    Notes: Ninety lamb carcasses were evaluated for shrink loss, microbial growth and temperature reduction following treatment with: (1) an edible calcium alginate coating, Flavor-Tex®; (2) plastic wrap; or, (3) no treatment (control). Lambs (n = 30) were slaughtered on three consecutive days with 10 carcasses/day being randomly assigned to each treatment. Carcasses receiving the edible coating were significantly (P 〈 0.05) lower in 24-hr shrinkage loss (1.55%) than the controls (2.77%); however, those in plastic wrap had the least amount of shrinkage (1.20%), and maintained this advantage through 7 days postmortem. Total surface microbial counts from the sirloin area indicated a significant (P 〈 0.05) reduction at day 5 and 7 for the alginate coated carcasses, with the plastic wrap carcasses having the highest counts on all days. Internal leg temperature reduction (chilling) was essentially uniform at the end of a 24-hr chill at 2°C regardless of treatment. No significant differences were observed between treatments for cooking loss, flavor, juiciness, off-odor or overall acceptability.

    Notes: Effects of a calcium alginate coating on retail beef pieces and steaks were studied. Microbiological analyses were performed on beef pieces following treatments with: (1) a calcium alginate coating; (2) a 200 ppm HOCl solution; (3) a combination of 1 and 2; (4) a coliform inoculation and/or (5) no treatment (control). Each sample was wrapped in a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film and stored at 5°C for up to 7 days. The rate of microbial growth for total and coliform counts on the meat was not significantly different with coated and uncoated meat samples. The HOCl treated meat had significantly lower total microbial counts and coliform populations when compared to either the calcium alginate or the HOCl-calcium alginate treated meat. Acceptance of the calcium alginate film involved retail display and organoleptic evaluations of 40 2.54 cm thick beef steaks. Steaks that received the calcium alginate coating were significantly lower in shrinkage loss, drip and degree of off-odor detected through 96 hr storage when compared to the uncoated steaks. The coating significantly prolonged muscle color through 96 hr storage. No significant differences were observed between treatments for appearance, surface discoloration, flavor, juiciness, tenderness, overall acceptability or cooking loss.

    Notes: Fresh beef cuts and quarters were shipped from Ellensburg, Wash. to Yokohama, Japan in refrigerated vans with either normal (ambient air) or modified (60% CO2, 25% O2, 15% N2) atmospheres. Packaging treatments involved use of polyvinyl chloride film, calcium alginate coating, cotton stockinettes, polyethylene-lined boxes and vacuum packages for rounds, chucks, ribs, loins and/or quarters. Use of a 0.02% solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) did not affect the terminal condition of beef cuts or quarters. Use of modified atmosphere was associated with significant improvements in overall appearance and desirability of beef cuts and quarters. The best method for protecting fresh beef cuts during long-distance shipments was vacuum packaging; vacuum packaged cuts were adequately protected from deterioration and weight loss during the 20–21 day shipment. The best system for protecting fresh beef quarters during long-distance, transoceanic shipments consisted of wrapping with PVC film and transport in a modified atmosphere van; however, quarters treated in this manner were not adequately protected from deterioration and received relatively low appearance ratings.
