hM6E+ 23(toft%Q&/|5)^0~#3w{hH|h0F#G#G?5x=)c/. The incorporation of ground meat or poultry pieces with intact muscle cuts is accomplished by mixing, tumbling or massaging the ground meat with the larger pieces. The sample plan must be representative of the lot. For instance, these standards may specify the kind and amount of meat or poultry, the maximum amount of non-meat and non-poultry ingredients, and any other ingredients allowed, or expected, in the final product. Other parameters in evaluating the deviation must be taken into account. The above levels are based on the absence of other inhibitory effects such as nitrite, competitive growth, sub-optimum temperatures, etc., which may be present in meat products. 9.76% would be rounded to 9.8, not 10%). Potential hazards associated with these automated processes include pathogen outgrowth from precursor materials and temperature abuse during production, metal particles from the equipment, excessive amounts of bone fragments and residual SRM. Fermentation room temperature is 24C for the first 10 hours, 30C for the second 10 hours and 37C for the final 18 hours. Recording thermometers are also preferable in drying and aging rooms but, in these rooms, it may be sufficient to read and record the temperatures 2 times a day. The formulation of all prepared meat products, including potential allergens, must be controlled as part of the operator's HACCP system. The combination used must provide enough heat energy to achieve at least a: A validation referencing a combination of internal product temperatures and minimum holding time (Annex D), or submission of a scientifically validated alternative from a Process Authority that suitably demonstrates that the manufacturing process is designed to deliver the necessary amount of thermal lethality. Another method that is currently used is the incorporation of the cure or brine by injecting the solution into large meat pieces then by mixing the ground meat with the injected meat. Once this has been established, frequent regular checks should be made. Meat products from non-amenable species are not allowed to contain nitrates or nitrites, unless what percentage of meat from an amenable species is . The lid must be adequately designed to prevent contamination of the product. Packaging materials must not impart any undesirable substance to the meat product, either chemically, physically or microbiologically and must protect them sufficiently to avoid contamination (See MIR, 92, FDR B.23.001). Non-pathogens include Pseudomonas species which predominate on the exposed surface of chilled meat and Laaobacilli on vacuum-packed meat. These generic requirements for slow cooling are applicable for a meat product that is formulated: Brine concentration in the finished product = [% salt / (% salt + % moisture in end product)] x 100. For each lot, the operator must take 30 samples of finished product and submit them for analysis. The mandatory outcome of refrigeration is to retarding outgrowth of pathogens and spoilage bacteria. The restructuring technology of meat originated in the 1960s. It is most often expressed in quantitative terms, i.e., as the amount of heat energy that must be applied to a specific meat product to achieve a given log10 reduction of a particular microorganism. Oxidative rancidity and other organoleptic quality issues can occur if freezing rates are slow. hbbd``b`OAD`$4^WR ne"j@zopGL@?0 mpS The examination program must be capable of achieving the following results: Prior to approval by the Inspector in Charge, the effectiveness of the program must be evaluated using lot examination to assure that on-line examination achieves equivalent or better results than lot examination. Concerning the acceptability of packaging material to high pressure processing, packaging material companies should send their requests to the CFIA's Food Safety Risk Analysis. The Food and Drug Regulations (Divisions 14 and 22) and the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990 (Schedule I) prescribe the standards for meat products manufactured in Canada. Examples of how to use the calculation method for constant temperature processes: Fermentation room temperature is a constant 26C. This station must be equipped with a directly drained and remote controlled or timed hand wash facility, an 82C water sanitizer and adequate lighting. When using shipping containers without a lid, the bottom of the stacked shipping containers must not be supported by the shipping containers below.

This process may be used as an additional step to enhance the microbiological safety of these products. means an inner or outer receptacle or covering used or to be used in connection with a meat product, as defined by the Meat Inspection Act. Equipment used in the dehydration process must be included in the operator's prerequisite control programs. The following procedure is recommended: add inoculum to meats while grinding or chopping the meats to the desired consistency; blend in starter culture (if used) near end of mixing cycle; and. For all fermented meat products, in order to minimize the danger of outgrowth of Clostridium botulinum spores and development of the botulinal toxin in fermented product, nitrite/nitrate shall be added at a minimum level of 100ppm along with a minimum of 2.5% of salt. For details on mandatory prerequisite programs and HACCP plans to meet regulatory requirements, please refer to the Meat Hygiene Manual of Procedures (MOP) Chapter 3, Pre-requisite Programs and the Food Safety Enhancement Program (FSEP) Manual. "Curing" means, in respect of an edible meat product, that salt together with at least 100 parts per million (ppm) and not more than 200ppm of sodium nitrite, potassium nitrite, sodium nitrate or potassium nitrate or any combination thereof, was added to the meat product during its preparation. Packaging procedures must be included it the operator's prerequisite programs and HACCP system. The level of estimated increase in Clostridium perfringens concentration (log increase) will depend on the quality of data obtained by an evaluator and input into the program. This page was archived due to the coming into force of the Safe Food for Canadians Regulations. Establishments should separate the handling of cooked, partially cooked and raw products to prevent recontamination. a shipment or part of a shipment of boneless manufacturing meat derived from a single species going to a single destination; or. For the purposes of this section a lot is whichever is the lesser of: Evaluation technique of CFIA inspectors, in which samples are taken from the assembled "lot" of product to determine its wholesomeness. 