Résumé

The applicability of time-temperature indicators (TTIs) for the quality control of modified atmosphere packaged broiler chicken cuts was evaluated under various constant and variable temperature conditions. It was found that microbiological shelf life could be considerably improved when the cold chain was carefully maintained. Temperature had a critical effect on the amount of enterobacteriaceae, proteolytic bacteria, hydrogen sulphide producing bacteria and clostridia, the microbial groups that most affect the sensory quality. The results also indicate that TTIs seemed to be useful for evaluation of the quality of broiler chicken cuts.
