Summary

THE RESPONSE TO GAMMA RADIATION (0 TO 3.60 KILOGRAYS) OF SALMONELLA TYPHIMURIUM WAS TESTED IN OTHERWISE STERILE, MECHANICALLY DEBONED CHICKEN MEAT IN THE ABSENCE OF COMPETING MICROFLORA. RESPONSE WAS DETERMINED AT TEMPERATURES OF 253 TO 293 K (-20 TO 20 DEG C) AND WHEN THE MECHANICALLY DEBONED CHICKEN MEAT WAS PACKAGED IN VACUUM OR IN THE PRESENCE OFI PREDICTIVE EQUATIONS WERE DEVELOPED FROM THE ANALYSES OF VARIANCES OF THE RESULTING DATA. GAMMA IRRADIATION WAS SIGNIFICANTLY MORE LETHAL IN THE PRESENCE OF AIR AND AT HIGHER TEMPERATURES.
