Evaluation of a clostridium perfingers predictive model, developed under isothermal conditions in Broth, to predict growth in ground beef during cooling
Article Abstract:
The U.S. department of agriculture (USDA) food safety and inspection (FSIS) offers two options for the cooling of meat products: follow a standard time-temperature schedule or validate that alternate cooling regimens result in no more than a 1-log(sub 10) CFU/g increase in C. perfringers and no growth of clostridium botolinum. The results presented show generally good agreement with published data on the growth of C. perfringers in similar products.

Development of a microbial model for the combined effect of temperature and pH on spoilage of ground meat, and validation of the model under dynamic temperature conditions
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted on monitoring the changes in microbial flora and sensory characteristics of fresh ground meat with pH values ranging from 5.34 to 6.13, at different isothermal storage temperatures under aerobic conditions. It was observed that a 'ready-to-use' well-validated model was provided for predicting spoilage of aerobically stored ground meat.
