Q

SSOP: Why we clean and sanitize?

A

Prevent batch to batch contamination
– Spoilage microbes will cause short shelf-life,
more returns, decreased customer satisfaction
– Pathogenic microbes leads to illness or death
– Allergens may cause illness or death
* Prevent growth of microbes
– Short shelf life, toxins, pathogens
* Prevent reduced equipment efficiency
– For example, fouled heat exchangers

27
Q

HACCP Principle 7

A

28
Q

Establishing Critical Limits (CL)

A

– Limits need to as rigorous as the applicable
regulations
– Use government guidance, if available
– Non-regulatory CL need scientific validation
– Choose the best CL parameters (easy, measurable)
– Consider operational limits to avoid deviations and corrective actions

29
Q

Establish Monitoring procedures

A

– Who
– What
– When
– Where
– How
– Frequency of monitoring is tied to amount of product to deal with after deviation
– Start with templates

30

61
Q

Chemical Sanitizers Application

A
  • Done immediately before processing, not
    necessarily after cleaning
