The present study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of nisin on the microbial quality of chicken cutlets. Three levels of nisin viz. 400 I.U/g, 600 I.U/g and 800 I.U/g were incorporated in the formulation to study the effect of nisin on storage quality of chicken cutlets based on various microbiological counts. The chicken cutlets were aerobically packaged in low density polyethylene pouch...

The freshly harvested Carambola (Averrhoa Carambola L.) fruits were packed in different packaging matrials like high density polyethylene (HDPE) with a 1% and 2% ventilation with a pretreatment 2 % CaCl2 stored at ambient and also in refrigerated conditions the temperature was in the range of 18.0 to 21.0 0 C and Relative humidity of about 86 per cent. To evaluate the storage condition and pret...

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of three different packing methods including modified atmosphere, vacuum and common packaging on chemical, microbial and sensorial quality and shelf life of hot smoked Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) during storage at refrigerated temperature. For hot smoking, rainbow trout were gutted and cut in butterfly form and washed. Fish gutted br...

in this study, the antimicrobial effect of sea cucumber extract (0.5, 1 and 2%) on the microbial population of rainbow trout fillets during refrigerated storage was examined. fillets were stored for 16 days and every 4 days microbial tests (including total bacterial load, pseudomonas, enterobacteriaceae and h2s producing bacteria) were performed on the samples. results showed that there was no ...

Cells of La<:tobacillus lactis from frozen concentrated cultures were added to refrigerated raw milk to determine their effect on growth of psychrotrophic spoilage bacteria in the milk during storage at 5 or 7 C. Some strains of L. lactis were significantly inhibitory at both temperatures. 1\\'0 selected strains of L. lactis were added along with potassium sorbate to refrigerated raw milk store...
