MIC of oil extract of ginger, clove, black pepper, mace, coriander, cardamom, capsicum, white pepper, and cumin against reference strains of S. typhimurium and L. monocytogenes. Was determined for both pathogens, after that the effect the most powerful spices against each pathogen was evaluated separately in beef burger during storage for three months at - 18{u00BA}C. Results of MIC showed that 4% (v/v) oil extract of ginger, black pepper, capsicum, white pepper, and cumin induced significant reduction in viable cell count of L. monocytogenes ER -
