Fighting recurring microbial positives? Biofilm may be to blame. Stubborn or recurring pathogens are one of the most common threats to hygiene and health when it comes to food production. E. coli, Salmonella and Listeria can lurk in hard-to-sanitise areas like drains, cutting boards, slicers, mincing machines and cooling tunnels. Eliminating these pathogens is made […]
Uno de los conceptos erróneos más comunes acerca de las plantas orgánicas rodea donde se puede y no se puede utilizar compuestos Quat. La producción de alimentos ecológicos es un mercado en rápido crecimiento, con unas ventas de casi 48.000 millones de dólares solo en EE.UU. en 2019, según un estudio del sector. Si bien este mercado presenta características atractivas y una mayor confianza en los alimentos [...]
Actualmente está bien establecido que las bacterias, incluidos los patógenos transmitidos por los alimentos, crecen predominantemente en biopelículas, su hábitat natural. Las biopelículas están formadas por poblaciones densas, complejas y multiespecíficas de microorganismos que se adhieren irreversiblemente a una superficie o entre sí, y están incrustadas en una matriz polimérica extracelular autoproducida.

A Novel Approach ProvaStride’s patent-pending technology is truly unique. Using sodium percarbonate and tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED) our chemistry team created a powerful new powder formula that generates in-situ peracetic acid (PAA). Sodium percarbonate and TAED alone don’t have much efficacy against pathogens when used in small quantities, but together, when ambient moisture is present, they create […]
Four Ways Biofilm Impacts Operational Efficiency Biofilm is a major concern to the food industry. Its invisibility and therefore lack of easy detection on food and non-food contact surfaces often leaves food processors uncertain over its presence or absence — especially when an unexpected microbial problem strikes an operation. Addressing microbial positives can be one […]
