The present study was undertaken to assess the effect of coating added with clove essential oil on meat quality attributes of rabbit meat. The fresh rabbit meat was categorized into 4 treatments viz., control (C)- without coating, T1- coated with alginate coating, T2- coated with alginate coating added with 0.2% clove essential oil, and T3- coated with alginate coating added with 0.5% clove essential oil. The samples were aerobically packaged in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) packs and stored under refrigeration (4±1ºC) for 7 days. The samples were assessed on day 0 (before keeping the samples in refrigeration), days 1, 3, 5, and 7 for pH, cooking loss, colour profile, and sensory attributes. The alginate coating was observed to significantly (p<0.05) increase the pH value of the raw rabbit meat samples. Throughout the storage, the raw C sample recorded significantly (p<0.05) lower pH values than those of the raw-treated samples. The coating of the rabbit meat sample did not have any significant effect on the cooking loss except on day 0 of storage. With the advancement of the storage period, the treated samples retained a better colour and sensory attribute. The T3 sample had the highest sensory scores throughout the storage period. Thus, alginate coating added with 0.5% clove essential oil could be used to improve the quality of rabbit meat.
