Article Abstract

Shiga toxin-producing O157:H7 is a food-borne pathogen and the major cause of hemorrhagic colitis. is the genus most frequent psychrotrophic spoilage microorganisms present in milk. Two-species bacterial systems with O157:H7 non-pathogenic , and in skimmed milk at 7, 13, 19, or 25 °C were studied. Bacterial interactions were modelled after applying a Bayesian approach. No direct correlation between 's growth rate and its effect on the maximum population densities of species was found. The results show the complexity of the interactions between two species in a food model. The use of natural microbiota members to control foodborne pathogens could be useful to improve food safety during the processing and storage of refrigerated foods.

Raw milk is commonly stored at 4 °C prior to processing, a practice that can facilitate psychrotrophic proliferation, and milk physicochemical alterations and quality deterioration. This study aimed to elucidate the dynamic changes and interrelationships among microbiota, physicochemical parameters, and metabolite profiles in raw bovine and goat milk during refrigerated storage at 4 °C over a 5-day period. The results showed that both bovine and goat milk exhibited significant increases in bacterial counts, titratable acidity, zeta potential, and protein particle size, alongside decreases in pH and lipid particle size, as well as changes in color during refrigerated storage at 4 °C.

Clove extract was used to prevent lipid oxidation and microbial spoilage of chicken fillet in this research. The purpose of this study was to use 0%, 1%, 2%, and 3% concentrations of clove extract to increase the shelf life of chicken fillet at a temperature of 4°C ± 1°C for 7 days. Assessment of chemical spoilage indexes such as pH, peroxide value, thiobarbituric acid, and TVN, as well as microbial parameters (total plate count and Psychrotrophic count) was carried out in 0, 3, and 7 days, and sensory evaluation of chicken fillet (smell, texture, taste, color and total acceptability) was done.

The prevention of spoilage in food products, particularly those types that are susceptible to rapid deterioration, such as poultry meat, has historically posed a significant challenge within the food industry. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of a castor bean mucilage film fortified with carboxymethyl cellulose and incorporating ginger essential oil (GEO) on the characteristics of turkey meat. The preparation of GEO and the subsequent chemical composition analysis via gas chromatography (GC/MS) were undertaken to ascertain its properties.
