PROCEDURE FOR FOOD DEFENCE Date of Release: 31/08/2022
PURPOSE:
To ensure that the food processing facility is secured from potential vulnerabilities that could
adulterate or contaminate the finished product through contamination of raw materials, in-process
formulations, or finished products at the end of the production process.
SCOPE:
Plant & Plant premises
RESPONSIBILITY:
GM- Operation and all Departmental heads
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
The first step is to develop a functional food defense plan that assesses the existing security measures
and risk reduction programs in place to reduce the likelihood to adulterate or contaminate the
finished product through contamination.
In the development of the food defense plan, the establishment will look at where the vulnerabilities
may arise. These may be from outside through the incoming raw materials, through unauthorized
entry or through the water supply, or they may be through internal means such as employees that have
access to raw materials and ingredients, in-process formulations, or even finished products.
After the establishment identifies potential vulnerabilities, it will then examine possible risk reduction
methods such as the use of physical security or hardware (e.g. Alarms, doors, guards, and access
control systems), personnel security (e.g. Background checks, screening, training and awareness) or
procedural security.
Once the key vulnerabilities are addressed with risk–reduction methods, the establishment needs to
ensure that the risk–reduction techniques are being used (e.g., doors are kept locked, and visitors are
not allowed into the plant without prior permission. The staff should be trained and vigilant in the
access control in the process area.

INTRODUCTION
Air quality inside the Chapati processing area influences the microbial quality of Chapatis. Chapatis
are susceptible to contamination by airborne microorganisms. Microbial air quality is a critical point
in the processing of Chapati product since air borne contamination reduces shelf life and may serve as
a vehicle for transmitting spoilage. Airborne micro-organisms in the plant include mainly bacteria and
yeast moulds. The main sources of airborne organisms in the Chapati processing area include the
activity of factory personnel, Chapati making equipment, floor drain, ventilation, and air condition
system, packaging material, and water. Microbiological analysis of air involves 3 main steps which
are sampling, analysis, and enumeration. Air sampling can be done by sedimentation (settle plates).
Air is generally analysed for aerobic plate count (APC) and yeast and mould count (YMC). The APC
and YMC are employed as of indicators of hygiene and sanitary conditions of the environment in
production, processing, and storage area.
PRINCIPLE
Sedimentation (settle plate technique used for determination of APC and YMC in air. In this
technique, the selective solid agar medium in the Petri plate expose in the process section/production
area. The petri plates are then incubated at a specified incubation temperature for specified periods of
time. After the incubation period, the colonies developed in each plate are counted and the count
express in CFU/ 15 minutes.
