Eggs are widely utilized because of their high nutrient value, coagulating, foaming, emulsifying and sometimes even colouring or flavouring facilities in food manufacturing. Production of processed egg products shows an increasing trend. Frozen products belong to first processing, their shelf life can increase up to 1 year. By freezing, a large reduction in microbial loss can be achieved. But different undesirable processes can occur. The effect of freezing on animal cells is highly dependent on freezing parameters. It has a different effect on egg subtituents. Egg yolk undergoes a gelation process while proteins can denaturate. In our study pasteurized liquid egg products (liquid egg white, liquid egg yolk and liquid whole egg) were frozen by dripping into liquid nitrogen. After that, a 14-day frozen storage experiment was carried out at -18°C. Before freezing and on the 1th, 7th and 14th days of storage experiment pH, dry matter content, colour and calorimetric properties (denaturation temperatures and enthalpy of denaturation) with differential scanning calorimetry were tested. For statistical analysis, one-way ANOVA (α = 0.05) was employed. In our experiment, we found no significant change in calorimetric properties of liquid egg white after freezing, but significant decreasing of enthalpy and denaturation temperatures of liquid egg yolk and liquid whole egg was identified. In contrast, frozen storage had a decreasing effect in all these products. Freezing caused a clearly visible colour change in LEW, a visible change in colour of LWE and a very clearly visible change in colour of LEY. In case of LEW and LEY changes increased to clearly visible 14 days. In conclusion, our results show that frozen storage had a greater effect on liquid egg products properties than freezing in liquid nitrogen.

Salmonella growth in egg and egg products has been widely studied, but there are still some aspects that are not fully known. The objective of this work was to study the influence of the initial cell number on the growth fitness of Salmonella Enteritidis in raw and pasteurized egg products. Growth curves of five Salmonella Enteritidis strains in raw and pasteurized egg products, starting from different initial numbers, were obtained and fitted to the Baranyi and Roberts model. The results revealed that lower initial numbers led to longer lag phases (λ) and lower maximum specific growth rates (μmax) in raw liquid whole egg. Similar results were observed in raw egg white (except for one strain). Conversely, no influence (p > 0.05) of the initial concentration on Salmonella growth parameters in raw egg yolk was observed. On the other hand, no influence of the initial number of cells on Salmonella growth fitness in commercial pasteurized liquid whole egg was observed. The results obtained demonstrate that the disappearance of this initial-dose dependency phenomenon was dependent on the intensity of the thermal treatment applied. Finally, the influence of the initial number was, in general, lower in pasteurized than in raw egg white, but large differences among strains were observed.

Samples of unpasteurized liquid egg (whole egg, egg yolk, and egg white) and pasteurized liquid whole egg were collected from egg-breaking facilities in Japan and were tested for the presence of Campylobacter. Isolates recovered were tested for freeze-thaw response, sensitivity to antimicrobials, and heat resistance. Campylobacter was isolated from 27.9% of unpasteurized liquid whole egg samples and 36.0% of unpasteurized liquid egg yolk samples. No Campylobacter was isolated from unpasteurized liquid egg white or pasteurized liquid whole egg samples. The contamination levels of Campylobacter ranged from <3 to 240/100 ml. Freeze-thaw response was tested by freezing and thawing liquid whole egg and egg yolk to examine whether those conditions influenced the survival rate. It was shown that freezing and thawing reduced Campylobacter counts. Sensitivity to all antimicrobials used in this study was observed in 47.6% of the isolates. The most predominant antibiotic resistance profile was similar to that of isolates from chicken. D55°C-values of 0.16 to 0.38 min and 0.47 to 0.84 min were determined for Campylobacter isolates in liquid whole egg and egg yolk, respectively. These values were lower than those reported for Salmonella. The very weak heat tolerance of Campylobacter indicated that it could be eliminated at the current legal pasteurization condition. There is no safety concern for commercially broken pasteurized liquid egg pertaining to Campylobacter contamination.

Fresh liquid whole egg and egg white were inoculated with poliovirus and echovirus and subjected to various process conditions of egg pasteurization. The process conditions studied included Salmonella destructive time-temperature exposures for whole egg and egg white, and various heat-peroxide treatments for egg white. Viruses did not survive time-temperature exposures that are effective against Salmonella in whole egg or egg white, but survived at various levels the heat-peroxide treatments applied to egg white. Although commercial equipment was not used in these studies, times, temperatures, and peroxide levels closely approximated those currently used commercially.

Four commercially pasteurized liquid egg products were individually inoculated with Listeria monocytogenes, Yersinia enterocolitica, and Aeromonas hydrophila. They were unsalted whole egg blend, unsalted egg white, 5% NaCl whole egg blend, and 10% NaCl egg yolk. The inoculated samples and uninoculated controls were held at 2, 6.7, and 12.8°C (temperature abuse) for 14 d. Psychrotropic pathogen growth or survival risks in the unsalted and NaCl supplemented eggs were Y. enterocolitica > A. hydrophila > L. monocytogenes, and L. monocytogenes > Y. enterocolitica > A. hydrophila, respectively. Y. enterocolitica produced delayed (≥4 d) growth responses in unsalted eggs held at ≤6.7°C but was inhibited by ≥5% NaCl at all three holding temperatures. L. monocytogenes growth was prevented at ≤6.7°C in the unsalted and NaCl supplemented eggs. The organism rapidly increased in the temperature abused 5% NaCl whole egg blend. L. monocytogenes and A. hydrophila were inactivated in the unsalted egg white and NaCl supplemented eggs, respectively. Psychrotropic pathogen behavior was unaffected by the competitive growth of indigenous spoilage microflora including pseudomonads, Serratia spp., and NaCl tolerant micrococci. Properly refrigerated and hygienically handled pasteurized liquid eggs are microbiologically safe against a broad range of psychrotropic pathogen strains.

Abstract In this method 25 g of sample is preenriched in lactose broth, incubated, subcultured in selenite cystine broth and tetrathionate broth, incubated, and streaked on selective plates of brillant green agar, Salmonella Shigella agar, and bismuth sulfite agar. After incubation of the selective plates, suspicious colonies are transferred to triple sugar iron agar slants and incubated. Cultures arc identified as Salmonella or not Salmonella by biochemical and serological tests. Eleven of the 13 collaborators reported correct results. Evaluation of the results indicates that the method does detect and identify Salmonella from positive samples with a level of about 35 Salmonella cells/25 g of sample. The method is recommended for adoption as official, first action.
