The invention describes a method of inhibiting the outgrowth of pathogens and spoilage microorganisms in high moisture (65-80% by weight) and low salt (<2.0% by weight) nutrient dense environments with a pH range of 5.5 to 8.5. The application of an organic acid or its salt with a fermentation derived antimicrobial peptide offers a robust solution to curtail growth of spores and vegetative cells without the need for chemicals such as sodium nitrite or nitrate. |

The invention provides methods for treating uncooked meat to improve the colour stability and/or for reducing the onset of rancidity. The methods comprise contacting the uncooked meat with a composition comprising succinate and one or more of glutamate, malate, citrate, isocitrate, aconitate and pyruvate as active components. Also provided are methods for packaging uncooked meat products under a modified atmosphere, especially under a low-oxygen atmosphere, wherein the meat products are treated with a composition comprising succinate and one or more of glutamate, malate, citrate, isocitrate, aconitate and pyruvate as active components. |

Based on the idea of using preservatives to prevent putrefaction of by-products during storage and transport, without refrigeration, pressurized application of preservatives as well as pressurized air is used to achieve a nebulisation of the preservatives, as well as a homogeneous distribution thereof on the by-products. This is performed every time by-products are loaded into a hopper, being dosed and applied to the apex of the cone and/or surface of the by-product stored in the hopper, so configured by the stacking of by-products. Furthermore, the storage is performed without loss of leachates, using to this end a sealed airtight hopper. Thus, the efficacy of the preservatives is maximized. Optionally, the preservative may be incorporated during the loading of the by-products, such that when the storage occurs without fluid loss from the by-products, a container that may or may not be airtight may then be used. |

A method includes preserving a meat product with propionic acid, the method including contacting meat with exogenous enzymes, maintaining the meat-enzyme mixture for a sufficient period and at a sufficient temperature for the enzyme to react with one or more meat substrates and produce propionic acid, and heating the meat-enzyme mixture for a sufficient period and at a sufficient temperature to inactivate the enzymes and cook the meat. |

Methods for treating poultry during processing for increasing the weight of the poultry are disclosed. The methods may be performed in a chill tank or other reservoir and utilize either equilibrium peracetic acid or non-equilibrium peracetic acid. The non-equilibrium peracetic acid may be prepared from hydrogen peroxide and a liquid acetyl precursor, such as triacetin. The methods comprise contacting a poultry carcass with peracetic acid-containing water at a pH of about 6 to about 9. The methods result in an increase in the weight of the processed products and an increase in a processing plant's percent yield of the processed products. |
