Building Effective Food Safety Systems for Bakery Products: Kill-Step Validation Research
• Reliance on the baking step to control pathogens
• Research findings revealed that Salmonella can survive in adverse conditions for a long time.
• Pathogens such as Salmonella spp. can be introduced into bakery products through a wide range of ingredients and poor hygienic practices.
Food Safety Challenges?
• There lacks published scientific proof or validation research
• FDA-FSMA regulatory requirement requires validation and verification of kill-step
• Process/kill-step validation is now a legal requirement in US
The need
• Pathogen free bakery products, assuring greater safety possible
• Protects consumers, builds confidence
• Helps in determining an effective treatment option
• Demonstrates compliance to the FDA-FSMA act.
• Can help bakery industries avoid repetition and duplication use of resources for kill-step validation research, and
• Offers a pathogen inoculation methodology for companies with limited resources and capabilities.
Short and long term benefits of this research to the baking industry
