Deciphering the growth responses and genotypic diversity of bioluminescent Photobacterium phosphoreum on chicken meat during aerobic refrigerated storage. Int J Food Microbiol 2023; 405:110334. [PMID: 37517119 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2023.110334] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023]
Abstract
The advent of high-throughput sequencing technologies in recent years has revealed the unexpected presence of genus Photobacterium within the chicken meat spoilage ecosystem. This study was undertaken to decipher the occurrence, the growth patterns and the genotypic biodiversity of Photobacterium phosphoreum on chicken breast fillets stored aerobically at 4 °C through conventional microbiological methods and molecular techniques. Samples were periodically cultured on marine broth agar (MA; supplemented with meat extract and vancomycin) for the enumeration of presumptive bioluminescent Photobacterium spp. In total, 90 bioluminescent bacteria were recovered from the initial (time of first appearance), middle and end stages of storage. Concomitantly, 95 total psychrotrophic/psychrophilic bacteria were isolated from the same medium to assess the presence and diversity of non-luminous photobacteria. Genetic diversity between bioluminescent isolates was assessed with two PCR-based DNA fingerprinting methods, i.e. RAPD and rep-PCR. Moreover, the characterization of selected bacterial isolates at the genus and/or species level was performed by sequencing of the 16S rRNA and/or gyrB gene. Bioluminescent bacteria were scarcely encountered in fresh samples at population levels of ca. 2.0 log CFU/g, whilst total psychrotrophic/psychrophilic bacteria were found at levels of ca. 4.4 log CFU/g. As time proceeded and close to shelf-life end, bioluminescent bacteria were encountered at higher populations, and were found at levels of 5.3 and 7.0 log CFU/g in samples from the second and third batch, respectively. In the first batch their presence was occasional and at levels up to 3.9 log CFU/g. Accordingly, total psychrotrophic/psychrophilic bacteria exceeded 8.4 log CFU/g at the end of storage, suggesting the possible underestimation of bioluminescent populations following the specific cultivation conditions. Sequence analysis assigned bioluminescent isolates to Photobacterium phosphoreum, while genetic fingerprinting revealed high intra-species variability. Respectively, total psychrotrophs/psychrophiles were assigned to genera Pseudomonas, Shewanella, Psychrobacter, Acinetobacter, Vibrio and Photobacterium. Non-luminous photobacteria were not identified within the psychrotrophs/psychrophiles. Results of the present study reveal the intra- and inter-batch variability on the occurrence and growth responses of P. phosphoreum and highlight its potential role in the chicken meat spoilage consortium.

Abstract
The maximum growth rate (μmax) of Bacillus cereus was estimated using a non-destructive isothermal calorimetric method, and a growth prediction model was constructed based on the measurement results. SCD medium and mashed potato were inoculated with serial-diluted inoculum of B. cereus. Heat generation curves were determined using an isothermal calorimeter at 35, 25, and 15℃. The μmax was determined from the relationship between the increase in B. cereus cell number and incubation time, which was detected through the heat generation of the B. cereus biological process. Moreover, the growth prediction model was constructed using Ratkowsky's square-root model. The results of the growth prediction model based on the data of the calorimetric and conventional culture methods for SCD were expressed as √μCalmax=0.0354 (T-4.9)[R2=0.99] and √μCCMmax=0.0335 (T-5.0)[R2=0.99]; a similar equation was provided by both methods. Conversely, the results of the growth prediction model based on the calorimetric method data for mashed potato were given as √μCalmax=0.0390 (T-8.5)[R2=0.99]; the maximum growth rates at 30 and 20℃ were predicted as 0.70 and 0.20 (1/hr), respectively. The maximum growth rates obtained using the conventional culture method were 0.63 and 0.29 (1/hr), respectively, similar to the calorimetric method results. The predictive microbiological analysis using the calorimetric method enabled the rapid provision of a growth prediction equation, and the number of samples could be substantially reduced compared with that for the conventional culture method.

