Research Note: Combined Effects of NaCl, NaOH, and Biocides (Monolaurin or Lauric Acid) on Inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes and Pseudomonas spp.

摘要

This study highlighted combinations of chemical stresses that could decrease or eliminate Listeria monocytogenes and Pseudomonas spp. Surviving in food processing plants. Strains of L. Monocytogenes, Pseudomonas fragi, and Pseudomonas Fluorescens isolated from processing environments (meat and milk) were grown at 20 deg. C up to the early stationary phase. The Strains were then subjected to 30 min of physicochemical treatments.
