TLDR
A new member of the family of growth models described by Baranyi et al. (1993a) is introduced in which the physiological state of the cells is represented by a single variable, and it is shown that the product of the lag parameter and the maximum specific growth rate is a simple transformation of the initial physiological state.About:

GInaFiT, a freeware tool to assess non-log-linear microbial survivor curves
TL;DR: GInaFiT (Geeraerd and Van Impe Inactivation Model Fitting Tool) as discussed by the authors is a freeware add-in for Microsoft Excel aiming at bridging the gap between people developing predictive modelling approaches and end-users in the food industry not familiar with or not disposing over advanced non-linear regression analysis tools.

Chitosan: antimicrobial activity, interactions with food components and applicability as a coating on fruit and vegetables
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of chitosan coatings on controlling decay of minimally processed fruits and vegetables (strawberry and lettuce) were investigated. And the results showed that chitoshan had a deacetylation degree of 94% and a molecular weight of 43 kDa on different psychrotrophic spoilage organisms and food pathogens.

Checklist of catfishes, recent and fossil (Osteichthyes: Siluriformes), and catalogue of siluriform primary types
TL;DR: A checklist of Recent and fossil catfishes (Order Siluriformes) is presented, summarizing taxonomic literature published through 2005, and one new name is proposed herein: Clariallabes teugelsi, as a replacement for Clarias (Allabenchelys) dumerili longibarbis David & Poll, 1937.

Modeling of the Bacterial Growth Curve
TL;DR: Several sigmoidal functions (logistic, Gompertz, Richards, Schnute, and Stannard) were compared to describe a bacterial growth curve by using the model of Schnutes, which is a comprehensive model, encompassing all other models.
