Model for lag time (LT) and specific growth rate (SGR) of V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus in broth, sashimi, and oyster.

Model	Parameter	Strain	R2	Equation
Broth	LT	V. parahaemolyticus	0.997	Y* = 19.31 + (−1227/T) + (20945/T2)
		V. vulnificus	0.997	Y = 2.784 + (−65.53/T) + (387.6/T2)
	SGR	V. parahaemolyticus	0.976	Y = {0.03489(T−4.213)}2
		V. vulnificus	0.996	Y = {0.03115(T + 1.316)}2
Floundersashimi	LT	V. parahaemolyticus	0.992	Y † = −28.04 + (−1037/T) + (−1.867/T2)
	SGR	V. parahaemolyticus	0.990	Y = {0.02017 (T−3.223)}2
Salmonsashimi	LT	V. parahaemolyticus	0.993	Y = −25.43 + (993.2/T) + (1792/T2)
	SGR	V. parahaemolyticus	0.939	Y = {0.01052(T + 13.52)}2
oyster	LT	V. vulnificus	0.950	Y = 24.80 + (−1211/T) + (17449/T2)
	SGR	V. vulnificus	0.930	Y = {0.01380 (T + 5.604)}2

* LT = a + (b/T) + (c/T²); ^† Y = {b(T–Tmin)}².
