Question
According to the above profile, what is the D102 value? If the Z value of this organism is 2degree C, what are the D100 and D106 values? According to the above profile, how much time would be required to sterilize a broth culture containing 106 cells in the lab at 104degree C? Raw milk contains a bacterial population of 2 Times 106 cells/mL. If the D72 value of these bacteria is 7. 5 seconds, how many bacteria would remain after a HTST pasteurization? How much time would be required at 65degree C to obtain the same inactivation factor obtained in the previous question if the Z value of this bacteria at 7degree C?
