Antimicrobial applications of treatments using light pulses emitted from light emitting diodes (LED)
DownloadSpring 2022
Low water activity (aw) foods have been associated with several foodborne outbreaks and recalls. Eradication of foodborne microorganisms like Salmonella and Escherichia coli from low aw foods is challenging, as they are resistant to conventional decontamination practices. High intensity light...
