Maintaining safety in the cold chain.
Author(s) : BØGH-SØRENSEN L.
Type of excerpt: Book chapter
Summary
The paper explains that the microbiology of frozen foods is not very different from chilled food microbiology. But micro-organisms do not grow in frozen food as long as the product remains in the frozen state. As for chilled food, manufacturers should use the HACCP system, mainly before freezing, and when thawing the product. More experiments have to be made in the field of bacterial development after thawing.
