Summary

The behaviour of Escherichia coli in apple juice made from 6 varieties of apples, with or without supplementation with 2 concentrations of vanillic acid was investigated. The juice samples were stored for 7 days at 4 and 15°C, and had pHs ranging from 3.13 to 3.92. Supplementation with 10 mM vanillic acid markedly reduced populations at 4 and at 15°C but also exerted an impact on the sensorial quality.
