Development and Validation of a Novel Gas-Washing Bottle Incubation System (GBIS) for Monitoring Microbial Growth in Liquid Media Under Well-Controlled Modified Atmosphere Conditions.

ABSTRACT: The transition towards more sustainable packaging calls for improving our ability to predict, control, and inhibit microbial growth. Despite the importance of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) in food preservation, the exact relations between MAP gases (CO₂, O₂, N₂) and microbial behavior are still poorly understood. Addressing this major knowledge gap requires a specific infrastructure to gain precise control over the gas composition during storage time. Thus, this study aimed at developing and validating an innovative gas-washing bottle incubation system (GBIS) with an adapted pH methodology for monitoring microbial growth in liquid media under different well-controlled conditions.
