The effect of cold chain disruption on the microbiological profile of chilled chicken meat

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: . It was more commonly detected in chicken legs (255 of 630; 40.5%) than chicken breasts (147 of 630; 23.3%) but was not related to exposure temperature, exposure time, or time until examination. The presence of Salmonella spp. was not detected in any of the samples. Data acquired in the presented study will be used in the development of software helping the national supervisory authorities in the Czech Republic to evaluate whether inadequate transport of samples to analytical laboratories could have affected the microbiological profile of the sample.
