Abstract
The effect of rapid and slow chilling on survival and nisin sensitivity was investigated in Escherichia coli. Membrane permeabilization induced by cold shock was assessed by uptake of the fluorescent dye 1-N-phenylnapthylamine. Slow chilling (2 degrees C min(-1)) did not induce transient susceptibility to nisin. Combining rapid chilling (2,000 degrees C min(-1)) and nisin causes a dose-dependent reduction in the population of cells in both...
