Combined effect of natural antioxidants and antimicrobial compounds during refrigerated storage of nitrite-free frankfurter-type sausage.
Abstract The effects of nisin (200 and 400 ppm), e-polylysine (0.1 and 0.2%) and chitosan (0.5 and 1%) in combination with a Mixed Extract (green tea, stinging nettle and olive leaves extracts) on the physicochemical, microbiological characteristics, fatty acid composition and sensory attributes of the nitrite-free frankfurter-type sausages were assessed during 45 days of storage. The results revealed no significant differences on moisture, fat, protein, ash, salt and water activity (aw) among treatments. 1% Chitosan + Mixed Extract sausages displayed the lowest thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and total volatile nitrogen (TVN) values compared to Control after 45 days of refr…
Nutritional, chemical, syneresis, sensory properties, and shelf life of Iranian traditional yoghurts during storage
Tuluq and Torba yoghurts are traditional concentrates from Iran. Physicochemical, nutritional, and sensory properties of these yoghurts were studied along 60 days of storage. Results showed that, both pH and percentage of free whey decreased significantly (P < 0.05), while titratable acidity, total solid, salt, protein and fat content increased (P < 0.05) during storage. The yoghurt lipolysis decreased during the first 30 days and then increased during the storage. The indexes pH 4.6-soluble nitrogen/total nitrogen and non-protein nitrogen/total nitrogen in yoghurt samples decreased during first 30 days, possibly due to removing of low molecular weight nitrogenous compounds of Tuluq and Tor…
