Good day!
Your FDA will surely have microbiological guidelines for different processed products. It includes maximum limits and the acceptance/rejection criteria. If you are exporting it to another country, you might as well check the microbiological guidelines that they require.

Hi Yvette,
As discussed in several threads on this Forum, detailed Global info. such as you refer is seemingly not available in a compiled form.
2-3 decades ago FAO did issue such a compilation and i recall an enormous Tabulation was once publicly accessible on an official European website but afaik no longer available.
The conclusion here was that info. on micro. limits is both detailed and readily available for Certain Countries/Certain Products and the opposite for many other locations. (Afaik the Philippines happens to fall in the former Category).
Additionally IMEX the interpretation/implementation/legal consequences of micro. limits where published can vary enormously with location.
I do agree that the existence of such a Compilation would be of great value.
