Probiotics isolated from the shubat in chicken meat production: importance and HACCP analysis

Probiotics are becoming more widely acknowledged as a safe and effective alternative to antibiotics for improving the safety of chicken meat. The investigation of potential hazards throughout the chicken meat supply chain enables a thorough assessment of contamination risks, allowing for the establishment of control and corrective actions within the corresponding processes. The ultimate goal is to ensure the safety of chicken meat for consumers. The objective of this study is to ascertain the potential risks that may arise inside the chicken production process, encompassing physical, chemical, and biological factors, with the identification of critical control points (CCPs). The study is also aiming to identify corrective strategies and approaches for decreasing the hazards associated with using of probiotics obtained from shubat. The research conducted involved conducting microbiological evaluations to test the ability of probiotics to withstand the presence of pathogenic bacteria. Additionally, the study examined the use of probiotics in chicken production, employing careful monitoring and comprehensive analyses to figure out the effectiveness of the supplements. For hazard identification and risk assessment, the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) approach was used, with the key findings showing that the most critical activities throughout the entire chain pertained to the use of probiotics as an alternative to antibiotics.
