Shrimp (Penaeus monodon) preservation by using chitosan and tea polyphenol coating combined with high-pressure processing.

ABSTRACT: The present work investigated the effects of high-pressure processing (200 and 400 MPa, 5 min) combined with chitosan-tea polyphenol (1.5% and 0.5% [w/v], respectively) coating to improve the quality and stability of shrimp (Penaeus monodon) during 28 days of storage. The chemical (pH, TVB-N, TBARS), microbiological, textural, chromatic characteristics, protein oxidation, and endogenous enzyme activities of shrimps were regularly evaluated. Results showed that the combination treatment exerted a better intense antimicrobial effect, stabilized shrimp's freshness, and resulted in lower pH and TVB-N than the control sample. Also, combined treated samples had better oxidative stability than a single treatment until the end of shelf life. Although combination treatment had no significant
