the effect of process humidity on thermal inactivation of Salmonella Enteritidis PT30 on the
surface of almonds subjected to moist-air heating. Raw almonds were surface inoculated
to∼ 10 8 CFU/g and subjected to moist-air heating in a computer-controlled laboratory-scale
convection oven. Time-temperature data were collected for 125 conditions (five dry bulb
temperatures, 121 to 232° C; five process humidity levels, 5 to 90% moisture by volume; and …
