Combined effects of alginate based active edible coatings and irradiation treatment on the quality characteristics of Beef Meat at 2°C by Samir Smeti, Souha Tibaoui, Hayet Ben Haj Koubaier, Atef Lakoud, Naziha Atti

“…Therefore, six treatments were developed: uncoated samples (CON); samples with edible coating (AEC); samples with edible coating enriched with 200 ppm of rosemary extract (ROS); samples with edible coating enriched with 200 ppm of myrtle extract (MYRT); irradiated samples (IRR); and irradiated samples with edible coating (IRAC). The addition of myrtle extract and the use of irradiation treatment have significantly delayed (P<0.001) the lipid oxidation of meat by lowering TBARS values to 0.39, 0.58, and 0.52 mg MDA/kg for MYRT, IRR and IRAC groups, respectively, whereas it reaches 1.14 mg of MDA/kg for CON group. …”
