Efficacy and mechanisms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilm inactivation using high-power pulsed microwave
Foodborne pathogens and biofilm formation pose a critical threat to food safety. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pathogen of interest in the food industry. High-power pulsed microwave (HPPM) is a non-thermal technology with proven efficacy towards bacterial inactivation. This study investigated the inac...

Zusammenfassung: | Foodborne pathogens and biofilm formation pose a critical threat to food safety. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a pathogen of interest in the food industry. High-power pulsed microwave (HPPM) is a non-thermal technology with proven efficacy towards bacterial inactivation. This study investigated the inactivation mechanisms and performance of different HPPM treatments (50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 Hz for 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 min, respectively) to identify the optimum conditions to inactivate P. aeruginosa PAO1 biofilms. The results showed significant cell inactivation at increasing frequency/time (p |
