Antimicrobial potential of Hansenula wingei dry extract in poultry cuts
Abstract
As poultry slaughter volume increases in Brazil, which ranks third in the world in production (EMBRAPA, 2020), this industry has developed new technologies to improve the quality of cuts. Brazilian poultry is internationally recognized and one of the most popular worldwide. Its versatility in properly meeting the world's demands has afforded the country world leadership in exports. However, restrictions due to the presence of pathogenic microorganisms (Salmonella spp.) have had a significant impact on animal production and especially on food safety. As it is highly perishable, just like other meat products, improper slaughtering, conservation, and transport operations can affect poultry quality, impairing its acceptance and trade. Thus, preserving product characteristics and prolonging its shelf life have been major challenges for the poultry industry.
