Summary

The behaviour of Listeria monocytogenes in relation to sodium nitrite in combination with sodium chloride was evaluated in cold-process (smoked) salmon during storage at 5 or 10 deg C in either oxygen-permeable film or vacuum-sealed impermeable film. Salmon slices containing either 3 or 5% water-phase sodium chloride, with or without 190-200 ppm of sodium nitrite, were inoculated with 10 or 327 CFU/g of strain Scott A. The inhibitory contribution of sodium nitrite was relative to inoculum size, storage time and temperature, packaging method, and concentration of sodium chloride. Details are given.
