title = "Inactivating pathogenic micro-organisms through microwave sterilization technology",
abstract = "Microwave heating as a means of inactivating pathogenic micro-organisms in commercially produced food products in sterilization and pasteurization processes is discussed in this paper. The physics of a microwave heating system was explored and compared to the more widely used retorting processes. Existing and developing microwave sterilization processes were researched and are discussed here.",
