| Abstract | The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cold plasma treatment on the inactivation of microorganisms on meat surface and its influence on colour of meat and pH value. Nitrogen, argon and helium plasma were generated by high voltage discharge in a vacuum chamber (final 0.8 MPa) with exposure times of 5 and 10 min. Total number of microorganisms, psychrotrophs and number of yeast and mould were determined using plate method. Instrumental evaluation of colour parameters L* a* b* was performed by colorimeter Minolta Cr 400. Psychrotroph bacteria counts and total number of microorganisms exposed to helium and argon plasma for 10 min were reduced about 3 log cfu/cm$^{2}$ and 2 log cfu/cm$^{2}$, respectively. Increasing reductions of yeasts and moulds were also obtained and were about 3 cfu/cm$^{2}$ (helium) and 2,6 cfu/cm$^{2}$ (argon). The usage of nitrogen plasma has not resulted in any significant reduction of counts of psychrotrophs and total. number of microorganisms. Yeasts and moulds were little affected by nitrogen plasma and their numbers decrease about 1 log cfu/cm$^{2.}$ after 10 min of treatment. No significant differences in colour parameters and pH value after cold plasma treatment were observed. These results demonstrated that cold plasma has antimicrobial activity and could be a promising method of biodecontamination, but further investigations focusing on meat quality have to be determinate. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
