Abstract. This study was conducted to assess the technical
specifications, and hygienic practices applied in Jeddah northern
slaughterhouse, to evaluate microbial contamination for all stages of
slaughtering process, and to study the possibility of rehabilitation of
the slaughterhouse for the application of HACCP system and to
identify the points of weakness that prevent the application of the
system in the slaughterhouse.
The assessment of slaughterhouse showed that the percentage of
the total score of application of GHP is 63% reflecting medium hazard
which directly affects the hygienic quality and microbiological
specifications of the produced meat. On the other hand, the evaluation
of some other practices such as cleaning and disinfection and all
practices carried out prior to slaughter reflects high-hazard, because
these were not conducted according to the GHP requirements which
may affect both the quality and safety of the produced meat.
Assessment of the technical requirements showed poor maintenance in
all sections specially the walls, floors, roofs and cooling rooms. Also,
the obtained results showed that the risks in health practices during
slaughtering and processing procedures were mainly in the skinning
and final washing steps. These poor hygienic practices were evident
on the high load of examined microorganisms in the produced meat.
The study was also planned to determine the ways of
developing slaughterhouse through application of HACCP system
after identifying the prerequisites for such system. The results
concluded that Jeddah northern slaughterhouse in its current status
does not apply any quality or safety standards required for the
production of good quality meat conform to Saudi and international
specifications. Therefore, application of the Hazard Analysis Critical
Control Point (HACCP) system after the completion of prerequisites
and training of workers and staffs is highly recommended. |
