to solve the problems of bacterial

product freshness. By using a sub
stance called sodium lactate, they
have been able to improve color,
flavor and freshness of cooked
roast beef products.

Sodium lactate is the salt of the
organic acid, lactic acid. Organic
acids are used in the meat industry
to control microbial growth on
carcasses and retail meats. But
little is known about the counter
part salts, like sodium lactate, and
their effects on cooked meat
products. ,
“Sodium lactate has been used
in .the bakery industry to decrease
stalcness in breadis and cakes,”
said Dr. Rhonda Miller, Texas A
& M University. “Its only use in
the meat industry presently is for
flavor enhancement and shelf-life 1
extension, primarily in poultry
products. But little is known about
how it might further enhance a
cooked beef product."
