Dairy Food Processing - Case Study
Challenges Bluegrass has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to bacteria in its production facilities. The company has tried several other solutions and processes, but consistently had to spray several times, sometimes with multiple different products, to get full kill rates for Salmonella and Listeria bacteria. The drains were particularly susceptible to contamination and had to be treated ...

Incorporating ROS in Ice-Making Machines Extends Shipping Shelf Life of Produce, Seafood and Meat Products
M&R farms in Birmingham, Minnesota uses JC 9465 as a primary solution for their packing facility. They have also incorporated JC 9465 into their ice-making machines improving product shelf-life as well as eliminating biofilm. By injecting JC 9465 into their water lines supplying the ice machines, the ORP readings went up from 451 to 632. Once it had been converted to ice, the readings had ...

Mineral Oxychloride to rescue citrus market in Florida
Since 2019 over 75% of the citrus crops (oranges 75% and grapefruit 85%) has been lost due to an infectious bacterium called huanglongbing (HLB) commonly known as “citrus greening”. Leaves of newly affected trees developed blotchy mottle appearance and the fruit is of no value-it has limited use in juicing operation. As of today, there has not being a commercially available solution ...

Antibiotic resistant bacterial profiles of anaerobic swine lagoon effluent
Received for publication November 3, 2008. Although land application of swine (Sus scrofa) manure lagoon effluent is a common and effective method of disposal, the presence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, both pathogenic and commensal can complicate already understood issues associated with its safe disposal. The aim of this study was to assess antibiotic resistance in swine lagoon bacteria ...

R2 for mitigating the risk of PEDV, PRRSV and SVA - contaminated feed using an animal challenge model - Case Study
Introduction The porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) epidemic in 2013 - 2014 caused high morbidity and mortality for hog farmers throughout North America. Animal feed was identified at that time as a risk factor and one of the potential vehicles to spread the viral disease. Feed Energy's R2 line of products delivers essential nutrients to the animal through the feed source and has proven to ...

Characterization of selected nutrients and bacteria from anaerobic swine manure lagoons on sow, nursery, and finisher farms in the Mid-South USA
Received for publication October 31, 2008. Swine (Sus scrofa domestica) production in the Mid-South USA comprises sow, nursery, and finisher farms. A 2007 packing plant closure started a regional shift from finisher to sow and nursery farms. Changes in manure stored in lagoons and land-applied as fertilizer were expected but were unknown because nutrient and bacterial levels had not been ...

Monochloramine versus sodium hypochlorite as antimicrobial agents for reducing populations of bacteria on broiler chicken carcasses
Studies were conducted to compare the effect of sodium hypochlorite (SH) versus monochloramine (MON) on bacterial populations associated with broiler chicken carcasses. In study 1, nominal populations (6.5 to 7.5 log CFU) of Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Salmonella serovars, Shewanella putrefaciens, and Staphylococcus aureus were exposed to sterilized chiller ...
