Inhibitory effect of ethanol and thiamine dilaurylsulfate against loosely, intermediately, and tightly attached mesophilic aerobic bacteria, coliforms, and Salmonella Typhimurium in chicken skin.

ABSTRACT: The effects of 3 ethanol levels (30, 50, and 70%) with and without thiamine dilaurylsulfate (TDS; 1,000 ppm) were evaluated for the reduction of natural mesophilic aerobic bacteria (MAB), coliforms, and inoculated Salmonella Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) in chicken skin. The chicken skin was inoculated with a 7 log cfu/mL suspension of S. Typhimurium. Loosely, intermediately, and tightly attached cells were recovered from chicken skin through shaking at 200 rpm for 5 min, stomaching for 1 min, and blending for 1 min, respectively. Increasing the ethanol concentration reduced the number of MAB, coliforms, and S. Typhimurium on the chicken skin, whereas TDS treatment without ethanol was not effective. Intermediately and tightly attached microorganisms (total MAB, coliforms, and S. Typhimurium
