Summary

INHIBITION OF LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES CALIFORNIA AND V7 BY ACETIC, CITRIC, AND LACTIC ACIDS AT280, 286, 294 AND 308 K WAS INVESTIGATED. UP TO 0.1% OF ACETIC, CITRIC AND LACTIC ACIDS IN THE MEDIUM (TRYPTOSE BROTH) INHIBITED GROWTH: THE DEGREE OF INHIBITION INCREASED AS THE TEMPERATURE DECREASED (NO GROWTH OCCURRED IN THE PRESENCE OF 0.1% ACETIC ACID AT 280 K. L. MONOCYTOGENES WAS INACTIVATED AT ALL TEMPERATURES WHEN ACID CONCENTRATIONS WERE 0.3% OR GREATER. ACETIC ACID WAS MOST DETRIMENTAL FOLLOWED BY LACTIC AND CITRIC ACIDS.
