Aseguramiento de la calidad de los productos lácteos "Oro Leche" (Acalosa), mediante el diseño e implamentación de Buenas Prácticas de Manufactura (BPM) y Procedimientos de Saneamiento (POES)

Abstract

At the dairy product plant, ACALOSA located at the Monos site, Pinas Cantón, El Oro Province, a planofGood Manufacturing Practices (BPM) and Sanitation Procedures (POES) was designed and implemented. Organoleptic, physical and chemical and microbiological analyses were carried out for the pasteurized milk, fresh cheese, butter and yogurt. A sample was taken in the principal process stages for each product, with 2 replications. These analyses were carried out before and after implementing the BPM and POES plans. Every fortnight an auditory was performed for each enterprise área to guarantee the plan accomplishment, with a higher progresa in the milk bagging área which presented a valuation of 82.75% at the beginning and 94.35% at the end. Likewise, the general plant control showed 64.14% previous to the investigation and 93.88% at the end. The plan efficiency was determined through the microbial load through the microbiological analysis in total mesophyll aerobics and total colliforms, with the highest efficiency in the pasteurized milk, in the ATM control (54.69%) and in CT all producis reduced pollution by almost 100%, resulting in the success of the applied plan. The implementation of the BPM and POES plans in the dairy product plant ACALOSA, exerted a significant influence improving the product quality. It is recommended to carry out training events to all the plant staff with new programs forquality security.
