The present article investigates the effect of sodium lactate on microbiological, physico-chemical and sensory characteristics of lightly salted Pacific herring ( Clupea pallasii ) and Baltic herring ( Clupea harengus membras ) during refrigerated storage 5 ± 0.3°C. There have been analyzed different processing methods of lightly salted samples of Pacific and Baltic herring: control (without sodium lactate), and experiment (3% sodium lactate), both in vacuum packaging and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP - 40% CO2/60% N2). For vacuum and MAP there were used bags with low oxygen permeability (3 cm3/m2/day). It was found that 3% sodium lactate keeps firmness of the texture of salted fish muscle and reduces the release of water into the package during storage. Adding 3% sodium lactate reduces the value of the water activity in lightly salted Pacific and Baltic herring by 0.01-0,012 units. The lowest pH (0.02 units) was registered in samples without sodium lactate packed in MAP. Organoleptic signs of spoilage in fish without sodium lactate appeared much earlier, and using 3% sodium lactate both in vacuum and in MAP helped protect and improve organoleptic characteristics of the product during storage. Total biological semination of experimental samples packed in MAP kept at the very low level during the whole storage period, i.e. combined effect of using 3% sodium lactate and MAP inhibited microbial growth. This combination allows to reduce twice the rate of accumulation nitrogen in terminal amino-groups and to increase 1.5-2 times storage life of lightly salted Pacific and Baltic herring, compared to their storage life in vacuum packaging without sodium lactate. The results obtained allow us to recommend using sodium lactate in production of lightly salted fish in oxygen-free packaging, especially in modified atmosphere packaging (40% CO2/60% N2).

Abstract Background The context and purpose of the study are as follows: Drug-borne infections may arise from non-adherence to strict microbiological quality of pharmaceuticals products. Moreover, presence of exceeding levels of microorganisms in non-sterile pharmaceuticals may lead to change of their organoleptic characteristics and loss of effectiveness. The aim of the study is to evaluate the microbiological quality of commonly used non-sterile pharmaceuticals in Alexandria, Egypt. Results Average microbiological quality of the studied products, where 17.03% and 19.23 % of samples had exceeded the maximum acceptable limit of TAMC and TYMC, respectively. No E. coli was isolated from oral products. None of S. aureus nor P. aeruginosa were isolated from topical products. Bacterial growth was recovered from 19 (10.44%) of the studied 182 samples, four Bacillus spp. had been recovered from topical products, two P. aeruginosa isolates were recovered from tablets and other two were isolated from syrups dosage forms. Other isolates were Pseudomonas stutzeri, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Acinetobacter Achromobacter denitrificans, Ochrobactrum anthropic and Aeromonas salmonicida. Conclusion Average microbiological quality of the tested pharmaceuticals used in Alexandria.

