Quantitative Oxygen Consumption and Respiratory Activity of Meat Spoiling Bacteria Upon High Oxygen Modified Atmosphere.

ABSTRACT: High oxygen modified atmosphere packaging is a commonly applied method to prolong the minimum shelf life of fresh (red) meats. Upon spoilage, changes of the initial oxygen concentration and microbiome composition can be observed. Thus, we classified the typical representative meat spoiling bacteria Brochothrix (B.) thermosphacta TMW2.2101 and the four lactic acid bacteria (LAB) Carnobacterium (C.) divergens TMW2.1577, C. maltaromaticum TMW2.1581, Leuconostoc (L.) gelidum subsp. gelidum TMW2.1618, and L. gelidum subsp. gasicomitatum TMW2.1619 along their oxygen consuming capacity, which can indicate the timeline of microbiome and sensorial changes. All bacteria were grown in a model system employing g
