Summary

COOKED CORNED BEEF MADE WITH NORMAL (CA 2.5%) OR A REDUCED (CA 1.5%) LEVEL OF SALT WERE INOCULATED WITH CLOSTRIDIAL SPORES OR WITH STAPHYLOCOCCI AND INCUBATED AT TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM 278 TO 303 K (5 TO 30 DEG C). GROWTH OF INDIGENOUS MICROFLORA, STAPHYLOCOCCI, OR CLOSTRIDIA WAS SIMILAR AT BOTH SALT LEVELS AT A GIVEN INCUBATION TEMPERATURE. OUTGROWTH OF CLOSTRIDIAL SPORES OCCURRED IN GROUND COOKED CORNED BEEF WHICH CONTAINED THE NORMAL RESIDUAL NITRITE OF 40-45 PPM ; READDITION OF NITRITE TO 150 PPM AT THE TIME OF INOCULATION MARKEDLY REDUCED GROWTH.
