Single-cell growth probability of Listeria monocytogenes at suboptimal temperature, pH and water activity
The single-cell growth probability of Listeria monocytogenes was characterized in tryptone soy broth supplemented with 0.6% yeast extract at temperature ranging from 5 to 25°C, pH ranging from 4.4 to 6.5 and water activity ranging from 0.919 to 0.989. Growth was monitored visually in 96-mic...
