Peracetic acid mixture (PAHP), which is a combination of peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide, has been approved as an antimicrobial for use in poultry chillers. To validate its effectiveness, 85 ppm of PAHP was compared with the 30-ppm chlorine treatment in a commercial setting. In this trial, 100 carcasses were sampled for Salmonella and Campylobacter spp. prior to chilling and 100 carcasses were sampled after chilling. In all, 400 carcasses were sampled using 85 ppm of PAHP in the chiller and 400 carcasses were sampled using the chlorine treatment. PAHP at 85 ppm reduced Salmonella-positive carcasses by 92% exiting the chiller, whereas treatment with 30 ppm of chlorine reduced Salmonella by 57%. Additionally, PAHP reduced Campylobacter species-positive carcasses exiting the chiller by 43% while chlorine resulted in a 13% reduction. These results suggest that peracetic acid in combination with hydrogen peroxide may be an effective antimicrobial in poultry chiller applications.
过氧乙酸混合物（PAHP）是过氧乙酸和过氧化氢的组合，已被批准作为一种抗菌剂用于家禽冷却器。为验证其有效性，在商业环境中将85 ppm的PAHP与30 ppm的氯处理进行了比较。在该试验中，100只屠体在冷却前采集沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌属样本，100只屠体在冷却后采集样本。总共，在冷却器中使用85 ppm的PAHP对400只屠体进行采样，使用氯处理对400只屠体进行采样。85 ppm的PAHP使离开冷却器的沙门氏菌阳性屠体减少了92%，而30 ppm的氯处理使沙门氏菌减少了57%。此外，PAHP使离开冷却器的弯曲杆菌属阳性屠体减少了43%，而氯处理使减少了13%。这些结果表明，过氧乙酸与过氧化氢的组合在禽肉冷却器应用中可能是一种有效的抗菌剂。
