Abstract:
Abstract The kinetics of inactivation by hydrostatic pressure is measured for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, bacteriophage T4, and the spores of Bacillus subtilis. Temperature and pressure effects are discussed as well as the interrelation between germination and inactivation in the case of bacterial spores.
