Industrial Processing of Algerian Table Olive Cultivars Elaborated as Spanish Style.

ABSTRACT: Olives from the Sigoise, Verdale, and Sevillana cultivars were elaborated as Spanish-style table olives by four Algerian factories, and the quality and food safety of the industrial table olives have been studied by the analysis of physicochemical and microbiological parameters. Differences were observed between the treatments carried out by the different factories throughout the manufacturing process, especially during the washing stage, but no significant differences were found between the analyzed samples for the concentration of sugars and polyphenols. The final pH values reached at the end of fermentation ranged between 5.04 and 4.27, and the titratable acidity was above 0.4% for all samples. Lactic and acetic acids were produced in mean concentrations of 0.68% and 0.21% as a result o
