Effect of edible coating of chitosan was evaluated on quality and shelf-life of chicken patties during refrigerated storage (4±1oC). Chicken patties were divided into three groups of which T1 was kept as control, T2 was dipped in 1% glacial acetic acid and T3 was dipped into 1.5% chitosan dissolved in 1% glacial acetic acid. All the samples were analyzed for physico-chemical parameters, microbiological quality and sensory analysis during refrigeration storage (4±1oC) at an interval of 5 days. The results revealed that T3 had significantly (P<0.05) lower pH, TBARS, Tyrosine and TVBN value as compared to other treatments while microbiological values were also significantly (P<0.05) reduced. T3 was found to be the most stable among all samples and had shelf-life of 15 days at refrigeration temperature (4±1oC) as compared to a control sample with a shelf-life of 10 days. Thus, a shelf-life extension of 5 days was observed in chicken patties dipped in 1.5% chitosan dissolved in 1.0% glacial acetic acid as compared to control at refrigeration storage.
