Abstract:
:This paper describes a novel method of measuring the contamination of raw foods with airborne bacteria during primary processing. To demonstrate the approach, this study aimed to quantify the role of airborne bacteria in the contamination of broiler chicken carcasses undergoing processing in an evisceration room. Settle plates and broiler carcasses were exposed to the evisceration room air or to ultra-clean air provided by a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) unit located within the room. The use of ultra-clean air reduced the total aerobic counts on horizontal settle plates by 68-fold, and on vertical settle plates by 14-fold. The use of ultra-clean air had no significant effect on the total aerobic counts on carcasses as measured by sponging (3.5 log(10) CFU cm(-2)) or skin excision (4.0 log(10) CFU cm(-2)). The novel approach was able to show that the carcasses entering the room were so heavily contaminated that the airborne bacteria in the evisceration room contributed less than 1% of the total numbers of bacteria on the carcasses.
