Abstract:

Spoilage bacteria of vacuum-packaged beef were isolated and identified. Microflora compositions of spoilage bacteria were analyzed during storage at low or room temperature conditions. Results indicated that isolated 28 special colonies from plates had 7 strains of Acinetobacter, 6 strains of Staphylococcus, 5 strains of Enterobacteriaceae, 3 strains of Brochothrix thermosphacta, 3 strains of Micrococcus, 2 strains of Lactobacillia, 1 strain of Pseudomonas and 1 strain of Bacillus. Storage temperature did not exhibited obvious effect on change of microflora compositions. Lactobacillia and Pseudomonas were major spoilage bacteria during storage.

Key words: beef, spoilage bacte ria, identification, microflora composition
