High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) inactivation of three Listeria monocytogenes strains (EGDe, LO28, and Scott A) subjected to 350 MPa at 20°C in ACES buffer resulted in survival curves with significant tailing for all three strains. A biphasic linear model could be fitted to the inactivation data, indicating the presence of an HHP-sensitive and an HHP-resistant fraction, which both showed inactivation according to first-order kinetics. Inactivation parameters of these subpopulations of the three strains were quantified in detail. EGDe showed the highest D-values for the sensitive and resistant fraction, whereas LO28 and Scott A showed lower HHP resistance for both fractions. Survivors isolated from the tail of LO28 and EGDe were analyzed, and it was revealed that the higher resistance of LO28 was a stable feature for 24% (24 of 102) of the resistant fraction. These HHP-resistant variants were 10 to 600,000 times more resistant than wild type when exposed to 350 MPa at 20°C for 20 min. Contrary to these results, no stable HHP-resistant isolates were found for EGDe (0 of 102). The possible effect of HHP survival capacity of stress-resistant genotypic and phenotypic variants of L. monocytogenes on the safety of HHP-processed foods is discussed.

In this work, the inactivation kinetics of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris spores by temperature-assisted high hydrostatic pressure was assessed by means of the Weibull model. Spores from two A. acidoterrestris strains (a wild-type strain and a reference strain) were inoculated in commercial orange juice and subjected to high pressure levels (500 and 600 MPa) combined with four temperature regimes (25, 45, 60 and 70 °C) for time up to 30 min. Results showed that for a given high-pressure level spore inactivation was higher as temperature progressively increased. Furthermore, the Weibull model consistently produced satisfactory fit to the inactivation data based on the values of the root mean squared error (RMSE < 0.54 log colony-forming units (CFU)/mL) and the coefficient of determination (R2 > 0.90 in most cases). The shape of inactivation curves was concave upward (p < 1) for all temperature/high pressure levels tested, indicating rapid inactivation of the sensitive cells of the bacterium whereas the remaining ones adapted to high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment. The values of the shape (p) and scale (δ) parameters of the Weibull model were dependent on the applied temperature for a given high pressure level and they were further described in a secondary model using first-order fitting curves to provide predictions of the surviving spore population at 55 and 65 °C. Results revealed a systematic over-prediction for the wild-type strain regardless of temperature and high pressure applied, whereas for the reference strain under-prediction was evident after 3 log-cycles reduction of the surviving bacteria spores. Overall, the results obtained indicate that the effectiveness of high hydrostatic pressure against A. acidoterrestris spores is strain-dependent and also underline the need for temperature-assisted HPP for effective spore inactivation during orange juice processing.

The effect of pH on the initiation of germination and on the inactivation of Bacillus cereus (KCTC 1012) spores during high hydrostatic pressure processing (HPP) with pressures of 0.1 to 600 MPa at different temperatures was investigated. Two different high-pressure treatments were adopted to evaluate the effect of pH on the inactivation of B. cereus on sporulation medium and in suspension medium. Inactivation of B. cereus spores with HPP treatment was affected more by sporulation medium pH than by suspension medium pH. B. cereus spores obtained through sporulation at pH 6.0 showed more resistance to inactivation by HPP at 20, 40, and 60°C than did those obtained through sporulation at pHs of 7.0 and 8.0. Constituents of B. cereus spores obtained through sporulation at pH 6.0 may undergo electrochemical charge changes comparable to those for spores obtained through sporulation at pH 7.0. The initiation of B. cereus spore germination was more sensitive to pressure around 300 MPa at 20°C. Increasing processing temperatures during HPP enhanced the effect of sporulation medium pH (i.e., environmental pH) on the inactivation of B. cereus spores.
