Sažetak
Meat processing in the world has undergone a significant development in recent years. A large number of different meat products are now commercially available and among them sausages have a significant market share. In spite of versatile technological improvements and the introduction of modern approaches of inspection and control (GMP, HACCP, etc.) there are still various possibilities of contamination and finding of pathogens in finished products. Therefore, a study was carried out with the aim of investigating the effect of technological production process. In total 965 swabs were collected from 5 slaughterhouses and 837 samples of sausages were analysed. 14.30% of swabs (138 samples) were not in compliance with the Book of rules on standards of microbiological purity (Official Gazette of the Republic of Croatia, No. 46/94). Also, 6.09% (51 samples) of sausages were found not to comply with the Book of Rules on microbiological standards for food products (40/2001). A majority of incorrect swabs and bacteriologically inadequate sausages were found in one particular production plant. Bacteriologically incorrect sausages had an increased total count of aerobic mesophilic bacteria. No pathogens responsible for bacterial infections and intoxication were found in any of analysed samples. The obtained results show that sanitation measures and hygienic conditions of production have a great influence on hygienic quality and health quality of sausages.
