Hi,

 

Does anyone know where I can find the microbial standard limit for food from CODEX & EU Food Regulations? I would like to use it as a reference for new incoming raw material and would like to compare the microbial limit from CODEX & EU. As up until now, I only found microbial limit for certain food products such as meat, eggs, milk etc. What about for other food such as wheat, food additives? Would appreciate if one could help me out.

 

Thank you

afaik, Codex offer Standards for finished products. These occasionally contain microbial limits but IIRC not so often.

afaik the EC offer microbial limits for a range of RTE finished products.

 

A variety of microbial standards usually for finished products are compiled here -
