The application of selected ion flow tube-mass spectrometry to follow volatile formation in modified-atmosphere-packaged cooked ham

Cooked pork products, i.e., sliced cooked hams maintained under modified-atmosphere-packaging (MAP), were analysed both microbiologically and with respect to volatile levels during storage. Three storage temperature ranges were compared (4–6 °C, 7–9 °C, and 11–13 °C), representing different refrigeration conditions at household level. The microbial loads were determined by plating samples on six different agar media, followed by (GTG)5-PCR...
