  1. Prevalence of Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods, and growth boundary modeling of the selected strains in broth as a function of temperature, salt and nisin

    • International Journal of Food Properties

    • The objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat (RTE) foods, and the growth boundaries of two strains of L. monocytogenes isolated from RTE foods and one ATCC7644 strain under different temperature (4, 20, and 37°C), salt (0, 1, 2, 3, and 4% w/v), and nisin (0, 50, 100, 200, and 400 µg/mL) levels with different inoculum sizes (3, 4, 5, and 6 log10 CFU/mL).
