  • Analysis of Air Quality in Selected Areas of a Poultry Processing Plant with the Use of a Microbiological Air Sampler P Konieczny R Cegielska-Radziejewska E Mroczek J Dziedzic Agrociencias impaction technique microbiological air quality Keywords Poultry processing plant ABSTRACT The aim of the study was to analyze the air quality in selected production facilities specified as the so-called “high-risk zones”. Air samples were analyzed using either the sedimentation or the impaction methods. The impaction method showed the applicability of the air sampler in in-situ measurements. An increase in the numbers of aerobic bacteria was observed in most air sample collection sites as the duration of the production time increased. At the three successive dates, it amounted to 163 cfu/m 3 , 205 cfu/m 3 , and 324 cfu/m 3 , respectively. Such dependence was not observed by the of sedimentation method. It was stated that the impaction technique is better to precisely determine numbers of bacteria, yeast, and molds in the air of poultry processing areas. Analyses showed a high level of microbial air contamination in the examined production areas in relation to the guidelines applied in the assessment of indoor air contamination. Based on the recorded results, it was recommended to undertake immediate corrective actions, consisting in the replacement of filters in the refrigeration and air conditioning equipment, as well as to provide comprehensive training for the employees working in the selected facilities. 2016 artículo científico 1516-635X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=179748023007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1797 Revista Brasileira de Ciência Avícola application/pdf Fundação APINCO de Ciência e Tecnologia Avícolas Revista Brasileira de Ciência Avícola (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.18
