Rinse & Chill TechnologyNovel Intervention for reduction of undesirable bacteria on beef carcasses and On-going Protection from coliforms and E. coli in vacuum packaged ground beef
Rinse & Chill Technology • Developed by MPSC, Inc. – St. Paul, MN • Post bleed vascular technology • Involves vascular rinse and chill of carcasses with a solution of saccharides, sodium chloride and phosphates
Rinse & Chill Technology • Provides for statistically “cleaner” carcass samples with respect to aerobic microorganisms when compared with controls 2 h cooler sponge samples/3 sampling dates
Rinse & Chill Technology • Provides for statistically “cleaner” carcass samples with respect to coliforms microorganisms when compared with controls 2 h cooler sponge samples/3 sampling dates
Control vs. Rinse & Chill CFU/cm2 C = Control T = R&C
Rinse & Chill Technology • Provides for statistically “cleaner” carcass samples with respect to aerobics microorganisms when compared with controls 24 h cooler sponge samples/3 sampling dates
Rinse & Chill Technology • Provides for statistically “cleaner” carcass samples with respect to coliforms microorganisms when compared with controls 24 h cooler sponge samples/3 sampling dates
Rinse & Chill Technology • Provides for statistically “cleaner” carcass samples with respect to generic E. coli microorganisms when compared with controls 24 h cooler sponge samples/3 sampling dates
Rinse & Chill TechnologyOn-going Protection • Significant on-going protection in further processing of carcasses, such as in ground beef • Inoculated with E. coli 0157:H7; • Vacuum packaged; 40F; 2 trials; triplicate
