The combined effects of subzero temperature and high pressure on the inactivation of Escherichia coli K12TG1 were investigated. Cells of this bacterial strain were exposed to high pressure (50 to 450 MPa, 10-min holding time) at two temperatures (-20 degrees C without freezing and 25 degrees C) and three water activity levels (a(w)) (0.850, 0.992, and ca. 1.000) achieved with the addition of glycerol. There was a synergistic interaction between subzero temperature and high pressure in their effects on microbial inactivation. Indeed, to achieve the same inactivation rate, the pressures required at -20 degrees C (in the liquid state) were more than 100 MPa less than those required at 25 degrees C, at pressures in the range of 100 to 300 MPa with an a(w) of 0.992. However, at pressures greater than 300 MPa, this trend was reversed, and subzero temperature counteracted the inactivation effect of pressure. When the amount of water in the bacterial suspension was increased, the synergistic effect was enhanced. Conversely, when the a(w) was decreased by the addition of solute to the bacterial suspension, the baroprotective effect of subzero temperature increased sharply. These results support the argument that water compression is involved in the antimicrobial effect of high pressure. From a thermodynamic point of view, the mechanical energy transferred to the cell during the pressure treatment can be characterized by the change in volume of the system. The amount of mechanical energy transferred to the cell system is strongly related to cell compressibility, which depends on the water quantity in the cytoplasm. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to compare high pressure resistance of Listeria monocytogenes strains at 25 degrees C and 50 degrees C at 350 MPa and to use high pressure (250 MPa and 350 MPa) at 30 degrees C and 40 degrees C for the inactivation of the relatively most pressure resistant strain inoculated in pasteurized apple, apricot, cherry and orange juices. L. monocytogenes CA was found to be the relatively most pressure resistant strain and increasing pressurization from 250 MPa to 350 MPa at 30 degrees C had an additional three to four log cycle reduction in viability, still leaving viable cells after 5 min. When 350 MPa at 40 degrees C for 5 min was applied more than eight log cycle reduction in cell population of all fruit juices was achieved. This study demonstrated that low temperature (40 degrees C) high pressure (350 MPa) treatment has the potential to inactivate relatively pressure resistant L. monocytogenes strains inoculated in different fruit juices within 5 min. 相似文献

Spores of Bacillus anthracis are known to be extremely resistant to heat treatment, irradiation, desiccation, and disinfectants. To determine inactivation kinetics of spores by high pressure, B. anthracis spores of a Sterne strain-derived mutant deficient in the production of the toxin components (strain RP42) were exposed to pressures ranging from 280 to 500 MPa for 10 min to 6 h, combined with temperatures ranging from 20 to 75 degrees C. The combination of heat and pressure resulted in complete destruction of B. anthracis spores, with a D value (exposure time for 90% inactivation of the spore population) of approximately 4 min after pressurization at 500 MPa and 75 degrees C, compared to 160 min at 500 MPa and 20 degrees C and 348 min at atmospheric pressure (0.1 MPa) and 75 degrees C. The use of high pressure for spore inactivation represents a considerable improvement over other available methods of spore inactivation and could be of interest for antigenic spore preparation. 相似文献

Murine norovirus (strain MNV-1), a propagable norovirus, was evaluated for susceptibility to high-pressure processing. Experiments with virus stocks in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium demonstrated that at room temperature (20 degrees C) the virus was inactivated over a pressure range of 350 to 450 MPa, with a 5-min, 450-MPa treatment being sufficient to inactivate 6.85 log(10) PFU of MNV-1. The inactivation of MNV-1 was enhanced when pressure was applied at an initial temperature of 5 degrees C; a 5-min pressure treatment of 350 MPa at 30 degrees C inactivated 1.15 log(10) PFU of virus, while the same treatment at 5 degrees C resulted in a reduction of 5.56 log(10) PFU. Evaluation of virus inactivation as a function of treatment times ranging from 0 to 150 s and 0 to 900 s at 5 degrees C and 20 degrees C, respectively, indicated that a decreasing rate of inactivation with time was consistent with Weibull or log-logistic inactivation kinetics. The inactivation of MNV-1 directly within oyster tissues was demonstrated; a 5-min, 400-MPa treatment at 5 degrees C was sufficient to inactivate 4.05 log(10) PFU. This work is the first demonstration that norovirus can be inactivated by high pressure and suggests good prospects for inactivation of nonpropagable human norovirus strains in foods. 相似文献

