Guidelines for the handling of chilled fish by retailers

The Guidelines cover the technical aspects of fish purchase, handling and selling, and of premises, vehicles and equipment, and apply to the trades of the traditional fishmonger, the supermarket, the mobile van operator and the market stall operator. Necessary background information is given and detailed recommendations are made. The Guidelines cover chilled fish which has not been pre-packed for retail sale, including wet fish, smoked fish, cooked fish and shellfish. Guidelines for handling CAP fish, which differs in its handling requirements, are given separately in the Seafish Guidelines for the handling of fish packed in a controlled atmosphere. It is recommended that retailers handling other pre-packed fish, including vacuum packed and overwrapped fish, follow the CAP Guidelines. These guidelines have been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish. Whilst these guidelines contain helpful technical information some of the legislative content may now be out of date.

Factors Affecting E. Coli Levels in Shellfish with Reference to EEC Directive 91/492

The contamination of bivalve molluscs by viral pathogens is of concern to Public Health Authorities and the shellfish industry because of the potential health risks and loss of markets for bivalve molluscs. As part of the Single European Market (SEM) the European Commission has introduced a Directive (91/492/EEC) which requires shellfish harvesting waters to be classified according to their levels of bacterial contamination; faecal coliforms or Escherichia coli as assessed by a 5 tube 3 dilution Most Probable Numbers test found in the shellfish collected from those waters. The intention is that bivalve molluscs which originate from areas of bacterial contamination shall undergo depuration or, if contamination is found to be severe, prolonged relaying, in order to ensure viral safety. Before the EEC Directive can be implemented it is necessary to design sampling protocols which would result in consistent classification of shellfish growing waters. This project is intended to examine the variables which could affect E. Coli levels in shellfish surveys and to design means by which bias resulting from these variables could be overcome. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish.
