Effects of encapsulated rosemary extract on oxidative and microbiological stability of beef meat during refrigerated storage

摘要

In this study, the effect of rosemary extract in two free and encapsulated forms to increase the shelf life of beef meat during a 28‐day refrigerated storage period was investigated. For this purpose, rosemary was extracted using different extraction methods including ultrasound, solvent, and supercritical fluid extraction. The amount of phenolic compounds, antioxidant properties (free radical scavenging capacity of DPPH radical, ferric reducing antioxidant power), and antimicrobial activity of rosemary extract against pathogenic bacteria were evaluated. According to the results, the highest amount of phenolic compounds, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity was observed in rosemary extracted by ultrasound method that used for next study (  p
