Microbiostatic effect of bioactive compounds from agro-food industrial wastes on microorganisms causing food spoilage

Abstract

In this research the effect of direct contact of raw materials and agro-food industrial wastes rich in bioactive compounds (polyphenols, carotenoids) on microorganisms that cause food spoilage was evaluated. The aim of the research is to elucidate their microbiostatic action on different types of food matrix.
