Modeling Salmonella Typhimurium Inactivation in Dry-Fermented Sausages: Previous Habituation in the Food Matrix Undermines UV-C Decontamination Efficacy.

The effects of previous Salmonella Typhimurium habituation to an Italian-style salami concerning pathogen resistance against ultraviolet-C light (UV-C) treatment were modeled in order to establish treatment feasibility for the decontamination of dry-fermented sausage. S. Typhimurium following 24 h habituation in fermented sausage (habituated cells) or non-habituation (non-habituated cells) were exposed to increasing UV-C radiation treatment times. The Weibull model was the best fit for describing S. Typhimurium UV-C inactivation. Heterogeneity in UV-C treatment susceptibilities within the S. Typhimurium population was observed, revealing intrinsic persistence in a sub-population. UV-C radiation up to 1.50 J/cm2 was a feasible treatment for dry-fermented sausage decontamination, as the matrices retained instrumental color and lipid oxidation physiochemical characteristics. However, habituation in the sausage matrix led to a 14-fold increase in the UV-C dose required to achieve the first logarithm reduction (δ value) in S. Typhimurium population. The results indicate that, although UV-C radiation might be considered an efficient method for dry-fermented sausage decontamination, effective doses should be reconsidered in order to reach desirable food safety parameters while preserving matrix quality.

ATCC (tool)

RRID:SCR_001672

Global nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that provides biological products, technical services and educational programs to private industry, government and academic organizations. Its mission is to acquire, authenticate, preserve, develop and distribute biological materials, information, technology, intellectual property and standards for the advancement and application of scientific knowledge. The primary purpose of ATCC is to use its resources and experience as a BRC to become the world leader in standard biological reference materials management, intellectual property resource management and translational research as applied to biomaterial development, standardization and certification. ATCC characterizes cell lines, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, as well as develops and evaluates assays and techniques for validating research resources and preserving and distributing biological materials to the public and private sector research communities.
