Microbial contamination of pigs came from three slaughterhouses were detected, and critical control points in the progress of hog slaughter and processing were analyzed. The results showed that microbial con- taminatian existed in the entire slaughter and processing progress, including shower and assassination bloodletting, separation of the internal organs, chopping boards, workshop environment, personal hygiene of the operators, etc. , which should be paid more attention to. The results indicated that reasonable protection measures should be carried out, disinfection awareness of the operators should be improved, and regular disinfection should be ruled under the condition of continu- ous operation.展开更多

Its relationships with various environmental, climatic, ecological and other environmental conditions cause a lot of problems. In this paper, hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) analysis was conducted to identify the critical control points in forest regeneration process. As a result, it has a positive effect on the entire reforestation result. Critical control points will enable timely to draw attention to possible errors or incorrect solutions and consequently improve afforestation or restoration quality. Reforestation often occurs mistakes that lead to an unsuccessful reforestation. To remedy this situation, these critical control points should be identified with HAACP analysis.展开更多

Certain quantitative indicators were defined and analyzed to conclude about characteristic trends related to implementation of food safety legislation. The state's monitoring data on surveillance of catering establishments were used. Fulfillment of legislative requirements in about 6,000 catering establishments was evaluated during time period of 2004-2009. The results of investigation were obtained with help of statistical analyses using MS Excel computer program. The results of the research suggest that most of catering establishments (e.g., 83.6% during 2009) meet the hygiene requirements only partly. Non-conformities regarding HACCP-based self-control procedures were fixed during 49.2% of inspections. The research reveals characteristic shortcomings that are established from year to year, e.g., improper hygiene of premises (established during 30%-40% of inspections, depending on the year), poor hygiene of technological equipment (established during 27%-37% of inspections), poor personnel hygiene (established during 11%-22% of inspections), inadequate competence of food service personnel (established during 10%-35% of inspections), as well as non-observance of cleaning-disinfection procedures and technological parameters for food processing (established during 11%-25% of inspections, depending on the year). Actual shortcomings can lead to both the direct and the indirect cross-contamination of food. On the base of the research, it was concluded that further detailed assessment of potential food safety risks is relevant to establish risk-based monitoring activities in catering sector.展开更多
