Sensory evaluation is the ideal tool for shelf-life determination. With the objective to develop an easy shelf-life indicator, color (L*, a*, b*, chroma and hue angle), total soluble solids (TSS), firmness (F), pH, acidity, and the sensory attributes of appearance, brightness, browning, odor, flavor, texture, color, acidity and sweetness were evaluated in fresh cut mangoes (FCM) stored at 5, 10...

The effects of Mentha pulegium water extract dipping on quality and shelf life of silver carp during superchilled storage were investigated. Fish samples were treated with water extract of 1 and 3%M.pulegium, and then stored at -3 οC for 30 days. The control and the treatedfish samples were analyzed periodically for chemical (pH, PV, TBA, TVB-N), and sensory characteristics. The results indicat...

Recently, consumers have become more concerned with foods contain natural ingredients in terms of health and economic. Hence, in this study, the effects of concentrate of smoked and sun dried raisin were investigated at 3 levels (1, 3 and 5%) as a natural humectant to improve the quality and shelf life of flat bread. Results showed that addition of smoked and sun dried raisin improved quality a...

This study was aimed at assessing the pigment and lipid stability characterising microbial ecology by classical methods metagenetics in beef with an extremely long shelf-life. Bovine longissimus thoracis et lumborum subprimals from different origins (Australia, Brazil, Ireland, United Kingdom), displaying a shelf-life 35 to 140 days vacuum packaging, were aged −1 (subzero storage) or −1/+4°C tw...
