EFFICIENCY OF SANITATION OF POULTRY HOUSES AND POULTRY PROCESSING PLANTS
Abstract
The article discusses the effectiveness of hygiene in poultry houses and poultry meat processing plants, which are critical aspects in ensuring the safety of poultry products. The study was carried out on a broiler farm and a poultry slaughter and processing plant. A 0,25 % solution (25 ml per 10 litres of water) of Brovadez Plus disinfectant was used for preventive disinfection in the presence of poultry, and a 0,5 % solution (50 ml per 10 litres of water) of Desan was used for routine disinfection during sanitary breaks. The water supply system was disinfected with a 0,2 % solution of Combiod. In the poultry slaughter and processing plant, a 0,25 % solution (25 ml per 10 litres of water) of Brovadez Plus and a 0,2 % solution of Combiod were used to disinfect equipment. The effectiveness of the hygiene measures was assessed by microbiological analysis of samples taken from surfaces in contact with broilers and poultry meat. The evaluation was carried out using traditional microbiological methods and the ATP bioluminescence method. The study included the determination of the total number of microorganisms, coliform bacteria and fungi. The results showed that mechanical cleaning prior to disinfection reduced the overall level of microbial contamination by an average of 84 % and the application of the proposed disinfection scheme ensured 99,9 % disinfection efficiency. The most difficult element of the equipment to disinfect was the hooks used to hang the carcasses, which required particularly thorough cleaning before treatment with disinfectants. The results confirm the effectiveness of the hygiene measures taken and highlight the need for regular monitoring of the cleanliness of production facilities. The introduction of modern disinfectants and combined approaches to hygiene can significantly reduce microbial contamination and ensure that poultry products meet food safety requirements.
