Combined effect of nisin and pulsed electric fields on the inactivation of Escherichia coli

The Doehlert design was applied in order to investigate the combined effect of nisin and high voltage pulsed electric fields (PEF) on the inactivation of Escherichia coli in simulated milk ultrafiltrate media. Nisin alone was totally inactivated by PEF, but in the presence of bacterial cells a prote...
