Hi All,
I need a second opinion on the Hazard Analysis I am doing for fermentation process .
Basically , the process of fermentation consists of fermenting rice bran with a fungal culture .
The steps involved are
1. Autoclaving of substrate(Proposed CCP)
2. Mixing of starter culture and substrate.
3.Fermentaion
4.Drying
5. Milling
6. Blending.
The starter culture is prepared by taking spores and inoculating it with media to get enough spores and use it as starter culture .
My risk assessment says , autoclaving will be a CCP . The question is , when preparing starter culture the initial spores are transferred to autoclaved media , will this autoclaving will also be a CCP ?Can a single CCP be enough to mitigate the hazard in two different process having common hazard.
As in,if I make my autoclaving as CCP, so when ever I autoclave something will it be attributed to CCP
Please let me know , if I am wrong in my understanding .
Thanks and Regards,
Ganesh
