dc.description.abstractThere has been an increase of the trend of using edible coatings to avoid food wastage and to increase the shelf life of perishable food products. The present study was conducted with the aim to analyze the effects of lemongrass oil incorporated in Carboxy Methyl Cellulose (CMC) based edible coatings on the physiochemical properties, microbial safety and oxidative stability of raw chicken. The characterization of lemongrass oil, emulsions and coatings was performed through DPPH and Folin Ciocalteu assay. After the chemical analysis, T1 (chicken meat + E.coli O157:H7+2% lemongrass oil incorporated in CMC based edible coating) was compared with positive (chicken meat) and negative control (chicken meat + E.coli O157:H7) on the basis of antimicrobial activity and quality assessment over a period of seven days stored at 4℃. CMC based edible coating significantly (p<0.05) reduced the microbial load of T1 (chicken meat + E.coli O157:H7 + 2% lemongrass oil incorporated in CMC based edible coating) as compared to positive and negative control.
