“…Slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) is increasingly valued for its broad-spectrum bactericidal effect and green safety, due to its chemical composition (HClO as the main chlorine compound) and near-neutral pH ( Ding et al, 2015 , Ding et al, 2015 ), there are few adverse effects on human health and the environment. Studies on the bactericidal effects of SAEW on a wide range of bacteria have been reported in the current literature ( Al-Holy and Rasco, 2015 , Li et al, 2017 , Li et al, 2017 , McCarthy and Burkhardt, 2012 ), and SAEW has been used for disinfection of food processing surfaces and other sites ( Yan et al, 2023 ). The bactericidal mechanism of SAEW is mainly analyzed in terms of the dominant bactericidal factor and the target of action on microbial cells, and the characterization parameters of SAEW are available chlorine concentration (ACC), pH and oxidation reduction potential (ORP).…”
