The main objective of this study was to explain the use of calcium alginate coating in improving the quality attributes and in reducing the thawing loss of frozen pork patties. Five treatments were formulated- Control, T1 (coating with 1% alginate, cross linking with 3% CaCl2), T2 (coating with 1% alginate, cross linking with 5% CaCl 2), T3 (coating with 3% alginate, cross linking with 3% CaCl 2) and T4 (coating with 3% alginate, cross linking with 5% CaCl 2). The results indicated that coating with calcium alginate can decrease thawing loss of patties. Addition of tannic acid into the coating can prevent lipid oxidation and microbial growth in calcium alginate coated patties. Drip loss was also decreased.
