Abstract

In previous paper, contaminations of food-borne pathogenic bacteria of Saengshik was found to occur during processing, because detection rates of food-borne pathogenic bacteria in final products were higher than those of raw materials. In this study, methods to reduce food-borne pathogenic bacteria and improved manufacturing process were developed for microbial safety of Saengshik. Food-borne pathogenic bacteria in raw materials were reduced to about 0.5-2.0 log cfu/g when seven kinds of raw materials were washed with electrolyzed water and ozonated water, but food-borne pathogenic bacteria could not be removed completely. After improvement of manufacturing process, numbers of food-borne pathogenic bacteria were same or decreased to levels of raw materials. Gaseous ozone and Biocon could control air-borne bacteria under $1{\times}10^1$ cfu/1000 L of air in pulverization and mixing rooms.

생식제품 및 제조 공정 중 위해 미생물의 제어 및 저감화를 위하여 제조공정을 개선하고 전해수, 오존수 등 살균효과에 대하여 조사하였다. 7가지의 위해미생물 오염도가 높은 생식원료에 대한 전해수의 살균효과가 차아염소산소다수 또는 오존수에 비하여 전체적으로 강한 것으로 나타났으며 오존수의 살균효과는 차아염소산소다수와 비슷하거나 다소 강한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 전해수나 오존수를 이용하여 생식원료를 세정, 살균하여도 원료의 종류에 따라 살균효과에 차이가 있으며, 비 가열가공이라는 생식의 특성상 원료에서 검출되는 위해미생물은 최종제품까지 생잔할 가능성이 높기 때문에, 각 원료에 따른 살균처리지침을 위한 database 축적이 요구된다. 한편 모델공장을 선택하여 공장위생, 종업원 개인위생 및 제조공정을 개선한 후 공정개선의 미생물학적 효과를 조사한 결과 공정개선 전에는 원료에서 보다 최종제품에서 위해미생물의 수가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으나, 공정개선 후에는 원료의 균수를 그대로 유지하거나, 감소하였으며 외주 원료의 혼합으로 인하여 위해미생물의 균수가 증가하였다. 따라서 생식의 제조공정에서 위해미생물을 저감화를 위해서는 외주 원료의 철저한 위생관리가 요구되며, 전해수 오존수 등을 이용한 원료의 비가열 세정살균과 지속적이고 위생적인 공정관리가 이루어진다면 위해 미생물의 균수를 저감화할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
