Operational Group: Definition of strategies for the reduction of microbial contamination in meat products
Scope
The main objective of this Operational Group is to define possible strategies to modify the materials currently used in the meat industry, giving them bacteriostatic and / or biofilm growth inhibition properties. To this end, potential active antimicrobial materials will be evaluated and their integration in some of the materials usually present in the industry (stainless steel and Teflon-type polymers) will be studied.
The aim of the project is to reduce the risks of bacterial contamination existing in the meat industry and increase the shelf life of the products.
