Summary

Internal end-point temperature (EPT), packaging system and storage time affected chemical stability and microbiological quality of chicken meat. Patties of broiler leg muscle were heated to EPT of 60, 65, 70, 75, 80 or 85 deg C, packaged in polyethylene bags or vacuum skin packs and stored at 4 deg C up to 14 days. Influence of EPT on microbial plate counts, on thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, and on volatiles like hexanol and pentanol is examined.
