The Effect of Combined Extracts from By-Products, Seaweed, and Pure Phenolics on the Quality of Vacuum-Packed Fish Burgers

The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of mixed plant extracts on chemical (pH, total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), trimethylamine nitrogen (TMA), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), biogenic amines, relative fatty acid composition) and microbiological quality...

description The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of mixed plant extracts on chemical (pH, total volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), trimethylamine nitrogen (TMA), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), biogenic amines, relative fatty acid composition) and microbiological quality indicators of vacuum-packed fish burgers stored at 0 ± 2 °C over 13 days. Three mixtures of common juniper by-product and blackberry leaves extracts (JB), <i>Padina pavonica</i> and prickly juniper needles extracts (PCJ), and blackberry leaves extract with catechin and vanillic (BCV) were tested. At the end of storage, TVB-N (15.38–20.03 mg/100 g) and TMA (10.64–15.63 mg/100 g) of burgers with extracts were significantly lower than those of the control group (22.77 mg TVB-N/100 g, 18.37 mg TMA/100 g). The TBARS values in the control burger reached 2.62 ± 0.02 µmol malondialdehyde (MDA)/100 g, while in burgers with extracts, final values were in the range of 0.62 ± 0.01 to 0.80 ± 0.02 µmol MDA/100 g. The extracts showed no effect on biogenic amine formation (tryptamine, putrescine, and cadaverine levels increased during the storage, being the lowest in BCV) or microbial counts, with the exception of the <i>Pseudomonas</i> sp. counts that were significantly lower in JB and PCJ in comparison to the control, reaching 4.1, 4.1, and 5.0 log CFU/g in JB, PCJ, and control, respectively.
