Summary

THE INFLUENCE OF POTASSIUM SORBATE ON THE RELATIVE CONCENTRATIONS OF MYOGLOBIN, OXYMYOGLOBIN AND METAMYOGLOBIN OF RAW BEEF SAMPLES WRAPPED IN PLASTIC FILMS OF DIFFERENT GASEOUS PERMEABILITY WAS DETERMINED AT 273 AND 277 K (0 AND 4 DEG C). SHELF LIFE OF VACUUM-PACKAGED BEEF TREATED WITH POTASSIUM SORBATE SOLUTIONS WAS SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED WITHOUT AFFECTING OXYGENATION CAPACITY ; USE OF POTASSIUM SORBATE IN MEAT WRAPPED IN HIGH PERMEABILITY FILMS WAS NOT CONVENIENT SINCE META-MYOGLOBIN ACCUMULATION WAS FASTER THAN IN UNTREATED MUSCLE.
