and stored at 4°C for 2 h. Then the samples were 10fold serially diluted in 0.1% peptone water (PW), and 100 µL from each dilution was plated on Campy-Cefex agar. The population of C. jejuni was determined after incubating at 42°C for 48 h under microaerophilic conditions. LAE treatments resulting in nondetectable Campylobacter survivors in broth were used for resuscitation experiment. For this, 1 mL of the solution from the above mentioned treatments were added into 9 mL of Bolton’s broth and incubated under microaerophilic conditions at 42°C. After 24 h of enrichment, samples were streaked onto Campy-Cefex agar plates and incubated for 48 h at 42°C under microaerophilic conditions.
