Hi all,
My auditor recently had me perform micro testing on my production machines, environmental air, and on the staffs hand and clothing. I am unable to find any limits through the FDA or anywhere else to compare my results to. The laboratory that performed them let me know I have to establish my own baseline but I don't see me performing these tests on a regular basis to create a baseline. We are a packaging company that produces a "packaging product" not packaging a food and the main production process is covered.
Audit was to get 22000 certified.
He asked of the following..
total coliform
total count
mold
yeast
For both inert and live surfaces as I mentioned above.
