animal byproducts and specified risk material Flashcards

1
Q

What are animal by products

A

An ABP is the entire body, part of an animal or a product of animal origin which is not intended for human consumption

Once material becomes ABP it cannot revert to being foodstuff

Q

What are the reasons for ABP control?

A

ABP are controlled to ensure:
- hygienic production of meat
- not in food chain
- human and animal health
- they are safely and suitably handled and disposed

Q

What are edible co-products

A

Edible Co-products are intended for human
consumption prior further processing:
- Fats
- Stomachs, bladders and intestines

Not treated/processed edible co-products mean they will become ABP

Animal By-products are not intended for human consumption

Q

What can cat 3 ABP be used for

A

Production of raw pet food only

Raw pet food contains certain cat 3 material which has not undergone any preserving process other than chilling/freezing

From:
- fir but not intended for human consumption
- Rejected at PM but not posing risk to animal/human health
- poultry heads that passed AM

Stored & transported at <7C

Labelled as pet food only during transport

Packaged to prevent leakage

Prevented from contamination throughout production until point of sale

Sampled for Salmonella spp & Enterobacteria

Q

Describe disposal routes for cat 1, 2 & 3

A

Category 1 (highest risk, includes SRM):
- approved incinerators, pressure sterilization followed by permanent marking and landfill, fuel combustion at approved combustion plant.
- Burial at authorized landfill (international waste only)

Category 2 ( high risk):
- as above plus
- After processing use as fertilizers and soil improvers or for fuel combustion or for cosmetics, medical devices and safe industrial technical uses
- manure to land, gut room waste to non-pasture land (no processing needed)

Category 3( low risk):
- as above plus
- pet food plants, technical plants (pharmaceutical), biogas plants and tanneries.

16
Q

Describe ABP storage

A

Leak-proof containers

Closely fitting lids

Labelled

Impervious, easy to clean and disinfect

Lidded and Separated from fit for human consumption products
Well maintained

17
Q

Describe ABP staining

A

Cat 1 containing SRM: a blue dye

Cat 2 and other Cat 1 (i.e. non containing SRM): a dye of any colour

ASAP

Properly prepared and applied

Avoiding contamination of fit for human consumption product

Derogations: Whole bodies of dead animals, Teaching/research material, dispute, OV inspection, blood, manure/digestive content etc.

18
Q

Describe ABP collection & transport

A

Labelled containers

Dispatched to approved premises for the ABP collected

Record keeping with all relevant information (weight/description/cat./destination/date/signature/…)

19
Q

Describe the enforcement of ABP

A

Inside the abattoir: FSA on behalf of Defra, Scottish Government and Welsh Government
( risk based enforcement: verbal, written, Statutory notices)

Outside the abattoir: Trading standards/APHA, but the OV must report them if they suspect a breach related to transport or destination

20
Q

What is SRM

A

Specified risk material (SRM) is those parts of cattle, sheep and goats that are most likely to pose a risk of infectivity if the animal from which it comes from was infected with a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) disease. It is essential, therefore, that it is removed from both the human and animal food chains and destroyed.(

21
Q

Describe SRM in cattle

A
22
Q

Describe vertebral column removal in cattle over 30 months (OTM) vs under 30 months (UTM)

A

OTM:
- RED stripe on label.
- VC removed only at authorised cutting plant.
- Required method of Operation (RMOP)/SOP in place.

UTM:
- No VC removal required.
- NO Red stripe label.
- NO Red stripe means VC doesn’t need to be removed.

For any carcase not identified, or lost, its ID will have to have VC removed (regardless of age)

23
Q

Describe age identification for cattle (for SRM)

A

Identification (Passports and ear tags)

Dentition (only useful for over 30 months old when 5 or more permanent
incisors erupted and passport says under 30 months)

Carcass labelling ( red stripe vs no red stripe)
Table of SRM tissues depending on the age

24
Q

Describe SRM in sheep & goats

A
25
Q

Describe age identification for sheep & goats (for SRM)

A

Identification through ear tags
(no passports and little info by FCI)

Dentition ( 1 permanent incisor=over 12months) (this might change!!)
SRM tissues table

26
Q

In what animals does TSE monitoring occur

A

Cattle for human consumption (HC).
Cattle not for HC.
Sheep & goats for HC.
Sheep & goats not for HC.
Infected flocks.

27
Q

Describe TSE legislation

A

EC 999/2001 (as amended) laying down law regarding monitoring, surveillance and eradication of TSEs.

TSE (England) (No. 2) Regs 2010.As amended

EC) 625/2017 and 627/2019(official controls).As amended

28
Q

What animals should you test for scrapie surveillance

A

Suspect scrapie cases (Scrapie and BSE are both NDs)

Over 18months old DOA/DIL sheep and goats in participating abattoirs

A random sample of over 18months old for human consumption sheep and goats( and have more than two permanent incisors)

29
Q

Describe scrapie testing

A
  1. FBO removes the head
  2. OV or fully trained MHI (by APHA generally) removes brain stem and cerebellum
  3. Send it to the TSE testing laboratory
30
Q

What animals (cattle) are tested for BSE

A
  • All cattle which die or are killed other than for human consumption (fallen stock) aged over 48 months. (or >24months non EU26)
  • All emergency slaughter animals
  • or animals found sick at ante mortem inspection or if signs of welfare has been compromised( observations ~accidents) aged over 48 months.
  • Animals born before 1st August 1996 ( disposed as Cat 1 and tested for BSE)
  • No sampling in UK or rest of EU healthy animals (Except Romania, Bulgaria).
  • Sampling for OTM (non EU26 and Romania and Bulgaria) healthy at slaughter
31
Q

Describe BSE testing in cattle in abattoirs

A

Animal segregation in lairage and killed last if possible

Brain stem taken by FBO.

FBO trained by APHA

Dispatched to laboratory.

Carcase & offal & other by products only released on receipt of a NEGATIVE test result.

Not health marked until then.

Retained securely until then.

TRACEABILITY (hide, sides, offal, ABP)

32
Q

Describe detention awaiting BSE results

A
  • All carcases and parts need to be stored under official control until the test results are known.
  • Kill order.
  • Sealed fridges or rails.
  • Sealed trailers or rooms.
  • Hides may leave site
    before test results provided
    a protocol has been agreed
    In between FSA-FBO(SOP)
