Type of article: Article

Summary

THE USE OF SODIUM LACTATE IN VACUUM-PACKED COARSE PORK LIVER PATE STORED AT 279 K (6 DEG C) INCREASES SHELF LIFE. SHELF LIFE IS CONSIDERABLY INCREASED BY ADDING 2% SODIUM LACTATE. THIS DECREASES THE WATER ACTIVITY FROM AN INITIAL VALUE OF 0.960 TO 0.945, RESULTING IN GROWTH INHIBITION OF LACTIC ACID BACTERIA, WHICH ARE NORMALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SPOILAGE OF UNTREATED VACUUM-PACKED COARSE PORK LIVER PATE STORED AT 279 K.