Abstract
The aim of this work is to study the effect of temperature fluctuations on spoilage microbial flora behaviour of a semi-preserved seafood product in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) as well as to find correct interpretation criteria for simulating temperature fluctuations during storage tests. The study concerned 54 packages of "Octopus carpaccio" that were grouped in three batches and stored at 3 different temperature profiles: the first (16 packages - Group 4°C) was stored at 4±0.5°C; the second (16 packages - Group 8°C) was stored at 8±0.5°C; the third (16 packages - Group F) was stored under a fluctuating temperature regime between 2°C and 14°C. Spoilage microflora, pH and AW has been monitored, at regular intervals, along the storage period (44 days). A predictive model was constructed according to the accredited scientific literature and validated against the observed growth curves of the above three groups. Afterwards, the predictive model has been used setting the temperature at the mean value of fluctuations (6.72°C), at the kinetic mean value of fluctuations (7.80°C) and at the 75th percentile value of fluctuations (11.14°C). The best fitting to the observed data was obtained with the kinetic mean temperature value and this result shows that this parameter can be proposed to reproduce the temperature fluctuation along the distribution and the domestic storage when a storage test has to be carried out.

Abstract
Three data sets concerning the behaviour of spoilage flora of fillets treated with natural preservative substances (NPS) were used to construct a new kind of mathematical predictive model. This model, unlike other ones, allows expressing the antibacterial effect of the NPS separately from the prediction of the growth rate. This approach, based on the introduction of a parameter into the predictive primary model, produced a good fitting of observed data and allowed characterising quantitatively the increase of shelf-life of fillets.

Abstract
This study was about the quality changes ofPangasiusfillets during storage under simulated temperature conditions of downstream cold chain. Sensory, chemical, and microbiological analyses were conducted over storage time and bacterial growth was modelled. Sensory quality index (QI), at five stable (1, 4, 9, 15, and 19 ± 1°C) and three dynamic temperatures, progressed faster at higher temperatures, especially with sooner temperature abuses. Total volatile basic nitrogen remained under the acceptable limit throughout all the storage conditions. Total viable psychrotrophic counts (TVC) were around 5.68 ± 0.24 log CFU g−1at the beginning and exceeded the limit of 6 log CFU g−1after 216, 96, 36, 16, and 7 h at 1, 4, 9, 15, and 19 ± 1°C, respectively. Meanwhile,Pseudomonascounts started at 3.81 ± 0.53 log CFU g−1and reached 4.60–6.36 log CFU g−1by the time of TVC rejection. Since lower shelf lives were given by TVC rather than QI, it should be appropriate to base the product shelf life on the TVC acceptable limit. Kinetics models based on the Baranyi and Roberts and square root models, developed for TVC andPseudomonasspp., gave acceptable bacterial estimations at dynamic temperatures, with over 80% of observed counts within the acceptable simulation zone, revealing promising model applicability as a supporting tool for cold chain management. However, further improvement and validation of the models are needed.

Abstract
A response surface model of Listeria monocytogenes’ growth rate was built in this study under different temperatures (10 °C, 15 °C, 20 °C, 25 °C and 30 °C) and acid concentrations: citric acid (0–0.4%) and ascorbic acid (0–0.4%); two ingredients which are often used in the food industry as preservatives. Mathematical validation was performed with additional samples at different conditions within the range of the model, obtaining acceptable values of root mean square error (0.0466), standard error of prediction (18.84%), bias factor (1.05) and accuracy factor (1.16). The inhibitory effect on growth was more effective with citric acid than ascorbic acid, possibly due to the major dissociation of citric acid occurring inside microbial cells. The different conditions considered in the model will potentially allow L. monocytogenes’ response to be predicted in foods having a similar composition to the chemical and physical factors set out in this paper.

Abstract
Accumulation of volatile organic compounds was monitored in association with sensory quality, bacterial concentrations and culture-independent microbial community analyses in raw pork loin and pork collar during storage under high-oxygen modified atmosphere at +4 °C. Of the 48 volatile compounds detected in the pork samples, the levels of acetoin, diacetyl and 3-methyl-1-butanol had the highest correlations with the sensory scores and bacterial concentrations. These compounds accumulated in all of the four monitored lots of non-sterile pork but not in the sterilized pork during chilled storage. According to the culture-dependent and culture-independent characterization of bacterial communities, Brochothrix thermosphacta, lactic acid bacteria (Carnobacterium, Lactobacillus, Lactococcus, Leuconostoc, Weissella) and Photobacterium spp. predominated in pork samples. Photobacterium spp., typically not associated with spoilage of meat, were detected also in 8 of the 11 retail packages of pork investigated subsequently. Eleven isolates from the pork samples were shown to belong to Photobacterium phosphoreum by phenotypic tests and sequencing of the 16S rRNA and gyrB gene fragments. Off-odors in pork samples with high proportion of Photobacterium spp. were associated with accumulation of acetoin, diacetyl and 3-methyl-1-butanol in meat, but these compounds did not explain all the off-odors reported in sensory analyses.

