Abstract: The influence of muscle fiber direction (parallel or perpendicular) in relation to the inoculation surface on migration of Salmonella Enteritidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli into raw chicken breasts was examined. Chicken breast samples with two types of surface fibers (running parallel or perpendicular to the surface) were inoculated with cultures of each bacterium. Inoculated samples were stored for 5 min, 1 h, or 24 h at 4°C.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assessed the effectiveness of using alkaline electrolyzed water (AlEW) and strong acidic electrolyzed water (StAEW) together to sterilize fresh chicken breasts and beef liver contaminated with harmful bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli.
  • Results showed that this combination treatment significantly reduced bacterial levels by over 1 log CFU/g and lowered the expression of a specific toxin-producing gene in Staphylococcus aureus.
  • Importantly, the combination treatment did not adversely affect key quality aspects of the meat, such as pH, color, and texture, when compared to untreated samples.
