Good day,
I was hoping that someone would be able to give me guidance as to bacteria limits (TPC/TVC) of poultry receiving crates once washed.
Can anyone provide me with what the TPC/TVC limits should be for such crates?

Hi there,
The standard expected will depend on what poultry you are referring to; raw? cooked? live?
I would expect a clean crate to be typically < 100 APC/cm2 and Enteros to be absent although acceptability would depend on your situation.
Some useful information posted by Charles here:

Kind regards,
