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. The operator is required to ensure that any packaging material that is used in the sale of food products will not impart any undesirable substance to the meat product, either chemically, physically or microbiologically and must protect them sufficiently to avoid contamination. Fermented products which do not meet these requirements must be labelled with a refrigeration statement. Although aw measurement is mandatory only for shelf stable products, it is strongly recommended that the operator determine the aw values achieved for each product type they manufacture and for each production line. A shorter length may be used as long as the length is approximately twice the diameter of the stuffed casing. Under this option, it is not required to test for E.coliO157:H7. Under this sampling plan the operator must test each lot for calcium, protein and bone particle until 10 consecutive lots are in compliance. a shipment or part of a shipment of boneless manufacturing meat derived from a single species going to a single destination; or. a point in a process at which control is to be applied in order to prevent or eliminate a hazard or reduce a hazard to an acceptable level, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. the minimum or maximum value to which a hazard must be controlled at a critical control point to prevent or eliminate the hazard or reduce it to an acceptable level, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. in respect of an edible meat product, that salt together with at least 100 parts per million (ppm), but not more than 200ppm, of sodium nitrite, potassium nitrite, sodium nitrate or potassium nitrate, or any combination thereof, except in the case of side bacon, where the maximum is 120ppm, calculated prior to any smoking, cooking or fermentation. means to lower the temperature of a meat product to, and to maintain the temperature at, 4C or lower, but does not include to freeze, as per the Meat Inspection Regulations, 1990. the ability of a given heating process to kill bacteria. The operator must ensure, through the establishment's mandatory Prerequisite Programs and HACCP Plan (Control Programs) that these regulatory requirements are met. Number of replicates: a minimum of three replicates of the study should be performed. If the shift is 8 hours (480 minutes) sampling must be done every 24 minutes (480/20 = 24 minutes). (1) Subject to subsection (2) and section 121, no meat product shall be identified as edible unless, 22.1. Where the manufacturing process does not correspond to one of the processes set out under options 1, 2 or 4 of this section and has not been assessed in accordance with option 5 of this section, the operator is required to test and hold each production lot pending satisfactory results. The chilling process must be monitored to demonstrate that each lot complies with the validated established cooling schedules. Degrees above 15.6C: 24C - 15.6C = 8.4C Hours to reach pH of 5.3: 10 Degree-hours calculation: (8.4C) x (10) = 84 degree-hours, Degrees above 15.6C: 30C - 15.6C = 14.4C Hours to reach pH of 5.3: 10 Degree-hours calculation: (14.4C) x (10) = 144 degree-hours, Degrees above 15.6C: 35C - 15.6C = 19.4C Hours to reach pH of 5.3: 15 Degree-hours calculation: (19.4C) x (15) = 291 degree-hours, Degree-hours calculation for the entire fermentation process = 84 + 144 + 291 = 519, The corresponding degree-hour limit = 555 (between 33C and 37C). It takes 35 hours for product to reach a pH of 5.3 or less. The operator must include in the establishment's control program for raw meat derived from any species, a monitoring program for incoming products, destined for cutting, boning, slicing or dicing, as a fresh meat product. Once this has been established, frequent regular checks should be made. The temperature and duration of the cooking process for heat treated meat products should be such that the heat treatment alone or in combination with other preserving processes is sufficient to destroy pathogens and toxins. Processing rooms (cutting and boning, formulation rooms, kitchens, packaging, etc.) Non-pathogens include Pseudomonas species which predominate on the exposed surface of chilled meat and Laaobacilli on vacuum-packed meat. End product sampling for Clostridium perfringens (viable cells) can be done as an additional safety measure but is not sufficient on its own. Until such confirmation is received, the operator must manufacture product in accordance to one of the other 4 options outlined in this section. Alternative temperature control measures must provide the same or better outcome. Conclusion: Example 1 meets the guideline because its degree-hours are less than the limit. Where applicable, packages treated with high pressure processing require refrigeration. The operator must have a program in place to assess the incoming product. Stuffing product into casings: Inoculated product should be stuffed into casing as usual to approximate normal production procedures. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to high protein puffed snack products including soy protein materials and protein from meat, meat by-products, or dehydrated meat . The tested lots may move freely prior to receipt of the laboratory report. Records of test results must be kept for a minimum of 24 months beyond the release date of the product. temperature of shell eggs and processed egg must be maintained at 4. Examples include sausages, hot dogs, etc. 36. Alternatively if their manufacturing process achieves a 2D reduction of E.coliO157:H7 they may be able to manufacture product according to the requirements of Option 4 (e.g., HACCP system and testing of raw batter). (d) in all other respects, inspection programs or examination programs, as the case may be, are operated in accordance with the Act and these Regulations. Combo bins cannot not be stored, assembled and/or filled directly on the floor. a log book for nitrates/nitrites including quantity on hand, quantity used, date and signature of employee. The pressure is released and the treated containers are packed and ready for shipping. There are no mandatory labelling requirements associated with the use of high pressure processing. 6288 0 obj <>stream composition, for certain meat and poultry products. The rejected product must be reworked and resubmitted for sampling, returned to the originator, or treated as inedible product. 