The aim of this study was to determine the level … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,926 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,798 accessesView PDFCite
