title: Measurements and predictions of growth for Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella during fluctuating temperature II. Rapidly changing temperatures.
abstract: Growth of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella was examined during various rates of increase and decrease in temperature from and to the minimum for growth. Growth was little affected by even the most rapid changes and injury or lag was not observed. Subsequent investigations of growth during periods of rapid variation in temperature from and to temperatures below the growth minimum again had little effect and growth was satisfactorily predicted using the dynamic model of Baranyi and Roberts [Int. J. Food Microbiol. 23 (1994) 277] in conjunction with the data of Food Micromodel.
