The stressosome and SigB influence the baseline thermal resistance but not dynamic adaptation of Listeria monocytogenes: insights from kinetic modelling.

Abstract excerpt

This study takes a first step towards incorporating a more mechanistic basis into current microbial inactivation models. We focus on the role of SigB and the stressosome in the heat resistance of Listeria monocytogenes using a reference strain (EGD-e), as well as five mutant strains where SigB and/or the stressosome were mutated. Data was analysed using the Geeraerd model to quantify the link between...
