Summary
In this study, the combined effects of irradiation and vacuum or modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) of fresh ground beef patties were investigated. Following irradiation, the number of surviving E. coli micro-organisms did not change significantly during storage at 4°C for 6 weeks. Temperature abuse (25°C) resulted in growth in the vacuum-packaged patties but not in MAP packages. High-CO2 MAP thus appeared to be more effective against E. coli growth following temperature abuse.
