Results of extraordinary inspection of packaged fresh chilled poultry for determination of salmonella

02/15/2012
 
At the end of the last year, the Czech Agriculture and Food Inspection Authority carried out an extraordinary inspection of packaged fresh chilled poultry. The aim of the inspection was to find out possible presence of salmonella, especially dangerous serotypes Salmonella Enteritidi and Salmonella Typhimurium in chilled poultry meat, which is in direct contact with consumers on the market. In addition to that, the inspection was also initiated as a response to the amendment of the Commission Regulation (EC) No. 2073/2005 on microbiological criteria for foodstuffs which came into force on 1st December 2011.
The samples were taken from the commodity of domestic and foreign origin too.

All of 30 officially taken and laboratory analysed samples were evaluated as complying with the above mentioned Regulation. The dangerous “serotypes” of salmonella were not present in the tested commodity.
