Prevent Microbial Spoilage and Achieve Cleaner Labels

Microbial spoilage is a key factor in the shelf-life of meat and poultry. Testing has shown that vinegar-based ingredients protect ready-to-eat meats, fresh meat, poultry, and fish products from a variety of pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes, while also reducing total plate counts and meeting consumer demand for clean and simple labels. Buffered vinegar is different than regular vinegar, it is buffered with a base to increase the pH to a neutral level, making it have a neutral taste, as compared to regular vinegar.  

Buffered vinegar has no negative effect on meat quality including parameters such as water-holding capacity, protein denaturation, color, or flavor. It is available in liquid and dry forms making it easy to add to brines, marinades, spice blends, or direct application to meat.
