Example: MC for verifying the performance of a food safety control system New Zealand-led Drafting team
Drafting Team Costa Rica Kenya Kiribati New Zealand Samoa
Organism of concern Campylobacter spp
Point in food chain – food/food process Food: fresh raw broiler chicken carcasses Point of food chain: after slaughter, dressing and initial chilling to check status at the end of primary processing
Purpose Purpose: to verify whether a food safety control system applied to the slaughter and dressing of broiler chicken achieves a regulated performance target for Campylobacter
Who should establish/who should apply Established: by regulator in consultation with industry Applied: by processors of broiler chickens. GHP and hazard-based measures are selected by individual processors that best meet the target.
Sampling plan 3 samples to be taken each processing day 5 processing days = 15 samples = 1 processing period 3 processing periods = window So: n = 45 samples in window m = limit of 3.78 log10 colony forming units/carcass (90th percentile of target distribution curve) c = 6 (max. number of results that can be above m)
Method of analysis Method of analysis: direct plate enumeration (mCCDA)
Interpretation of results – Moving Window n= 45 samples in window m = 3.78 log10 cfu/carcass c = 6 (max. number that can be above m)
Example – Moving Window 3 c = 6 Action!
Actions in case of non-compliance Escalating Response • GHP and HACCP review • Processing Equip WOF, Farm review • Sampling, + interventions • Regulatory visit +/- sanctions • Sanctions