1260-1266. The level of nitrate-nitrite should not interfere with the process of fermentation. Operators are responsible for determining whether their meat product is ready-to-eat (RTE) according to this section. The term comminuted meat is used to describe meat, either raw or pre-cooked, which has been cut, shredded, ground or minced into small pieces. Comminuted meat products are significant contributors to consumer fat and salt intakes, which are currently above World Health Organization recommended levels. The operator must prevent leakage. Each time a lot is evaluated, the following procedure should be followed by the operator: The operator of the establishment must design, document and implement an on-line sampling and examination program for boneless meat at a point close to where the product is placed into containers. endstream endobj startxref Samples for microbiological analysis must be taken to ensure that the process is in line with the specifications. (c) the requirements of the Act and these Regulations are met in respect of the registered establishment, equipment, food animals, meat products, ingredients, food additives, chemical agents, packaging and labelling materials, training and any other requirement of a control program set out in the. Our goal was to find the exact threshold for fresh to frozen meat ratio capable of controlling the meat temperature during processing, but without having an adverse effect on the sensory quality of minced pork. What are comminuted products? For the purpose of this monitoring plan a sample of at least 500g shall be taken randomly from the production lot. COMMINUTED MEAT. The total skin area of all sample units (up to 20) cannot exceed 25cm2 (i.e. Storage conditions must in accordance with. This program should outline specifications for the incoming ingredients. In either case, the operator's Control Programs must include procedures that address the build-up of product material on the equipment, to minimize cross contamination of product over time on a given production line. no fresh or frozen liquid egg is to leave the premises unless it is marked "Inedible egg - unfit for human consumption", as it does not meet federal or provincial requirements. Sausages in natural casings are only allowed as rework material in the preparation of equivalent meat products (i.e. immediately placed in a freezer and frozen within 48 hours of boning. Refer to section 4.5 for these requirements. Method of inoculation to be used: the inoculum must be added to the meat and mixed prior to the addition of the other ingredients or a starter culture to the meat mixture. The required outcome is to control the growth of microorganisms in the room or area used for the processing, packaging, labelling or handling of meat products. provide instructions to achieve a 6.5D or 7.0D reduction in Salmonellaspp.). (See. Annex G: The content of this Annex has been removed due to discontinuation of the starter culture review program. for the purposes of this chapter, in respect of a meat product intended for sale, use or consumption as an edible meat product in Canada, means containing an ingredient, food additive, poison, decomposed substance, visible contamination, any pathogenic microorganisms that are injurious to health or failing to meet the standards set out in Part I, Standards and Identification of Edible Meat Products of the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. foods that contain as ingredients foods from more than one food commodity. For current information visit Food. These meat products have been heated to improve their appearance or flavor but the process does not result in a ready-to-eat product. As the MSM is not labelled as "skinless", the amount of skin that may added is calculated for the 55kg of skinless pork trim only, which gives us an "x" value of 4.4kg (8% of 55kg). 1. The text will be the same size as the rest of the common name. Drying and aging rooms must be equipped with humidity recorders in order to prevent uncontrolled fluctuations of the relative humidity. Conclusion: Example 1 meets the guideline because its degree-hours are less than the limit. Operators should validate that their processes reduce the core temperature of products preserved by freezing, to a core temperature of -18C within a time frame allowing for the preservation of organoleptic and microbiological qualities. %%EOF qMZYVB.Duel ?Iny{3@ CA9#cs..;"Ds#UbA9LPRRm), AP]Jl*'$bf;QIT|sVEsJ{xwf0!3+:,RK`nefZV5+_)2$P{dhL~YibSTL?&~6%xN,uD=L7_?[ 99-&hq?Q.OZ[Ml-+X--sFAEPa{1{n1` Fk&c It takes 40 hours for the pH to reach 5.3. The instructions for use, maintenance and calibration of measurement devices and instruments must be included in the operator's prerequisite programs and HACCP system. . For example, a 3D reduction would destroy 99.9% of the organisms. 1 Nicholson, R., et al, Dry fermented sausage and Escherichia coliO157:H7. High pressure processing is an approved post-lethality, post-packaging intervention step for RTE meats for the control of Listeriaspp. The operator is required to maintain a listing of all of the packaging material used in the establishment. The operator must use one the following cooling schedules, appropriate to the product type, to cool all heat processed products in order to minimize growth of pathogenic bacteria in/on their products. MSM is an edible product obtained by removing muscle tissue attached to bones by the means of mechanical meat/bone separation equipment that contains: FTM is an edible product obtained by removing muscle tissue attached to bones by the means of mechanical meat/bone separation equipment that contains: FTM can be used in the preparation of ground meat or identified as ground meat when: The regulatory definition for MSM prohibits the use of any previously deboned meat as input material. These must include: If product is chemically acidified by addition of citric acid, gluconodelta-lactone or another chemical agent approved for this purpose, controls must be in place and records kept to ensure that a pH of 5.3 or lower is achieved by the end of the fermentation process. hAO05R8lH JdYmRMtP cXzlDg!C=Z`H^@b)Py{)``]S3:]RJ Examination results must be retained for a minimum of one year.
