Summary

Sausages were inoculated with Listeria innocua and subjected to pulsed light treatment. Another series of inoculated sausages were treated with nisin and pulsed light. Both series were stored at 4°C for 28 or 48 days. The combination treatment prevented microbial growth and appears to be an effective antilisterial treatment in ready-to-eat foods.
