Summary

USING A MICROTITRE PLATE METHOD THE LIMULUS LYSATE ENDOTOXIN ASSAY WAS SHOWN TO BE CAPABLE OF DETECTING PSEUDOMONAS SPP AT VIABLE CELL CONCENTRATIONS OF 100-1,000/ML. THE CHANGES IN ENDOTOXIN CONCENTRATION, MICROBIAL FLORA, PH AND EXTRACT RELEASE VOLUME OF LABORATORY-PRODUCED MINCED BEEF AND MINCED PORK STORED AT 277 K (4 DEG C) WERE MONITORED. THE ENDOTOXIN CONCENTRATION WAS SHOWN TO INCREASE WITH THE ONSET OF SPOILAGE.
