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: towards the interface and beyond

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Microbiology, 2002
This review considers the concept and history of predictive microbiology and explores aspects of the modelling process including kinetic and probability modelling approaches. The "journey" traces the route from reproducible responses observed under close to optimal conditions for growth, through recognition and description of the increased variability ...

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: providing a knowledge-based framework for change management

open access: yesInternational Journal of Food Microbiology, 2002
This contribution considers predictive microbiology in the context of the Food Micro 2002 theme, "Microbial adaptation to changing environments". To provide a reference point, the state of food microbiology knowledge in the mid-1970s is selected and from
