Effect of chitosan coating containing Nepeta pogonosperma extract on shelf life of chicken fillets during chilled storage

Abstract

Chicken is the cheapest and most accessible source of meat. Unlike beef or pork, there are no religious or cultural restrictions on chicken consumption that have made chicken meat a high consumption in the world (Ozunlu et al., 2018). Digestible proteins (low in collagen): unsaturated fats, B-group vitamins (thiamin, vitamin B 6, and pantothenic acid) and minerals such as iron, copper, and zinc make chicken meat a valuable food. The high protein and moisture content of chicken meat provides a good medium for the growth of microorganisms, so chicken meat has a much shorter shelf life, while causing significant economic damage to producers due to the potential presence of pathogens it also threatens consumers' health.Reports have shown that chicken meat consumption was the first cause of food poisoning prevalence in the United States between

A Bioactive Chitosan−Based Film Enriched with Benzyl Isothiocyanate/α−Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex and Its Application for Beef Preservation

“…Moreover, the reduction of TVB−N level in beef sample wrapped with CS−based composite film can be related to the favorable antibacterial potential of BITC−α−CD, as we demonstrated in Table 2 . Recently, Afshar Mehrabi et al [ 75 ] also reported a retard increase of TVB−N level for CS film enriched with Nepeta pogonosperma extract packaged chicken meats during 4 °C storage and interpreted this phenomenon as the antibacterial property of the bioactive extract. Furthermore, the increment of the TVB−N value was also reported to be in good connection with the accelerated oxidation in beef samples [ 76 ].…”

Characterisation of chitosan coating incorporated with oleuropein and its effects on the quality of refrigerated chicken breasts

“…When the addition of OLE reached 0.24% and 0.32%, the samples' pH values did not significantly change from the original value after 12 days of storage. There are reports confirming that the combination of CS and Nepeta pogonosperma extract could significantly reduce the pH growth rate of chicken fillets during storage (Afshar Mehrabi et al ., 2021).…”

Comparison of antibacterial and antioxidant potentials of pure and nanoemulsified Nepeta pogonosperma essential oil

“…Moreover, lower antiradical potential (higher IC 50 ) was reported for Nepeta extracts. For example, the IC 50 value for Nepeta cataria methanol extract was 171.98 μg ml −1 (Afshar Mehrabi et al, 2021 ). Phenolic compounds are known as the main antioxidant and antiradical agents due to their hydrogen atom donation ability (Shahbazi, 2019 ).…”

“…Nepeta pogonosperma is a new species identified in 1984 (Jamzad & Assadi, 1984;Valimehr et al, 2014). The previous studies reported the chemical composition, antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant potential of N. pogonosperma (Afshar Mehrabi et al, 2021;Ali et al, 2012;Khalighi-Sigaroodi et al, 2013;Sefidkon & Akbari-Nia, 2003;Valimehr et al, 2015). The bioactivity of Nepeta species may be related to the terpenoid compounds (such as nepetalactones, sesquiterpenes, monoterpenes, and cyclopentanoid iridoid derivatives), phenolics, and flavonoids (Akdeniz et al, 2020;Formisano et al, 2011;Süntar et al, 2018).…”
