    1. The following data were obtained from a thermal resistance experiment conducted on a
    spore suspension at 112C:

    Determine the D value of the microorganism.


    [4.1 min]

    2. The following data were obtained from a thermal resistance experiment conducted on a
    spore suspension at 112C:

    Determine the D value of the microorganism.


    [27.8 min]

    3. Calculate the D value of an organism which shows 30 survivors from an initial


    inoculum of 5106 spores after 10 min at 121C.
    [1.9 min]

    4. The decimal reduction times D for a spore suspension were measured at several
    temperatures, as follows:

    Determine the thermal resistance constant z for the spores.


    [11.1C]
    5. If the z value of a microorganism is 16.5C and D121 = 0.35 min, what is D110?
    [1.62 min]
    6. Estimate the spoilage probability of a 50 min process at 113C when D113 = 4 min and
    the initial microbial population is 104 per container.
    [3.1610-8]
    7. An F0 value of 7 min provides an acceptable economic spoilage for a given product.
    Determine the process time at 115C.
    [27.9 min]
    8. The F value at 121.1C for a 99.999% inactivation of a strain of Clostridium
    Botulinum is 1.2 min. What is the D value of this organism at 121.1C?
    [0.24 min]
    9. Considering that 12 is the minimum sterilizing value for the inactivation of
    Clostridium Botulinum spores, calculate F0 based on inactivation of Clostridium
    Botulinum.
    [2.88 min]

    10. A process is based on an F0 = 2.88 min. If a can contained 10 spores of an organism


    having D0 = 1.5 min, calculate the probability of spoilage from the latter organism.
    [12%]

    11. A canned food prior to processing contains 1000 spores per can. The spores have a D
    value of 1.5 min at 121.1C. If the process is carried out to an equivalent process time of
    10 min at 121.1C, what would be the probability of spoilage?
    [2/10000]
    12. If the most probable spore load in a product is 100 spores per can and the D0 = 1.5
    min, calculate the time of heating at 121.1C necessary to achieve a probability of
    spoilage from this organism of one in 105 cans. Under these conditions, the D0 of
    Clostridium Botulinum Type B is 0.2 min. Is the calculated process time F0 equivalent to
    or more than what is required for a 12D reduction of Clostridium Botulinum?
    [F0 = 10.5 min]
    13. What level of inoculation of PA 3679 (D0 = 1.2 min) is required such that a
    probability of spoilage of one in 100 is attributed to PA 3679 would be equivalent to 12
    D inactivation of Clostridium Botulinum? Assume the same temperature process and the
    same z values for both organisms. The D0 value of Cl. Botulinum is 0.22 min.
    [N0=1.6]
    14. For an initial inoculum of 10 spores/g of product (D121C = 1.2 min), a spoilage rate of
    one can in 105 is desired. Calculate an F value for the process that would give the desired
    level of inactivation. Calculate F138C for a z value of 10C.
    [F0=7.2 min F138,10=0.14 min]
    15. For an initial inoculum of 100 spores/can of product (D121C = 1.5 min, z = 8C), a
    spoilage rate of one can in 104 is desired. Calculate F115C value for the process that would
    give the desired level of inactivation.

    16. Realice el mismo clculo hecho en problema 15, pero utilice k y Ea. Son los
    resultados iguales. Explique.
