The purposes of this
study were to: (1) determine the effect of the combinatorial use of
UVC followed by FP to inactivate the L. monocytogenes surrogate
L. innocua on the surface of frankfurters that contain SDA/PL; (2)
to determine the growth potential of L. innocua on UVC-FP treated
frankfurters that contained SDA/PL; and (3) to determine the effect
of UVC-FP on frankfurter color and texture.
