Abstract

The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of Nisin and Sodium lactate on the microbial and chemical properties of Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) burger in modified atmosphere packaging  andconsisted of four treatments conventional packaging (Treatment 1), CO

45% (Treatment 4). Samples were assayed  on the 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 days with three replications during the refrigerator storage at 4°C. The parameters were microbial load (TVC, pH, TVB-N, TVBA, PV, FFA), and the results showed that with increasing levels of Carbon dioxide and Nitrogen and decreasing Oxygen levels, the amount of biochemical indices (TVB-N, TBA, PV, FFA) increased. The TVB-N, PV and FFA in CO
