The antioxidant properties of methanolic extract of raw and roasted (at 200 °C for 60 min) defatted sesame‐meal in turkey breast and thigh meat systems were determined. The TBARS values of turkey breast and thigh meat added with 0.1% of roasted defatted sesame‐meal extract were 18.8% and 24.7%, respectively, lower than those of untreated controls after 5 days of storage. The turkey meats added with roasted defatted sesame‐meal extract had higher a * and b * values than those of controls due to the browning effects occurred in sesame seeds during roasting. The amounts of volatile hydrocarbons (pentane, hexane, heptane, and octane) and carbonyls (propanal, butanal, pentanal, hexanal and heptanal) significantly decreased by the addition of roasted defatted sesame‐meal extract. In particular, the amount of hexanal, the most predominant volatile compound in the cooked turkey meat, decreased by 74% and 83% in turkey breast and thigh meat, respectively. However, raw defatted sesame‐meal extract did not show significant antioxidant activity in turkey meats. These results indicated that heat treatment of sesame‐meal increased the antioxidant activities of methanolic extract of defatted sesame meal. Copyright © 2007 Society of Chemical Industry
