ABSTRACT
The risk of salmonellosis is expected to increase with the rise in the consumption of poultry meat. The aim of this study was to investigate the combination treatment of peroxyacetic acid (PAA) or lactic acid (LA) with UV-C against Salmonella Enteritidis biofilms formed on food contact surface (stainless steel [SS], silicone rubber [SR], and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene [UHMWPE]) and chicken skin. The biofilm on food contact surface and chicken skin was significantly decreased (P < 0.05) by combination treatment of PAA or LA with UV-C. Combination treatment of PAA (50-500 µg/mL) with UV-C (5 and 10 min) reduced 3.10-6.41 log CFU/cm2 and LA (0.5-2.0%) with UV-C (5 and 10 min) reduced 3.35-6.41 log CFU/cm2 of S. Enteritidis biofilms on food contact surface. Salmonella Enteritidis biofilms on chicken skin was reduced around 2 log CFU/g with minor quality changes in color and texture by combination treatment of PAA (500 µg/mL) or LA (2.0%) with UV-C (10 min). Additional reduction occurred on SS and UHMWPE by PAA or LA with UV-C, while only LA with UV-C caused additional reduction on chicken skin. Also, it was visualized that the biofilm on food contact surface and chicken skin was removed through field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and death of cells constituting the biofilm was confirmed through confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). These results indicating that the combination treatment of PAA or LA with UV-C could be used for S. Enteritidis biofilm control strategy in poultry industry.
