USPOULTRY and the USPOULTRY Foundation announce the completion of a funded evaluation enterprise by researchers at Kansas State School that aimed to guage the connection between indicator microorganisms and Salmonella at re-hang and post-chill ranges. The evaluation was made attainable partly by an endowing Foundation reward from Cargill. The evaluation is part of the Affiliation’s full evaluation program encompassing all phases of poultry and egg manufacturing and processing. A summary of the completed enterprise is beneath.
Enterprise 739: Use of Qualitative and Quantitative Microbial Data to Resolve if Turkey Pre-Chill and Publish-Chill Sampling Are Predictive of Salmonella enterica Contamination in Ground Turkey
(Dr. Jessie Vipham and colleagues, Division of Animal Science and Enterprise, Kansas State School, Manhattan, Kan.)
In the meanwhile, USDA-FSIS mandates that big turkey processors sample one turkey out of every 3,000 at every re-hang (pre-chill) and post-chill processing steps to show course of administration. Understanding the connection between indicator microorganism ranges at these ranges and the presence of Salmonella in flooring turkey can improve course of administration strategies and testing packages. Dr. Jessie Vipham and colleagues at Kansas State School aimed to guage the connection between indicator microorganisms and Salmonella at re-hang and post-chill ranges. The look at assessed whether or not or not this technique could reliably predict Salmonella contamination ultimately grind, enhancing the turkey enterprise’s functionality to meet regulatory requirements. Findings supplied insights into the prevalence and administration of Salmonella contamination on turkey carcasses between re-hang, post-chill and flooring turkey. Data was produced which might be utilized to inform enterprise decision-making.
