Summary

Brown soda bread had a pH of 7-9 depending on the sodium bicarbonate concentration. Part-baked bread developed ropiness after two days at room temperature. Bacillus subtilis, B. pumilus and B. licheniformis were isolated and their spores displayed D-values in bread dough of 14, 10 and 56 min at 100 deg C. Germination and growth was examined in broth at pH 6-10 and 4, 20, 30 and 37 deg C. No growth was observed at 4 deg C and pH 10. Rebaking of part-baked bread heat activated particulary B. licheniformis spores.
