Sažetak
Yersinia enterocolitica is a pathogenic bacteria of public health relevance in pork meat production. This study evaluated the growth potential of Y. enterocolitica O:3 isolated from pig´s tonsils in minced meat stored aerobically at 4 °C and 10 °C. Y. enterocolitica was determined using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and inoculated to pork at a level of 3 log CFU/g. After the first day of storage, the pathogen count in minced meat at 4 °C and 10 °C was 0.4 log and 1.2 log higher, respectively (P<0.05). On the second day of storage, the increase of the population was 0.7 and 1.71 log (P<0.05). At the end of storage, the Yersinia count in samples stored at 4 °C was 2.72 log higher than the initial population, while in samples stored at 10 °C it was 4.46 log higher. These results indicate the importance of implementing good hygiene practices in slaughter processing and production of minced pork, since cooling at the usual temperatures does not prevent the growth of the pathogenic Y. enterocolitica.
