Abstract
ABSTRACTThe effects of gamma‐irradiation doses (0, 0.5, and 1.0 Mrad) on C. botulinum toxin production in turkey frankfurters formulated with three different chloride salts (NaCl, KCl, and MgCl2) at isoionic strength (equal to 2.5% NaCl) and three types of phosphates added to 2.0% NaCl frankfurters were studied. The use of 2.5% NaCl together with 0.5 or 1.0 Mrad was substantially more effective at inhibitinlg botulinal toxin production when frankfurters were incubated at 27°C than the combination of irradiation with KCl or MgC12 (40, 9, and 4 days, respectively, when treated with 1 Mrad). Phosphate addition revealed that 0.4% sodium acid pyrophosphate addition was the most inhibitory for botulinal toxin production followed by hexametaphosphate and tripolyphosphate addition.
