Abstrakt: We examined the effects of elevated temperatures and biocides on survivability of food isolates of Cronobacter spp. (C. sakazakii) and concomitant enterobacteriaceae obtained in microbiological control of infant nutrition products. Increased resistance of certain strains of Cronobacter, Enterobacter cloacae, and Pantoea spp. to thermal processing was revealed. Salmonella, Pantoea, and Cronobacter bacteria were least sensitive to antimicrobial action of chlorine-containing agents. The above properties varied in the strains of the same species. Specifically, only two of three examined isolates of Cronobacter spp. demonstrated lower sensitivity to heat in comparison with the enterobacterial test-cultures of other species.
