This work aims to evaluate the impact of sodium erythorbate (C6H7NaO6) in different amounts (0.05%; 0.1%) on physicochemical quality parameters in a functional product with heterogeneous structure. We aimed to test two main anatomical areas used in the process of obtaining the finished product: Musculus gluteus maximus and Musculus longissimus dorsi from Sus scrofa domestica. Data distribution was evaluated using SPSS Statistics 26.0 software. Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) is used to determine if there are significant differences between the amounts of C6H7NaO6 and anatomical area on physicochemical parameters considering their interactions. Pearson correlation was used to analyse the degree of association between the amounts of C6H7NaO6, the anatomical zone, and the physicochemical quality parameters of the finished product. Based on the results obtained, recommendations can be made on the optimal concentration of C6H7NaO6 % to achieve the desired effects on physicochemical quality parameters without compromising consumer safety.
