ABSTRACT
Survival of acid‐adapted and nonacid adapted Listeria monocytogenes in Turkish white cheese with different salt concentrations (3.8 and 6.7% NaCl) was investigated. Cheese blocks were inoculated with L. monocytogenes and stored at 4C for 15 days. Samples were taken on different days and analyzed for the numbers of the pathogen, and the samples were challenged with simulated gastric fluid (SGF) for determining acid tolerance. There was no significant differences between the numbers of acid‐adapted and nonadapted L. monocytogenes cells regardless of the salt concentration on sampling days (P > 0.05). Challenge in SGF revealed that there was no significant difference between acid‐adapted and nonadapted bacteria in cheese with 3.8% NaCl throughout the storage period, while significant (P < 0.05) differences between those cells in cheese with 6.7% NaCl were found after day 5. These results suggest that acid‐adapted L. monocytogenes exposed to high salt concentration such as 6.7% may have an advantage in SGF.PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
Evaluation of potential stress responses of pathogens in food is important to understand the behavior of pathogens that can survive under stresses. As an environmental contaminant, Listeria monocytogenes may acquire adaptation to low acid conditions in cheese plants. Our results suggested that although there was no significant difference between acid‐adapted and nonadapted cells both in industrial (3.8% salt) and traditional (6.7% salt) white cheese, salt concentration significantly affected the survival of acid‐adapted cells in simulated gastric fluid (pH 2.3). These findings may indicate that L. monocytogenes, which is adapted to acid before contaminating high salt cheeses, may survive in stomach and cause infection. It can be said that increased salt concentration in cheese may not provide a barrier against acid‐adapted L. monocytogenes.2.
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effects of utilizing different processings of normal rice husk ash (RHA) and black rice husk ash (BRHA) on the mechanical and durability properties of high-strength concrete (HSC). Mechanical and durability properties of HSC were evaluated on concrete mixes containing unground BRHA and RHA and ground BRHA and RHA, their average particles sizes being 165, 85, 67 and 24 µm, respectively. The replacement of ordinary Portland cement with the ashes was adopted at 20%. The results showed that incorporating any form of RHA and BRHA in HSC reduced the slump value. The surface areas of RHA and BRHA, not their carbon content, determined the dosage of superplasticizer needed to achieve a targeted slump value. Concrete with unground and ground RHA incorporated exhibited 30% higher compressive strength while unground BRHA produced 30% lower compressive strength than that of the control concrete. Incorporating unground and ground RHA showed a synergy between filler and pozzolanic effect and had insignificant difference in mechanical and durability properties of the concretes. Meanwhile, incorporating ground BRHA showed a dominant filler effect in the concrete. Overall, the improvement of splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity of both RHA and GBRHA concrete showed a similar trend to that of the compressive strength of RHA concrete. The durability of concretes with unground and ground RHA and ground BRHA incorporated showed better performance than that of the control concrete. The material with 20% ground BRHA as partial cement replacement in HSC of Grade 50 could be used without any reduction in the mechanical and durability properties. Use of unground BRHA is not recommended because it did not improve these properties. 相似文献
