Bactericidal efficacy of a quaternary ammonium compound with food additive grade calcium hydroxide toward Salmonella Infantis and Escherichia coli on abiotic carriers
The bactericidal efficacies of 0.2% food additive grade calcium hydroxide (FdCa(OH)(2)) solution, a quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) diluted at 1:500 (QACx500) and their mixture−Mix500 (FdCa(OH)(2) powder added at final concentration 0.2% to QACx500)−were investigated at two different temperatures...

Sumario: | The bactericidal efficacies of 0.2% food additive grade calcium hydroxide (FdCa(OH)(2)) solution, a quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) diluted at 1:500 (QACx500) and their mixture−Mix500 (FdCa(OH)(2) powder added at final concentration 0.2% to QACx500)−were investigated at two different temperatures (room temperature (RT) (25 ± 2°C) and 2°C), using varying contact time, with or without presence of organic materials (5% fetal bovine serum: FBS), either in suspension or on abiotic carrier (steel, rubber and plastic). In the suspension test, QACx500 could inactivate Salmonella Infantis at effective level (≥3 log reductions), within 30 sec and 5 sec, respectively, with or without 5% FBS at RT; however, at 2°C it required 30 min and 1 min, respectively. Mix500 revealed the same efficacy as QACx500 at RT, but, at 2°C it required 1 min and 30 sec, respectively with or without FBS. Whereas, 0.2% FdCa(OH)(2) solution alone could inactivate S. Infantis within 1 min and 3 min, respectively at RT and 2°C, even with 5% FBS. In the carrier test, single disinfectant required bit more (3 or 5 min) contact time to reduce bacterial load (S. Infantis or Escherichia coli) down to the effective level on rubber surface than that on steel and plastic surface. However, Mix500 could inactivate both bacteria on carrier surfaces within 1 min, even at 2°C. Thus, synergistic effects were observed in the suspension test and the carrier test at both temperatures toward both bacteria. |
