Bone-in pork loins: modified atmosphere packaging to extend shelf-life

The Effect of Modified Atmosphere Packaging on the Shelf-life of Greenhouse-grown Tomato

In the present study, packaging of a greenhouse-grown tomato on the culture medium containing 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% compost tea under modified atmosphere: MA (88%N2 + 8%CO2 + 4%O2) in polyethylene and nanosilicon-polyethylene bags was studied at 5°C for 30 days. Several quality parameters such as moisture content, pH, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), Vitamin C content, text...

optimal packaging conditions to prolong shelf life of lettuce (lactuca sativa l.) in a modified atmosphere

food preservation has always been a concern for mankind. different methods have been developed to preserve food for long periods, such as cold storage, plastic covers, and modified atmospherethis study examined the physicochemical and biological effects of a modified atmosphere on packaged romaine lettuce at three levels (g1: 40% oxygen, 15% carbon dioxide, 45% nitrogen; g2: 70% oxygen, 15% car...

Vacuum or Modified Atmosphere Packaging and Edta-nisin Treatment to Increase Poultry Product Shelf Life

Shelf Life Evaluation of Ricotta Fresca Sheep Cheese in Modified Atmosphere Packaging

Ricotta fresca cheese is the product of Sardinian dairy industry most exposed to microbial post-process contamination. Due to its technological characteristics, intrinsic parameters, pH (6.10-6.80) and water activity (0.974-0.991), it represents an excellent substrate for the growth of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms, which are usually resident in cheese-making plants environments. Gener...

Modified Atmosphere Packaging: A Progressive Technology for Shelf-Life Extension of Fruits and Vegetables

Packaging and storage are the final phases in the food industry. Quality preservation, improving safety and reduction of postharvest losses waste are some objectives of the packaging engineering. One of techniques that widely used in packaging of fruits and vegetables are modified atmosphere packaging (MAP). In MAP for fresh fruits and vegetable the air of packaging headspace replaces with a pr...
