considering the potential benefits of edible coatings and films for storage of food materials, effect of edible calcium alginate film on shelf life of frozen lamb muscles was studied in the present research. microbial analyses including total microorganisms count and psychrophilic bacteria count and chemical analyses such as total volatile nitrogen (tvn) and moisture content determination were ...

An experiment was conducted to develop a plant extracts based quality indicator for monitoring aerobically packed chicken meat quality during storage at room temperature (25±1oC) until spoiled. Ripen black mulberry (Morus nigra) fruit extracts containing anthocyanins was used for developing quality indicator. Filter paper based indicator was exposed to the closed fresh meat environment. Changes...

In the present study, the antioxidant and antimicrobial effects of essential oil (EO) and extract of Pimpinella affinis on the shelf life of rainbow trout during storage at refrigerator temperature based on three indicators of microbial, chemical and sensory quality parameters were evaluated. For this purpose, fish samples were stored in zein coatings containing 1.00% EO and 2.00% extr...

effects of catechin for preventing black spots forming in whiteleg shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei) were evaluated. for processing whole shrimp, catechin was used at a concentration of 0.2 and 0.3 % for 15 minutes. sodium metabisulfite was used at a concentration of 3 % for 10 minutes as control samples. without antioxidant shrimp were used as control samples too. treatments quality was evaluated ...

to examine the effects of different sources of rumen-degradable carbohydrates on rumen fermentation, nitrogen metabolism and performance of holstein dairy cows, four lactating holstein cows fitted with rumen cannulae in a 4×4 latin square with four diets and four 28 day periods each, were employed. experimental diets contained different levels of pure sucrose and corn starch in which sucrose wa...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the edible coating of Cinnamon Essential Oil (CEO) and Rosemary Essential Oil (REO) incorporated into alginate coating to maintain chemical and sensorial characteristics of chicken meat under refrigeration conditions. Firstly in vitro antioxidant activity of essential oils was evaluated. Then fresh c...

The aim of the this study was to have a comparison between Zataria multiflora and Rosemarinus officinalis extractson quality of minced frozen silver carp preserved in cold storage temperature -18°C for six months. In this research, one control and three treatments of minced silver carp were prepared as Tr1 (+ Zataria), Tr2 (+Rosemary) and Tr3 (mixed with Rosemary and Zataria) all in normal pac...
