Summary

Cross contamination experiences with Listeria innocua and Escherichia coli O157 were performed during liquid immersion liquid nitrogen freezing. Bacterial counts in different conditions were examined. Results demonstrate that bacterial cross-contamination of meat during liquid nitrogen immersion freezing can occur but indicate that the use of good sanitation practices and products with low microbial numbers can limit this occurence.
