Summary

The effect of heating rate, heating atmosphere, and meat age on survival of Listeria monocytogenes was examined in ground pork, as well as the ability of injured cells to recover during storage under air and vacuum packaging at 4 and 30 deg C. Significantly more survivors were observed when samples were heated at 1.3 than at 8.0 K/minute. Cells inoculated into 3-month-old pork were more sensitive to heating than cells inoculated into fresh ground pork. Other results are given.
