UGA Scientists Tackle Foodborne Pathogens on Beef
University of Georgia scientists were awarded a five-year $4.9 million grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to study ways to kill foodborne pathogens on beef before it arrives on supermarket shelves and in restaurant kitchens. The research project focuses on six different processing technologies at meat processing facilities to determine if they are effective and feasible to adopt across the industry. Technologies examined during the project will include infrared radiation, electrolyzed water, radio frequency, a levulinic acid plus sodium dodecyl wash, UV activated TiO2 photocatalysis treatment and germicidal UV light.
