RT Journal Article T1 Reuterin and High Hydrostatic Pressure Treatments on the Inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes and Effect on the Characteristics of Cold-Smoked Salmon A1 Montiel, Raquel A1 Martín Cabrejas, Izaskun A1 Gaya, Pilar A1 Medina, Margarita AB The effect of reuterin and high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) processing at 450 MPa for 5 min on the inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes and the characteristics of coldsmoked salmon during 35 days at 4 and 10 °C were investigated. The growth rate of the pathogen was reduced by reuterin addition and a synergistic antimicrobial effect against L. monocytogenes was recorded when the biopreservative was applied in combination with HHP at 450 MPa for 5 min. This combined treatment prevented the pathogen recovery observed with individual treatments and delayed the spoilage of smoked salmon maintaining total viable counts under 3.5 log units during 35 days of storage at 4 °C. All treatments assayed induced changes in lightness (L*) and redness (a*), resulting in a brighter appearance of smoked salmon, whereas no modifications were recorded in shear strength values immediately after treatments. Moreover, reuterin and HHP treatments, individually or in combination, avoided the formation of biogenic amines during the 35 days of storage at 4 and 10 °C. The addition of reuterin in combination with HHP at 450 MPa for 5 min might be applied as a hurdle technology to improve the safety and extend the shelf life of lightly p PB Springer Nature SN 1935-5130 YR 2014 FD 2014 LK https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/98574 UL https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/98574 LA eng NO Montiel, R., Martín-Cabrejas, I., Gaya, P. et al.
