Abstract：Ultra-high pressure processing (UHPP) has already been established as an alternative to thermal processing
for the inactivation of foodborne microorganisms in different meat products for the extension of shelf-life such as fresh,
cured, stewed, smoked and grilled meat products. However, the effects of UHPP on the inhibition of growth of various
bacteria in these products vary. In this article, we review mechanisms of microbial inactivation during UHPP, which involve
morphological properties of foodborne microorganisms in meat products, and the conformational changes of microbial
enzymes that lead to their inactivation. These mechanisms may be regarded as a useful theory to promote the further
application of UHPP in meat industries.
