These evaluations were also made of roast pork at the market. Samples of these products at the various stages of preparation and swabs of equipment surfaces that the pork touched during preparation were tested for Clostridium perfringens, Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus. The water activity of other samples was also determined. Temperatures attained at the geometric center of these pork products during roasting in ovens or after cooking ceased were such that vegetative pathogenic food borne bacteria should have been killed, if present. The cooked products were often displayed in warming cabinets or window counters at which time their temperatures were within a range that would permit rapid bacterial growth for several hours. Reheating of leftover pork was inadequate to destroy pathogenic microorganisms that grew or toxins that were produced during storage. The water activity of char siu was frequently at a level that would increase the bacterial lag phase and slow the rate of growth of pathogenic bacteria from optimum. A few samples of char siu were contaminated by low numbers of C. perfringens and a sample of raw and roast pork with S. aureus. There were opportunities for contamination of cooked pork products during preparation, particularly at the market. Critical control points for these operations--handling after cooking, hot-holding, cooling and reheating--are given along with measures for controlling and monitoring these points. Foods prepared in Chinese restaurants have been reported as vehicles of foodborne disease outbreaks (6,7.1,12,13). Boiled rice and fried rice have often been incriminated as vehicles, but, in many other investigations, specific vehicles have not been identified. Cured 1 U.S. Department a;l Health and Human Services. Public Health Service, Centers for Disease Control. Atlanta. Georgia Washington State Department a;( Social and Health SeT'I!ices, O{vmpia, Washington 'Hawaii State Department ofhealth. Honolulu. Hawaii pork (ham) and barbecued pork that have been prepared in foodservice establishments other than Chinese restaurants have often been identified as vehicles of foodborne illness <;!,5,12,13). Char siu, which ts marinated roast pork but is often referred to as barbecued pork, prepared in Chinese restaurants has only rarely been incriminated (1,15). Yet, because this product is quite popular and consequently is kept available for serving, it often remains for long periods of time within a temperature range that is suitable for growth of food borne pathogenic bacteria. Whether this apparent failure to be a vehicle in foodborne disease outbreaks could be real or a result of the lack of reports or incomplete investigations has not been examined. The purpose of this investigation was to (a) ascertain hazardous operations associated with the preparation and storage of pork products in several Chinese restaurants and in a Chinese market, (b) to relate these findings to the water activity of the product, and (c) to identify critical control points of typical preparation activities. MATRIALS AND MTHODS Operations Char siu is pork loin cut into rectangular strips approximately 3 em (1.2 in) by 6 em (2.4 in) and 2 to SO em (8 to 2 in) long that is marinated in a solution of sugar. salt, spices, soy sauce and red dye. It is usually refrigerated overnight and is then roasted in a gas-fired oven. After cooking. the char siu is either left in the unheated oven, stored in pans in a walk-in refrigerator. held at room temperature in pans, or stored in a display cabinet or on counters by a window. This product is either sold whole for take out orders or thinly diced into small pieces (<1 em thick) for use in won ton soup. fried rice or other dishes. Sides of fresh hog carcasses were left overnight at room temperature. Salt was rubbed over the surface and into cuts made in the flesh. After roasting in an oven. the sides were cut into chunks of roast pork and stored in glass cabinets until sold. Operations involved in preparing char siu were evaluated in six restaurants (A. B. C. D.. F) and at a market (G) that were located in either the states of Hawaii or Washington. Operations for preparing the cuts of roast pork were evaluated at the market. i\1 easureme,1ts Water activity (aw) was evaluated with an electric hygrometer. JOURNAL OF FOOD PROTCTION.

