PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a better antibacterial composition which is added to water used for washing or processing poultry. SOLUTION: By using a composition containing peroxyacetic acid and peroxyoctanoic acid after it is added to water for washing poultry, it is possible to effectively diminish microbial contamination on the poultry. The composition has high antibacterial effect and is safe for humans and the environment. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for treating a meat product with a specific antimicrobial composition to reduce microbial colonies such as Escherichia coli in the meat product. SOLUTION: This method comprises treating a meat product with an antimicrobial composition comprising (A) pref. 4-12 wt.% of a =2 ppm in effective antimicrobial level and (B) pref. 20-50 wt.% of a =20 ppm in effective antimicrobial level and pref. containing 5-10 wt.% of hydrogen peroxide; wherein the component A is pref. a mixture of peroxyacetic acid and peroxyoctanoic acid in molar ratio of (10:1) to (1:1). For the treatment, it is recommended that a meat product is sprayed with the above composition at =3 log10.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for preventing proliferation of microorganisms in water for processing and water for transportation which is safe to the human body and is cost effective in food industry. SOLUTION: The water flow used for transporting and processing food is treated with an effective antimicrobial amt. of percarboxylic acid. As the amt. thereof, the oxidation reduction potential(ORP) of the water flow is maintained between about 280 to 460mV with respect to an Ag/AgCl standard electrode. Acetic acid peroxide is usable as the percarboxylic acid.
Abstract:
A method of using an antimicrobial composition on a food product is described where a first and a second antimicrobial composition is applied to a food product, the food product is packaged and sealed. The second antimicrobial composition comprises octanoic acid, a coupling agent and a buffer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of using an antimicrobial composition on a food product where the antimicrobial composition is applied to a food product, the food product is packaged and sealed, and then activation energy is applied to the sealed food product.
Abstract:
