The project 'DEALS- Decontamination with alternative methods as a hurdle concept on carcasses and cuts of pork, broiler and turkey' investigates the combined application of several innovative decontamination methods with regard to meat production. The aim is to reduce the number of carcasses to be discarded (resource conservation) and to improve or ensure the food safety of the meat (consumer protection). Plasma water, UV-C treatment, the use of starter cultures and the more recent application of plasma water in the form of EWNS (engineeres water nano structures) are to be used for this purpose. Step by step, these decontamination methods will be applied in vitro to relevant microorganisms, to carcass surfaces of pigs, broilers and turkeys, and finally to meat cuts. Within the project, a prototype for the combined application of the methods is to be developed in cooperation with HAWK, which has already proven itself in another EiP project. The close exchange with the OG partners from primary production (slaughterhouses) is particularly essential for the practical implementation of the ideas.
