Summary

Results indicate that as little as 1 microgram of nisin/milliliter may be effective in inhibiting or retarding growth of and diarrheal enterotoxin production by vegetative cells and spores of psychrotrophic B. cereus in beef gravy at 8 deg C, a temperature exceeding that recommended for storage or for most unpasteurized, ready-to-serve meat products.
