The broiler's last meal

摘要

Fecal contamination of broiler carcasses during processing is a continuous challenge for poultry producers. Contamination occurs when the contents of the bird's crop or digestive track leak onto the carcass, or the intestines are cut or ruptured during evisceration. When contamination occurs, affected carcasses are removed from the processing line for manual reprocessing (washing and trimming) and reinspection.
