Abstract: The objective of this study was to create a first-order predictive model for the growth of Enterobacteriaceae isolated from non-packaged braised whole duck under varying temperature conditions using the Gompertz model. Meanwhile, second-order predictive models were established based on the square root models describing the relationships of the maximum specific growth rate and the lag phase with temperature. The second-order model could predict the growth of Enterobacteriaceae in the temperature range of 0 to 28 ℃.
