Egg Pasteurization

Have you done, or considered doing, a search? For something like pasteurization?

I need to demonstrate that pasteurization at 65C for 5 min ( european standard)is more or equal to 60C for 30 min (australian standard) help!!!!

What documentation do you have that indicates 65°C for 5 min IS more or equal to Australian standard? What documentation do you (or someone else) have that indicates 65°C for 5 min IS NOT more or equal to Australian standard?

And now we can better assume ESL shell eggs? Why do you make us ask for details? The more you tell us, the better responses you will get.

Hi Doorman

I have the australian requirement for whole eggs 60 C for 30 min or 100 C 1 min

I have the european zoosanitary declaration that the eggs has been treated at 65C for 5 min

is the treatment at 65 C for 5 min satisfy the Australian requirement???

there is somewhere a formula that compare different temp and time ?

I find the answer within your response:

"I have the australian requirement for whole eggs 60 C for 30 min or 100 C 1 min"

If Australian requirements are published... is that not the answer? If you wish to convince the government of Australia of the viability of your technique, you will need the documentation to substantiate your claim. Have you performed the necessary testing to conclude it is safe? Some chart you found (or were given) on the internet is hardly firm evidence of anything.

And, we are all STILL assuming (I am, anyway) hen's eggs. These could be quail eggs or ostrich eggs or crocodile eggs.

Don't be silly. Kangaroos don't lay eggs!

Wait...do they?

Egg whites coagulate (as in cook) at 62⁰C, +/-.

5 Min at 65⁰C will make loose scrambled eggs.

My favorite, with sausage and biscuits.

On Googling "australia egg pasteurization", this came up:

I don't know how helpful it might be, but there were other hits as well.

Maybe "salmonella sterilization" or something similar could also be useful.

thank you very much, but i need a conversion table

°F = (9/5)°C + 32

°C = (5/9) (°F-32)
