Episode Synopsis

In Ep. 53 of MeatingPod, we're talking a novel approach for pathogen control and food safety management in poultry processing with Juanfra De Villena, director of quality assurance and food safety at Wayne Farms. Juanfra talks about his research with Dr. Marcos Plata-Sanchez at Texas Tech University, which uses biomapping and other techniques to better characterize the efficacy of traditional pathogen interventions. The work resulted in some interesting findings about the prevalence of salmonella and campylobacter as a measure, as well as the impact of line speeds on pathogen control.
