Résumé

Two microbiological sampling techniques, excision and sponge swabbing, were compared by determining counts of aerobic bacteria, coliforms and injured coliforms from 20 de-haired swine carcasses before and after chilling. Excised jowl skin produced significantly greater counts of the three types of bacteria than sponge swabs. Numbers of all bacteria present on the post-chill carcasses were substantially lower than on the pre-chill carcasses. The study indicates that the differences between sampling techniques may be a result of the chilling process of swine carcasses.
