Effect of pre-exposure to mild acid conditions (pH 4) on ACP inactivation efficacy for L. monocytogenes EGD-e (WT) and mutant strains (Inline graphic, untreated control; Inline graphic, cultures exposed to acid stress for 1 h; Inline graphic 1 min ACP; Inline graphic 1 min ACP to cultures exposed to acid stress). Experimental conditions: 1 min of direct plasma treatment at 80 kV following 1 h of Post treatment storage time. SD, standard deviation; ND, non-detectable. Limit of detection was 1.0 Log10 CFU/ml.
