However, Ishizaki et al. (1993)
applied UV irradiation to pork meat pastes and then heated the
irradiated mince to prepare mince gels.
They observed that the UV irradiation of meat pastes improved the gel strength significantly, because of an increase in the elasticity and viscosity
From the breaking force, breaking strain, and gel strength values, 7 kGy irradiated gel was found to be the best gel in this study.
