abstract
Linguiça is a Portuguese traditional dry-fermented sausage whose microbiological quality and safety have been reported to be highly variable. The present study evaluated the influence of the addition of a commercial starter
culture and ripening temperature (10° C and 18°C) on the survival of L monocytogenes in linguiça
