Dear Fransico
The European Commission has established microbiological standards only for
raw bivalve molluscs and for cooked crustacea and molluscan shellfish. They
are laid down in:
EC (European Commission) 1991a. Council Directive 91/492/EEC of 15 July 1991
laying down the health conditions for the production and the placing on the
market of live bivalve molluscs Official Journal of the European Communities
L 268, 24/09/1991,. 0001-0014; &
EC (European Commission) 1993. Commission Decision 93/51/EEC of 15 December
1992 on the microbiological criteria applicable to the production of cooked
crustaceans and molluscan shellfish. Official Journal of the European
Communities L 013, 21/01/1993,. 0011-0013.
I do not think they are available on the EU Internet site. Before using
them, or other microbiological specifications/standards, I would strongly
recommend you study section 13 in:
Huss, H.H; Ababouch, L; Gram, L., Assessment and management of seafood
safety and quality, FAO Fisheries Technical Paper. No. 444. Rome, FAO. 2003.
This is available through the FAO Fishery Division Internet site.
