Salmonella In Poultry Processing Plants

Salmonella is a bacteria that the poultry industry is constantly fighting.  Processing plants are where most testing is done, but tests are done on farms as well as the industry is always trying to improve its ability to fight this pathogen.  The article below though discusses an issue that may or may not be an issue and that is residuals of disinfectants causing better than expected lab tests.  The concern is that the disinfectant is killing the bacteria in the samples even after it is rinsed off.  The industry states that this is not happening and this article points out several flaws in the presentation that was given stating the contrary.  Residual action is one of PronTech's strengths.  It is what helps it to stand out against other products.  At 400 ppm PronTech has the ability to be used on food contact surfaces without a potable rinse.  This is because of PronTech's low toxicity and safety.  To know more about PronTech and its uses send us an email or leave a comment.  Below is the article discussing the issue of chemical residue and Salmonella control.
