摘要:
Chicken shell eggs pasteurized in a water bath set at a temperature of no more that substantially about 133° F. (±0.5° F.) result in eggs having measured albumen turbidity normally less than 200 Nephelometric Turbidity Units.
摘要:
A shell egg pasteurization system uses radio frequency electromagnetic wave energy to heat the yolk. The radio frequency energy is applied in two stages as the shell egg is rotated and moved through the electric field. The system also has a preheating oven and a downstream albumen heating oven. The combination of heat from the ovens and the radio frequency is sufficient to achieve a 5 log kill of Salmonella Enteritidis throughout the eggs.
