The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of ultraviolet (UV) light on the reduction ofEscherichia coliandSalmonella senftenberg. Microbial reduction was measured by determining total reduction and inactivation rates of surviving bacteria after exposure to different UV treatments. Surfaces of tryptic soy agar, pork skin and pork muscle were inoculated with eitherE. coliorS. senftenbergand exposed to 20, 50, 80, 100, 500 and 1000 microwatts per square centimeter (μW cm−2) of UV light. On the agar surface after 120 s, a >5-log reduction ofE. colion agar was obtained at intensities of 100μW cm−2or greater and, after 960 s, a >7-log reduction was observed at intensities of 80μW cm−2or greater forS. senftenberg. For fresh pork muscle and after 1920-s exposure, greatest logarithmic reductions (P<0.05) were achieved at intensities of 100μW cm−2or greater forE. coliand at intensities of 80μW cm−2or greater forS. senftenbergwhere a 1.5- and 2-log reduction was observed, respectively. For pork skin exposed at 1920 s, maximum logarithmic reductions forS. senftenbergwere observed at intensities of 100μW cm−2. However, greatest logarithmic reduction ofE. colion pork skin was not observed until UV intensity reached 1000μW cm−2. After exposure to 100μW cm−2, UV D-values forE. coliwere 1370 s for pork muscle, 1282 s for pork skin, and 242 s for agar. WhenS. senftenbergwas exposed to 100μW cm−2, UV D-values were 1163 s for pork muscle, 595 s for pork skin, and 15 s for agar. When surfaces were inoculated withE. coliand exposed to 1000μW cm−2, UV D-values on muscle, pork skin and agar surfaces were 1205 s, 592 s, and 177 s, respectively. When surfaces inoculated withS. seftenbergwere exposed to 1000μW cm−2, UV D-values were 1064 s, 490 s, and 21 s on muscle, skin and agar, respectively, In all cases,E. coliappeared to be more resistant to UV treatment compared toS. senftenberg. This study demonstrates that UV light can be used to reduce certain pathogens on pork meat surfaces. More research is needed to determine the antimicrobial activity of UV light exposure to meat carcasses or meat cuts in a food-processing environment.
