The efficacy of grape seed extract (GE), citric acid (CA) or lactic acid (LA) on the inactivation of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in shucked oysters was studied. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of GE, CA or LA against V. parahaemolyticus in TSB-1% NaCl was also determined. The shucked oysters were artificially inoculated with V. parahaemolyticus, the inoculated shucked oysters (25 g) were then dipped in solution of GE (0.0, 10.0, 20.0, 50.0, 100, 200, 300 and 500 mg mL−1), CA (0.0, 5.0, 10.0, 15.0, 20.0, 50.0, 100, 200 and 300 mg mL−1) or LA (0.0, 1.0, 5.0, 10.0, 15.0, 20.0, 50.0, 100 and 150 mg mL−1) for 10 min. The population of V. parahaemolyticus in shucked oysters was determined. The MICs of GE, CA or LA against V. parahaemolyticus were 10.0, 5.0 or 1.0 mg mL−1, respectively. A 500, 300 or 150 mg mL−1 GE, CA or LA solutions were needed to reduce the population of V. parahaemolyticus to below the detection level (1.0 log g−1) in shucked oysters.
