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 ...

this survey was conducted on 133 egge that they were collected from isphahan markets, eggs are tested for aerobic mesophill bacteria (total count) and 186 eggs were tested for salmonella spp. contamination. the results showed 3000 to 10 million colony per gram bacteria counted in egg samples. the mean colony count was 1693000.7 percentage samples rich to mean colony count. (95% accuracy,sd2.232...

In the present study, 7% silver-low-density thin polyethylene films were successfully prepared through the melt mixing method. These films were applied to reduce the harmful antibacterial properties of Huso huso fillets at refrigeration temperatures, thus extending their shelf life. The total viable bacteria count for H. huso fillets wrapped in a 7% Ag/LDPE nanocomposite was 3.04±2.43 (log CFU/...

Studies were initiated to investigate the interactions between heterotrophic plate count bacteria and coliform organisms. We used spiked samples to show that heterotrophic plate count bacteria could reduce coliform densities by more than 3 logs within 8 days. Some heterotrophic plate count bacteria were able to cause injury to the coliform population. A significant correlation (r = 0.66; P less...

Background; Pollution of drinking water and ice is one of the most serious ways of water borne diseases spread. The purpose of this study was to investigate the bacterial contamination of the ice produced by ice factories in Bandar Abbas. Methods; In this descriptive ,cross-sectional study samples were collected from seven ice factories in Bandar Abbas. Sampling was done by standard method.   ...

background: this study investigated the interaction between heterotrophic bacteria and coliform, fecal coliforms, fecal streptococci bacteria in water supply networks. methods: this study was conducted during 2013 on water supply distribution network in aq qala city, golestan province, northern iran and standard methods were applied for microbiological analysis. the surface method was applied t...

the presence of antibacterial activity in bovine β-lactoglobulin and in α-lactalbumin hydrolysates was investigated. the plasmin-digest of β-lactoglobulin (pdβ) and of α-lactalbumin (pdα) were fractionated, using reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. the antibacterial activity of β-lactoglobulin, α-lactalbumin, nisin, plasmin, pdβ and pdα were in vitro tested against pathogenic...

Anaerobic bacteria have been identified in abundance in the airways of cystic fibrosis (CF) subjects. The impact their presence and abundance has on lung function and inflammation is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the colony count of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, lung clearance index (LCI), spirometry and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in patients with CF...
