Abstract
Yersinia enterocolitica 0 : 3 was studied throughout two central compo site designs to define the effects of temperature, pH and salt concent ration on bacterial growth. Mathematical models were established by re sponse surface methodology. The impedimetric technique was evaluated f or its rapidity and ability to produce detection times related to bact erial metabolism. Finally, predicted values derived from model equatio ns were compared with observed values obtained by plate counts.
