The aim of this work was to investigate the possibility for the development of new meat cured products with a decreased nitrite content, but unchanged sensory char- acteristics and prolonged shelf life. Thus, the possibility to replace or to decrease the amount of the nitrite salt by including other non-toxic additive in the product making process was investigated. The effects of different recipes on both sensory charac- teristics and microbiological safety of the meat products were evaluated. The results showed that even with a very low concentration of nitrite salt, but in presence of mon- olaurin, the desired pink nuance of the meat batter could be achieved. When half of the amount of nitrite salt (0.2%) was replaced with 0.72% of monolaurin, the meat product, collagen packed sausage with both good sensory properties and micro- biological safety was produced. Thus prepared product showed the 21 times lower value for the total cell count of the bacterium Bacillus subtilis D-TMF compared to the product with only nitrite salt as a food additive.
