Abstract:

The preservation effect on chilled meat coated with polymethoxyl flavonoid extract (PMF) was studied. The color, pH, TVB-N, total bacteria counts and Pseudomonas amount of chilled meat was used to evaluate its preservation effect. Results indicated that chilled meat coated with PMF exhibited an obvious fresh-keeping effect and the chilled meat treated by PMF exhibited an attenuated alteration of pH, TVB-N, total bacteria counts and Pseudomonas amount. Moreover, PMF had no effect on color of chilled meat. The shelf life of chilled meat treated with PMF was extended to 8 days.

Key words: polymethoxyl flavonoid, chilled meat, coating preservation, total bacteria counts
