As for phospholipase, the activity in SS-loin was significantly
higher than that in S-loin from 8 to 18 days of drying-ripening
(P < 0.05). Furthermore, the phospholipase activity in the final
SS-loin product was 79.63% more than that in S-loin (P < 0.05).
This increased phospholipase activity in SS-loin might be
responsible for the decreased phospholipids and increased free
fatty acid content described before (Table 1).
