Abstract
In the past our laboratory has studied theoretical aspects of water activity (aw) in relation to the microbiology of meat and meat products in high- and intermediate-moisture ranges (14, 15, 16, 17, 21), and developed instrumentation for measurement of aw (28, 29). The results obtained were used to improve preservation methods for meat products in relation to energy conservation and nitrite reduction (19, 20). The applied aspects of aw in meat preservation are now pursued further, by investigating Shelf Stable Products (SSP) and Intermediate Moisture Foods (IMF), which are meat products of industrialized and developing countries, respectively. Both SSP and IMF are based on hurdle technology.
