Abstract:
The effectiveness of the "SK" medium for growth of bacteria producing green discoloration in cured meat products was examined with the addition of various amounts of glucose (0.0%, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5% and 1.0%), pig blood (0.0%, 2.5% and 5.0%). It was found that pig blood in the medium was indispensable for growth and differentiation of the green-producing bacteria, and that its optimum concentration is 5%. The effectiveness of the medium was with addition of 0.1% glucose.
