Title
Verification Activities for Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia Coli (STEC) in Raw Beef Products - Rev... (Website)
Description
This directive provides instructions to inspection program personnel (IPP) on the verification activities, other than FSIS sampling, related to Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) and non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC). FSIS is reissuing this directive to reflect current policy regarding the importation and movement of product through Federal establishments bearing instructional statements concerning STEC, in Chapter IV Sections V and VI. These instructions were previously included in FSIS notices. FSIS is also updating the directive to provide additional information on reassessment requirements when establishments have produced product found positive for STEC.
