The efficacy of two irradiation technologies: Ultraviolet-C light (UV-C), applied in water or in diluted peroxyacetic acid, and dry-pulsed light (PL) for the inactivation and growth inhibition of Listeria innocua in fresh-cut broccoli were evaluated. Water-assisted UV-C (WUV) (0.3 and 0.5 kJ/m2) reduced L. innocua initial populations by 1.7 and 2.4 log10 CFU/g, respectively; the latter dose also inhibited their growth for 8 d at 5 °C. Replacing water with 40 or 80 mg/L peroxyacetic acid did not improve this efficacy. Pulsed light (5, 10, 15, and 20 kJ/m2) showed no effect on native microbiota. Neither did 15 kJ/m2 PL inactivate L. innocua or inhibit its growth. Nonetheless, 24-h post-processing, PL (15 kJ/m2) increased total phenolic content by 25% in respect of chlorine-sanitation, and enhanced total antioxidant capacity by 12 and 18% compared to water and chlorine controls, respectively. Unlike dry-PL, WUV appears to be a suitable technology for controlling L. monocytogenes populations in fresh-cut broccoli.
