Type of article: Article

Summary

CHICKEN BREASTS WERE INOCULATED WITH 1-10 MILLION MICROORGANISMS/G, COOKED TO 1 OF 5 DIFFERENT COOKING TEMPERATURES, THEN EITHER VACUUM PACKAGED OR WRAPPED IN AN OXYGEN PERMEABLE FILM AND STORED AT277 K (4 DEG C) FOR UP TO 4 WEEKS OR AT 283 K (10 DEG C) FOR UP TO 10 D. BY THE FOURTH WEEK OF STORAGE AT 277 K, THE L. MONOCYTOGENES POPULATION IN ALL OF THE SAMPLES, EXCEPT THOSE COOKED TO 355.2 K (82.2 DEG C) INCREASED SIGNIFICANTLY. WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF STORAGE AT 277 K THE POPULATION INCREASED IN ONLY 3 SAMPLES: 346.9 K (73.9 DEG C) FILM OVERWRAP, 338.6 AND 344,1 K (65.6 AND 71.1 DEG C) VACUUM PACKAGED. DIFFERENCES IN PACKAGING INFLUENCED THE GROWTH RATE AT BOTH STORAGE TEMPERATURES.
