    The effect of rice husk flour (RHF) supplementation on the physicochemical properties, oxidative stability, and sensory attributes of beef sausages was examined. Beef sausages were formulated with either 0 % RHF + 15 % wheat flour (WF), RHF-0; 5 % RHF + 10 % WF, RHF-5; 10 % RHF + 5 % WF, RHF-10, or 15 % RHF + 0 % WF, RHF-15, and cooked at 200 ◦C for 20 min. RHF supplementation significantly increased dietary fiber while decreasing moisture content (P < 0.05). Beef sausages with RHF had lower L*, a*, TBARS, carbonyl content, hardness, chewiness, and gumminess, and a higher pH (P < 0.05). RHF-10 and RHF-15 sausages exhibited greater cook loss compared to other formulations (P < 0.05). The levels of 7-ketocholesterol decreased with increasing RHF levels, while 7α-hydroxycholesterol and 7-hydroperoxycholesterol were higher in RHF-0 and RHF-10 sausages compared to RHF-5 and RHF-15 sausages (P < 0.05). In addition, RHF improved the taste, juiciness, appearance, and overall acceptance of beef sausages. These findings suggest that RHF can be a valuable ingredient in beef sausages by increasing fiber content, reducing oxidative degradation, and maintaining sensory quality despite some moisture loss.
