Pulsed light surface decontamination Pulsed light can be used to inactivate micro-organisms on surfaces - including, for example, preparation areas, equipment, packaging and food. There are reports, for example, that it can reduce spoilage of products by inactivating moulds and bacteria that might otherwise grow on the product surface. Using equipment loaned to CCFRA by Claranor SA, we are assessing the applications of pulsed light with packaging and a range of foods - including bakery, meat, fish and fresh cut produce, as part of our on-going member-subscription funded new technologies project. We are also using the equipment to work with individual companies who wish to assess applications for their own products, processes or materials. Contact:Craig Leadley |
