Temperature function integration and the development and metabolism of poultry spoilage bacteria.

چکیده
The rate of spoilage of chicken tissues, the development of spoilage bacteria, and the utilization of amino acids by spoilage bacteria as a function of temperature were more accurately described by the general spoilage curve of Olley and Ratkowsky (Food Technol. Aust. 25:66-73, 1973; Food Technol. N.Z. 8:13-17, 1973) than by the linear equation of Spencer and Baines (Food Technol. [Chicago] 18:175-179, 1964). Remaining shelf life of poultry tissues may be predicted at temperatures up to 16 degrees C by using a temperature function integrator which incorporates the general spoilage curve.

The Use of Enterococci as Probiotics in Poultry
Enterococci are members of the lactic acid bacteria family and are responsible for many food spoilage and fermentations. Some strains of this microorganism are used as probiotics in humans and animals to improve host immunity. However, some Enterococci are important pathogens which cause severe infections. Some strains of Enterococci are resistant to common antibiotic...

متن کاملDefinition of predictor variables for MAP poultry filets stored under different temperature conditions.
Storage tests under different temperatures (2, 4, 10, and 15°C) were conducted to identify the best predictor variable that is most effective to explain the loss of the shelf life and quality of modified atmosphere packed (MAP) poultry, and constitutes the basis for the prediction of the remaining shelf life. The samples were packed in 70% O2 and 30% CO2, which is the common used gas atmosphere...
متن کاملImpact of feathers and feather follicles on broiler carcass bacteria.
Genetically featherless and feathered broiler siblings were used to test the contribution of feathers and feather follicles to the numbers of aerobic bacteria, Escherichia coli, and Campylobacter in whole-carcass rinse samples taken immediately after carcasses were defeathered for 30 or 60 s. Numbers of spoilage bacteria were counted after the same fully processed carcasses were stored for 1 wk...
متن کاملMicrobial growth on broiler carcasses stored at different temperatures after air- or water-chilling.
Poultry meat has a high risk of contamination during its processing. Storage temperature, type of packaging, and types and numbers of psychrotrophic bacteria are the major factors determining the spoilage of poultry meat. Before packaging, poultry carcasses are chilled by air or water currents in commercial slaughterhouses. The packaging material and methods are other factors influencing the sp...