Стабильность (розливостойкость) в течение длительного времени - одна из важных составляющих качественных характеристик спиртных напитков виноградного происхождения, в том числе коньяков. Коньяк представляет собой сложную многокомпонентную систему, включающую более 800 различных соединений, в том числе фенольный комплекс древесины дуба и минеральные вещества. В процессе длительного хранения под воздействием ряда факторов эти соединения, вступая во взаимодействие друг с другом, могут образовывать различные виды помутнений, что влечет за собой потерю товарного вида готовой продукции. Целью настоящей работы стало исследование влияния отдельных показателей физико-химического состава обработанных коньяков на изменение их стабильности в процессе хранения. В качестве объектов исследования использовали образцы обработанных розливостойких коньяков отечественного производства, которые были разделены в зависимости от возраста на четыре группы: I группа - 3-летние, 4-летние и 5-летние (23 образца); II группа - выдержанные «КВ» и выдержанные высшего качества «КВВК» (15 образцов); III группа - старые «КС» (9 образцов); IV группа - очень старые «ОС» (7 образцов). Образцы хранили в течение 6 мес. при температуре 22…25 °С, в условиях, не допускающих попадания прямых солнечных лучей. В процессе хранения проводили мониторинг изменения физико-химических показателей, розливостойкости и органолептических характеристик исследуемых образцов с периодичностью 1 раз в месяц. Установлено, что на всем протяжении хранения физико-химические показатели исследованных образцов оставались в пределах нормы. Однако, в отдельных образцах, на определенном этапе эксперимента (после 2 мес. хранения) было отмечено появление осадка. Кроме того, по результатам определения склонности к различным видам помутнений был отмечен рост доли коньяков, нестойких к необратимым коллоидным и кристаллическим помутнениям в трех группах, кроме IV группы. Полученные данные по исследованию структуры осадков и результаты тестов на розливостойкость согласуются с характером изменений массовых концентраций катионов натрия и кальция, а также фенольных соединений. В целом полученные результаты проведенных исследований показали необходимость контроля массовой концентрации катионов натрия и кальция, а также фенольных соединений при прогнозировании розливостойкости коньяков. One of the important components of the quality characteristics of alcoholic beverages of grape origin, including cognacs, is their stability (bottling resistance) for a long time. Cognac is a complex multicomponent system that includes more than 800 different compounds, including the phenolic complex of oak wood and minerals. During long-term storage, under the influence of a number of factors, these compounds, interacting with each other, can form various types of turbidity, which entails the loss of the presentation of the finished product. The aim of this work was to study the effect of individual indicators of the physical and chemical composition of processed cognacs on the change in their stability during storage. As objects of research, we used samples of processed bottling-resistant cognacs of domestic production, which were divided, depending on age, into four groups: Group I - three-year-old, four-year-old and five-year-old (23 samples); Group II - matured «KV» and matured of the highest quality «KVVK» (15 samples); Group III - old «KS» (9 samples); IV group - very old «OS» (7 samples). The samples were stored for 6 months at a temperature of 22…25 °C, in conditions out of direct sunlight. During storage, changes in physical and chemical parameters, bottling resistance and organoleptic characteristics of the samples under study were monitored at a frequency of 1 time per month. It was found that during the entire storage period, the physicochemical indicators of the studied samples remained within the normal range. However, in some samples, at a certain stage of the experiment (after 2 months of storage), the appearance of a precipitate was noted. In addition, according to the results of determining the tendency to various types of cloudiness, an increase in the proportion of cognacs unstable to irreversible colloidal and crystalline cloudiness was noted in three groups, except for group IV. The data obtained on the study of the structure of sediments and the results of tests for pouring resistance are consistent with the nature of changes in the mass concentrations of sodium and calcium cations, as well as phenolic compounds. In general, the results of the studies carried out showed the need to control the mass concentration of sodium and calcium cations, as well as phenolic compounds when predicting the pouring resistance of cognacs.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to determine the interaction effect of storage time and concentration of plantain peel extract and lemongrass on organoleptic characteristics (color, aroma, texture, and elasticity) and total microbes in chicken meatballs. This study used a 2-Factorial Completely Randomized Design method. The first factor was storage time with three levels, namely 0 days (T0), 2 days (T1), and 4 days (T2. Meanwhile, the second factor was the concentration of plantain peel and lemongrass extract with three levels, namely 0% (C0), 30% plantain peel extract + 20% lemongrass extract (C1), 20% banana peel extract + 30% lemongrass extract (C2), and 25% banana peel extract + 25% lemongrass extract (C3). Observation variables were organoleptic tests which included color, aroma, texture, elasticity, and shelf life after treatment based on the results of the total plate count (TPC) calculation. The results show that the 2-day storage period with the addition of 25% plantain peel extract and 25% lemongrass extract (T1C3) was the best treatment for organoleptic characteristics (color, aroma, texture, and elasticity). Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the administration of plantain peel extract and lemongrass was able to maintain the quality of chicken meatballs for two different days compared to the control. Treatment with a storage period of 2 days with 25% plantain peel extract and 25% lemongrass extract (T1C3) was the best treatment that was most favored by the panelists and had the least number of microbial colonies.Keywords: Meatballs, preservatives, banana peel extract and lemongrass, storage time.ABSTRAKTujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh interaksi lama penyimpanan dan konsentrasi ekstrak kulit pisang raja dan serai terhadap uji organoleptik (warna, aroma, tekstur dan kekenyalan) dan total mikroba pada bakso ayam.

