Abstrakt: Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) is widely used in food industry to extend the microbiological shelf life of meat. Common CO 2 -containing gas atmospheres for poultry meat packaging are either nearly O 2 -free or high O 2 MAPs. In this work, we compared spoilage microbiota of skinless chicken breast in CO 2 /O 2 (30/70%) and CO 2 /N 2 (30/70%) MAP, which are culturable with conventional methods and identified isolates by MALDI-TOF MS. These data were compared to metatranscriptome sequencing enabling a culture-independent overview on the composition of microbiota at species level. While typical MAP meat spoilers were confirmed in the transcriptomic approach, we also found high numbers of transcripts mapping to Photobacterium spp. sequences in these samples. As photobacteria were recently shown to occur in different MAP and vacuum packaged meats, we used the respective part of the metatranscriptomic data for prediction of Photobacterium spp. major metabolic routes in situ, upon growth in MAP poultry meat. It is predicted that they employ similar metabolism in both atmospheres: In the lack of carbohydrates upon meat spoilage, the pyruvate pool is filled via glycerol originating from lipolysis and amino acid conversions. From the pyruvate pool, gluconeogenesis is fed enabling cell wall biosynthesis and growth as well as catabolism to lactate and other metabolites, or anaplerosis towards the citric acid cycle. Production is predicted of several biogenic amines including tyramine and cadaverine, enabling generation of proton motive force. Taken together, photobacteria express metabolic pathways upon growth on meat, which should lead to compounds overlapping with those of known potent meat spoilers.
