UV-C treatment for the inhibition of molds isolated from dried persimmons (Diospyros kaki L.) and modelling of UV-C inactivation kinetics

Abstract Ultraviolet (UV–C) is one of the alternative non-thermal technologies used for the surface decontamination of many foods. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of UV-C treatment on molds isolated from dried persimmons and also to determine the inactivation kinetics of selected UV-C resistant mold cultures. UV-C resistant fungal strains identified by using molecular methods were Rhizopus oryzae, Aspergillus niger and Alternaria tenuissima. UV-C resistant fungal spore suspensions were subjected to UV-C at doses of 0.6–18 kJ/m2 under in vitro conditions to characterize the inactivation kinetics. UV-C treatment at 0.6 kJ/m2 significantly reduced the numbers of test molds (P
