EVALUATING THE EFFICACY OF NON-THERMAL MICROBIAL LOAD REDUCTION TREATMENTS OF HEAT LABILE FOOD COMPONENTS FOR IN VITRO FERMENTATION EXPERIMENTS.

Evaluating the efficacy of non-thermal microbial load reduction treatments of heat labile food components for in vitro fermentation experiments.

Increasingly, in vitro simulated colon fermentations are being used as a pre-clinical step to assess the impacts of foods and drugs on the gut microbiota in a cost-effective manner.One challenge in such systems is that they are potentially susceptible to the influences of contaminating microbes in test materials.Simulated gastric and intestinal dig