Spores of Clostridium sporogenes were found to be resistant to ultra high pressure, with treatments of 600 MPa for 30 min at 20 °C causing no significant inactivation. Combination treatments including heat and pressure applied simultaneously (e.g. 400 MPa at 60 °C for 30 min) or sequentially (e.g. 80 °C for 10 min followed by 400 MPa for 30 min) proved more effective at inactivating spores. Pressure cycling (e.g. 60 MPa followed by 400 MPa at 60 °C) also reduced spore numbers. Overall, these pressure treatments resulted in less than a 3 log reduction, and it was concluded that the spores could not be inactivated by pressure alone. This could indicate that for the effective inactivation of bacterial spores, high pressure technology may have to be used in combination with other preservation methods. 相似文献

The objective of this study is to determine the effect of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) on inactivation of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris vegetative cells in a model system (BAM broth) and in orange, apple and tomato juices. The shelf-life stability of pressurized juices is also studied. In general the viability loss was enhanced significantly as the level of pressure and temperature were increased (P < 0.05). 4.70 log cycle reduction was obtained after pressurization at 350 MPa at 50 °C for 20 min in BAM broth whereas thermal treatment at 50 °C for 20 min caused only 1.13 log cycle inactivation showing the effectiveness of HHP treatment on inactivation. The D values for pressure (350 MPa at 50 °C) and temperature (50 °C) treatments were 4.37 and 18.86 min in BAM broth, respectively. All juices were inoculated with A. acidoterrestris cells to 106 c.f.u./ml and were pressurized at 350 MPa at 50 °C for 20 min. More than 4 log cycle reduction was achieved in all juices studied immediately after pressurization. The pressurized juices were also stored up to 3 weeks at 30 °C and the viable cell numbers of A. acidoterrestris in orange, apple and tomato juices were 3.79, 2.59 and 2.27 log cycles, respectively after 3 weeks. This study has indicated that A. acidoterrestris vegetative cells can be killed by HHP at a predictable rate even at temperatures at which the microorganism would normally grow. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of high pressure (HP) on the inactivation of microbial contaminants in Cheddar cheese (Escherichia coli K-12, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, and Penicillium roqueforti IMI 297987). Initially, cheese slurries inoculated with E. coli, S. aureus, and P. roqueforti were used as a convenient means to define the effects of a range of pressures and temperatures on the viability of these microorganisms. Cheese slurries were subjected to pressures of 50 to 800 MPa for 20 min at temperatures of 10, 20, and 30 degrees C. At 400 MPa, the viability of P. roqueforti in cheese slurry decreased by >2-log-unit cycles at 10 degrees C and by 6-log-unit cycles at temperatures of 20 and 30 degrees C. S. aureus and E. coli were not detected after HP treatments in cheese slurry of >600 MPa at 20 degrees C and >400 MPa at 30 degrees C, respectively. In addition to cell death, the presence of sublethally injured cells in HP-treated slurries was demonstrated by differential plating using nonselective agar incorporating salt or glucose. Kinetic experiments of HP inactivation demonstrated that increasing the pressure from 300 to 400 MPa resulted in a higher degree of inactivation than increasing the pressurization time from 0 to 60 min, indicating a greater antimicrobial impact of pressure. Selected conditions were subsequently tested on Cheddar cheese by adding the isolates to cheese milk and pressure treating the resultant cheeses at 100 to 500 MPa for 20 min at 20 degrees C. The relative sensitivities of the isolates to HP in Cheddar cheese were similar to those observed in the cheese slurry, i.e., P. roqueforti was more sensitive than E. coli, which was more sensitive than S. aureus. The organisms were more sensitive to pressure in cheese than slurry, especially with E. coli. On comparison of the sensitivities of the microorganisms in a pH 5.3 phosphate buffer, cheese slurry, and Cheddar cheese, greatest sensitivity to HP was shown in the pH 5.3 phosphate buffer by S. aureus and P. roqueforti while greatest sensitivity to HP by E. coli was exhibited in Cheddar cheese. Therefore, the medium in which the microorganisms are treated is an important determinant of the level of inactivation observed. 相似文献

