CONCLUSIONS • A. bogorensisis more heat resistant after cultivation at 30 °C than at 25 °C. • A. bogorensis is sensitive to relatively low temperatures (D55= 0,6 min). • Heat resistance of A. bogorensis at 50 °C is the least at pH 8. • Possibilityof heat treatment usage for optimalization of sanitizing process, whereas thermally sensitive components of equipment are not damaged.
