35、idation and verification in risk-based slaughter hygiene assurance systems e.g. those employing the hazard analysis critical control points (HACCP) principles and quality assurance systems.Moreover, many laboratories are involved in (regional, national, and international) monitoring or surveillance
36、programmes on the prevalence and/or counts of pathogenic microorganisms to gather information for risk assessment. The design of such monitoring and surveillance programmes will benefit from the use of standardized and internationally accepted sampling procedures.A harmonized sampling method, as des
37、cribed in this International Standard, can also be of interest for trade in meat and meat products.5EN ISO 17604:2015 (E) DIN EN ISO 17604:2015-12 1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies sampling methods for the detection and enumeration of microorganisms on the surface of carcasses or parts of
38、 carcasses of slaughtered meat animals. The microbiological sampling can be carried out as part of process hygiene control (to validate and or verify process control, e.g. total counts and Enterobacteriaceae) in slaughter establishments for large mammals, poultry, and game, risk-based assurance syst
39、ems for product safety, and monitoring or surveillance programmes for the prevalence and/or numbers of pathogenic microorganisms.This International Standard includes the use of excision and swabbing techniques depending on the reason for sample collection. It also includes the use of carcass rinsing
40、 for the examination of carcasses of poultry and some small animals. Annex A shows sampling sites on the carcasses of various animal species.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

48、hod depends mainly on the aim of the microbiological examination, the sensitivity required, and practical considerations. Excision, swabbing, and rinsing methods may be used, as permitted by this International Standard.The excision of surface tissue generally harvests a higher number of microorganis
49、ms from the surface than other methods. Not all the microorganisms harvested will grow on the media and under the incubation conditions used. The repeatability and reproducibility of excision and rinsing methods are less variable than swabbing, because swabbing methods are more difficult to standardize.However, only a small proportion of the carcass is sampled by excision methods, which might result in significant inaccuracies when total contaminat
