Open DOI
Effect of preheating on high hydrostatic pressure-induced germination of Bacillus subtilis spores
This study investigated the effect of preheating on high hydrostatic pressure (HHP)-induced germination of Bacillus subtilis spores. HHP-induced germination at 100 MPa was accelerated by preheating at 50–70 °C and suppressed at 80–100 °C...
