Summary

HOMOGENATES OF STERILIZED CRAB, SHRIMP, AND OYSTER MEATS WERE INOCULATED WITH LOG PHASE CELLS OF V. CHOLERAE 01 (LOUISIANA STRAIN 5875) AND PLACED IN FROZEN AND REFRIGERATED STORAGE. THE NUMBER OF V. CHOLERAE CELLS DECREASED OVER TIME, BUT SURVIVING CELLS PERSISTED IN REFRIGERATED AND FROZEN SAMPLES FOR LONGER THAN 3 WEEKS. SURVIVAL DIFFERENCES WERE OBSERVED AMONG SEAFOODS AND BETWEEN REFRIGERATED AND FROZEN STORAGE CONDITIONS.
