Among many meat products , salted meat is
consumed in many countries due to its flavour and longer shelf life.
It is known that salt added to the meat system can promote protein
extraction due to the high ionic forces in the media.
Protein precipitation and solubilization
could induce a pH evolution in meat products throughout the salting
process. Data of pH is closely related to the water holding
capacity and water loss in salted and dry cured meat
