Effect of Poly-ε-Lysine on Vacuum Packed Tilapia Stored at 4°C

Article Preview

Abstract:

Poly-ε-lysine (ε-PL) is a natural biologicalagent, it is water soluble, biodegradable, and non-toxic, so it can be used as food preservatives. Through sensory evaluation, pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), total bacteria count (TBC) and K-values analyses, the effect of poly-ε-lysine (ε-PL) on tilapia fillets stored at 4°C was investigated. The results showed that each indicator correlated well with the storage time, and ε-PL could extend the shelf-life of tilapia fillets under refrigerated condition for at least4 days in comparison with the control group. Comparison tests indicated that 0.6% solution of ε-PL has better preservation effect than 0.2% and 0.4% ε-PL solutions.
