    Notes: This article summarizes a quantitative microbial risk assessment designed to characterize the public health impact of consumption of shell eggs and egg products contaminated with Salmonella Enteritidis (SE). This risk assessment's objectives were to: (1) establish the baseline risk of foodborne illness from SE, (2) identify and evaluate potential risk mitigation strategies, and (3) identify data gaps related to future research efforts. The risk assessment model has five modules. The Egg Production module estimates the number of eggs produced that are SE-contaminated. Shell Egg Processing, Egg Products Processing, and Preparation & Consumption modules estimate the increase or decrease in the numbers of SE organisms in eggs or egg products as they pass through storage, transportation, processing, and preparation. A Public Health Outcomes module then calculates the incidence of illnesses and four clinical outcomes, as well as the cases of reactive arthritis associated with SE infection following consumption. The baseline model estimates an average production of 2.3 million SE-contaminated shell eggs/year of the estimated 69 billion produced annually and predicts an average of 661,633, human illnesses per year from consumption of these eggs. The model estimates ≈ 94% of these cases recover without medical care, 5% visit a physician, an additional 0.5% are hospitalized, and 0.05% result in death. The contribution of SE from commercially pasteurized egg products was estimated to be negligible. Five mitigation scenarios were selected for comparison of their individual and combined effects on the number of human illnesses. Results suggest that mitigation in only one segment of the farm-to-table continuum will be less effective than several applied in different segments. Key data gaps and areas for future research include the epidemiology of SE on farms, the bacteriology of SE in eggs, human behavior in food handling and preparation, and human responses to SE exposure.

    Notes: Previous modeling studies in broth cultures demonstrated that acidity and nitrite increased the inactivation rate of Listeria monocytogenes. To validate this effect during storage of simulated uncooked-fermented meat products, lean beef was ground with salt, adjusted to pH 4.0–5.1, and treated with nitrite at 0–300 μg/mL. Samples were immediately inoculated with L. monocytogenes (107 CFU/g) and survivors were enumerated over 21 days storage at 37°C. The time to achieve a four log decline as greatly affected by pH, ranging from 21 days at pH 5.0 to 〈 1.0 day at pH 4.0. Growth occurred at pH 5.1 after a long lag period. Nitrite additions did not affect survival, suggesting that the effective concentration was the rapidly decreasing residual nitrite level.

    Notes: Cooked corned beef made with normal (ca.2.5%) or a reduced (ca.1.5%) level of salt were inoculated with either clostridial spores or with staphylococci and incubated at temperatures ranging from 5 - 30°C. Growth of indigenous microflora, staphylococci, or clostridia was similar at both salt levels at a given incubation temperature. However, increasing the abuse temperature greatly increased the growth of all organisms. Outgrowth of clostridial spores occurred in ground cooked corned beef which contained the normal residual nitrite of 40 - 45 ppm; readdition of nitrite to 150 ppm at the time of inoculation markedly reduced growth. Gas production was not a good indicator of clostridial growth.

    Notes: One side from each of eleven lamb carcasses was electrically stimulated (60 Herz alternating current at 240v followed by 420v) within 45 min postmortem. Three carcasses (stimulated and respective control sides) were rapidly chilled (1°C), three carcasses received a delayed chill (12°C until pH 6.0 was attained, then excision and 1°C), and three carcasses were slowly chilled (12°C). Measurements beginning at 44 hr postmortem showed that stimulation increased the sarcomere lengths but had few consistent or significant effects on water-holding capacity, protein solubility, emulsifying capacity, gel strength, cooking loss, or binding strength. The remaining two carcasses were rapidly chilled and their meat was manufactured into frankfurters. The emulsion stability was slightly improved by stimulation but smokehouse weight loss, Warner-Bratzler shear force, penetration force, cooking loss, and sensory characteristics were unaffected.

    Notes: SUMMARY —Excised pectoralis muscles of chicken received radurizing doses of γ-radiation at varying times post-mortem to determine the effect on shear resistance, myofibrillar fragmentation (F-ratio) and pH. Irradiation doses between 0.1 and 0.3 Mrad produced decreases in F-ratio and increases in shear resistance. The magnitude of the changes was directly proportional to the duration of postmortem aging prior to irradiation. Muscle pH subsequent to irradiation between 2 and 12 hr post-mortem was not significantly affected by any of the dose-time treatment combinations. Shear resistance and F-ratio changes were strongly correlated on an average basis (r =+ .857; n = 6) but not on an individual sample basis.

    Notes: A detailed examination of fat emulsification and water-binding capacities in frankfurter batters and the cooked batters' textural responses to lowered levels of added sodium chloride was conducted. In response surface analyses of water and fat exudations and gel strength with varying compositions of fat, water, meat, and salt, the area of maximum stability decreased and moved toward a higher fat content when the salt was reduced from 2.5 to 1.5%. Gel strength increased with increasing content of lean meat and decreased with lowered salt levels. When salt, pH, chopping temperature, and cooking temperature were varied from the standard conditions, water exudate was generally affected first and most intensely while the gel strength was second. Fat release did not occur until more extreme conditions were encountered.

    Notes: Reducing the added salt levels in frankfurter batters from 2.5 to 1.5% decreased water binding aoilities. Gel strength was less affected and fat release least affected. Tripolyphosphate and pyrophosphate were very effective at levels of 0.1% in restoring the water binding and gel strength. The effectiveness of these phosphates was nearly identical although they have opposing effects on batter pH. Soy isolate and rennet-treated, calcium-reduced dried skim milk improved the batters when added at 1 and 3%. Additions of alginate or especially xanthan gums (0.1-0.3%) improved the water binding but were very detrimental to the gel strength.

    Notes: Meat emulsions or batters made with a retail food processor were compared to batters produced by three commercial machines (silent cutter, Schnellkutter, and emulsifier) and two laboratory machines (small size cutter and blender) for suitability in laboratory studies. Batters were evaluated for post-heating fat losses and smokehouse water losses. Stabilities of the finished frankfurters were evaluated by severe cooking weight changes, penetration forces, fat droplet sizes, and sensory qualities. The food processor was comparable to the other machines for producing high quality batters and had the advantage of being inexpensive, economical with ingredients, and time-saving.

    Notes: Frankfurters were made with 100%, 80%, and 60% of the normal 2.5% added NaCl, plus 150 ppm NaNO2 and 430 ppm ascorbate. They were either untreated or inoculated with Staphylococcus aureus or Clostridium sporogenes and incubated at a moderate abuse temperature of 11°C for up to 11 days. A slightly more rapid growth of the natural flora was noted in the frankfurters containing 60% of the normal salt compared to those containing higher levels of salt. No outgrowth of clostridial spores occurred in any inoculated sample. Staphylococcal growth was slow and inconsistent, with no effect related to salt levels. Incubating frankfurters at higher tern. peratures showed that abuse temperature had a greater effect on total aerobic and staphylococcal growth than did the salt levels tested.
