Antimicrobial interventions.Researchers are attempting to determine the ability of current beef processing antimicrobial interventions to reduce levels of multidrug-resistant and non-multidrug-resistant Salmonella on beef carcasses. Bovine cutaneous cutaneous /cu·ta·ne·ous/ (ku-ta´ne-us) pertaining to the skin. cu·ta·ne·ous adj. Of, relating to, or affecting the skin. Cutaneous Pertaining to the skin. trunci (BCT BCT Brigade Combat Team BCT Basic Combat Training BCT Best Conventional Pollutant Control Technology (EPA) BCT Business Cards Tomorrow BCT Banque Centrale de Tunisie (Central Bank of Tunisia) ) pieces will be inoculated with Salmonella strains, including multidrug-resistant strains and non-multidrug-resistant strains of both S. newport and S. typhimurium. Spray-washing of the cutaneous trunci to test a multitude of interventions will take place inside a biological safety cabinet. Scientists will test the traditional antimicrobial intervention washes, hot water and organic acids, along with some more recently developed potential interventions for carcass washing--electrolyzed water and ozone, among others. Investigators will enumerate To count or list one by one. For example, an enumerated data type defines a list of all possible values for a variable, and no other value can then be placed into it. See device enumeration and ENUM. Salmonella before and after the antimicrobial intervention treatments are applied.
