title: [Preservation of food wastes by a mixture of quinosol and salicyclic acid].
abstract: A 90-day experiment has shown that a number of toxic gaseous contaminants are released into the atmosphere as a result of storage of mixed food wastes. The microorganisms dwelling upon decaving food wastes include different microbial species from the environment and food products. A preserving agent consisting of a mixture of quinosole and salicylic acid (1:1) has been used. The agent inhibited microbial activity and terminated processes of decay. This was indicated by a decline in the concentration of ammonia and amine compounds. In the presence of the agent fermentation processes, on the contrary, continued and increased.
