Growth Cycle of Micro-organisms:
All microbes undergo similar growth patterns.
Each ‘Growth Curve’ has 4 Phases:
� Lag phase: Cells don’t multiply as its still dormant and acclimatizing itself to media.
� Log phase: Microbes grow at an Exponential rate utilizing all nutrients in the media & producing toxic metabolic waste products.
� Stationary phase: Here Growth Rate = Death Rate, due to depletion of nutrients, increase in waste products.
� Death Phase: Death rate exceeds growth rate due to very low conc. of nutrients & high conc. of metabolic wastes.

Micro-organisms in food processing :
Commonly conducted tests in Food Plants :
� Total Count –It helps to enumerate total no. of MO’s in a media. The number of bacteria present can be
indicative of the sanitary condition of material. Mo’s tested Bacillus Cereus, S. Aureus , Salmonella
� Coliforms-Their presence is sign of pollution problems & therefore is particularly significant from a public
health standpoint. MO tested E. Coli.
� Yeast & Mold-They are indicative of poor CIP and sanitation, atmosphere etc. MO tested –Saccharomyces
sp. , mycelium sp.
TPC:Yeast & Mold:
COLIFORMS

Micro-organisms in food processing :
Clean in place (CIP) system:
A system used in the preparation, distribution, delivery, and subsequent removal of cleaning solutions to soiled equipment and piping systems without dismantling them.
� CIP cycle: The executed recipe of rinses, washes, and air blows used to clean soiled equipment.
� CIP circuit: The sum of paths within a process unit operation that are cleaned as part of a single CIP cycle.
� Variables to be considered while designing CIP System:
(1) Time of exposure (contact time) to wash and rinse solutions
(2) CIP flow rate (3 - 5 ft./Sec)
(3) Temperature of wash and rinse solutions
(4) Chemical concentration of wash solutions
� Efficiency of CIP Design:
� Spray ball test – Riboflavin test.
� Cleanability – Checked using the full CIP protocol at the facility where the vessel is installed including cleansers and temperatures

www.alfalaval.com
Microbial aspect of Milk Powder Production:
Milk has a pH closer to alkaline range i.e. 6.4-6.9 (favorable for microbial growth) and it is a rich source of nutrients like carbohydrates , proteins , water an excellent media for microbial growth ,hence its CIP is very critical.
Typical CIP Program in a Milk Processing plant:
![Page 14: Microbiology in food processing presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052216/547a7c68b4af9fda158b4b29/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
www.alfalaval.com
Microbial aspect of Milk Powder Production:
Microbiological limit for Milk Powder (Reference: Microbial standards specified by Codex Commission (1983),ICMSF-International Commission for Microbial Specifications for food (1986).

www.alfalaval.com
Microbiology in Vegetable oil processing:
Vegetable oil processing involves very low use of water and veg oils have a low Aw hence microbial contamination is a low concern in these plants.
Typical CIP in Vegetable oil Plant: Only Deodorizer and Alfa Laval VHE Economizer (High steam sparging heat exchanger) is CIP’ed with Water pre-rinse+caustic soln of 8-10%+Hot water final rinse at temp 70 to 80 degree C ,each cycle being of 5-10 minutes.
Frequency-Once in a year.
Microbiological limit for Fats & oil (Reference: Microbial standards specified by Codex (1983),ICMSF(1986):

Microbiology in Beverages & Viscous foods:
Pasteurization: Partial sterilization of foods at a temperature that destroys harmful microorganisms without major
changes in the chemistry of the food.
Sterilization: Total destruction of all microorganisms (whether or not pathogenic) and their spores
Destruction of all micro-organisms and spores in viscous foods, involves sterilization, usually at temperatures between 110°C and 115°C for 60-90 seconds.
Alfa Laval supplies sterilizer (Steritherm) or pasteurizer units (SS PHE) for viscous fruits or vegetable pulps or
juices .It is mostly aseptic process (Asepto) with zero chance of contamination due to no contact with air or water.
![Page 17: Microbiology in food processing presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052216/547a7c68b4af9fda158b4b29/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
www.alfalaval.com
Microbiology in Beverages & Viscous foods:
� Fruit and vegetable juices or pulps are low acid foods, mainly harboring acidophiles (pH < 5.4)
such as Clostridium botulinum, which are completely destroyed in sterilization
� CIP in Beverage plant: CIP Cycle involves Hot water pre-rinse+caustic soln of 2-5 % + a final rinse at temp 70 to 80 degree C. Frequency-After each production batch.
� Microbial testing - Total plate count post sterilization and cooling: Standard- Not detectable or 5-10cfu/100gm.
� Fruit Juice Pasteurizer:
� Pasteurization of juice not only destroys spoilage organisms, but also inactivates the pectic enzymes, which cause chemical changes. Lactic acid and acetic acid bacteria do not grow in juice at temperatures above 54°C, and temperatures above 71°C are sufficient to destroy most other spoilage organisms including most fermentation organisms.

Designing a Microbiologically safe Equipment & Plant :
A.) Drainablity:
� Equipment like tanks , vessels, hoppers, with discharge openings must be fully drainable .For good drainablity & cleanability sharp corners must be avoided. Horizontal surfaces must have a slope of > 3 °
� Designing properly sloping floors to drains (¼ inch per foot)
� Design floor drains to prevent the accumulation of water in or around the drains and making drains accessible for cleaning with drain covers to avoid pest entry.
![Page 19: Microbiology in food processing presentation](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052216/547a7c68b4af9fda158b4b29/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
www.alfalaval.com
Designing a Microbiologically safe Equipment & Plant :
B.)Top Rims and equipment covers:
� Top rims of tanks, hoppers etc. must avoid ledges or crevices where product can lodge & are difficult to clean.
� Covers should be completely detachable for cleaning, if hinged covers are used, the hinge must be designed
such that hinge is easily cleanable & accumulation of dust/dirt is avoided.

Designing a Microbiologically safe Equipment & Plant :
F.)Piping:
• Dead leg : An area of entrapment in a vessel or piping that could lead to contamination.
Dead legs will be measured by the term L/D, where L is the leg extension from the I.D. wall perpendicular to the flow pattern or direction, and D is the I .D. of the extension or leg of a tubing fitting or the nominal dimension of a valve or instrument.
As a standard currently in Hygienic process industry L/D of 2:1 is preferred.
� Cross contamination of product streams shall be physically prevented by:(a) removable spool piece(b) U-bend transfer panel(c) double block-and-bleed valve system –Mix proof valve cluster
� Prevent use of by-pass as much as possible.

FERMENTATION PROCESS
What is Fermentation?
• Fermenation is the process in which complexorganic substance (molecules) is converted in tothe simpler organic substance (molecules) by theaction of enzymes secreated by the micro-organisms.
–Micro-organism+substrate= more microbial cells+ metabolic products
Two types:- -Aerobic fermentation
�Production of Acetic Acid, citric acid
- Anaerobic fermentation
�Alcohol,acetone,butanol,lactic acid

Methods to control Contamination• Find out sources- Like Molasses,water,air supply
• Good yeast culture
• Propagation process errors/backers yeast.
• Unattended fermentation process.
• Unhygienic conditions: Immediately complete cleaning of
spillage.
• Sterilization of mash – practically not possible but during
propagation stages proper sterilization & care needs to be taken
• Good microbiological practices- Keen observation on the
process in microbiological point of view, like microscopic observation.
• CIP
• GOOD DESIGNS © Alfa Laval Slide 62
