Research – Modeling the Growth of Six Listeria monocytogenes Strains in Smoked Salmon Pâté
Abstract
In this study, the growth of six L. monocytogenes strains isolated from different fish products was quantified and modeled in smoked salmon pâté at a temperature ranging from 2 to 20 °C. The experimental data obtained for each strain was fitted to the primary growth model of Baranyi and Roberts to estimate the following kinetic parameters: lag phase (λ), maximum specific growth rate (μmax), and maximum cell density (Nmax). Then, the effect of storage temperature on the obtained μmax values was modeled by the Ratkowsky secondary model. In general, the six L. monocytogenes strains showed rapid growth in salmon pâté at all storage temperatures, with a relatively short lag phase λ, even at 2 °C. The growth behavior among the tested strains was similar at the same storage temperature, although significant differences were found for the parameters λ and μmax. Besides, the growth variations among the strains did not follow a regular pattern. The estimated secondary model parameter Tmin ranged from −4.25 to −3.19 °C. This study provides accurate predictive models for the growth of L. monocytogenes in fish pâtés that can be used in shelf life and microbial risk assessment studies. In addition, the models generated in this work can be implemented in predictive modeling tools and repositories that can be reliably and easily used by the fish industry and end-users to establish measures aimed at controlling the growth of L. monocytogenes in fish-based pâtés.
Research – In-Package Atmospheric Cold Plasma Treatment and Storage Effects on Membrane Integrity, Oxidative Stress, and Esterase Activity of Listeria monocytogenes
Abstract
Atmospheric cold plasma (ACP) treatment can reduce bacterial pathogens in foods. Additional reduction in bacterial cells during storage after ACP treatment was previously reported. The underlying mechanisms of bacterial inactivation during ACP treatment and post-treatment storage need to be understood. This study investigated the changes in the morpho-physiological status of Listeria monocytogenes on ham surfaces after post-ACP-treatment storage of 1 h, 24 h, and 7 days at 4 °C. The membrane integrity, intracellular oxidative stress, and esterase activity of L. monocytogenes were evaluated by flow cytometry. L. monocytogenes cells were under high oxidative stress conditions with slightly permeabilized membranes after 1 h of post-ACP-treatment storage according to the flow cytometry data. During the extended storage of 24 h, the percentage of cells with a slightly permeabilized membrane increased; subsequently, the percentage of cells with intact membranes decreased. The percentage of L. monocytogenes cells with intact membranes decreased to <5% with a treatment time of 10 min and after 7 days of post-treatment storage. In addition, the percentage of L. monocytogenes cells under oxidation stress decreased to <1%, whereas the percentage of cells with completely permeabilized membranes increased to more than 90% for samples treated with ACP for 10 min and 7 days of post-treatment storage. With increased ACP treatment time, for 1 h stored samples, the percentage of cells with active esterase and slightly permeabilized membranes increased. However, during the extended post-treatment storage of 7 days, the percentage of cells with active esterase and slightly permeabilized membranes decreased to below 1%. At the same time, the percentage of cells with permeabilized membrane increased to more than 92% with an increase in ACP treatment time of 10 min. In conclusion, the higher inactivation after 24 h and 7 days post-ACP-treatment storage compared to 1 h stored samples correlated with the loss of esterase activity and membrane integrity of L. monocytogenes cells.

Research – Catalan Food Safety Agency – Quality criteria for drinking water used in the food industry
On January 12, 2023 , Royal Decree 3/2023 came into force, establishing the technical-sanitary criteria for the quality of drinking water , its control and supply .
This new Royal Decree represents a new, broad and complex regulatory framework to protect human health from any contamination of drinking water. Establishes the technical-sanitary criteria and the quality control of drinking water throughout the supply chain, from catchment water bodies to the user’s tap, with the aim of guaranteeing that drinking water is healthy and clean.
It also specifically establishes the quality criteria for drinking water used in the food industry (CHAPTER VI Water quality in the food company) :
- It establishes the quality criteria, as well as the parameters and parametric values of the water used for the manufacture, preparation or treatment of food, as well as for washing materials intended for contact with food.
- The food company will be responsible for the quality of the water from the point of delivery to the connection or in the case of supply in tanks or mobile tanks, of all the phases that it carries out and that, as such, are described in the self-control systems based on in the principles of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP).
- The operator of the food company must ensure the quality of the drinking water used, through a sampling plan, different types of analysis and controls, which will be included in their self-control systems based on the HACCP principles.
This regulation partially transposes Directive (EU) 2020/2184 in Spain , relating to the quality of water intended for human consumption and repeals Royal Decree 140/2003, which establishes the sanitary criteria for the quality of drinking water .
