Opis (eng)

Process hygiene in slaughterhouses plays a key role in ensuring product safety and protecting the health of both workers and final consumers. A three-year monitoring was conducted in one slaughterhouse in Serbia, using non-destructive sampling and testing according to microbiological criteria for total viable count (TVC), Enterobacteriaceae (EC), and the presence of Salmonella spp. The results showed that all TVC and EC values were below the prescribed m and M limits, while Salmonella spp. was detected in two samples. These findings highlight the need for continuous monitoring. Only consistent implementation of selfcontrol measures, application of the HACCP system, and ongoing staff training can ensure meat safety and protect public health. This study emphasizes that properly applied hygiene measures can significantly reduce the risk of microbiological contamination of meat.
