Abstract

See full text

A method for reducing and/or eliminating bacterial contamination in a food product includes immersing the food product in the tank containing a fluid and discharging a pressure arc beneath the surface of the fluid wherein the pressure arc is effective in disrupting cell equilibrium and/or inactivating the bacteria. A system for use in the method includes an electrical input/output system, a reflector, the reflector reflecting an output charge between two oppositely charged electrodes, and a fluid filled tank. The method and system are effective in the reduction of food-borne bacterial contaminants particularly in or on poultry, red meat, and/or pork.