Four commercially produced dahi samples were stored under 0°C, 10 °C and 20 °C temperatures subjected to microbiological examination, pH, titrable acidity and sensory attributes at various temperatures for a period of seven days. The results indicated an increase in microbial activity parameters and titrable acidity with increase in temperature and storage period. pH of dahi samples decreased with an increase in temperature and storage period indicating increase in acidity. The studies for microbiological studies shows increase in TPC along with the increase in days of storage. Similar case was found in Yeast and mould as well as in Coliform count. The TPC at refrigerated storage was observed as (1.69±0.58)106 to (5.0±0.68)106 while as at 20°C temperature it was observed as (1.5±0.35)106 to (4.5±0.12)10. Similarly the Yeast and mould count at refrigerated storage was observed as (1.0±0.92)106 while as at 20 °C temperature it was observed as ( 1.5±0.36)106 .The different samples of dahi were analysed for various sensorial attributes for their acceptance by using 9 point hedonic scale. The scores obtained with respect to colour, flavour, taste and aroma show good results and overall acceptability. Overall acceptability was also found to decrease significantly (p <.05) with increase in days of storage under refrigerated conditions. The results of the storage studies indicated the significant (p < .05) decrease in pH with the days of storage under different temperature conditions.

Hancornia speciosa is a fruit tree, popularly known as mangabeiras. The mangaba, fruits of this tree, are quite appreciated for their organoleptic characteristics. Because it is a climacteric fruit, this fruit has very high perishability. The use of products that extend the useful life is necessary. Calcium chloride (CaCl2) has been shown to be an alternative in post-harvest because it promotes few changes in fruit quality and increases the storage period. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluate quality attributes of mangaba fruits in two stages of maturation, 'Immature' and 'Mature', submitted to CaCl2 application, in four storage times (0, 2, 4 and 6 days) under ambient atmosphere. During the experiment, the loss of fresh weight, color, pH, titratable acidity, soluble solids and SS/TA ratio were evaluated. It was verified that the 'mature' fruits showed a higher acidity and soluble solids content, even with the application of CaCl2, the difference that the loss with the application of CaCl2 was smaller. Unlike '‘Immature’ and ‘Immature’ fruits with CaCl2 in which these characteristics were acquired as the experiment was conducted, in addition to presenting lower values for weight loss, pH and color.

During a 5-month period, 200 raw milk samples were collected from two Louisiana milk plants. Standard Plate Count (SPC), Psychrotrophic Bacteria Count (PBC), and Proteolytic Count (PC) of each sample were initially determined, then monitored daily during a 5-d storage period at 2.2°C. As hypothesized, all bacterial counts increased during the storage period. The magnitude of the increase in bacterial numbers during storage was further investigated by dividing the milk samples into bacteriologically acceptable and unacceptable groups based on SPC or Preliminary Incubation (PI) count. An SPC of 1.0 × 105/ml and PI counts of 1.0 × 105/ml, 1.5 × 105/ml, 2.3 × 105/ml, and 3.0 × 105/ml were used to repeatedly dichotomize the 200 raw milk samples into two groups. Median SPC, PBC, and PC for each acceptable and unacceptable group were then calculated. Dichotomization based on PI counts yielded acceptable sample groups having consistently lower bacterial counts during storage than did the acceptable sample group, which resulted from the dichotomization based on a SPC of 1.0 × 105/ml. The results of this study indicated that the PI count is of considerable value for raw milk quality control.

The aim of the study was to assess changes in qualitative characteristics of selected dairy products that occur during their shelf life. The research covered 2% pasteurized drinking milk, 18% cream and semi-fat tvarog produced in 3 regional processing plants (A, B and C) and purchased in the local retail network. A total of 186 samples were taken, including 20 samples of each of the above products from plants A and B, and 22 samples of these products from plant C. The following parameters were determined: chemical composition, density, potential acidity (°SH), freezing point, and the number of Enterobacteriaceae in drinking milk; as well as the content of fat, protein and dry matter, potential acidity (°SH), and the number of β-glucuronidasepositive Escherichia coli in cream and tvarogs. The research showed that the dairy products available in the retail network generally met the requirements of Polish standards. Deviations from the standards were found in the fat content of drinking milk and cream compared to that declared by the manufacturer. On both measurement dates, the acidity of the products did not exceed the prescribed limits, which indicates that the quality of the products was maintained during the storage period. The assessment of microbiological quality showed that on both dates the limit of E. coli contamination was exceeded in tvarog samples from dairy C, which indicates an unsatisfactory microbiological quality of the production process in this plant and the need to take corrective actions in the field of production hygiene. Drinking milk and cream, on the other hand, met the legal requirements in terms of process hygiene.
