Quality And Shelf Life

This study was implemented to assess the mechanism by which Moringa oleifera leaf extract (MOLE) improves the quality and prolongs shelf-life of the broilers’ breast meat. Ninety Cobb chicks were randomly allocated to 3 groups. A control group received the standard diet, whereas the other two groups received diets containing MOLE at the doses of 250 and 500 mg/kg for 21 days. Inclusion of MOLE in broilers diet significantly reduced the detrimental changes in the overall sensory attribute scores, characteristic color and odor, and the loss of breast muscle elasticity during storage. Furthermore, it significantly reduced concentrations of thiobarbituric acid, total volatile nitrogen, non-esterified fatty acids, and peroxide, during storage compared to the control samples. No effect on the concentrations of heavy metals, such as copper, cadmium, and lead, was observed. Decomposition of samples was delayed as indicated by lower pH values and higher sensory scores at 4 and 6 days of storage in the MOLE groups. Reduced contamination with E. coli and Salmonella species indicated an antibacterial effect of MOLE. Finally, the present study highlights that MOLE supplementation may play a role in improving quality and shelf-life of the chilled breast meat in broilers.

Diet Supplementation

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different Se sources on the meat quality and shelf life of fattening pigs. The control diet was supplemented with 0.3 mg/kg of Se from sodium selenite (SS), and experimental diets included 0.3, 0.3 and 0.15 + 0.15 mg/kg of Se from Se-enriched yeast (SY), selenomethionine (Se-Met) and SS + Se-Met, respectively. The results showed that using organic Se or Se + Se-Met in fattening pigs’ diet could increase average daily gain (ADG) (p < 0.05), decrease F/G (p < 0.05), reduce (p < 0.01) moisture, drip loss and cooking loss of longissimus thoracis, as well as increase (p < 0.05) protein and fat contents of longissimus thoracis. Diet supplementation with SY or Se + Se-Met could increase (p < 0.01) back fat thickness and skin thickness, and SY could increase (p < 0.01) belly fat rat. Adding SY or Se + Se-Met could reduce (p < 0.01) L value (45 min, 24 h). Adding Se-Met could decrease (p < 0.01) b value (45 min, 24 h), adding Se + Se-Met could reduce b value (45 min), and adding SY could reduce the b value (24 h). However, there were no (p < 0.05) significant effects on dressing percentage, carcass sloping length, eye muscle area, pH, a value (45 min) and a value (24 h) of longissimus thoracis. Moreover, the TVB-N contents of longissimus thoracis on the first and fifth days, the numbers of Lactobacillus on the third to seventh days and the numbers of E. coli in in the fifth to seventh days of longissimus thoracis were reduced (p < 0.01) by diet supplementation with organic Se. In conclusion, all the results indicate that replacing inorganic Se in diet with organic Se could improve meat quality of fattening pigs. In addition, organic Se could reduce the total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) contents of longissimus thoracis and reduce the numbers of E. coli and Lactobacillus in longissimus thoracis, prolonging the shelf life of pork. These results demonstrated that organic Se supplementation was more effective than SS supplementation for meat quality and the shelf life of fattening pigs.

AbstractMost Pb and Cd neurotoxicity studies investigate exposure to either of the toxic metals alone, while data on co-exposure are scarce. The aim of our study was to fill that gap by investigating acute combined effects of Pb and Cd on redox and essential metal status in the brain of Wistar rats. Animals were randomised in four groups of six to eight rats, which received 15 or 30 mg/kg of Cd, 150 mg/kg of Pb, or 150 mg/kg of Pb + 15 mg/kg of Cd by gavage. The fifth, control, group received distilled water only. Co-treatment with Pb and Cd induced significant increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) compared to control and groups receiving either metal alone. This is of special importance, as MDA presence in the brain has been implicated in many neurodegenerative disorders. The groups did not significantly differ in Zn, Cu, Mn, and Fe brain levels. Our findings highlight the importance of metal mixture studies. Neurotoxicity assessments of single chemicals do not provide a real insight into exposure to mixtures in real life. Further research should look into interactions between these metals to reveal complex molecular mechanisms of their neurotoxicity.

