Enterobacteriaceae Limit in food confectionery?
Hi All,
May I know in food confectionery what can be limit for Enterobacteriaceae?
It is in my environmental program by monthly.
even though you've said you're not RTE, this is what I would strive for
General Hygiene indicator organism Result (colony-forming unit (cfu)/g) Satisfactory Enterobacteriaceae a <10'20, Escherichia coli b <20
Borderline 10'2 - <10'4
Unsatisfactory> 10'4
Yes results in cfu /ml for Enterobacteriacease. so it will be same limit .I have 40 cfu per ml.
It varies. With the confectionery ?
EC has maxima within Sampling Plans of 0, 5, 10,100 cfu/gram-ml for infant dried foods, pasteurised milk, milk powder, ice cream/egg products
