Repair of Heat-Injured Clostridium perfringes During Outgrowth1

J T Barach 1, R S Flowers 1, D M Adams 1
PMCID: PMC187287  PMID: 173240

Abstract

Clostridium perfringens strain NCTC 8798 spores were injured by ultrahigh temperature treatment and were unable to outgrow in the presence of antibiotics used in selective enumeration media. Injured spores underwent repair in a nonselective laboratory medium and in foods.
