A Concept for Rapid Prediction of Microbiological Reduction in Automatic Dish Cleaning Processes: The Microbiological Inactivation Equivalent (MIE) Unit
Abstract:The aim of this study was to establish a simple model describing the microbial reduction of a cleaning process by only using physical parameters of a given cleaning process (time and temperature) together with microorganism-specific inactivation parameters. The \Microbiological Inactivation Equivalent (MIE) unit" representing the time-temperature integral of a dish treatment process for a specific microorganism was developed. Microbiological reduction in suspension and dishwasher tests was tested in parallel. … Show more
