Batch Pasteurization System For
Small-Volume Liquid Egg
A "mini” pasteurizer and p:o
cess has been developed for
small-volume pioduccrs in she
liquid egg industry.
The new system, an ARS-Uni
versity of California coopei.itnc
effort, costs less than $12,000.
Over 66 billion individual
shell eggs are produced in the
United States each year. Most
aie destined for table use. but
many don’t make it, particularly
those that aie too small, cracked,
thin-shelled, or of low interior
quality. These eggs, slightly o\ er
14 percent of the total produced.

though some of them relied upon
large plants for pastern nation,
many weren't located close
enough to warrant transposing
their liquid eggs for tieatment.
This segment of the industry
needed a batch (small volume)
process that i educed bactcua as
effectively as HTST, and which
caused minimal damage to the
functional properties of liquid
eggs. The process would also
have to be adaptable, both in
cost and capacity, to the i equip
ments of small volume pioduc
ers.
The second unit was a 50-gal
lon kettle with side-wall heating
and cooling and swept-wall agi
tation The third was a 130-gal
lon kettle with side- and bot
tom-wall heating and cooling and
impeller agitation. The fourth
was a 100-gallon horizontal ket
tle with rotary coil heating and
cooling Both the 130- and 100-
gallon units were modified to in
clude head-space heaters to as
sure pasteurization of surface
foam.
The batches of liquid whole
egg were inoculated with Sal
monella typhimurium. Samples

Ag Inspectors
Start School
School staited this week for
28 prospective meat inspectors
of the Pennsylvania Depaitment
of Agriculture
They constitute the first men
recruited to implement the
state’s new mandatory meat in
spection law which requites in
spection of meat and livestock
before and after slaughter and
for inspection of slaughter
plants and packing houses.
The future meat inspectors
are being trained by repi esenta
twes of State and Fedeial De
partments of Agriculture, and
by staff members of the Col
lege of Aguculture of The
Pennsylvania State Umveisity.
Sessions are being held at Penn
State, where technical and la
boiatoiy facilities are available.
When class work is finished
September 17, the group will
receive six to nine months of on
the-iob training in fee'si ally in
spected plants wheie they will
obseive all phases of slaughter
ing and piocessmg
“Their most impoitant as
signment will be to learn to
lecogmze the noimal and the
abnormal,” said Dr John C.
Shook, duector of the State Ag
riculture Depaitmcnfs Bmeau
of Animal Industry
Additional classes will be
trained until full complement
of 140 inspectois aie at woik.

The daily cow is the best way
to maiket glass She is the most
efficient conveitei of cellulose
to human food that man knows.
Fuitheimoie, she doesn’t limit
her ability to glass alone
As an example of the veisalil
itj of the dauy cow to pioduce
human food, scientists at Penn
State Umveisity fed cows news
papers and uiea The cows may
have shaken their heads a bit at
the silliness of man but they ate
and went light on producing hu
man food milk
Humans cannot eat grass,
newspapers or coin cobs Cows
can and still produce a high
quality human food It will be in
this way we will be able to en

“foster mother to the human

looks like she will continue to
do so despite the population ex
