Abstract:
The present study was conducted to evaluate the shelf life of dried carrot pomace (DCP) and dried pineapple pamace (DPP) incorporated chevon petties. Treated samples were prepared by incorporation of 6% DCP, 2% DPP and a combination of 3% DCP and 2% DPP. The control product was prepared by using different ingredient and chevon without any pomace. After packaging in low density polyethylene (LDPE) pouches, samples were stored at refrigeration temperature (4±1 ⁰C) and subjected to evaluate the TBARS and microbial quality at a regular interval of 4 days. Chevon petties with 3% DCP have lowest TBA value which indicates low lipolysis as compare to control and other treatments. Total plate count and yeast and mould count were within the acceptable limit up to 12th day of refrigerated storage. Coliform, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes were not detected during storage period in any sample.
