Survival and growth of acid adapted Escherichia coli strains in broth at different pH levels
2009-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Acid resistance of Escherichia coli O157:H7 strain UT 10 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 was determined in brain heart infusion broth at pH 7.4, 4.5 and 2.5. Variations due to acid stress in the counts of both strains were also determined. Acid adaptation enhanced the survival of both strains at pH 4.5, but neither strain could survive after 4 h at pH 2.5. At optimum growth conditions (pH 7.4), E. coli ATCC 25922...
