LECT 2
Reconstructed meat are fused from small meat pieces. Which factor could bring concern over microbial quality?
A. pH
B. Temperature
C. Water activity
D. oxidation-reduction potential
D
thought it is water activity
- its still meat, water activity shouldn’t change much
- introduce a lot more oxygen in reconstituting small pieces of meat
LECT 2
Which of the following group of bacteria cannot grow in the fridge?
