Universal news.

Exclusive, universal, new improved vacuum conservation system for beef muscle meat with BCL by a natural method.

Advantage :
The pieces of muscle meat vacuum-packed have a storage time of at least 3 to 5 weeks, depending on the storage temperature. A t° between 0 - 2 ° C is recommended for the best possible preservation.

1. Mist the outside of the muscle meat well with BCL. This will automatically result in a buffer pH value of 5.1.
2. After a storage time of 1 to 4 weeks the pH rises slightly to 5.15. The smell when opening the vacuum packaging is normal and fresh which gives a big difference compared to muscle meat that has not been treated with BCL.

Pictures below of prepared, vacuum-drawn pieces of pure muscle meat treated with BCL. This is particularly important for meat cutting plants as well as butchers and bacon butchers.

Buffer systems and buffer films can support meat producers in their prevention against food infections caused by harmful germs and bacteriological contamination from salmonella, listeria and E.coli 0157:H7.
By applying buffer systems in the preparation of heated meat products like ham, bacon, freshly salted and/or smoked bacon meant for slicing and pre-packaging, further gas development is avoided and the colour, taste and smell of the product remains optimal for the duration of a longer shelf life.

Buffer glucose technology

PH Liquid is a world leader in the supply of buffer systems and buffer films according to patented applications for fresh and all heated meat, liver and fish preparations, matured and cured meat and fish products.
Bufferglucose Syrup is a concentrated natural balanced extract of fructose-glucose syrup, aroma's, natural fruit-,plant- and herbal extracts, for a healthier product. Using Bufferglucose Syrup results in a production system with 50% less sodium chloride and 30-50% less nitrite in order to achieve a healthier finished product. Apart from the physiological effect against regular brine bacteria developments, it also has other regulatory effects that are very important for meat product preparation technology.
The mildly reducing effects of fructose-glucose syrup, natural flavour fermented sugar, natural plant-herbal extracts ensure regular nitrite reactions. These components are chosen in such a manner that the meat's pH value always remains within its natural limits.

Thanks to its correct and controlled composition, Bufferglucose Syrup combines high safety with a guaranteed effect.
In view of the strong effects, the prescribed quantities as well as the working method need to be observed closely so as to use the advantages of Bufferglucose Syrup to the full.
The simultaneous use of Bufferglucose Syrup and buffer phosphates results in the creation of a buffer stabilising the essential pH on its value, even in case of unfavourable circumstances.
In conjunction with the sweet and sour medium of Bufferglucose Syrup, the mildly alkaline buffer phosphates constitute a buffer of the desired pH which stabilises the pH on the effective value through its buffering effect even in case of unfavourable conditions. Bufferglucose Syrup is used in the production of pickled and smoked products and offers extraordinary benefits versus other products used for this purpose, in particular with regard to heated ham. Not only the preparation process, but also the quality and digestibility of the meat products that are prepared with Bufferglucose Syrup improve significantly.
As it is only composed of natural substances such as fructose-glucose syrup, natural flavour fermented sugar and natural plant-herbal extracts, Bufferglucose Syrup is legally allowed and there are no physiological objections against its use.
The addition of Bufferglucose Syrup accelerates the coloration process of pickled goods as initiated by nitrate or nitrite. In this process, excess nitrite in the sausage and meat mass is reduced significantly by 30-50%. It was furthermore found that the permissible quantity of physically harmful nitrite can almost be reduced by half.
Meat products treated with Bufferglucose Syrup not only look tastier, they have indeed a better aroma and a refined taste.

This is especially remarkable with products that have been in storage for quite some time.
In the case of heated sausages, use of Bufferglucose Syrup results in a tender and yet crisp casing, while uncooked sausages obtain a spicier aromatic taste (salami ranges).
Thanks to its antioxidant characteristics, Bufferglucose Syrup slows down the process of going rancid, so that longer freshness is ensured with a guaranteed buffer system.

Benefits of application

Fructose-glucose syrup, natural flavour fermented sugar and natural plant-herbal extracts are generally known to inhibit and prevent the growth or spread of Listeria, Clostridium, Salmonella and E.coli
