Abstract

Effects of vacuum packaging on populations of total bacteria, Pseudomonas, mold and yeast, and Salmonella in chicken during storage were determined using chicken breasts vacuum-packaged and stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 15 days. Vacuum packaging effectively retarded microbial growth and maintained chicken breast quality during chilling temperature storage.
