Packaging optimisation for portioned Canestrato di Moliterno cheese

Abstract: Different polymeric films and various headspace conditions (air, vacuum and four different modified atmosphere packaging) were combined to select a packaging system that assured the desired shelf life for two types of portioned Canestrato di Moliterno cheese ripened for 4 and 12 months. To evaluate the quality deterioration of the packaged cheese samples under refrigerated conditions, texture change, weight loss, water activity, moisture content, microbial contamination, pH and sensory attributes were monitore… Show more

“…Moisture content was moreover affected by the addition of beta-glucan due to its high water-holding properties [18]. The effect of carbon dioxide in MAP was observed as well in other food matrices when the moisture decreased during storage due to the migration of water into other parts of the packaging [19]. Moreover, this could be explained by the fact that CO 2 has high diffusivity into the product which cause changes of microstructure of bread and distribution of water molecules in the whole product volume [20].…”

“…For this reason, fluidized bed drying was employed as an efficient alternative to preserve perishable food [4]. However, the need for proper packaging for traditional products has pushed to design packaging conditions according to the characteristics of each food [2]. Shelf life is an important feature of all foods and it may be define as the period that the food retains an acceptable level of eating quality from a safety and organoleptic point of view [10].…”
