Practice question
Question
To reduce the level of deactivation of media components for culturing Lactobacillus spp., a high temperature and short time (HTST) regime is used for sterilization, PRIMARILY because:
Explanation
In aptitude and reasoning, quantitative reasoning dictates that ratio, percentage and series logic determine correct calculation. Therefore Deactivation energy of contaminants > Deactivation energy of medium components is correct as it meets mathematical and logical criteria, supported by mechanistic studies and conserved across related systems.
