Abstract
Novel antimicrobial emitting aerogels based on starch/cellulose/Thymus daenensis Celak essential oil (SC-TDEO) were developed and optimized for antimicrobial packaging of Koopeh cheese. An aerogel formulation containing cellulose (1 %; extracted from sunflower stalks) and starch (5 %) in a 1:1 ratio was selected for in vitro antimicrobial assay and subsequent cheese application. The minimum inhibitory dose (MID) of TDEO in the vapor phase against Escherichia coli O157:H7 was determined by loading various concentrations of TDEO onto the aerogel, and an MID of 256 μL/Lheadspace was recorded. Aerogels containing TDEO at 25 × MID and 50 × MID were then developed and used for cheese packaging. During a 21-day storage period, cheeses treated with SC-TDEO50 MID aerogel exhibited a significant 3-log reduction in psychrophile counts and a 1-log reduction in yeast-mold counts. Moreover, significant changes in the population of E. coli O157:H7 were observed in cheese samples. After 7 and 14 days of storage with SC-TDEO25 MID and SC-TDEO50 MID aerogels, the initial bacterial count became undetectable, respectively. Sensory evaluations indicated that the samples treated with SC-TDEO25 MID and SC-TDEO50 aerogels received higher scores compared to the control group. These findings demonstrate the potential of the fabricated aerogel to develop antimicrobial packaging suitable for cheese applications.

Abstract
The tremendous rise in the consumption of antimicrobial products had aroused global concerns, especially in the midst of pandemic COVID-19. Antimicrobial resistance has been accelerated by widespread usage of antimicrobial products in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the widespread use of antimicrobial products releases biohazardous substances into the environment, endangering the ecology and ecosystem. Therefore, several strategies or measurements are needed to tackle this problem. In this review, types of antimicrobial available, emerging nanotechnology in antimicrobial production and their advanced application have been discussed. The problem of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) due to antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB)and antimicrobial resistance genes (AMG) had become the biggest threat to public health. To deal with this problem, an in-depth discussion of the challenges faced in antimicrobial mitigations and potential alternatives was reviewed.

Dirpan A, Djalal M, Ainani AF. A Simple Combination of Active and Intelligent Packaging Based on Garlic Extract and Indicator Solution in Extending and Monitoring the Meat Quality Stored at Cold Temperature. Foods 2022; 11:foods11101495. [PMID: 35627064 PMCID: PMC9141895 DOI: 10.3390/foods11101495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 05/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Safety and quality, as the major concerns of meat, are highly dependent on the ingredients and packaging techniques used. A basic combination of active and intelligent packaging is believed to be capable of preserving product quality, extending shelf life, and monitoring product deterioration. Therefore, this study aimed to extend and monitor the beef quality at cold temperatures (4 ± 1 °C). The active packaging applied garlic extract (0%, 15%, and 20% (w/w)) to release anti-microbial agents. Meanwhile, the intelligent paper applied a combination of bromothymol blue (BTB) and phenol red (PR) solutions at pH 5.00. The results showed that beef packed without the addition of garlic extract had already deteriorated on the 6th day of storage while, with the addition of garlic extract (15% and 20%) rotted on the 12th day. The intelligent indication label’s color profile changed from dark yellow (fresh), to reddish-yellow (to be consumed immediately), to faded red (rotten). The color change of the intelligent indicator label in response to all meat deterioration criteria demonstrates a linear correlation for determining the extent of rottenness during storage. Therefore, this simple combination of active paper and intelligent indicator can be used to extend the shelf life and monitor meat quality.

Εvaluation of the microbial stability and shelf life of 50% NaCl-reduced traditional Greek pork meat product "Syglino of Monemvasia" stored under vacuum at different temperatures. Heliyon 2021; 7:e08296. [PMID: 34778585 PMCID: PMC8577161 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2021.e08296] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2021] [Revised: 08/19/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Nowadays, consumers are increasingly concerned about nutrition and health issues. "Syglino of Monemvasia" is a traditional Greek cooked and smoked, sliced pork meat product. Although this is a nutritious food, its consumption should be done in moderation due to the pickling process of its preparation. This product was thus here optimized to contain half salt (NaCl) amount and its microbial stability and shelf life was then assessed in comparison to the already available commercial product. For this, the total viable counts (TVCs) and some critical specific spoilage associations were enumerated at each product type during vacuum incubation at four different temperatures (0, 5, 10, and 15 °C). The alterations in pH, aw, color, and some other crucial sensory attributes of each product were also periodically monitored. The new low-salt product was found to remain microbiologically stable under refrigerated vacuum storage for approximately two weeks, being finally spoiled by Brochothrix thermosphacta grown above 107 CFU/g, ultimately resulting in the deterioration of taste, odor, and overall appearance of the product, and thus leading to its subsequent organoleptic rejection. Despite its limited shelf life, the 50% NaCl-reduced "Syglino" could be released in the local market provided that the cooling chain is maintained throughout its distribution (≤5 °C) and at the same time consumers are willing to accept its milder taste. Although salt replacers could have been used to improve its flavor and at the same time increase its shelf life, the product here developed without the use of such alternatives will hopefully contribute to the taste training of its consumers for less salt in their diet, keeping in parallel its clean label with no added preservatives and other food additives.
