Effect of the matrix characteristics on the thermo-
resistance of microorganisms
Water:
Absence of water increases thermo-resistance: slows down protein
denaturation
Fat:
Thermoprotective effect (?)
Carbohydrates:
Increase resistance when reducing the Aw
Proteins:
Increase resistance
pH:
Deviations from the optimum pH increase thermosensitivity
Age of microorganisms:
The older the culture is (stationary phase), the more resistant
Driying
Resistencia
Gram-negative bacteria
Gram-positive bacteria
(cocci> bacilli)
Bacterial spores