Sporulation temperature affects initiation of germination and inactivation by high hydrostatic pressure of Bacillus cereus 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
The influence of sporulation temperature (20, 30 and 37 °C) on the heat resistance and initiation of germination and inactivation by high pressure on Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 spores was investigated. Spores sporulated at 37 °C were the most heat-resistant. However, spores sporulated at 20 °C were more resistant to the initiation of germination and inactivation by high pressure. Spores were more sensitive to pressure at higher treatment temperatures. At 25 °C, there was an optimum pressure (250 MPa) for the initiation of germination for the three suspensions; at higher temperatures an increase of pressure up to 690 MPa caused progressively more germination. Resistance to the germinability and inactivation by high pressure of the spore population was distributed heterogeneously. Semilogarithmic curves of the ungerminated and survival fraction of B. cereus spores were concave. The resistant fraction of the spore population was lower at higher treatment temperatures. At 60 °C after 30 s of treatment at 690 MPa almost 5 log cycles of the population of B. cereus sporulated at 20 °C was germinated, and more than 7 log cycles of the population of B. cereus sporulated at 30 and 37 °C. The same treatment inactivated 4, 6 and 7 log cycles of the population of B. cereus sporulated at 20, 30 and 37 °C, respectively. 相似文献

Alternating cycles of exposure to high pressure and outgrowth of surviving populations were used to select for highly pressure-resistant mutants of Escherichia coli MG1655. Three barotolerant mutants (LMM1010, LMM1020, and LMM1030) were isolated independently by using outgrowth temperatures of 30, 37, and 42 degrees C, respectively. Survival of these mutants after pressure treatment for 15 min at ambient temperature was 40 to 85% at 220 MPa and 0.5 to 1.5% at 800 MPa, while survival of the parent strain, MG1655, decreased from 15% at 220 MPa to 2 x 10(-8)% at 700 MPa. Heat resistance of mutants LMM1020 and LMM1030 was also altered, as evident by higher D values at 58 and 60 degrees C and reduced z values compared to those for the parent strain. D and z values for mutant LMM1010 were not significantly different from those for the parent strain. Pressure sensitivity of the mutants increased from 10 to 50 degrees C, as opposed to the parent strain, which showed a minimum around 40 degrees C. The ability of the mutants to grow at moderately elevated pressure (50 MPa) was reduced at temperatures above 37 degrees C, indicating that resistance to pressure inactivation is unrelated to barotolerant growth. The development of high levels of barotolerance as demonstrated in this work should cause concern about the safety of high-pressure food processing. 相似文献

Kinetic studies on the isothermal high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) inactivation of Escherichia coli in liquid whole egg (LWE) were performed at 5 and 25 degrees C in the pressure range of 250-400 MPa. The characteristic tailing inactivation curves were described by a first-order biphasic model. As compared to a previous rheological study, it is suggested that the phase change of LWE during pressure treatment affects the inactivation rate of E. coli. Within the processing criteria where the rheological properties of LWE were still comparable to those of fresh LWE, HHP treatments at 5 degrees C induced more E. coli inactivations than those at 25 degrees C. From the results of approximately 3 log reductions of E. coli and over 5 log reductions of Pseudomonas and Paenibacillus, HHP treatment of LWE at 5 degrees C is regarded to be as effective as conventional thermal pasteurization. However, no post-process contamination and the consistency of temperature during preparation, HHP treatment, and storage provide clear processing advantages. 相似文献

