Unexpected thermal destruction of dried, glass bead-immobilized microorganisms as a function of water activity
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on water microorganisms. The authors have investigated the death of these microorganisms and their temperature resistance in low water activity environment by drying the microorganisms on the glass bead surface before being subjected to high temperatures and cooling for a short period of time, and they report the results.
