The activation enthalpy (ΔH<sup>#</sup>), activation entropy (ΔS<sup>#</sup>), activation energy (E<sub>a</sub>) and frequency factor (K<sub>o</sub>) for thermal inactivation of <i>A. hydrophila</i> in the soymilk samples were also obtained. Thermal inactivation of the organism followed first order reaction kinetics. The heat destruction rate constant (k) decreased with increase in heating temperature. The activation energy ranged from 210.98 to 215.28 kJ/mol increasing with decrease in pH and increase in sugar concentration of soymilk.

The Slaughter house plays important role in prevention of zoonotic diseases between animals and humans like Mycobacterium tuberculosis as reemerging foodborne illness and also prevent infectious diseases between animals. Bovine Mycobacterium tuberculosis is caused by a species of pathogenic Gram positive, acid fast stain bacteria in the Mycobacteriaceae family. the causative agent bacteria of Bovine tuberculosis as reemerging foodborne illness tuberculosis bacteria has an waxy cover on its surface primarily due to the presence of acid called mycolic which refers the cells impervious to Gram staining, and as a result, the causative agent bacteria of Bovine tuberculosis as reemerging foodborne illness may appear weakly Gram-positive. Acid-fast bacilli by using certain stains called Ziehl Nielsen, or through using stain called fluorescent such as aura mine are used to identify the cause of Bovine tuberculosis as reemerging foodborne illness with a microscope. The Bacteria cause Bovine tuberculosis as a reemerging foodborne illness is aerobic bacteria and needs high concentrations of oxygen. Mainly this bacteria is pathogenic to human and mammal's respiratory system, it infects the lungs. The most diagnostic means for Bovine tuberculosis as a reemerging foodborne illness are the tuberculin skin examination, stain of acid-fast, laboratory culture, and through using polymerase chain reaction method.","PeriodicalId":512004,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food Engineering and Technology","volume":"700 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140446474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
