Abstract
The aim of this work was to evaluate the growth possibilities of Listeria monocytogens in the artificially contaminated fresh cheese during storage. Three variants of acid homogenized commercial fresh cheeses: mixed herbs, red pepper and garlic-pepper were studied. The lowest value of the specific growth rate of L. monocytogenes in the fresh cheeses was reported for red pepper variant. The highest value of this parameter was determined for the fresh cheese with pepper-garlic. The use of spices in the production of fresh unripened cheeses influence the viability and growth of bacteria L. monocytogenes during storage at the temperature range 3-15oC.
