Author(s) : NOTERMANS S., DUFRENNE J., KEIJBETS M. J. H.
Type of article: Article
Summary
THE POTENTIAL RISK OF TOXIN PRODUCTION BY CLOSTRIDIUM BOTULINUM IN VACUUM-PACKED AND SUBSEQUENTLY COOKED POTATOES 368K (95 DEG C) FOR 40 MIN WAS DETERMINED. SPORES OF BOTH PROTEOLYTIC AND NON-PROTEOLYTIC C. BOTULINUM SURVIVED THE COOKING PROCESS. AT 283, 288 AND 293 K (10,15 AND 20 DEG C), TOXIN PRODUCTION OCCURRED BEFORE THE PRODUCT WAS SPOILED. ONLYIF STORED AT TEMPERATURES BELOW 277 K (4 DEG C) CAN THE PRODUCT BE GUARANTEED TO HAVE NO POTENTIAL PUBLIC HEALTH RISK.