Several samples were frozen and thawed before analysis for- Time-temperature measurements were obtained with thermocouples and recorded on a recording potentiometer. Specifications for this instrument have been published -6). Necdle point thermocouples were inserted into the meat so that the sensing end was located near the geometric center. Welded-junction thermocouples were used to measure air temperatures. Laboratory Samples for laboratory analysis were taken as described by Bryan et al. (4.6). Laboratory procedures for the isolation of Clostridium perfringens, Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus are described in the Bacteriological Analytical Manual (} 6). RSULTS AND DISCUSSION Storage of raw products Temperature changes in a side of raw pork (at the center of a thigh) held overnight at room temperature are shown in Fig. 1. The temperatures were such that psychrotrophic and mesophilic microorganisms could have multiplied for several hours. Temperatures of strips of raw pork, during marinating in a refrigerator, are shown in Fig. 2. During this period, usual pathogenic foodbome bacteria would not be expected to multiply because of the combined effects of low temperature and salt concentration. cooking are summarized in Table 1 and examples are illustrated in Fig The highest temperatures attained at the geometric centers of pieces of char siu ranged from 61 C (142 F) to 91 C (195 F). Internal temperatures of the roast pork reached 74 C (166 F) and 81 C (178 F). The temperatures rose as much as 4 C (7 F) after cooking ceased. According to established D-values for various pathogenic bacteria in similar substrates (1,8), the time-temperature values attained in these products should have killed most vegetative pathogenic foodborne bacteria that might have been present.

Display After cooking, char siu and other pork products were sometimes displayed in "warming" cabinets or window counters. Glass on three sides of the cabinets protected the pork from contamination by customers and certain other sources. A few infrared and incandescent light bulbs, within the cabinet or window display area but usually at a considerable distance from the food, were used to heat the air around the pork. Time-temperature exposures under such circumstances are shown in Fig. 7, 8 and 9, and summary data are given in Table 3.

As can be seen in Fig. 7-9, the TABL 2. foods were near optimal temperatures for growth of common pathogenic food borne bacteria for a long while. At other times, as shown in Table 3 and in Fig. 5 and 6, cooked pork products were sometimes left at room temperature for several (as long as 18) hours. Under these conditions, there is an obvious potential for multiplication of bacteria. Stiles and Ng (12) showed that at 3 C (86 F) Bacillus cereus, C. perjringens, scherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, and S. aureus had a longer lag phase when inoculated into Chinese (so-called barbecued) pork tenderloin than when inoculated into commercially prepared, rotisserie-cooked chicken. The lag was 5 to 8 h, but after 2 to 22 h incubation, counts of these bacteria reached 1 5 to 1 9 During the present study, the foods stayed on display within a temperature range of 21 C (7 F) to 46 C (115 F) for periods of 5 to 8 h on one occasion and exceeded this time period on two other occasions. A few samples of pork were collected and tested for S. aureus, C. peifringens, and Salmonefla. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated from one sample of raw pork and from one sample of roast pork (Table 4). The cooked product was probably contaminated after cooking by workers who handled the pork or from equipment surfaces ltable 2). Clostridium perfringens was isolated from 3 to 14 samples of cooked pork. In all cases, only small numbers of these food borne pathogens were found (Table 4). Although Tiwari et al.

Cooling unused products Char siu was sometimes refrigerated within an hour or two after cooking, as shown in Table 3 and in Fig. 3 and 4. When this was done, little bacterial growth would be expected. Leftover char siu and roast pork were also refrigerated after holding on display (Table 3, Fig. 1). In these situations, some additional bacterial multiplication could occur, but in time would cease. Storage of a large quantity of leftover pork in a large container could, however, lead to considerable microbial growth. Reheating During reheating of chilled, precooked pork products, vegetative pathogens, if present, would have survived in the interiors (Table 1, Fig. 11). As shown by Bryan and Kilpatrick (3) and by Bryan and McKinley (4), meat products are often reheated to temperatures too low or for too short of a time to kill the large numbers of vegetative pathogenic bacteria that might have grown during periods of improper storage. Water activity Samples of roast pork and char siu were tested for water activity (aw> The aw of two samples of roast pork was.97 and.99.

Growth of common gram-negative spoilage bacteria is inhibited at aw values less than.98 (9). Therefore, spoilage of char siu would not likely be caused by gram-negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas spp. Few pathogenic foodborne bacteria would be expected to multiply at aw values below.95 (9). Some strains of S. aureus could multiply, but there has been no evidence of enterotoxin production when the aw value was below. 92 (14).
