Relevance of microbial interactions to predictive microbiology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Microbiology, 2003
Microbial interaction can be ignored in predictive microbiology under most conditions. We show that interactions are only important at high population densities, using published data on inhibition of growth of Listeria monocytogenes in broth. Our analysis using growth models from predictive microbiology indicated that interactions only occur at ...

Predictive microbiology

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 1994
Predictive microbiology is based upon the premise that the responses of populations of microorganisms to environmental factors are reproducible, and that by considering environments in terms of identifiable dominating constraints it is possible, from past observations, to predict the responses of those microorganisms.

Predictive food microbiology for the meat industry: a review

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 1999
Predictive food microbiology (PFM) is an emerging multidisciplinary area of food microbiology. It encompasses such disciplines as mathematics, microbiology, engineering and chemistry to develop and apply mathematical models to predict the responses of microorganisms to specified environmental variables.

Modeling in Food Microbiology: from predictive microbiology to exposure assessment

open access: yes, 2016
Predictive microbiology primarily deals with the quantitative assessment of microbial responses at a macroscopic or microscopic level, but also involves the estimation of how likely an individual or population is to be exposed to a microbial hazard. This book provides an overview of the major literature in the area of predictive microbiology, with a ...

Predictive microbiology and food safety

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2000
The evaluation of risk in food safety requires knowledge of the probability that microbial population sizes will not exceed defined levels. This probability is evaluated assuming that the growth of the microbial population can be described by the Gompertz equation with the variance of growth depending on the population size.

Predictive microbiology: Quantitative science delivering quantifiable benefits to the meat industry and other food industries

open access: yesMeat Science, 2007
Predictive microbiology is considered in the context of the conference theme "chance, innovation and challenge", together with the impact of quantitative approaches on food microbiology, generally.
