Protein-polysaccharide complex composition and method of use

摘要

Food products are preserved or stabilized against deterioration of organoleptic properties during storage by contacting the food products with an aqueous solution of a stabilizing composition containing at least one stabilizing acid and a protein-polysaccharide complex composition including at least one water-soluble polysaccharide and at least one substantially water-insoluble protein. Methods of preparation of the stabilizing composition and numerous methods of use of the protein-polysaccharide complex composition in the preservation of a variety of perishable seafood or other food products are also provided.
