Effects of Temperature Abuse on the Growth and Staphylococcal Enterotoxin A Gene (sea) Expression of Staphylococcus aureus in Milk.

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of different temperatures and storage time on Staphylococcus aureus growth, sea gene expression, and synthesis of staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) in the pasteurized and UHT-pasteurized milk. Pasteurized and UHT-pasteurized milk were inoculated with 3.98 log CFU/mL of S.
