Author(s) : HUNG Y. C.

Summary

Electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) water is one type of functional water generated by a process of electrolysis. The EO water has unique properties such as having high oxidation-reduction potential, low pH and presence of hypochlorous acid and has a bactericidal effect on most pathogenic bacteria. The effectiveness of EO water in inactivating E. coli 0157:H7 on apples and lettuce and its effects on the quality of treated products were evaluated with good results.
