Impact of chlorinated stress on thermal characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes
Main Article Content
Abstract
The results showed that the D-value significantly decreased with increasing temperature, which due to heat damaged cell. The increased temperature range resulted in L. monocytogenes being heat sensitive. NaOCl developed in the increased mortality of L. monocytogenes as the temperature increased, the D-value, Z-value and k-value of L. monocytogenes was markedly increased when compared to those of normal L. monocytogenes in both microbiological media and model food.