Alfaro B, Hernández I, Baliño-Zuazo L, Barranco A. Quality changes of Atlantic horse mackerel fillets (Trachurus trachurus) packed in a modified atmosphere at different storage temperatures. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2013; 93:2179-2187. [PMID: 23401147 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.6025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2012] [Revised: 11/20/2012] [Accepted: 12/03/2012] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Atlantic horse mackerel (Trachurus trachurus) is an important commercial fish in Europe. Changes in microbial growth, sensory quality and chemical evolution of modified atmosphere packed (MAP) horse mackerel fillets (48% CO₂/50% N₂/2% O₂) were monitored at different storage temperatures (2, 4, 6 and 10 °C). RESULTS The observed sensory shelf life of MAP fish fillets was found to be approximately 7 days at 2 °C, 6 days at 4 °C, 5 at 6 °C and 3 days at 10 °C. A significant correlation was observed between all sensory attributes and two groups of bacteria [total viable count (TVC) and psychrotrophic bacteria], with sensorial rejection when the bacteria approached 10⁶ CFU g⁻¹ at 4, 6 and 10 °C. A level of 30-50 mg total volatile basic nitrogen 100 g⁻¹ of mackerel muscle was well correlated with sensory shelf life determination at all temperatures, except for 2 °C. During the storage time, lipid oxidation did not increase at any temperature and could not be related to quality decay. The presence of acetaldehyde and butyraldehyde in the packing atmosphere was only found in fillets stored at the highest temperature studied (10 °C). CONCLUSION In this study, key quality parameters were established to monitor the spoilage and shelf life of MAP Trachurus trachurus stored at different temperatures. In addition, these results confirm the use of modified atmosphere packaging as a mild preservation method for fillets of Atlantic horse mackerel.

Abstract
A novel botanic biopreservative was successfully prepared by the combination of the bamboo leaves extracts and ebony extracts, designated as ebony-bamboo leaves complex extracts (EBLCE), whose antimicrobial activity was assessed according to an inhibition zone method against 10 common pathogenic and spoilage microorganisms. It was found that EBLCE was more effective from all the chosen microorganisms, as compared by potassium sorbate. Due to its excellent antimicrobial activity, and some additional properties like edibility, safety and economy, EBLCE was selected for further study to evaluate the efficacy in prolonging shelf life and improving the quality of peeled Penaeus vannamei during storage at 4 °C, based on periodical microbiological, chemical and sensory analysis. As a result, EBLCE was observed to prevent spoilage of peeled P. vannamei efficiently as reflected by a distinct decrease in total viable count, pH and total volatile basic nitrogen, as well as a slower decline in the sensory evaluation scores. Therefore, a prolonged shelf life of 16 days was obtained for EBLCE pre-treated peeled shrimps with comparison of 6 days for the control group, demonstrating EBLCE as a promising alternative for preserving food.

Abstract
AIMS The objectives of the study were to evaluate the effect of selected antimicrobial agents on the shelf life of osmotically pretreated gilthead seabream and to establish reliable kinetic equations for shelf-life determination validated in dynamic conditions. METHODS AND RESULTS Fresh gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) fillets were osmotically treated with 50% high dextrose equivalent maltodextrin (HDM, DE 47) plus 5% NaCl and 0·5% carvacrol, 0·5% glucono-δ-lactone or 1% Citrox (commercial antimicrobial mix). Untreated and treated slices were aerobically packed and stored isothermally (0-15°C). Microbial growth and quality-related chemical indices were modelled as functions of temperature. Models were validated at dynamic storage conditions. Osmotic pretreatment with the use of antimicrobials led to significant shelf-life extension of fillets, in terms of microbial growth and organoleptic deterioration. CONCLUSIONS The shelf life was 7 days for control samples at 5°C. The osmotic pretreatment with carvacrol, glucono-δ-lactone and Citrox allowed for shelf-life extension by 8, 10 and 5 days at 5°C, respectively. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The results of the study show the potential of adding carvacrol, glucono-δ-lactone or Citrox in the osmotic solution to extend the shelf life and improve commercial value of chilled osmotically pretreated fish products. The developed models can be a reliable tool for predicting the shelf life of fresh or minimally processed gilthead seabream fillets in the real chill chain.