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 example, skin-on necks which have attached neck skin can be used to make MSM but necks to which flaps of breast or back skin have been left attached cannot be used. Therefore, total number of samples for microbiological analysis: Time zero (0) = 2 After fermentation = 0 During drying = 0 End drying = 2 Total = 4 Number of replicates x 3 Total samples = 12. %PDF-1.6 % hLj0_o8IJP The corresponding degree-hours limit (less than 33C) is 665 degree-hours. !gf)\)gQY>s OkHBPkqy6E&n! A notice in the Federal Register about last minute modifications that impact a previously announced advisory committee meeting cannot always be published quickly enough to provide timely notice. Ground or emulsified trimmings may be injected in a quantity of up to 15% of the fresh weight at the time of formulation without having to be declared on the label. It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that all the ingredients and components of the rework material are permitted in the meat product to which they are added. 1 log10 reduction = a tenfold reduction (1 x 101) = a 1D reduction 2 log10 reduction = a hundredfold reduction (1 x 102) = a 2D reduction 3 log10 reduction = a thousandfold reduction (1 x 103) = a 3D reduction etc. Packaging materials used for this purpose must be specifically designed to withstand the pasteurization process. In determining whether a requirement is necessary, appropriate, adequate, or sufficient to achieve the objectives of the Regulations, account should be taken of the nature of the operation/activity and of its intended use. endstream endobj 6290 0 obj <>stream 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. The accuracy of these must be checked periodically against a mercury thermometer. The operator must prevent leakage. The bottom of the container cannot have drainage holes or perforations. This gives us the following final recipe: 50.6kg of skinless pork trim + 4.4kg of pork skin 23kg of pork MSM without skin + 2kg of pork skin 20kg of water. Mechanical meat/bone separation equipment operates by using mechanical pressure to separate muscle tissue from the attached bones. 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. Packaging materials, including gases, must be listed in the Reference Listing of Accepted Construction Materials, Packaging Materials and Non-Food Chemical Products. 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. The sample plan must be representative of the lot. For example, in comminuted meats, the ability of a muscle 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. Most common food-poisoning bacteria can grow from 0C up to 54C; however, their range of rapid growth is from 27C to 54C. no more than 0.027% of calcium for every 1% of protein; it has a minimum protein content of 14%; and, bones emerging from separation equipment must be essentially intact and recognizable to assure that the bones are not being crushed, ground or pulverized; and, it complies with the standards set out within Schedule. Smoke racks (trees) and the interiors of smokehouses must be adequately cleaned to prevent the contamination of meat products with soot. The lid must be adequately designed to prevent contamination of the product. The washing and rinsing must ensure that the containers are visibly clean. The use of a non-inhibitory, food grade, green dye added to the inoculum may aid in determining the uniform distribution of inoculum. If the cumulative number of defects found is equal to or greater than 5, the lot must be rejected. Samples for microbiological analysis must be taken to ensure that the process is in line with the specifications. The effects of dietary fiber addition on the water distribution, water binding capacity (WBC), and textural properties of a fat-reduced model meat system enriched with inulin, cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), chitosan, pectin, respectively, were investigated in this study. If the operator chooses to use methods for the control programs, other than those outlined above, these must be evaluated by the CFIA to ensure that they reach the same outcome, taking into account volume of production. The operator is required to implement a microbiological testing program for E.coli0157 and Salmonella as a verification procedure for their process. The supporting documentation and evaluation must be kept in file by the CFIA. For production specifications please consult Chapter 15 of the MOP. Examples include: cured, cooked ham; cured, cooked pork shoulder; canned chicken meat; meat pieces boiled in soy sauce (tsukudani); pre-grilled beef patties; foie gras and pates; brawn and head cheese; cooked, cured chopped meat; chopped meat boiled in soy sauce (tsukudani); canned corned beef; luncheon meats; meat pastes; cooked meat patties; Restricted non-meat food products are described in Division 16 of the Food and Drug Regulations. For example, a 3D reduction would destroy 99.9% of the organisms. Smoked sausages should be smoked with only hardwood or non-resinous material. As dried beef products may pose a hazard associated with E.coliO157:H7, these products must be submitted to a heat treatment before the drying process. If kept hot, cooked meat products should always be kept at 60C or above. Subjects. %PDF-1.6 % If a dehydrated product that is not cooked is sold as shelf-stable (i.e., there is no "keep refrigerated" statement), it has to meet the same applicable controls as shelf-stable fermented meat products (see section 4.16.3). STEP 3: FULLY COOKED (page 2 of 3) YES = FULLY COOKED MEAT + NONMEAT MULTICOMPONENT PRODUCT NO 3E. When using or preparing casings, the following requirements must be met: Potential hazards associated with emulsification include pathogen outgrowth from precursor materials, temperature abuse during production, and metal particles from the equipment. 1. In normal conditions, Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxins are not produced below aw 0.86, although in vacuum packed products this is unlikely below aw 0.89. Cooling regimens for meat products should result in no more than a 1-log CFU/g increase of C. perfringens and no growth of C. botulinum. In order to be released, all tests must be negative for the presence of. The formation of ice concentrates the dissolved solutes and reduces the water activity of the meat product. The operator may justify his choice under the procedures based on the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) principles or under the operational procedures of a registered establishment. The manufacturing process must allow an extra 5 seconds of dwell time to compensate for measurement error. Kidneys and lungs must be removed from poultry carcasses and portions prior to their use as material for mechanical separation. For the purpose of this monitoring plan a sample of at least 500g shall be taken randomly from the production lot. The drying chamber/room must be equipped with a shatter resistant indicating thermometer (or equivalent), with graduations of 1. Once a pH of 5.3 is reached, Staphylococcus aureus multiplication and toxin production are stopped. If the cumulative number of defects found is equal to or less than 4, the lot is acceptable for mechanical separation.
