Abstract
The inhibitory effect of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), one of the antioxidants in green tea (Camellia sinensis), against Salmonella Enteritidis was evaluated in commercial braised quail eggs at two temperatures (4 and $25^{\circ}C$). Although S. Enteritidis was dose-dependently suppressed by EGCG in pure culture at $25^{\circ}C$, it was not inhibited in the sauce or eggs at this temperature. At low temperature ($4^{\circ}C$), S. Enteritidis was inhibited in both the sauce and eggs by $400{\mu}g/mL$ EGCG. Thus, EGCG at an appropriate concentration could be a useful food additive for inhibiting S. Enteritidis in braised quail eggs at low temperatures.
