Abstract: The principle and study on preservation of instant meatball of modified atmosphere packing were introduced in this paper. The instant meatball packaged with PET/PE material and filled with gas mixtures of different ratios can be preserved under 4℃. And we got its shelf life via sensory evaluation and total bacterial count. It was discovered that the shelf life of modified atmosphere products could reach to 21 days, more than that of vacuum packaging.

Key words: modified atmosphere packing, instant meatball, gas mixtures, total bacterial count, shelf life
