Abstract

The liquid suspension response of microorganisms was determined by the use of dielectric measurement cells. The dielectric study of yeast cells suspended in Ringers established thermal treatment as the most effective technique for the inactivation of yeast cells. The magnitude of the tan delta peaks varied during the measurements made on the suspension containing yeast cells. The effectiveness of thermal, compressive, pulsed electric field and ultraviolet pasteurization was investigated on the dielectric response of food related microorganisms.
