Developing Thermal Control of Salmonella in Low-Moisture Foods Using Predictive Models

Salmonella is highly resistant to heat inactivation in low-moisture food systems, but pilot-scale thermal treatments show promise for combatting it
Ren Yang Ph.D. Juming Tang Ph.D.
August 7, 2023

This article discusses the latest research elucidating the main reason why foodborne pathogens like Salmonella are more resistant to heat inactivation in low-moisture food (LMF) systems, including quantitative data relating thermal treatment temperature and water activity/relative humidity to the log-reduction rate of bacterial pathogens in different LMF. Case studies on pilot-scale thermal treatments for the control of Salmonella in LMF are also presented.
