This study evaluates the effects of fat contents on the thermal resistance, antibiotic sensitivity, and Caco-2 cell invasion of Listeria monocytogenes. Ten strain mixture of L. monocytogenes in milk (0, 1, and 4% fat) and pork sausage patties (10, 20, and 30% fat) were exposed to 63oC. To evaluate effects of fat on the antibiotic sensitivity of L. monocytogenes, the L. monocytogenes strains NCC...

www.meso.hr Introduction The traditional Croatian dry sausages are, in almost all cases, fermented sausages that undergo more or less prolonged process of smoking and drying–ripening before consumption. The most represented Croatian dry fermented sausage except for Slavonian Kulen is Slavonian homemade Sausage. Slavonian homemade Sausage is a traditional meat product from Eastern Croatia, Slavo...

Irradiated samples had higher thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) than nonirradiated at day 0 but the difference disappeared during storage in both packaging types. Storage increased the production of volatiles and changed the composition of volatiles only in aerobic-packaged sausage. Irradiation and the fatty acid composition had significant effects on lipid oxidation, volatile pro...

| The \Steiner minimal tree" (SMT) of a point set P is the shortest network of \wires" which will suuce to \electrically" interconnect P. The \minimum spanning tree" (MST) is the shortest such network when only intersite line segments are permitted. The \Steiner ratio" (P) of a point set P is the length of its SMT divided by the length of its MST. It is of interest to understand which point set...

The plasma concentration of indomethacin was measured after the rectal administration of water-soluble and fatty base suppositories in rats. The results were compared with the in vitro indomethacin release from suppositories determined by Paddle method using three different types of membranes: cellulose membrane, artificial sausage membrane and natural sausage membrane. The plasma concentration...

We explore the contribution of Gaia-Sausage to stellar halo Milky Way by making use a Gaussian Mixture model (GMM) and applying it star samples LAMOST K giants, SEGUE SDSS blue horizontal branch stars. The GMM divides into two parts, which one represents more metal-rich highly radially biased component associated with an ancient, head-on collision referred as Gaia-Sausage, other is metal-poor i...

Approximately 9.2% of avian taxa are known to hybridize, a larger proportion than most vertebrate groups. However, rates of hybridization vary widely across avian orders: ducks and geese (Anseriformes) hybridize widely and frequently, while hybridization between swift species (Apodiformes) has never been recorded (Grant & Grant 1992). Seabirds, excluding the whiteheaded gull complex (Charadriif...

and Implications Irradiation dose had a significant effect on the production of volatiles in both vacuumand aerobic-packaged cooked pork sausage, but its effect on the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) values was minor. Storage increased the production of volatiles and changed the composition of volatiles only in aerobic-packaged sausage. Among the volatile components, 1-heptene a...

The colouring agents, as food additive, is believed to be necessary for producers. Because of the toxic effects of nitrite, to replace the use of nitrite mostly natural additives. Tomato industries yield a high amount of by-products mainly tomato peel and seeds. Since tomato peel is rich in lycopene, it can be added directly in 0%, 3% and 6% (w/w) in meat mixture used in beef sausage manufactur...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of clove extract (CE) (0.25%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2%) on the oxidative stability and quality deterioration of Chinese-style sausage stored for 21 d at 4°C. The addition of clove extract to sausages significantly retarded increases in Thiobarbituric Reactive Substances (TBARS) values (p<0.05), while also controlling the production of protein carbonyls (...
