ABSTRACT:
The fresh meat product is encapsulated in a substantially continuous film composed of alginate material. An aqueous dispersion containing water-soluble algin is first applied to the surface of the fresh meat. Then an aqueous gelling solution is separately applied to the algin-coated meat surface to form said substantially continuous film. The film is sufficient to effectively prevent the growth of anaerobic and retard the growth of aerobic bacteria on the surface of the meat. The film is also effective to prevent dehydration and discoloration of the meat and bone thereby extending the shelf-life of the coated meat product. By evaporation, the coating of freshly slaughtered animal carcasses enhances the chilling from animal body temperature to the desired cooled storage temperature.
