Table 8.

L. monocytogenes predicted final concentrations (log₁₀ CFU/g) after wet‐ageing depending on initial level of LAB bacteria assuming competition according to the Jameson effect. Conditions for the modelling are shown in Table 3

Scenario	Stage	L. monocytogenes concentrations (log₁₀ CFU/g)
Scenario	Stage	Mean	Median	75 percentile	95 percentile	Maximum
Initial concentration ^(a)	Start fresh meat preparation/ageing	−1.27	−1.32	−0.97	−0.45	0.65
No LAB	End ageing	0.80	0.71	1.40	2.57	5.04
1 log₁₀ CFU/g		0.76	0.70	1.35	2.38	4.65
2 log₁₀ CFU/g		0.69	0.64	1.25	2.18	4.33
3 log₁₀ CFU/g		0.52	0.47	1.01	1.86	3.71
