[Probability of growth initiation of listeria spp in a model broth as affected by species, pH, temperature, sodium chloride, potassium sorbate and storage time]

The effects of NaCL [0.5, 4.0, 7.5%] potassium sorbate [KS, 0.0, 0.15, 0.3%], pH [5.9, 5.3], temperature [T,4,8,20,30 C], time [D, up to 58-68d] and inoculum [10-2107 on the log10 probability percentage [P] of one cell L. monocylogenes, L.innocus, L.ivanoviii to initiate growth in brain heart infusion broth were evaluated in a factorial design study. The P of L monocytogenes was affected significantly [0.0001
