Various amounts of buckwheat hulls (1%, 1,5%, and 3%) were added to cooked turkey sausages. The effect of buckwheat hulls on the physicochemical characteristics of the cooked turkey sausages, including, pH, instrumental color, texture profile analysis (TPA), antioxidant content and sensory evaluation, were determined. Increased levels of added buckwheat hulls led to higher antioxidant activity. However, the protein and fat contents of the cooked turkey sausage samples were constant. The instrumental color in control sample were L*=65,1, a*=5,6, and b*=9,8. There were slight differences in the TPA among the treated samples. According to the results of the sensory and objective assessment of consumer properties, it can be argued that sample F1 with the introduction of buckwheat hulls 3,0% had a negative effect on sensory properties of cooked turkey sausages. The best marks were given to the sample F1 with the introduction of buckwheat hulls 1,0% on sensory evaluation.