In this study, the microbiological quality and shelf life of beef treated with different concentrations of chitosan (CHI) was investigated. Beef samples obtained from a local market were dipped into 1%, 1.5% and 2% chitosan solutions prepared with 1% acetic acid. The samples were drained, vacuum packed and stored at 4°C for a period of 12 days. The samples were evaluated for sensorial properties (color, odor and overall acceptability) and microbial counts (TVC, TCC and TYMC) on 0, 4, 8 and 12 days of storage. Chitosan treated samples having 1%, 1.5%, 2% chitosan solution and control which were expressed as T1, T2, T3 and T0 respectively. The obtained results showed that addition of chitosan solution, significantly (p<0.05) affected on physicochemical (pH, CP, POV, Cooking Loss), microbiological (TVC, TCC, TYMC) and sensory attributes (color, odor, overall acceptance) compared to control samples at refrigerated temperature. The pH and POV of all the treatment groups increase significantly (p<0.05) compared to control group at different days of interval during storage. The CP and cooking loss of different treatment groups decrease significantly (p<0.05) compared to control group at different days of interval during storage. The results also revealed that the samples were dipped in chitosan solution (1%, 1.5%, 2%) significantly (p<0.05) improved the microbiological quality, sensory attributes and reduced lipid oxidation in beef samples compared to the control samples at different days interval. However, abnormal changes were not determined on the samples treated with chitosan, even on the last day of storage. In beef, storage at 4°C for 12 days, chitosan inhibited the growth of spoilage bacteria, reduce lipid oxidation, putrefaction and resulted in better sensory test. The results indicated that the application of chitosan on the beef samples improve the microbiological quality and extends the shelf life usually 5-8 days, which could an alternative to chemical protective additives.Bang.

The present study investigated the effect of chitosan combined with lemon peel extract coating on the quality and shelf life of refrigerated yellowfin tuna meat using physicochemical, microbial and sensory assessments. Fresh yellowfin tuna meat as chunks were divided into five lots and coated with lemon peel extract (LPE) and chitosan (CH) at different concentrations viz., control, C (0%), LPE 1%, CH 1%, LPE+CH 1% and LPE+CH 2% (w/v). Sensory, biochemical and microbial quality of the samples were observed for 12 days during 4°C refrigerated storage. Sensory evaluation revealed that shelf life of yellowfin tuna under the study was 6 days for control, 8 days each for LPE (1%) and CH (1%), 10 and 12 days for LPE+CH (1%) and LPE+CH (2%) respectively. Significantly higher pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), tri-methyl amino nitrogen (TMA-N), peroxide value (PV) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values were recorded in control samples than coated samples (p<0.05). Significant reduction in microbial counts were recorded in CH+LPE treated samples (p<0.05) compared to the LPE or CH coating alone, in the later stages of storage. Coated samples with combination of LPE+CH 1% and 2% indicated better storage qualities compared to other treatments. The present study revealed that LPE along with chitosan edible coating enhanced the shelf life of yellowfin tuna meat.

ABSTRACT: The effect of sunflower oil (SO), sunflower oil-pomegranate sauce (PS1) and sunflower oil-plum sauce (PS2) on shelf life of marinated carp fillets was investigated in terms of sensory evaluation, chemical (peroxide value (POV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA), free fatty acids (FFA), total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) and pH), and microbiological properties (Total viable count (TVC), Escherichia coli, Total coliform, Staphylococci/Micrococci, Salmonella spp.) during 30 days of storage. Proximate composition, which includes total crude protein%, fat%, moisture% and ash% of fresh carp fillets before marination process was analyzed and found 18.69±0.86, 4.08±0.19, 74.33±0.63 and 2.17±0.45, respectively. Sensory evaluation analysis showed that total appearance, odor-taste and texture scores decreased during storage. TVB-N significantly increased in all group after 1 month of storage (P<0.05). At the end of storage, the lowest TBA value (1.38 mg MA/kg carp fillet) was determined in the PS1 group. During storage, the highest POV value was observed in the control group (8.49 mEq O2/kg) compared to other groups. Initial TVC of 1.5 log CFU/g, 1.7 log CFU/g and 1.8 log CFU/g increased to 3.7 log CFU/g, 2.9 log CFU/g and 3.2 log CFU/g in SO, PS1 and PS2 groups, respectively. Results showed that the shelf life of marinated carp fillets treated with sunflower oil and in combination with pomegranate and plum sauce was more than 1 month.

