Abstract
Absence of regular cleaning has been found to result in heavy
bacterial loads on the surfaces of utensils and other equipments used
in prawn processing factories and peeling centres . Instance of high
faecal contamination are also sometimes met with. Detailed investigations
have shown that a cleaning schedule comprising of treatment
of these surface with a detergent followed by application of an effective
disinfectant like sodium hypochlorite would prevent such bacterial
build up.
