“…As compared to ComBase, which has basically only four key retrieving items (organism, temperature, pH and water activity), TKDB R8110 directly provides an individual and substantial information, although it has no predictive function. Like its previous versions [4,5], the database is equipped with an information retrieving system that includes the following search categories, as shown in Fig. 2A can be applied to any arbitrarily selected item among a total of 70.…”

We made a re-expanded version for the database of thermal death of microorganisms, ThermoKill Database (TKDB) R8110. The database was built using data adopted and collected from research papers published between 1981 and 2010 in 25 major selected academic journals. The database includes thermal death data such as 20,467 D values and 3,272 z values along with predicted D values at reference temperatures, other microbial information, environmental conditions and bibliographic data for a total of 70 items. Representative statistical distribution data obtained from the novel database were demonstrated and discussed the significance of its practical use in food industry.

The results obtained from our studies on several aspects of food pasteurization and sterilization by cross-talk between microbiology and technology were presented. First, we found that the thermal death of Escherichia coli was affected by rising temperature and pre-incubation processes and it was suggested that the phase transition and phase separation of membrane lipids were involved in these phenomena. Second, we analyzed the kinetics of bacterial death by a combined treatment of heating with antimicrobial compounds and we presented two distinct modes depending upon the type of chemicals. Third, new methods for process evaluation and prediction of pasteurization effects, including the growth-delay analysis, the cell motion analysis and the analysis with the fluorescence of green fluorescent protein variants expressed in bacterial cell were proposed. And finally, we constructed the database of thermal death of microorganisms based upon the data which have appeared in articles published in 30 major academic journals. Also, some predictive models on the thermal death of bacterial spores in a buffer and liquid foods were predicted as influenced by several factors such as pH, the sodium chloride concentration and heating temperature.