Application of high hydrostatic pressure (200, 300, 350 and 400 MPa) at 5 degrees C for 30 min to different micro-organisms, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, moulds and yeasts, proved to be more effective in inactivating these organisms than treatments at 20 degrees C for 10 min and at 10 degrees C for 20 min. Moulds, yeasts, Gram-negative bacteria and Listeria monocytogenes were most sensitive, and their populations were completely inactivated at pressures between 300 and 350 MPa. The same conditions of pressure, temperature, and time were applied to different vegetables (lettuce, tomato, asparagus, spinach, cauliflower and onion), achieving reductions of from 2-4 log units in both viable mesophiles and moulds and yeasts at pressures of between 300 and 400 MPa. Sensory characteristics were unaltered, especially in asparagus, onion, tomato and cauliflower, though slight browning was observed in cauliflower at 350 MPa. Flow cytometry was applied to certain of the microbial populations used in the above experiment before and after the pressurization treatment. The results were indicative of differing percentage survival rates depending on micro-organism type, with higher survival rates for Gram-positive bacteria, except L. monocytogenes, than in the other test micro-organisms. Growth of survivors was undetectable using the plate count method, suggesting that micro-organisms suffering from pressure stress were metabolically inactive though alive. The pressurization treatments did not inactivate the peroxidase responsible for browning in vegetables. Confocal microscopic examination of epidermal tissue from onion showed that the enzyme had been displaced to the cell interior. Use of low temperatures and moderately long pressurization times yielded improved inactivation of micro-organisms and better sensorial characteristics of the vegetables, and should lower industrial costs. 相似文献

Salmonella enteritidis-inoculated poultry sausages were pressurized at 500 MPa by combining different times (10 and 30 min) and temperatures (50, 60 and 70 degrees C) or heat treated with the same temperature-time combinations and a standard cooking (75 degrees C for 30 min). Counts of Salm. enteritidis and mesophilic bacteria were determined. Most pressure treatments generated statistically higher reductions than the corresponding heat treatments alone. Lethalities of about 7.5 and 6.5 log cfu g(-1) for Salm. enteritidis and mesophiles, respectively, were found in pressurized sausages. There was no significant difference in counts between pressurization at 60 degrees C for 30 min or at 70 degrees C and the standard cooking. High-pressure processing is a suitable alternative method in poultry sausage manufacture. 相似文献

Inactivation of Salmonella Typhimurium and Listeria monocytogenes using high-pressure treatments: destruction or sublethal stress? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
AIMS: To investigate potential resuscitation of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella Typhimurium after high hydrostatic pressure treatments. METHODS AND RESULTS: Pressure treatments were applied at room temperature for 10 min on bacterial suspensions in buffers at pH 7 and 5.6. Total bacterial inactivation (8 log(10) CFU ml(-1) of bacterial reduction) obtained by conventional plating was achieved regarding both micro-organisms. Treatments at 400 MPa in pH 5.6 and 600 MPa in pH 7 for L. monocytogenes and at 350 MPa in pH 5.6 and 400 MPa in pH 7 for S. Typhimurium were required respectively. A 'direct viable count' method detected some viable cells in the apparently totally inactivated population. Resuscitation was observed for the two micro-organisms during storage (at 4 and 20 degrees C) after almost all treatments. In the S. Typhimurium population, 600 MPa, 10 min, was considered as the treatment achieving total destruction because no resuscitation was observed under these storage conditions. CONCLUSIONS: We suggest a delay before performing counts in treated samples in order to avoid the under-evaluation of surviving cells. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The resuscitation of pathogen bacteria after physical treatments like high hydrostatic pressure has to be considered from the food safety point of view. Further studies should be performed in food products to study this resuscitation phenomenon. 相似文献

