The reactions of the heme pigments of meat, myoglobin and hemoglobin, are important in determining the colors of fresh and cured meats. The effect of the partial pressure of oxygen, the means by which oxidized pigments are re-reduced, andthe thermodynamic and electrochemical requirements for the interconversion of the three pigments of fresh meats—myoglobin, metmyoglobin, and oxymyoglobin—are covered. The mechanisms of conversion of the native pigments of meat to the stable red pigments of cured meats are described and the effects of various conditions on the conversion are discussed. The known reactions which produce green heme pigments are related to the development of off-colors and" greening" in both fresh and cured meats.
