a,bValues with different letters were significantly different (P < 0.05).

A, roast chicken meat under air-packaging; M, roast chicken samples sealed in MAP with CO2/N2 (40%/60%); P, roast chicken samples sealed in MAP (CO2/N2 = 40%/60%) with 0.5% grape seed extract solution. Error bars represent standard deviations of the mean (n = 3).

Abbreviation: MAP, modified atmosphere packaging; ND, not detected.
