Summary

The presence or absence of air has no effect on the resistance to gamma irradiation of S. putrefaciens at 5 deg C. It is more resistant to gamma irradiation below the freezing point, and is equally sensitive in all kinds of meat, including minced beef, pork and turkey. Treating the meat at 1.5 kilogray helps eliminate S. putrefaciens.