The present study investigated the effects of ethanolic extracts obtained from Mentha spicata and Artemisia campestris on the shelf life and the quality of vacuum-packed sardine fillets stored at 3 ± 1°C for a period of 21 days. The three groups were tested were VC, control group; VM, group treated with 1% mint extract; and VA, group treated with 1% artemisia extract. The observed shelf life of sardine fillets was 10 days for control samples, whereas the combination of vacuum packaging with mint and artemisia extracts extended the product's shelf life to 17 days. Among the chemical indices determined, the thiobarbituric acid–reactive substances values were significantly lower in VM samples. Total volatile base nitrogen was maintained at low levels in VA samples until 17 days of chilled storage. Results of aerobic plate counts and coliform counts showed the existence of a reduced growth in VA group, whereas lactic acid bacteria did not show a significant difference among groups. Natural extract treatments combined with vacuum packaging showed lower microbiological and chemical indices, indicating that the presence of phenolic compounds in mint and artemisia extracts and the removal of oxygen in the pack retarded lipid oxidation and reduced the growth of microorganisms, which resulted in preventing spoilage and extending the product's shelf life.

ABSTRACT Tartary buckwheat peptides (TBPs), produced from tartary buckwheat through solid-state fermentation, were used as a dip treatment solution to preserve tilapia fillets. Fillets were dip treated with different concentrations of TBPs (0.5, 1, and 2% [v/v]) and stored at 4°C for 12 days. The effect of TBPs on thiobarbituric acid, total volatile base nitrogen, surface color, texture profile analysis, total viable counts, and changes in sensory properties of tilapia fillets during storage was investigated. Compared with the control group, the groups treated with TBPs displayed reduced rates of quality deterioration in physicochemical, bacteriological, and sensory characteristics. Based on total volatile base nitrogen content, total viable counts, and sensory scores, the shelf life of control tilapia fillets was 4 days and that for TBP-treated fillets was 8 days, twice as long as that of the control group. Thus, TBPs can be used as preservatives to maintain the quality and extend the shelf life of tilapia fillets stored at 4°C.

The effect of lactic acid in extending the shelf life of sheep carcasses stored at 4°C was evaluated. Carcasses were assigned to four testing groups: T1 (control group), T2 (1% lactic acid spray), T3 (2% lactic acid spray) and T4 (3% lactic acid spray). There were statistically significant differences among the groups in the colour score for each minced meat sample at 48, 72, and 96 h (X2 = 9.9, P = 0.019; X2 = 9.7, P = 0.021, respectively). The minimum mean rank of the odour score was found using 1% lactic acid at 72 h (3.0), which was significantly different (P &lt; 0.05) when compared to the other groups. The MANOVA test showed no significant difference (P &gt; 0.05) in the percentage of protein during the days of the experiment. The interaction effect between the sampling time and acid concentration levels on the measurement of S. aureus log10 CFU showed that the marginal mean of that measurement was significant (P &lt; 0.05) at 48, 72, and 96 hours. The minimum value for E. coli log10 CFU was observed at the time point of 96 h in groups 2 and 4 (3.3 ± 0.03) with no significant difference (P &gt; 0.05) between them. In conclusion, 1% lactic acid is more effective in extending the shelf life of sheep meat in comparison to 2 and 3% lactic acid.
