The Shanghai Municipal Market Supervision Office revealed that the total number of colonies is an indicator of microorganisms, not an indicator of pathogenic bacteria. It is mainly used to assess the cleanliness of food and reflect whether the food meets hygienic requirements during the production process. The total number of bacterial colonies in the food exceeds the standard, which will destroy the nutritional content of the food, accelerate the spoilage of the food, and cause the food to lose its edible value.
Coliform is one of the commonly used indicator bacteria for food contamination at home and abroad. Detection of coliforms in food indicates the possibility of contamination by pathogenic bacteria (such as Salmonella, Shigella, and pathogenic Escherichia coli). Excess coliform bacteria can be caused by contamination of raw materials, packaging materials, personnel, equipment, etc., or by improper storage and transportation conditions.
It is worth noting that it is not the first time that the regulatory authorities have detected that Shangshangqian Hot Pot has sanitary problems with the dishes. In June this year, the third branch of Shanghai Shangyuan Catering Management Co., Ltd. (Shangshangqian Hotpot Nanjing East Road Pedestrian Street Store) cleaned and disinfected ready-to-use chopsticks and detected coliforms in sampling supervision and inspection. The parties involved constituted a failure in the use of cleaning and disinfection. The act of tableware. In July this year, the Huangpu District Market Supervision Office issued a warning and administrative sanction decision to the parties involved.