High pressure is an alternative to thermal processing and is used to preserve food. Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterium which grows at low temperature, is able to multiply under vacuum, and is responsible for food poisoning. Pressures of 100, 200, 300 and 400 MPa were used for 5, 10 and 15 min at 20 degrees C on pure culture, and on apple and plum jam baby food artificially contaminated with Listeria. Pure culture was also to test pressures of 200, 300, 350 and 400 MPa at 5 degrees C for 30 min. The results were analysed statistically and showed that there were no significant differences between pressures of 100 and 200 MPa at 5, 10 and 15 min. However, at 300 MPa, there were significant differences at 15 min. When the pressure treatment was 400 MPa, significant differences were observed at pressure times of 5, 10 and 15 min. The results were fitted to a linear curve. In pure culture, no viable cells were detected after high pressure treatment of 350 MPa for 30 min at 5 degrees C. The use of low temperature helps to maintain the sensory properties of the product. 相似文献

AIMS: To investigate the response of Campylobacter jejuni ATCC 35919 and 35921 to high pressure processing (HPP) while suspended in microbiological media and various food systems. METHODS AND RESULTS: Campylobacter jejuni 35919 and 35921 were subjected to 10-min pressure treatments between 100 and 400 MPa at 25 degrees C suspended in Bolton broth, phosphate buffer (0.2 m, pH 7.3), ultra-high temperature (UHT) whole milk, UHT skim milk, soya milk and chicken pureé. The survivability of C. jejuni was further investigated by inoculated pack studies. HPP at 300-325 MPa for 10 min at 25 degrees C was sufficient to reduce viable numbers of both strains to below detectable levels when cells were pressurized in Bolton broth or phosphate buffer. All food products examined offered a protective effect in that an additional 50-75 MPa was required to achieve similar levels of inactivation when compared with broth and buffer. Inoculated pack studies showed that the survivability of C. jejuni following pressurization improved with decreasing post-treatment storage temperature.

Five experiments evaluated the effects of processing, freezing and thawing techniques on post-thaw motility of equine sperm. Post-thaw motility was similar for sperm frozen using two cooling rates. Inclusion of 4% glycerol extender was superior to 2 or 6%. Thawing in 75 degrees C water for 7 sec was superior to thawing in 37 degrees C water for 30 sec. The best procedure for concentrating sperm, based on sperm motility, was diluting semen to 50 x 10(6) sperm/ml with a citrate-based centrifugation medium at 20 degrees C and centrifuging at 400 x g for 15 min. There was no difference in sperm motility between semen cooled slowly in extender with or without glycerol to 5 degrees C prior to freezing to -120 degrees C and semen cooled continuously from 20 degrees C to -120 degrees C. From these experiments, a new procedure for processing, freezing and thawing semen evolved. The new procedure involved dilution of semen to 50 x 10(6) sperm/ml in centrifugation medium and centrifugation at 400 x g for 15 min, resuspension of sperm in lactose-EDTA-egg yolk extender containing 4% glycerol, packaging in 0.5-ml polyvinyl chloride straws, freezing at 10 degrees C/min from 20 degrees C to -15 degrees C and 25 degrees C/min from -15 degrees C to -120 degrees C, storage at -196 degrees C, and thawing at 75 degrees C for 7 sec. Post-thaw motility of sperm averaged 34% for the new method as compared to 22% for the old method (P<0.01). 相似文献

