The Bactericidal Efficacy and the Mechanism of Action of Slightly Acidic Electrolyzed Water on <i>Listeria monocytogenes’</i> Survival
In the present work, the bactericidal efficacy and mechanism of slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) on <i>L. monocytogenes</i> were evaluated. The results showed that the strains of <i>L. monocytogenes</i> were killed completely within 30 s by SAEW whose available chlor...
