Summary

An experiment was conducted to determine if rapid enumeration of populations of Pseudomonas fluorescens by standard methods and by measuring capacitance could be used to predict the potential shelf life of fresh broiler chicken. Details of experiments are given. The result is that enumeration of P. fluorescens from fresh chicken at day of processing should be beneficial because the potential shelf life of fresh chicken can be determined at day of processing; processing sanitation hygiene may be determined; and carcasses exposed to temperature abuse may be identified.
