Summary

ADDITION OF LACTIC ACID TO A PH OF 5 HAD A MARKED EFFECT ON SEVERAL BACTERIA GROUPS IN MEAT; THE EFFECT BECAME MORE PRONOUNCED DURING STORAGE. RADURIZATION (2.5 KGY) HAD A FAR GREATER EFFECT ON SHELF LIFE, ALTHOUGH AN OVERWHELMING POPULATION OF LACTIC ACID BACTERIA DEVELOPED TOWARD THE END OF THE STORAGE PERIOD. A COMBINED TREATMENT OF RADURIZATION AND LACTIC ACID HAD AN EVEN GREATER EFFECT ON THE BACTERIAL POPULATION AND THE SHELF LIFE OF MEAT THAN THAT OF THE TWO SEPARATE TREATMENTS.
