Abstract
A new microbiological predictive model was developed, relating pH, NaCl concentration and temperature (T) with the decimal reduction coefficient D as dependent variable, using data previously reported by [1]. The model was obtained by multiple linear regression using only three predictor variables (T 2, pH2 and NaCl), easily computed from the basic variables pH, NaCl concentration and temperature (T). The fitted model is robust, stable and satisfies all the basic hypotheses of the regression models. It also provides simplicity when compared with previously published models based on multiple linear regression tools.
