Q.C. instrument accuracy, maintenance Instruments used for measuring conditions that control or prevent the growth of undesirable microorganisms are not calibrated to verify accuracy. Specifically, the water activity meter and the oven data logger.
Cleaning and sanitizing operations Failure to conduct cleaning and sanitizing operations for utensils and equipment in a manner that protects against contamination of food-contact surfaces from cleaning equipment. Specifically, sanitizer soaked sponge on a rope is used for midshift cleanup between allergen and non allergen product. Sponge and rope are not easily cleanable surfaces. Seed trays are not washed and sanitized between allergen and non-allergen.
Aflatoxin and other natural toxins There is no assurance that raw grains which are susceptible to contamination with aflatoxin or other natural toxins comply with current FDA standards before being incorporated into food. Specifically, corn.
