    This study investigated the effect of ginger-rhizome addition and storage time on the physicochemical and sensory quality of pork meatloaf. Three types of pork meatloaf were evaluated: control and with 1% and 2% addition of ginger. All meatloaves were vacuum packaged and stored for 0, 7, 14, and 21 days at 4 °C. The addition of ginger rhizome significantly reduced lipid oxidation, and the higher inclusion rate was more effective in this regard. Ginger decreased red-colour saturation (a*) and increased colour brightness. The addition of ginger rhizome at 2% induced a greater decrease in meat hardness and improved chewiness in comparison with 1% addition. Products containing ginger differed from the control sample in aroma, texture, and taste, but no significant differences were found in the overall quality of the compared samples
