EFFECTS OF FREEZING AND FROZEN STORAGE ON THE MICROBIAL QUALITY OF WASHED MECHANICALLY RECOVERED MEAT.

Summary

WASHING REDUCES THE MICROORGANISM CONTENT OF MECHANICALLY RECOVERED MEAT (MRM) AND HAS A DETERMINING ACTION ON THE EFFECT OF FREEZING ON TOTAL FLORA. DURING FROZEN STORAGE, WASHING GENERALLY RESULTS IN A GREATER DECREASE IN THE MICROORGANISM COUNT, MAINLY OF SULFITE-REDUCING ANAEROBICS AND PATHOGENIC STAPHYLOCOCCI. MRM HAS A LOWER EMULSIFYING CAPACITY. OXIDATIVE RANCIDITY SHOWS SIMILAR RESULTS.
