EXPERT RESEARCH OF MEAT AND MEAT PRODUCTS

Abstract

The article contains research results of quality and safety of meat and sausages of Ukrainian producers on organoleptic, physical-chemical and microbiological parameters. We analysed basic parameters of safety products that are sold in the trading network. The results studies found the main causes of non-compliance under the current standards – a measure of total microbial contamination (MAFAM) and excess amounts of E. coli bacteria, indicating a violation of technological regimes and hygiene requirements of production, storage, transport and sale.
