Hello,
Listeria monocitogenes, for raw poultry cuts , like IQF Chicken Breast it is must to include in the control plan of micro tests, why and how often?
The Reg CE 2073/2005 it does not specify this, it is stated only for:
1.1. Ready-to-eat foods intended for infants and ready-to-eat foods for special medical purposes
1.2. Ready-to-eat foods able to support the growth of L. monocytogenes, other than those intended for infants and for special medical purposes
1.3. Ready-to-eat foods unable to support the growth of L. monocytogenes, other than those intended for infants and for special medical purposes (4) (8) Listeria monocytogenes 5 0 100 cfu/g EN/ISO 11290-2 (6) Products placed on the market during their shelf-life
Many thanks.
Cristina.
