Abstract	M.A. DEZA, M. ARAUJO AND M.J. GARRIDO. 2005. Aim: To ascertain the efficacy of neutral electrolysed water in reducing Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes on glass and stainless steel surfaces. Its effectiveness for that purpose is compared with that of a sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) solution with similar pH, oxidation–reduction potential (ORP) and active chlorine content. Methods and Results: First, the bactericidal activity of Electrolyzed Water was evaluated over pure cultures (8Æ5 log CFU ml) of the abovementioned strains: all of them were reduced by more than 7 log CFU ml within 5 min of exposure either to Electrolyzed Water (63 mg l active chlorine) or to NaClO solution (62 mg l active chlorine). Then, stainless steel and glass surfaces were inoculated with the same strains and rinsed for 1 min in either , NaClO solution or deionized water (control). In the first two cases, the populations of all the strains decreased by more than 6 log CFU 50 cm. No significant difference (P £ 0Æ05) was found between the final populations of each strain with regard to the treatment solutions (NEW or NaClO solution) or to the type of surface. Conclusions: Electrolyzed Water was revealed to be as effective as NaClO at significantly reducing the presence of pathogenic and spoilage bacteria (in this study, E. coli, L. monocytogenes, P. aeruginosa and S. aureus) on stainless steel and glass surfaces. Significance and Impact of the Study: Electrolyzed Water has the advantage of being safer than NaClO and easier to handle. Hence, it represents an advantageous alternative for the disinfection of surfaces in the food industry.
