Abstract: The microfloral change in vacuum-packaged pork during 4 ℃ storage was explored by traditional bacterial cultivation and PCR-denaturing gradient gel eletrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). Results indicated that lactic acid bacteria (LAB) exhibited a rapid increase and excessive total bacterial counts in the late stage during chilled storage. DGGE combined with the analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed a complex microflora in chilled pork at the early stage during chilled storage; in contrast, Vagococcus, Carnobacterium, Lactobacillus and Lactococcus, and Brochothrix thermosphacta were the predominant spoilage bacteria at the end of storage period.

Key words: chilled pork, vacuum package, microfloral composition, polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel eletrophoresis (PCR-DGGE)