Abstract
The objective of the study was the kinetic modeling of the effect of storage temperature on the quality and shelf life of chilled fish, modified atmosphere-packed (MAP), and osmotically pretreated with the addition of nisin as antimicrobial agent. Fresh gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) fillets were osmotically treated with 50% high dextrose equivalent maltodextrin (DE 47) plus 5% NaCl. Water loss, solid gain, salt content, and water activity were monitored throughout treatment and treatment conditions were selected for the shelf life study. Untreated and osmotically pretreated slices with and without nisin (2 x 10(4) IU/100 g osmotic solution), packed in air or modified atmosphere (50% CO(2)-50% air), and stored at controlled isothermal conditions (0, 5, 10, and 15 degrees C) were studied. Quality assessment and modeling were based on growth of several microbial indices, total volatile nitrogen, trimethylamine nitrogen, lipid oxidation (TBARS), and sensory scoring. Temperature dependence of quality loss rates was modeled by the Arrhenius equation, validated under dynamic conditions. Pretreated samples showed improved quality stability during subsequent refrigerated storage, in terms of microbial growth, chemical changes, and organoleptic degradation. Osmotic pretreatment with the addition of nisin in combination with MAP was the most effective treatment resulting in significant shelf life extension of gilthead seabream fillets (48 days compared to 10 days for the control at 0 degrees C).

Abstract
An existing cardinal parameter growth and growth boundary model for Listeria monocytogenes (O. Mejlholm and P. Dalgaard, J. Food Prot. 70:70-84 and 2485-2497, 2007) was expanded with terms for the effects of acetic, benzoic, citric, and sorbic acids to include a total of 12 environmental parameters and their interactive effects. The new model predicted growth rates (micro(max) values) of L. monocytogenes accurately with bias and accuracy factors of 1.0 and 1.5, respectively, for 16 batches of brined shrimp with benzoic, citric, and sorbic acids. Corresponding values of 0.9 and 1.2, respectively, were obtained for five batches of brined shrimp with acetic and lactic acids. Growth and no-growth responses of L. monocytogenes were also appropriately predicted with 88% correct prediction for 26 experiments with brined shrimp. The new model performed better than existing L. monocytogenes models with a comparable degree of complexity. The high number of environmental parameters, including six organic acids (acetic acid, benzoic acid, citric acid, diacetate, lactic acid, and sorbic acid), allows the new model to predict the effect of substituting one set of preserving parameters for another. The new model also allowed the distance between the growth boundary and specific product characteristics to be quantified by a psi value. This can be of practical importance in the development or reformulation of seafood with preserving parameters that prevent growth of L. monocytogenes and take variability in product characteristics into account.

Abstract
Water blanching and the use of additives (potassium sorbate and citric acid) combined with different types of packaging (air, vacuum "VP" and modified atmosphere packaging "MAP": 60% CO(2), 30% N(2) and 10% O(2)), were studied as new methods of preservation of chilled desalted cod. Microbial counts and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) analyses were carried out during a period of 42 days on all samples stored at 4 degrees C. No Aeromonas or sulphite-reducing Clostridium were isolated from any of the analysed samples. The lowest microbial counts of mesophilic, psychrotrophic, Pseudomonas, moulds and yeasts, were found in samples with additives in all kinds of packaging. These samples in VP or MAP maintained an excellent microbial quality throughout the 42 days of storage, with mesophilic and psychrotrophic counts always below 4 log CFU/g. Counts of the four microorganisms above-mentioned in blanched samples packaged with air, exceeded 5 log CFU/g on days 21-28, so it became necessary to use VP or MAP to maintain these microorganisms at an acceptable level for the entire storage period. TVB-N contents were low in samples with additives, regardless of the kind of packaging, as well as in blanched samples packaged in VP and MAP, never reaching 25 mg/100 g. Since there were no significant differences either in microbial growth or in TVB-N between samples in VP and MAP, a sensory analysis was performed only in desalted cod submitted to the two treatments (blanching and additives) combined with VP, both in raw and cooked samples. The results of this analysis showed that the addition of potassium sorbate and citric acid did not alter the typical organoleptic features of desalted cod. The sensory characteristics of both blanched samples and those with additives in VP showed no change during the period of the study.

