Three roast beef treatments were formulated to investigate the effect of nitrite concentration (0.006%, 0.012% and 0.018%) and abused chilling temperature (12°C) against control treatment (0.026% nitrite and storage at 4°C) on the chemical, microbiological and shelf life. Results showed that roast beef containing 0.026% nitrite and stored at 4°C for 25 days had the lowest thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value while the highest TBA values were in the treatment containing 0.006% added nitrite, stored at 12°C. The aerobic plate count, Enterobacteriaceae, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), and spore former count were increased throughout the storage period which was lower in 0.026% and 0.018% containing nitrite treatments while higher in other two treatments. The lowest percentage of nitrite losses during storage was in the samples having 0.026% added nitrite to roast beef. The results emphasized the risk of abused temperature and the importance of keeping this product under efficient and consistent refrigeration during storage and the use of high nitrite concentration to protect it and elongate its shelf life.展开更多

Four roast beef batches were formulated;the first three treatments were with nitrite concentrations of 0.006%, 0.012% and 0.018% and stored at abused chilling temperature (12°C), while the fourth one was a control treatment with 0.026% nitrite and storage at 4°C. Results showed that increasing nitrite concentration from 0.006% to 0.026% enhanced the shelf life of roast beef stored for 7 days without affecting the sensory characteristics whether at 12°C or 4°C since there were no significant differences (P > 0.05) between all treatments regarding color, flavor, juiciness, texture and overall acceptability. These results could direct us to use high nitrite concentration to protect this product and elongate its shelf life without affecting its preference parameters.展开更多
