Summary

FRESH RIB EYE STEAKS WERE IMMERSED IN AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS OF 3 BINARY SYSTEMS CONSISTING OF OXYCHLORO SPECIES AND DILUTED ACID ACTIVATORS, WHICH, WHEN MIXED, GENERATED A CHLOROUS ACID/CHLORINE DIOXIDE SYSTEM. LIPID OXIDATION, COLOUR, PH AND WEIGHT CHANGES AS WELL AS MICROBIOLOGICAL KEEPING QUALITY OF VACUUM-PACKAGED STEAKS WERE EXAMINEDDURING 8 WEEKS STORAGE AT 275-277 K (2-4 DEG C). TWO OF THE 3 BINARY SYSTEMS TESTED REDUCED PSYCHROTROPHIC, ANAEROBIC AND FACULTATIVE ANAEROBIC AND LACTIC ACID BACTERIAL GROWTH AND STRONGLY INHIBITED ENTEROBACTERIACEAE IN THE STEAKS BUT ALSO HAD ADVERSE EFFECTS ON BEEF COLOR AND LIPID OXIDATION.