Abstract
AIMS The indigenous flora of freshly chilled cold-smoked salmon just after the vacuum packaging, and the spoilage flora after storage, in vacuum package at 7 degrees C for 19 days, were to be investigated with two different sampling strategies. METHODS AND RESULTS Identification was performed using 16S rRNA sequencing of both isolated bacteria and bacterial DNA from tissue extract. The indigenous flora of fresh cold-smoked vacuum-packed salmon was dominated by, in order, Brochothrix thermosphacta, Yersinia ruckeri, Photobacterium and Carnobacterium, whereas the spoilage flora of the same product stored at 7 degrees C for 19 days was dominated by Lactobacillus and Photobacterium. The two sampling strategies showed similar results on the fish flora. Several new types of Photobacterium sequences, closely related to Photobacterium iliopiscarium and Photobacterium phosphoreum, were found from both the freshly processed and the stored salmon, indicating that smoked salmon harbours at least three different, as yet unknown, Photobacterium species. CONCLUSIONS Ten per cent of the bacterial flora multiplying on chilled, vacuum-packed, cold-smoked salmon comprised unknown species. The two sampling strategies complement each other. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY As cold-smoked salmon is consumed without heat-treatment, the presence of undefined bacteria in high numbers should be considered in public health assessments.

Influence of storage temperature on microbial spoilage characteristics of haddock fillets (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) evaluated by multivariate quality prediction. Int J Food Microbiol 2006; 111:112-25.

Abstract
The proliferation of specific spoilage organisms (SSO) and quality changes were evaluated in haddock fillets stored in styrofoam boxes at 0, 7 and 15 degrees C and under temperature fluctuations. A rapid electronic nose technique was used to monitor different classes of compounds, representing microbial metabolites that were characteristic for the onset of spoilage odors. Photobacterium phosphoreum predominated among the spoilage bacteria and high levels of TVB-N were observed at sensory rejection. Pseudomonas spp. appeared to be responsible for the development of sweet, fruity spoilage odors in haddock fillets coinciding with increasing response of the electronic nose CO sensor. H(2)S-producing bacteria, most likely Shewanella putrefaciens, were associated with the H(2)S sensor's response at abusive temperature conditions. Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) was used as an explorative tool to provide a better understanding of the spoilage potential of SSOs, by evaluating models based on electronic nose responses and counts of specific spoilage organisms to predict sensory quality (Torry scores). The best prediction of the sensory quality was obtained by PLSR models based on five variables: the electronic nose sensors (CO, NH(3) and H(2)S), pseudomonads counts and a time-temperature variable. Good agreement between the predicted and experimental data indicates that these variables characterize the sensory quality of haddock fillets stored under different temperatures.

Abstract
AIMS The present study was aimed to evaluate the microbiological and sensory characteristics of biopreserved packed fresh plaice (Pleuronectes platessa), during storage. METHODS AND RESULTS Fish samples were treated with a Bifidobacterium bifidum strain and thymol as preservatives, stored at different temperatures (4 and 12 degrees C) and package atmospheres (in air, under vacuum, modified atmosphere). Data about the total viable count (TVC) were used to predict the shelf life of the fish fillets as affected by the preservatives used and the storage conditions. Data obtained revealed that B. bifidum could perform an efficient synergy with thymol, in controlling the hygiene biological markers. Besides, the tested bifidobacterial species, combined with low storage temperature and anoxia/hypoxia, showed a great efficacy against the main fresh packaged fish spoilage species (Pseudomonas spp., Photobacterium phosphoreum). CONCLUSIONS The studied technique could be considered effective in fresh fish spoilage control. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Great interest is developing on food biopreservation, because of the ever increasing needs to protect consumers' and environment's health, and to revalorize some important food characteristics, such as naturalness and authenticity, without leaving the safety aside.

