Moist heat during pasteurization kills all of the following microorganisms, EXCEPT:
High-Yield Explanation
The temperature employed is either 630C for 30 minutes (the holder method) 720C for 15-20 seconds (the flash process) followed by cooling quickly to 130C or lower. By these processes all nonsporing pathogens such as mycobacteria, brucellae and salmonellae are destroyed. Coxiella burnetii is relativrly heat resistant and may survive the holder method.
