    Abstract: The thermodynamics of thermal inactivation of Aeromonas hydrophila in soymilk of varying pH (6.0-7.0) and sugar concentration (0-10%) were studied at a temperature of 50-65°C using kinetic parameters generated through the Classical thermobacteriology assumption of a log-linear relationship between A. hydrophila survivors and heating time. The activ... Show More
