ABSTRACT: Salmonella and Campylobacter are major foodborne pathogens that cause outbreaks associated with contaminated chicken liver. Proper cooking is necessary to avoid the risk of illness to consumers. This study tested the thermal inactivation of a 4-strain Salmonella cocktail and a 3-strain Campylobacter cocktail in chicken livers separately at temperatures ranging from 55.0 to 62.5°C. Inoculated livers were sealed in aluminum cells and immersed in a water bath. The decimal reduction time (D-values) of Salmonella in chicken livers were 9.01, 2.36, 0.82, and 0.23 min at 55.0, 57.5, 60.0, and 62.5°C, respectively. The D-values of Campylobacter ranged from 2.22 min at 55.0°C to 0.19 min at 60.0°C. Salmonella and Campylobacter had similar z-values in chicken livers of 4.8 and 4.6°C, respectively. Chicken livers can be heated to internal temperatures of 70.0 to 73.9°C for at least 1.6 to 0.2 s to achieve a 7-log reduction of Salmonella. Validation tests demonstrated that heating chicken livers to internal temperatures of 70.0 to 73.9°C for 2 to 0 s resulted in a reduction of Salmonella exceeding 7 logs. Collectively, these data show that Salmonella exhibits higher heat resistance than Campylobacter in chicken livers. Therefore, Salmonella could be considered as the target pathogen when designing thermal treatments or cooking instructions for liver products. These findings will aid in designing effective thermal processing for both industrial and home cooking to eliminate Salmonella and Campylobacter, ensuring consumer safety when consuming chicken liver products. |
