Induction of viable but nonculturable Escherichia coli O157:H7 by high pressure CO2 and its characteristics.
The viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state is a survival strategy adopted by many pathogens when exposed to harsh environmental stresses. In this study, we investigated for the first time that whether high pressure CO2 (HPCD), one of the nonthermal pasteurization techniques, can induce Escherichia co...
