Food safety risks in fruit and vegetable processing environments can come from many different sources. Agricultural items are inherently dirty products, which can introduce risk- including microbial pathogens- to a facility from the outside environment. If your Environmental Monitoring Program (EMP) and sanitation programs are not sufficient to control these risks, these products could be potentially cross contaminating other products that are subsequently processed in the facility. It is therefore imperative that we think about risks from both our incoming products and our processes when designing environmental monitoring programs.

Fatty acids are carboxylic acids which are typically found in lipids (fats and oils) in plant and animal tissue. These acids are generally named according to the number of carbon atoms in the chain, and the number of double bonds in the chain, for example,C18:1, octadecaenoic acid contains 18 carbon atoms with a single double bond in the chain.
