It is critical to maintain low levels of microbes in the whole food production chain. Due high speed slaughter, lack time, and structural characteristics crates, sufficient cleaning disinfection crates used for transporting chickens abattoirs a challenge. Inadequately cleaned transport broiler caused major outbreak campylobacteriosis Sweden 2016–2017, when contaminated introduced Campylobacter during thinning. This study evaluated antibacterial efficacy 265-nm ultraviolet (UV–C) LED light on...
Traditionally, food safety knowledge has been seen as a factor in improving behaviour. However, the relationship between and behavior is complex. The aim of present study was to investigate self-reported data from 408 university students regarding background, knowledge, attitudes, behaviour using Structural Equation Model (SEM) examine influence different factors on SEM applied four derived data: Background, Knowledge, Attitude Behaviour. novelty this current investigation inclusion...
Campylobacteriosis is the most frequently reported foodborne illness in Europe and many other parts of world. Campylobacter can colonize intestines broilers, mostly large amounts. Broilers are usually slaughtered a high-speed automated system that could cause rupture during evisceration, resulting contamination carcasses with intestinal bacteria like Campylobacter. This study evaluated combined effects ultrasound steam (SonoSteam) on naturally contaminated chicken at large-scale abattoir...
Although the Dictyocaulus lungworm, agent of dictyocaulosis, is one parasitological threats to European bison, its systematic position remains unclear. The aim present study was evaluate morphological features lungworm and pathological lesions it induces, analyse mitochondrial (mt) genetic markers for molecular epidemiological studies. findings indicate that lungworms bison can be distinguished from those cattle on basis differences in buccal capsule wall length, total body spicules length...
Inadequate cleaning and disinfection (C&D) in slaughterhouses can cause bacterial contamination of meat, resulting foodborne disease reduced meat quality. Different methods for monitoring the efficacy C&D procedures are available, but few studies have assessed their reliability. This study examined evaluated diagnostic performance measuring surface hygiene. One red one poultry slaughterhouse Sweden were each visited on six occasions before after C&D. Sampling points sampled with: swabbing...
Inadequate cleaning and disinfection (C&D) in slaughterhouses can cause bacterial cross-contamination of meat, resulting foodborne disease reduced meat quality. Low numbers bacteria be expected on cleaned surfaces, but an acceptable maximum upper threshold is lacking European Union legislation. Thus food business operators must apply a risk-based approach to select specific thresholds for their slaughterhouse. Different methods monitoring the efficacy C&D procedure are available, few studies...
