Abstract:The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different zearalenone (ZEA) concentrations (0, 10, 100, 250, 500, 1 000 µg/l) on growth of Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas fluorescens in milk. The samples were incubated for 6 days at 22 and 30 °C (B. cereus and S. aureus) or at 6.5 and 22 ℃ (P. fluorescens), respectively. Counts of bacteria in milk were measured every 24 hours. Maximum counts of B. cereus after 144 h of incubation at 30 ℃ ranged from 7.00 to 7.78 log CFU/ml. The most… Show more
