Abstract
Here, in this study HACCP program was applied for the production of beef fillet in an Egyptian hotel and the microbial
load before and after application was compared. The aerobic plate count monitored before and after application of
corrective action during different successive production stages of beef fillet in tested hotel to examine the frequency of
contamination. The mean values of Aerobic plate count before application of corrective actions were 20.47 ± 7.01, 71.33
± 15.27, 680.0 ± 385.53, 528.67 ±255.39, 24.33 ± 8.09, and 24.33 ± 8.09 (CFU/gm) for the examined frozen, thawed,
formed, salted, cooked and served meat, respectively. After application of corrective action, the aerobic plate count
declined to be 13.80 ± 4.20, 48.00 ± 7.32, 118.67± 26.97, 92.67 ± 20.34, 7.13 ± 1.95, and
load before and after application was compared. The aerobic plate count monitored before and after application of
corrective action during different successive production stages of beef fillet in tested hotel to examine the frequency of
contamination. The mean values of Aerobic plate count before application of corrective actions were 20.47 ± 7.01, 71.33
± 15.27, 680.0 ± 385.53, 528.67 ±255.39, 24.33 ± 8.09, and 24.33 ± 8.09 (CFU/gm) for the examined frozen, thawed,
formed, salted, cooked and served meat, respectively. After application of corrective action, the aerobic plate count
declined to be 13.80 ± 4.20, 48.00 ± 7.32, 118.67± 26.97, 92.67 ± 20.34, 7.13 ± 1.95, and
