The popurse of experiment (Ⅰ) were to investigate the effect of trisodium phosphate (TSP) levels (0, 6, 10, 14 and 28%) on microbial and chemical properties of pork. Also study the effectiveness of 0.2% NaOH, 6%TSP, 6%TPP(tripotassium phosphate) solutions on microbial and chemical propertiesof pork in experiment (Ⅱ).Pork dipped in different percentage of TSP solutions had lower counts of total aerobic bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae and coliform group than the control.However, the differences in bacterial counts among these TSP groups were notsignificant. Pork treated with TSP solutions (6, 10, 14 and 28%) had higherpH values, water holding capacity (WHC), and solution uptake (%). The differences in total aerobic bacterial counts, Enterobacteriaceae coliformgroup, cooking loss (%), weep (%), thiamin, riboflavin, TAB values, shearvalues, pH, WHC, and solution uptake (%) between 6%TSP and 6%TPP groups were not significant. Pork treated with 0.2% NaOH solution could not reduce thebacterial counts effectively.
