CA 2516535

The present invention relates to composition and method for inhibiting growth or propagation of spoilage or pathogen microorganisms in vegetables. Microorganisms, bacteria or yeasts, that can be naturally found or introduced into vegetables before or during their processing, such as fermentation, can be inhibited by treatment with a solution containing hydrolyzed chitosan- lactate. In this way, unprocessed and processed vegetable foods can be preserved for a longer period of time without deterioration.

La présente invention concerne une composition et un procédé qui permettent d'inhiber la croissance ou la propagation de micro-organismes putréfiants ou pathogènes dans des légumes. Par un traitement avec une solution contenant du chitosane-lactate hydrolysé, on peut détruire les micro-organismes, les bactéries ou les levures qui se trouvent naturellement dans les légumes ou qui sont introduits avant ou après leur traitement, par fermentation par exemple. De cette manière, les légumes aliments traités et non traités peuvent être conservés pendant une durée plus longue sans subir de détérioration.
