People are looking for new sources of nutrition as a result of the growing global population. Alternative seafood, such as crabs, mussels, and shrimps, have gained interest recently as a source of nutrients in addition to traditional seafoods. This study aimed to develop new strategies for reducing Escherichia coli count in shrimp In our study, the effects of nisin, lactic acid, acetic acid and their combinations were investigated in shrimp contaminated with E coli. At the end of the study, a statistical difference was found between the effects of single and combined use of all substances (p<0.05). In addition, it was observed that lactic acid was the most effective with a decrease of 1.92 CFU/mL in single use, while acetic acid and nisin had a good synergistic effect with a decrease of 2.2 CFU/mL in combined use.
