Radiosensitivity of Listeria monocytogenes at various temperatures and cell concentrations.
Author(s) : ANDREWS L. S., MARSHALL D. L., GRODNER R. M.
Type of article: Article
Summary
This study was designed to determine if initial cell concentration and/or temperature at the time of irradiation influences the radiosensitivity of L. monocytogenes. Concentrations of 1000, 1 million, and 1 billion CFU (colony-forming units)/millilitre of L. monocytogenes Scott A were exposed to 0 to 5 kilograys of gamma radiation (1.25 megaelectron volt) at 20, 4, and -80 deg C. The temperature of irradiation only influenced the radiosensitivity of L. monocytogenes at 1 billion CFU/millilitre.
