Modelling bacterial growth on prepared vegetables.
Author(s) : GORRIS L. G. M., BENNIK M. H. J., SMID E. J.
Summary
A surface model system was used to study the effect of modified atmosphere (MA) conditions on the growth of a number of psychrotrophic pathogens relevant for minimally processed vegetables (Aeromonas hydrophila, Yersinia enterocolitica, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus) and of isolates from epiphytic microflora on cut chicory endive and mungbean sprouts, obtained before and after refrigerated MA-storage. The results indicate that CO2 mainly affects the maximum specific growth rate. MA-storage does not affect the microflora as a whole but induces selective changes. When pathogens are part of the microflora, MA-storage may not suppress their outgrowth.
