Under ideal conditions, some bacteria can double in number every 15-30 minutes. This rapid multiplication can lead to significant contamination in a short period. It's summed up in the Bacterial Growth Curve: 1. Lag Phase: No increase in number of living bacterial cells. 2. Log Phase: Exponential growth phase where bacteria divide rapidly. 3. Stationary Phase: Plateau in number of living cells; rate of cell division and death roughly equal. 4. Death Phase: Decline in the number of viable bacteria as conditions become unfavorable. The longer food remains in the “Danger Zone” (40°F – 140°F), the higher the risk of bacterial growth and contamination. > After cooking, food should be cooled quickly to below 40°F to minimize time in the Danger Zone. > Keep cooked food at or above 140°F to prevent bacterial growth.

Do you know how often #FSMA requires reanalysis of your food safety plan as a whole? A) Every year B) Every two years C) Every three years D) Every four years 21 CFR 117.70 mandates that the food safety plan be reanalyzed at least once every three years. However, this reanalysis should be done more frequently if there are changes that might affect the food safety plan or when a significant issue arises, such as… > New information about potential hazards associated with a food. > Unanticipated food safety problems. > Changes in the formulation or process. > Changes in the production environment.

The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in our overall health, impacting everything from digestion to immunity. Did you know: 1. The gut microbiome consists of trillions of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. 2. The gut microbiome can influence brain function and mood through the gut-brain axis. 3. About 70% of the immune system is located in the gut, making the microbiome essential for immune function. 4. An imbalance in the gut microbiome is associated with chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and inflammatory bowel disease. Learn more about the fascinating world of the gut microbiome and its importance to our health in our latest blog post: https://hubs.ly/Q02FCWsD0 #GutHealth #Microbiome #HealthScience
