The aim of this study was to evaluate the performances of two growth models for prediction of Salmonella Enteritidis in ground beef, namely the extended logistic model and the ComBase web edition Baranyi model. Performances of the growth models were evaluated by using various statistical criteria, namely the square root of the mean of the square error (RMSE), calculation of the residuals, and student T. test. It was found that both models described well the growth curves for Salmonella Enteritidis at various initial doses, constant and dynamic temperatures. In addition, no significant differences were observed between the estimated values of data points at various initial doses and at constant and dynamic temperatures with the two models (p>0.05) except at the initial dose of 2 log (CFU/g) that was significant (p
