مستخلص: Organic acids are applied to poultry carcasses during processing to reduce foodborne pathogens and spoilage microorganisms. Scald water surfactant agents employed to improve feather removal may enhance the efficacy of organic acids during processing. This study investigated the effects of concurrent application of a scald water surfactant and organic acid dip on microbial contamination of carcasses processed in a small-scale production model. Broilers were reared in litter floor pens to 47 d of age and slaughtered using standard practices. Carcasses were scalded in either control or surfactant scald water initially and dipped in either a 2% organic acid blend or water after feather removal to complete a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement with n = 15 carcasses per treatment group. The commercially available scald water additive was a slightly alkaline surfactant solution labelled as a feather removal aid. The organic acid dip consisting of lactic and citric acid was maintained at pH of 2.5. Approximately 10 g of neck skin was collected 1-min postdipping and placed in buffered peptone water with an added neutralizing agent, sodium thiosulfate. Serial dilutions were performed to determine general coliform (GC), E. coli (EC), and aerobic plate (APC) counts as CFU per gram of skin sample. A significant 0.61, 0.76, and 1.6 log reduction of GC, EC, and APC, respectively, was attributed to use of the organic acid carcass dip (P ≤ 0.01). There were no significant differences in carcass microbial reduction due to surfactant scald water alone. A 0.69, 0.73 (P ≤ 0.05), and 1.96 log reduction of GC, EC, and APC, respectively, was observed in surfactant-scalded, acid-dipped carcasses compared to water-scalded, water-dipped control groups. These data demonstrated that a surfactant scald water additive and an organic acid carcass dip can have beneficial effects of microbial reduction when employed simultaneously during broiler processing.
