Demonstration of Escherichia coli Inactivation in Sterile Physiological Saline under High Pressure (HP) Phase Transition Conditions and Analysis of Probable Contribution of HP Metastable Positions Using Model Solutions and Apple Juice
It was demonstrated that the inactivation of high pressure (HP) treatment on Escherichia coli survival in sterile physiological saline (SPS) was influenced by the treatment conditions: unfrozen, frozen-thawed and fully frozen (phase transition). In order to probe the enhanced phase transition microb...

Sumario: | It was demonstrated that the inactivation of high pressure (HP) treatment on Escherichia coli survival in sterile physiological saline (SPS) was influenced by the treatment conditions: unfrozen, frozen-thawed and fully frozen (phase transition). In order to probe the enhanced phase transition microbial destruction, vibration effects of phase transition position were created and discussed. Test samples were placed in HP chamber for treatment (150/240/330 MPa, no holding time) at room temperature and a special cooling device was used to maintain the phase transition conditions. Results showed that the phase transition from ice I to ice III of frozen SPS could be realized based on the cooling of a 20% sodium chloride solution. HP treatment under fully frozen conditions produced the best lethal effect compared to unfrozen and freeze-thaw samples. Vibration tests were carried out by using model solutions and apple juice to explore the behavior of phase transition. A synchronous and advance phase transition of internal apple juice was realized, respectively, by using pure water and 5% sodium chloride solution as external vibration sources, and the advance phase transitions of external pure water were realized by using 5% sodium chloride solution and 5% glucose solution as internal vibration sources. |
