A team of Kansas State University researchers is us-ing a $1 million grant from the U.S. Department of Ag-riculture — and an additional grant from the state of Kansas — to study how to effectively control the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, in the nation’s meat and poultry processing facilities.
The study “Translating SARS-CoV-2 Research Into Practical Solutions For The Meat And Poultry Process-ing Industry” seeks to protect meat plant workers and their surrounding communities from the spread of COVID-19. It involves researchers from K-State’s College of Veteri-
nary Medicine and College of Agriculture.
Collaborating with the K-State team are co-project directors from the Universi-ty of Georgia poultry science department, Harsha Thip-pareddi and Manpreet Singh, who will provide extensive poultry experience and in-dustry connections and lead the grant’s industry outreach efforts. Valentina Trinetta and Sara Gragg, food safety faculty from the Food Science Institute, are co-project direc-tors. Co-investigator Anke Richter, a public health-fo-cused operation research spe-cialist at the Naval Postgradu-ate School, will lead the risk assessment driven by math-
ematical modeling. Co-in-vestigators Yunjeong Kim and Erin Schirtzinger in the K-State College of Veterinary Medicine and the Food Sci-ence Institute’s Daniel Vega round out the project team.
As part of the study, $330,000 from the State of Kansas National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility Tran-sition Fund will be used for research in K-State’s Biose-curity Research Institute, or BRI, at Pat Roberts Hall. The BRI is a high-containment re-search facility.
A key objective of the proj-ect will be verifying the ef-fectiveness of many of the ap-proved cleaners and sanitizers for inactivating SARS-CoV-2 during plant processing and sanitation operations.
“Nationally and interna-tionally, many facilities that produce meat and poultry products have been tem-porarily closed because of COVID-19 outbreaks,” said A. Sally Davis, an assistant professor of experimental pa-thology in the College of Vet-
erinary Medicine and project director of the K-State grant. “This has put a major strain on food production, limiting the amount of meat and poul-try on grocery store shelves and disrupting food and feed supply chains across the globe. Research is necessary to understand why SARS-CoV-2 is such a problem in meat and poultry processing environments and how we can mitigate the problem.”
Davis said infections with SARS-CoV-2 are primarily thought to occur by exposure to infectious micro-droplets in the air and contaminated surfaces.
“We are investigating the conditions within meat and poultry processing envi-ronments, such as low tem-peratures, relative humidity, increased air movement and workers being in close prox-imity to one another, to help identify areas and surfaces that are at high risk for con-tamination and spread of in-fectious SARS-CoV-2,” Da-vis said.
