A food with an extended shelf-life and a method of extending shelf-life of food is provided herein. The extended shelf-life is provided by treating the food with isothiocyanate, a non-aromatic cyclic ketone, a boronic acid, a ligand and their precursors.

The present invention relates to Lactococcus starter cultures that are compatible with nisin-producing strains and simultaneously do not degrade nisin. The present invention defines starter cultures that can be used in combination with nisin-producing cultures, without degradation of nisin. Furthermore, it is also disclosed that starter cultures can be made by a combination of nisin-producing strains and strains containing nisin-immunity genes and/or and absent of the gene to prevent degradation of nisin.

A food with an extended shelf-life and a method of extending shelf-life of food is provided herein. The extended shelf-life is provided by treating the food with at least one shelf-life extender selected from a group consisting of an isothiocyanate, a non-aromatic cyclic ketone, a boronic acid, a ligand and their precursors.

Disclosed herein is a method for producing a package of cheese shreds. Cheese shreds and anticaking agent are mixed at a load between 2 wt. % and 10 wt. % in relation to the cheese shreds to form anticake-coated cheese shreds. The anticaking agent comprises 15-30 wt. % reducing sugar; 0.2-0.8 wt. % glucose oxidase; and 0.5-2 wt. % salt chosen from sodium chloride, calcium chloride, and magnesium chloride. The anticake-coated cheese shreds are then sealed into a package without modifying the atmosphere in the package or using an inert gas flush.

Food protecting agent composition having a pH of between 5.5 and 7.5 containing at least 2000 mg/l, preferably at least 1800 mg/l of a combination food protecting agent and guanidinium derivatives, particularly to combinations of oligo(2-(2-ethoxy)ethoxy ethyl guanidinium chloride), poly(hexamethylendiamine guanidinium chloride), polyetheramines, triethyleneglycol diamine, enzymes, PGPR, amino acids, antioxidants such as humic acids and some natural products like phytotherapeutic plant extracts.

The purpose of any raw and procesesing pruduct for catte, pig etc, fish and chicken is to prevent the development of diseases that might impair the final quality of the products. The system for catte, pig etc, fish and chicken application of food protection products on catte, pig etc, fish and chicken during packing aims to safeguard the health of the catte, pig etc, fish and chicken during the period of storage and transport to the final consumer. Since, moreover, the environmental and economic requirements imposed on modern-day fungicides are continually increasing, with regard, for example, to the spectrum of activity, toxicity, selectivity, application rate, formation of residues, and favorable preparation ability, and since, furthermore, there may be problems, for example, with resistances developing to known active compounds, a constant task is to develop new fungicide agents which in some areas at least have advantages over their known counterparts. Therefore, there is still a need to find and/or develop other bacterial, viral and fungicides for storage disease control. Some of the chemical as such are already known. It is also known, that these compounds can be used as more healthy and applicable material.
