Physics-assisted processing technologies have huge potential in the meat processing industry. By modeling two essential procedures (pickling and preheating) of gels-based meat products, this work investigated the cascade effects of a new physical technology (magnetic field) on the conformational structures and gel properties of myofibrillar proteins (MPs). Samples were subjected with four magnetic field (MF)-assisted treatments (group A, both processes without MF; group B, pickling without MF combining with preheating with 4.5 mT MF; group C, pickling with 3.0 mT MF combining with preheating without MF; group D, pickling with 3.0 mT MF combining with preheating with 4.5 mT MF). The result showed that MF-assisted treatments significantly improved water holding capacity (WHC) of MP gels compared with group A (46.9%), reaching the maximum value of 52.1% in group D.According to the low-field nuclear magnetic results, group D decreased the percentages of P22 (6.97%) and increased the percentages of P21 (93%), which showed that water molecules were more tightly bound to each other. Meanwhile, the unfolding of α-helix and the formation of random coil of MF-assisted treatments resulted in more exposure of internal groups, leading to the formation of a dense network. These findings would provide new insights to improve the quality of gels-based meat products via the MF.
