Acidity holds botulism out of the bottle; E. coli it does not touch, so the heat treatment carries the whole burden.

Overview

Patulin is controlled by sorting rather than by heat, which is why this reference guideline starts where the fruit does: supplier control, orchard provenance, and the sorting that takes damaged fruit out before it ever reaches the press. Codex CXS 247-2005, the codes of practice for fresh fruits and fruit juices, and ISO 22000 stand behind it.

From the press onward it follows the line. Concentrates, water, sugar and additives, with the benzoate and ascorbic acid interactions that come with them. Juice preparation, then validated thermal treatment and the pathogen reduction it has to deliver. Alicyclobacillus and spoilage control, aseptic filling, and the incubation storage that holds finished product back for examination and testing before release. The facility is specified alongside — its seven sections, five warehouses, utilities, drainage and equipment — with packing, labelling, CIP cleaning and laboratory verification. One editable Word guideline.

What it covers

  • Fruit and vegetable supply — supplier control, orchard provenance and patulin control through sorting
  • Concentrates, water, sugar and additives, including benzoate and ascorbic acid interactions
  • Product designations and the composition behind them — what may be sold as juice, as nectar and as juice from concentrate, and the authenticity checks that keep those lines apart
  • Thermal treatment — validation of the pathogen reduction, with Alicyclobacillus and spoilage control
  • Aseptic filling, containers and packing, incubation storage and testing before release, and labelling

Who it's for

Juice and beverage manufacturers, thermal process specialists, and the technical and laboratory staff who put their names to a validation, along with inspectors auditing juice production. When a new line is commissioned, or the figures behind an existing pasteurisation are questioned, the parameters and the reasoning behind them are already in one place instead of scattered across equipment manuals and supplier notes.
