Follow-ups

  1. fupAdditionalInfo
    The herring products of batch No. F0375 are safe, as the "Listeria challenge testing" results provided by the company prove that Listeria monocytogenes cannot multiply in this product. Since the determined growth potential is negative (-0.26 log10 cfu/g), the production fully complies with EU technical guidance, guaranteeing that the bacterial count will not exceed the permitted 100 cfu/g limit by the end of its shelf life.
