Figure C.4.

Comparison between the Ln transformed values of ${\mathrm{\mu }}_{\max }$ observed for Y. enterocolitica on aerobically stored meat and the predictions provided by the model obtained fitting the experimental data of Gill and Reichel (1989). In the plot of the left, the red line represents the equivalence (i.e. predictions equal to observations). Grey dots represent the uncorrected predictions, while green points represent the corrected values after applying the calibration factor. Plot on the right show the observed ${\mathrm{\mu }}_{\max }$ (grey) versus the predicted ${\mathrm{\mu }}_{\max }$ (blue) as a function of the temperature of the experiment
