The recent finding that the formation of staphylococcal enterotoxins in food is very different
from that in cultures of pure Staphylococcus aureus sheds new light on, and brings into …

Staphylococcus aureus is a gram-positive bacterium, commonly found in the nostrils, on the
skin and on the hair of warm-blooded animals, including humans. It can produce a wide …

Predictive microbiology in foods is a research area within food microbiology intended to
provide mathematical models to predict microbial behavior in food environments. Although …

The microbial behaviour of five enterotoxigenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus was
studied in the growth/no growth domain. A polynomial logistic regression equation was fitted …

Staphylococcus aureus growth and its enterotoxin production in sterilized milk were
modeled with a modification of a new logistic model recently developed by us. The modified …

Competition between background microflora and microbial pathogens raises questions
about the application of predictive microbiology in situ, ie, in non-sterile naturally …

In the present study, the spoilage flora of a sliced cooked cured meat product was studied to
determine the specific spoilage organism (SSO). The physicochemical changes of the …

Recently, there has been a consumer push for natural and organic food products. This has
caused alternative poultry production, such as organic, pasture, and free-range systems, to …

Turbidity methods offer possibilities for generating data required for addressing
microorganism variability in risk modeling given that the results of these methods …
