Popis: Chitosan oligosaccharides (COs) and tea polyphenols (TPs) have antioxidant and antibacterial activities. This study aims to explore the preservative effects of 0.1 % COs alone and combined with 0.08 % TPs on soy sauce during room-temperature storage. Soy sauce treated with 0.1 % COs alone and combined with 0.08 % TPs had lower total bacterial count, Escherichia coli count and pH, and higher amino acid nitrogen and overall likeness score than those of the control group during room-temperature storage. Treatment with 0.1 % COs combined with 0.08 % TPs extended the shelf life of soy sauce by at least 15 months compared with the control group. Results showed 0.1 % COs combined with 0.08 % TPs may be a feasible method to extend the shelf life of soy sauce during room-temperature storage.
