Abstract

Storage stability of chicken pickle in vinegar, packed in two types of pouches made from (i) metallized polyester/ polyethylene and (ii) coextruded film of polyethylene/polyamide/ethylene-acrylic acid films has been studied for 90 and 180 days storage at (i) accelerated condition (38°C with 90% RH), and (ii) normal or standard condition (27°C with 65% RH). Except for a progressive increase in free fatty acid, and peroxide value, no significant changes (P>0.05) in other chemical parameters were observed. A decrease (P<0.05) in sensory quality occurred with storage. The product was found to be microbiologically safe. The experimental data indicated that both the types of pouches could be used to obtain shelf-life of 90 to 180 days under the conditions investigated.