The inactivation of bacterial endospores by hydrostatic pressure requires the combined application of heat and pressure. We have determined the resistance of spores of 14 food isolates and 5 laboratory strains of Bacillus subtilis, B. amyloliquefaciens, and B. licheniformis to treatments with pressure and temperature (200 to 800 MPa and 60 to 80 degrees C) in mashed carrots. A large variation in the pressure resistance of spores was observed, and their reduction by treatments with 800 MPa and 70 degrees C for 4 min ranged from more than 6 log units to no reduction. The sporulation conditions further influenced their pressure resistance. The loss of dipicolinic acid (DPA) from spores that varied in their pressure resistance was determined, and spore sublethal injury was assessed by determination of the detection times for individual spores. Treatment of spores with pressure and temperature resulted in DPA-free, phase-bright spores. These spores were sensitive to moderate heat and exhibited strongly increased detection times as judged by the time required for single spores to grow to visible turbidity of the growth medium. The role of DPA in heat and pressure resistance was further substantiated by the use of the DPA-deficient mutant strain B. subtilis CIP 76.26. Taken together, these results indicate that inactivation of spores by combined pressure and temperature processing is achieved by a two-stage mechanism that does not involve germination. At a pressure between 600 and 800 MPa and a temperature greater than 60 degrees C, DPA is released predominantly by a physicochemical rather than a physiological process, and the DPA-free spores are inactivated by moderate heat independent of the pressure level. Relevant target organisms for pressure and temperature treatment of foods are proposed, namely, strains of B. amyloliquefaciens, which form highly pressure-resistant spores. 相似文献

Enterobacter sakazakii may be related to outbreaks of meningitis, septicemia, and necrotizing enterocolitis, mainly in neonates. To reduce the risk of E. sakazakii in baby foods, thermal characteristics for Korean E. sakazakii isolates were determined at 52, 56, and 60 degrees C in saline solution, rehydrated powdered infant formula, and dried baby food. In saline solution, their D-values were 12-16, 3-5, and 0.9-1 min for each temperature. D-values increased to 16-20, 4-5, and 2-4 min in rehydrated infant formula and 14-17, 5-6, and 2-3 min in dried baby food. The overall calculated z-value was 6-8 for saline, 8-10 for powdered infant formula, and 9-11 for dried baby food. Thermal inactivation of E. sakazakii during rehydration of powdered infant formula was investigated by viable counts. Inactivation of cultured E. sakazakii in infant formula milk did not occur for 20 min at room temperature after rehydration with the water at 50 degrees C and their counts were reduced by about 1-2 log CFU/g at 60 degrees C and 4-6 log CFU/ml with the water at 65 and 70 degrees C. However, the thermostability of adapted E. sakazakii to the powdered infant formula increased more than two times. Considering that the levels of E. sakazakii observed in powdered infant formula have generally been 1 CFU/100 g of dry formula or less, contamination with E. sakazakii can be reduced or eliminated by rehydrating water with at least 10 degrees C higher temperature than the manufacturer-recommended 50 degrees C. 相似文献

High‐pressure, high‐temperature (HPHT) processing is effective for microbial spore inactivation using mild preheating, followed by rapid volumetric compression heating and cooling on pressure release, enabling much shorter processing times than conventional thermal processing for many food products. A computational thermal fluid dynamic (CTFD) model has been developed to model all processing steps, including the vertical pressure vessel, an internal polymeric carrier, and food packages in an axis‐symmetric geometry. Heat transfer and fluid dynamic equations were coupled to four selected kinetic models for the inactivation of C. botulinum; the traditional first‐order kinetic model, the Weibull model, an nth‐order model, and a combined discrete log‐linear nth‐order model. The models were solved to compare the resulting microbial inactivation distributions. The initial temperature of the system was set to 90°C and pressure was selected at 600 MPa, holding for 220 s, with a target temperature of 121°C. A representation of the extent of microbial inactivation throughout all processing steps was obtained for each microbial model. Comparison of the models showed that the conventional thermal processing kinetics (not accounting for pressure) required shorter holding times to achieve a 12D reduction of C. botulinum spores than the other models. The temperature distribution inside the vessel resulted in a more uniform inactivation distribution when using a Weibull or an nth‐order kinetics model than when using log‐linear kinetics. The CTFD platform could illustrate the inactivation extent and uniformity provided by the microbial models. The platform is expected to be useful to evaluate models fitted into new C. botulinum inactivation data at varying conditions of pressure and temperature, as an aid for regulatory filing of the technology as well as in process and equipment design. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.
