Summary: Latest from our Journal Club: B. longum ssp. infantis EVC001 reduces NEC in preterm infants, improved cereulide detection in powdered formula, and new models on how temperature, pH, and water activity drive cereulide production by Bacillus cereus.
A new study developed quantitative kinetic models describing how temperature, pH, and water activity interact to regulate cereulide toxin production by emetic strains of Bacillus cereus. The findings providing actionable parameters for predictive food safety control.
