Spoilage Potential of Pseudomonas (P. fragi, P. putida) and LAB (Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Lactobacillus sakei) Strains and Their Volatilome Profile During Storage of Sterile Pork Meat Using GC/MS and Data Analytics.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to investigate the evolution of the volatile compounds of aerobically stored sterile pork meat as a consequence of the metabolic activities of inoculated specific spoilage microorganisms. Thus, Pseudomonas fragi, Pseudomonas putida, Lactobacillus sakei and Leuconostoc mesenteroides were inoculated in monocultures, dual cultures and a cocktail culture of all strains on sterile pork meat stored aerobically at 4 and 10 °C. Microbiological and sensory analyses, as well as pH measurements, were performed, along with headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (headspace SPME-GC/MS) analysis. Data analytics were used to correlate the volatile compounds with the spoilage potential of each stain using multi
