Effect of water activity on growth and enterotoxin D production of Staphylococcus aureus
Four enterotoxin D-producing strains of Staphylococcus aureus, were cultured at 37°C in brain heart infusion broth adjusted to various water activity ( a w) level by means of NaCl. For high cell inocula growth of all strains and enterotoxin D production were observed within 6 days at a w levels down...

| Zusammenfassung: | Four enterotoxin D-producing strains of
Staphylococcus aureus, were cultured at 37°C in brain heart infusion broth adjusted to various water activity (
a
w) level by means of NaCl. For high cell inocula growth of all strains and enterotoxin D production were observed within 6 days at
a
w levels down to 0.86. |
