Effectiveness of the Thermal Treatments Used for Curd Stretching in the Inactivation of Shiga Toxin-Producing O157 and O26 Escherichia coli
Figure 4
Estimated log reductions of E. coli O157 in mozzarella cheese at dynamic temperature conditions (temperature range: 67–80°C) during heat treatment of cheese curds. Continuous black line represents the mean log reductions while the grey dashed lines are the 95% CI. Dashed black lines describe the evolution of time/temperature conditions.
