    Int J Food Microbiol 73:291-5. 2002
    ..Transitions of 0.75 or 1.0 h had 20-h lag phases, essentially that of immediate transitions. When the transition was 1.5 h, an intermediate pattern of less than 1 log of growth followed by no additional growth for 20 h occurred...

    A D Hitchins
    Food and Drug Administration Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, Washington, DC, USA
    Food Addit Contam 18:1108-17. 2001
    ..These decisions are the responsibility of risk managers who consider additional factors such as food preferences, technical feasibility and societal values when evaluating regulatory policies...

    R C Whiting
    Microbial Food Safety Research Unit, Agricultural Research Service, US Department of Agriculture Wyndmoor, PA 19038, USA
    Int J Food Microbiol 75:127-33. 2002
    ..This variation among strains is applicable whether predictions are made by traditional subjective and point estimates or by using models and risk assessments...

    J Food Prot 70:2620-5. 2007
    ..These results suggest that 1.8% of lactate-diacetate mixture can be used as a substantial hurdle to the growth of L. monocytogenes when refrigerated temperatures are maintained for products with pH less than 6.5...

    J Food Prot 66:1469-73. 2003
    ..A similar but less obvious trend was observed for broths stored at 10 degrees C. These results indicate that lactate-diacetate combinations effectively acted with low pH and temperature to inhibit the growth of L. monocytogenes Scott A...
