples. Results suggest that the analysis of ESR spectrum in fat samples can be used to evaluate the E-beam treatment of dry-cured ham.
