Thermoduric organisms are microorganisms that can survive high temperatures, typically those that exceed the pasteurization process, which usually involves heating to around 65-75°C (149-167°F). These organisms may not necessarily grow or reproduce at these temperatures, but they can withstand brief exposure to heat, making them resilient in various environments. Common examples include certain types of bacteria, such as some strains of Bacillus and Clostridium. Their presence is significant in food safety and quality, as they can survive processing methods and potentially cause spoilage or foodborne illness.
Thermoduric bacteria can survive and even grow at high temperatures, generally around 60-70°C. They are resistant to heat and are capable of withstanding pasteurization temperatures, making them a concern in dairy and food processing industries.

Thermoduric bacteria are those that survive the temperatures used in pasteurisation: 63ºC for 30 minutes or the equivalently lethal temperature.
Thermoduric mesophiles are often responsible for spoilage of improperly canned foods
Differentiate thermophilic to thermoduric
Thermoduric bacteria can survive and even grow at high temperatures, generally around 60-70°C. They are resistant to heat and are capable of withstanding pasteurization temperatures, making them a concern in dairy and food processing industries.
Thermophilic bacteria have growth temperatures that range from 45C to 85C, with an optimum temperature of about 60C. Thermoduric organisms can survive at extreme temperatures, e.g. pasteurization, but cannot grow.

An organism that eats another organism is called a consumer.
an organism's genotype is if the organism is dominate or recessive : /
organism that feeds on other organism and vegetation
