Summary

In this study, several types of pepper were tested with respect to the shelf life of fresh pork sausages packaged in a modified atmosphere then stored for 16 days at 2°C. Capsicum pepper did not prevent discoloration but inhibited lipid oxidation, whilst piper (black and white) peppers delayed discoloration, inhibited lipid oxidation and delayed the onset of off-odour. All peppers used at the highest concentrations inhibited microbial growth.
