DETERMINATION OF RADIATION STERILIZATION DOSE FOR CANNED MEAT. Report No. 10 (Progress) for February 1, 1959 to April 30, 1959

OSTI ID:4150804
Unswollen cans of meat, taken from the inoculated packs of irradiation- processed meat under incubation, have been found to contain type A botuiinus toxin. The cans of meat containing this toxin had been inocuiated with approximateiy 10/sup 8/ C. botulinum 62A spores per can before irradiation processing. This suggests an upper limit for C. botulinum spore inocula where toxin presence is to be used as a criterion of irradiation sterilization. Further study of this finding is suggested. Studies have been initiated to evaluate the effect of temperature and of gamma radiation field strength during irradiation on survivor curves of anaerobic bacterial spores. (auth)
