Microbes in Coconut Water
Dear Team,
Any one confirm.
Bacillus cereus & Clostridium spoil the Coconut Water.
If any reference available related this topic kindly share the same
Both bacteria you mentioned are not considered spoilage organisms. However, if you meant that could Bacillus cereus & Clostridium be present in coconut water? Yes, it is possible. Poor hygienic processing (dirty surfaces, dirty equipment, poor personal hygiene, incorrect pasteurization and/or sterilization of packaging... can lead to contaminated end product.
Thank you sir.
Normally Coconut water is sterile.
Is there any possibility of those microbes contamination without cut or damage the coconut shell?
Absolutely, a coconut shell and meat are a porous media
If there was any damage to the exterior, even microscopic in size, the microbes will migrate to the coconut water
