Abstract

Fresh meat or fish is preserved by contacting the meat or fish with a tetracycline antibiotic, including oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and tetracycline, and irradiating the meat or fish with g or b radiation, preferably after the treatment with the antibiotic. Sorbic acid, or an ester or salt of sorbic acid, and other antimycotic agents may be included in the treatment with the antibiotic. Preferred amounts are 1-20 p.p.m. tetracycline antibiotic, 500-2000 p.p.m. sorbic acid compound and 65,000-500,000 rep of radiation. Antibacterially active tetracycline compounds, sorbic acid compounds and sources of radiation are mentioned. According to an example, 0.1 ml. of a solution in propylene glycol-glycerol of sorbic acid and oxytetracycline was spread over a 16-square-inch section of rubber hydrochloride film and a 5 g. sample of steak was then wrapped tightly in the film and heat sealed. The sealed sample was irradiated at 105 rep; the sample so treated was microbiologically sound after 30 days at 2 DEG C. in humidified conditions. Other examples are directed to the preservation of ground beef in frankfurter casings within a loose overwrap of aluminium and of fish fillets. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 710,017.
