About this document
Control Microbial Growth with Cold by Ewan Shahzwan is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Low temperatures inhibit microbial growth by slowing microbial metabolism. Most organisms do not grow at 0°C. Perishable foods are stored at low temperatures through refrigeration and freezing to slow spoilage. Mechanisms of cold inactivation include slowing microbial multiplication and autolysis, as well as membrane structure changes at low temperature limits. Methods for controlling microbial growth include refrigeration, deep freezing, lyophilization, and low temperature gas plasma. Low temperatures redu
