Book The Correlation Between Tolerance to Low Water Activity and High Hydrostatic Pressure in Shiga Toxin Producing Escherichia Coli

Download or read book The Correlation Between Tolerance to Low Water Activity and High Hydrostatic Pressure in Shiga Toxin Producing Escherichia Coli written by Fahad Bazaid and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High hydrostatic pressure processing (HHP) is extensively applied for the non-thermal pasteurization of foods. One notable feature of HHP mediated inactivation of microbes is the large variation in lethality between strains and the influence of the food matrix. In the following it was hypothesized that the barotolerance of Shiga Toxin producing Escherichia coli could be correlated to tolerance to low water activity environments. The study evaluated the barotolerance of members of the Top 6 STEC serotypes and found variation with O26: H11 and O45: H2 exhibiting higher tolerance to pressure compared to the other bacterial types tested. A negative correlation was found between resistance to high pressure and the NaCl concentration under which E. coli could grow under. For example, E. coli O26: H11 exhibited the highest tolerance to pressure, within 300 MPa, but could only grow under NaCl up to 2.4% w/v. In contrast, E. coli O121: H19 was sensitive to pressure, but could grow in the presence of 6% NaCl. The results suggested that the induction of the stress-response was the likely reason for high barotolerance in salt sensitive strains vs resistant. It was also found that supplementing the suspension medium with amino acids, sugar alcohols and starch could increase the barotolerance of E. coli. Although it is possible that the solutes acted directly as osmolytes it is also proposed that metabolic products and other indirect protective mechanisms were also operating. The study suggests that early induction of the osmotic stress response can be used to predict the resistance to high hydrostatic pressure.

Book Effect of High Hydrostatic Pressure Processing  HHPP  on Escherichia Coli O157 H7 Contaminated Ground

Download or read book Effect of High Hydrostatic Pressure Processing HHPP on Escherichia Coli O157 H7 Contaminated Ground written by Yijing Zhou and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Escherichia coli O157:H7 contaminated ground beef has been linked to major food recalls in recent years, creating the need for improved processing methods. High hydrostatic pressure processing (HHPP) is a reliable non-thermal processing method used to process foods such as oysters, meats, and juices to improve microbiological safety while retaining quality and organoleptic properties. The application of HHPP with pressure cycling to boost the effectiveness of pressure to inactivate E. coli O157:H7 in ground beef was the focus of this research. The effect of the combination of pressure (300-600 MPa), holding time (6-60 min) and temperature (7-45 °C) on inactivating E. coli JM109 and E. coli O157:H7 (ATCC 43895) in ground beef was investigated. Change in the color of ground beef was also determined. Compared to holding time, pressure and temperature had a significant effect on the color of ground beef. Experiments were conducted using single strains and a 6-strain cocktail from 25 °C to 45 °C, at 400 MPa and at pre-determined pressure cycles totaling a holding time of 15 minutes. The reduction for E. coli O157:H7 population increased from 3 to 5 logs as the number of cycles was increased from 1 to 5. The fate of surviving cells, post-processing and during frozen storage, was also determined by plating on selective and non-selective media. It was found that HHPP caused substantial sub-lethal injury leading to further inactivation during frozen storage. The effect of HHPP on the color of ground beef was investigated. Process temperature, as compared to pressure or time, has the most impact on the color change immediately after processing. Higher process temperature (45 °C) resulted in an undesirable color change. Refrigerated or frozen storage had minimal impact on the color of HHPP ground beef. These results suggest that HHPP has the potential to decrease levels significantly or eliminate E. coli O157:H7 from ground beef; especially when pressure cycling is applied. A 5 log reduction in E. coli O157:H7 in ground beef was achieved at 400 MPa at 25 °C with 5 pressure cycles with total time at high pressure of 15 min. Frozen storage at -20 °C had an additional negative effect on survival of E. coli O157:H7.

Book Heat and Pressure Resistance of Escherichia Coli and Its Inactivation in the Presence of Antimicrobial Compounds

Download or read book Heat and Pressure Resistance of Escherichia Coli and Its Inactivation in the Presence of Antimicrobial Compounds written by Yang Liu and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Verotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC) are pathogens causing severe foodborne disease. E. coli AW1.7 is a heat resistant beef carcass isolate that may be used as a surrogate organism to study the survival of VTEC on food. This dissertation examines the heat and pressure resistance of E. coli and the application of antimicrobial compounds to achieve its inactivation in food. The pressure resistance of E. coli AW1.7 was compared to the resistance of other foodborne pathogens and spoilage organisms relevant in meat. E. coli AW1.7 was the most pressure resistant organism tested. Moreover, the ability of E. coli AW1.7 to resist pressure was comparable to the pressure-resistant mutant E. coli LMM1030. To further study the heat- and pressure resistance of E. coli, E. coli AW1.7 was compared to the heat- and pressure resistance of VTEC strains from different serotypes and phylotypes. E. coli AW1.7 exhibited a higher heat resistance than VTEC strains; however, some VTEC strains also survived in hamburgers grilled to a core temperature of 71°C. Several strains of VTEC exhibited a higher resistance to pressure than E. coli AW1.7. Over one third of tested strains showed 3 log CFU/g or less cell count reduction under high pressure treatment of 600 MPa for 3 min. Therefore, additional treatment processes are required for elimination of VTEC in pressure treated food. Additional treatments were evaluated to achieve the elimination of E. coli in buffers and food matrices. Chitosan was effective in injury E. coli in imidazole and potassium phosphate buffer; chitosan, nisin and lactate combination were effective in yogurt serum; chitosan, nisin and heat were effective in apple juice; and chitosan, Micocin® X and heat had small bactericidal effects in ground beef. A combination of chitosan and high pressure was not effective against E. coli AW1.7 in potassium phosphate buffer, but addition of Micocin® X to increased killing of E. coli AW1.7. In conclusion, this thesis demonstrated that high pressure alone is insufficient to kill E. coli in meat. Bacteriocins, lactate, and chitosan can be applied as additional antimicrobial treatments to kill E. coli in food. And the bactericidal effect is strongly dependent on the food matrix and the preservation method. Some of the VTEC strains tested survived heat treatment and high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) permitted recommendations of E. coli by Canadian regulatory agencies (Health Canada and Canadian Food Inspection Agency). More studies need to be conducted to validate the results.

Book Ultra High Pressure Treatment of Foods

Download or read book Ultra High Pressure Treatment of Foods written by Marc E.G. Hendrickx and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade, consumer demand for convenient, fresh-like, safe, high-quality food products has grown. The food industry has responded by applying a number of new technologies including high hydrostatic pressure for food processing and preservation. In addition, food scientists have demonstrated the feasibility of industrial-scale high pressure processing. This technology is of specific interest to the food industry because it provides an attractive alternative to conventional methods of thermal processing, which often produce undesirable changes in foods and hamper the balance between high quality (color, flavor, and functionality) and safety. In addition, it offers opportunities for creating new ingredients and products because of the specific actions of high pressure on bio logical materials and food constituents. It allows food scientists to redesign exist ing processes and to create entirely new ones using high pressure technology alone or in combination with conventional processes (e. g. , pressure-temperature combinations ). Researchers have investigated high pressure processing for the past century. Scientists such as Hite and Bridgman did pioneering work at the turn of the 20th century. Then during the 1980s and 1990s, there was a large effort to investigate the effects of high pressure on biological materials, particularly foods. The initial research activities in the late 1980s and early 1990s focused on exploratory activ ities in the food area.
