Abstract
The Thermal death time values (TDT) were estimated for Dichotomomyces cejpii, Gilmaniella humicola, Talaromyces avellaneus and Talaromyces b acillisporus isolated from soil. TDT values were compared with the TDT values of the known heat-resistant species, Byssochlamys nivea, Neosa rtorya fischen and Talaromyces flavus. All species studied showed cons iderable heat resistance. The most resistant species Talaromyces avell aneus (172 cfu, initial concentration) of the isolates with unknown he at resistance withstood 90-degrees-C for 10 min. Byssochlamys nivea ap peared to be the most sensitive species under our experimental conditi ons.
