Studies on the chemical control of psychrophilic bacterial spoilage of fish. 4 - The effect of chemical preservatives on the growth of psychrophilic bacteria isolated from marine fish

摘要

Dehydroacetic acid and ammonia were found to be very effective in checking the growth of all the cultures at all concentrations tried. The two nitrofuran derivatives namely, semicarbazone and AF-2 were fairly effective, semicarbazone being more effective than AF-2. Sodium nitrite was found to be totally ineffective against the cultures at all concentrations tried.
