The influence of incubation temperature, and of acetic, lactic and citric acids on the minimum pH for the initiation of growth of six strains of Yersinia enterocolitica was determined. The strains included two of serotype O : 9, two of serotype O : 3, and one each of serotypes O : 8 and O : 5, 27. In a culture medium acidified with HCl to pH values between 4.0 and 6.0 at intervals of approximately 0.1 unit the minimum pH at which growth was detected after incubation at 20 degrees, 10 degrees, 7 degrees and 4 degrees C for 21 d was in the ranges 4.18-4.36, 4.26-4.50, 4.36-4.83 and 4.42-4.80, respectively. The minimum pH for growth was also determined in media that contained 17, 33 and 50 mmol/l acetic acid adjusted to pH values between 5.1 and 5.9 at intervals of approximately 0.2 unit, 24, 48 and 95 mmol/l citric acid adjusted to pH values between 4.1 and 4.9 at intervals of approximately 0.2 unit, and 22, 44, and 111 mmol/l lactic acid adjusted to pH values between 4.3 and 5.7 at intervals of approximately 0.4 or 0.5 unit. The effect of these concentrations of organic acids was, in most cases, to increase the minimum pH that allowed growth. The order of effectiveness of the organic acids in raising the minimum pH for growth was acetic greater than lactic greater than citric and the minimum inhibitory concentrations were greater at higher temperatures.
