Title:
GAS STEAM AND SMOKE PERVIOUS TUBULAR EDIBLE CASING, PRODUCTION THEREOF AND PRODUCTION OF DRY LONG-TERM PRESERVABLE UNCOOKED SAUSAGE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5934838
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Disclosed is a tubular food casing based on cellulose, preferably fiber-reinforced cellulose, which is permeable to gas, water-vapor and smoke and which includes a synthetic polymeric coating on its outside surface comprising an elastic, non-adhesive copolymer based on hydrophilic vinyl monomers, particularly a copolymer based on unsaturated carboxylic acids and the esters thereof and, optionally, a wax, particularly a wax having functional groups. This coating functions to improve the casing's resistance to degradation by cellulases and other cellulolytic enzymes. Additionally, the invention describes a process for manufacturing the food casing, in which the cellulosic material, in the gel state, is coated with an aqueous dispersion and also the use of the casing in the production of long-keeping sausages having a mold overlay on their outer surfaces.
