Abstract
Arcobaeter butzleri is one of the aerotolerant Campylobaeter species which cause persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting in human. The aim of this study was to determine the growth and survival of A. butzleri under the heat treatment or freezing storage condition. In heat treatment, two Korean isolates of A. butzleri were treated at 40 to $80^{\circ}C$ for various times. In freeze treatment, two Korean isolates of A. butzleri were kept at 4, -20 and $-70^{\circ}C$ from 1 to 15 d. The survivability of the A. butzleri Korean isolates significantly decreased at higher than $60^{\circ}C$ heating condition but it didn't show any significant difference in $40^{\circ}C$ treated group. Under the cold stress condition, survivability of A. butzleri were significantly decreased at $-20^{\circ}C$ storage. Like other foodborne pathogens, survivability of A. butzleri was controlled by heat and freezing treatment.
