Cold tolerant Clostridia, particularly Clostridium estertheticum, are responsible for spoilage of vacuum-packed raw beef, lamb and venison, causing substantial losses to the meat industry. This study aimed to develop cultural and molecular methods for detection and enumeration of cold tolerant Clostridia with a view to understanding their ecology in the meat processing industry.
