Corrigendum to ‘‘Influence of the sporulation temperature on the impact of the nutrients inosine and L-alanine on Bacillus cereus spore germination’’ [Food Microbiol. 25 (2007) 202–206] Rabia Gounina-Allouane, Ve´ronique Broussolle, Fre´de´ric Carlin UMR 408 Se´curite´ et Qualite´ des Produits d’Origine Ve´ge´tale, INRA, Universite´ d’Avignon, Site Agroparc, F-84000 Avignon, Cedex, France

The authors regret that some data were inverted in Table 1 (p. 204). As a consequence, the data are not consistent with the text. The correct table is published below.

a

Over 90% of phase-bright free spores. Sporulation of strain LM9 at 12 1C, of strain D15 at 12 and 42 1C, and of strain ATCC14579 at 15, 42 and 45 1C was markedly delayed, and/or spores spontaneously germinated. Strain LM9 did not grow at 42 1C. b Decimal reduction time at 90 1C. The higher wet heat resistance of spores formed in the higher range of sporulation temperatures was confirmed for the three strains in replicate experiments (data not shown).