Validated kinetic models of pseudomonads growth of Mediterranean, marine-cultured chilled gilt-head seabream (Sparus aurata) and full knowledge of the response of suitable enzymatic TTI are the basis of the TTI application algorithm. This scheme was evaluated through a controlled field test of exported fish, from harvest to final consumption. Response of TTI attached on different locations of packages was compared to actual temperature recording. Data that could not be obtained during the actual field test, such as microbiological or sensory tests of fish at intermediate points of the chain, were measured in a replicate laboratory study, simulating the handling of products and the real time-temperature profiles of the field test. The conducted field tests showed the applicability and usefulness of TTI monitoring of the fish chill chain, elucidating also the practical difficulties and limitations, that need to be addressed for expanding TTI use as a reliable management tool.

Abstract
Bioluminescence is a common phenotype in marine bacteria, such as Vibrio and Photobacterium species, and can be quorum regulated by N-acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs). We extracted a molecule that induced a bacterial AHL monitor (Agrobacterium tumefaciens NT1 [pZLR4]) from packed cod fillets, which spoil due to growth of Photobacterium phosphoreum. Interestingly, AHLs were produced by 13 nonbioluminescent strains of P. phosphoreum isolated from the product. Of 177 strains of P. phosphoreum (including 18 isolates from this study), none of 74 bioluminescent strains elicited a reaction in the AHL monitor, whereas 48 of 103 nonbioluminescent strains did produce AHLs. AHLs were also detected in Aeromonas spp., but not in Shewanella strains. Thin-layer chromatographic profiles of cod extracts and P. phosphoreum culture supernatants identified a molecule similar in relative mobility (Rf value) and shape to N-(3-hydroxyoctanoyl)homoserine lactone, and the presence of this molecule in culture supernatants from a nonbioluminescent strain of P. phosphoreum was confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography-positive electrospray high-resolution mass spectrometry. Bioluminescence (in a non-AHL-producing strain of P. phosphoreum) was strongly up-regulated during growth, whereas AHL production in a nonbioluminescent strain of P. phosphoreum appeared constitutive. AHLs apparently did not influence bioluminescence, as the addition of neither synthetic AHLs nor supernatants delayed or reduced this phenotype in luminescent strains of P. phosphoreum. The phenotypes of nonbioluminescent P. phosphoreum strains regulated by AHLs remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
In contrast with most chemical hazardous compounds, the concentration of food pathogens changes during processing, storage, and meal preparation, making it difficult to estimate the number of microorganisms or the concentration of their toxins at the moment of ingestion by the consumer. These changes are attributed to microbial proliferation, survival, and/or inactivation and must be considered when exposure to a microbial hazard is assessed. The number of microorganisms can also change as a result of physical removal, mixing of food ingredients, partitioning of a food product, or cross-contamination (M. J. Nauta. 2002. Int. J. Food Microbiol. 73:297-304). Predictive microbiology, i.e., relating these microbial evolutionary patterns to environmental conditions, can therefore be considered a useful tool for microbial risk assessment, especially in the exposure assessment step. During the early development of the field (late 1980s and early 1990s), almost all research was focused on the modeling of microbial growth over time and the influence of temperature on this growth. Later, modeling of the influence of other intrinsic and extrinsic parameters garnered attention. Recently, more attention has been given to modeling of the effects of chemicals on microbial inactivation and survival. This article is an overview of different applied strategies for modeling the effect of chemical compounds on microbial populations. Various approaches for modeling chemical growth inhibition, the growth-no growth interface, and microbial inactivation by chemicals are reviewed.

Abstract
The combined effect of different temperatures (7 to 19 degrees C), pH levels (4.5 to 8.5), sodium chloride levels (0 to 8%), and sodium nitrite levels (0 to 200 ppm) on the predicted growth rate and lag time of Staphylococcus aureus under aerobic and anaerobic conditions was studied. The two predictive models developed, response surface (RS) and the Davey model, provided reliable estimates of the two kinetic parameters studied. The RS provided better predictions of maximum specific growth rate, with bias factors of 1.06 and 1.31 and accuracy factors of 1.17 and 1.37, respectively, in aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The Davey model performed more accurately for lag time, with a bias factor of 1.12 and an accuracy factor of 1.49, for both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Predictive growth models are a valuable tool, enabling swift determination of Staphylococcus aureus growth rate and lag time. These data are essential for ensuring staphylococcus-related quality and safety of food products.
