Food Microbiology - Targeted Surveys - Final Report - Bacterial Pathogens in Soy Products - April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014 & April 1, 2015 to March 31, 2016

​A targeted survey on bacterial pathogens in soy products analysed 3,157 samples for Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and generic E. coli. Pathogens were not detected in any of the samples. Elevated levels of generic E. coli were found in three samples. High levels of generic E. coli were found in one sample. Almost all of the analysed samples appear to have been produced under sanitary conditions and generally safe for consumption. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency conducted appropriate follow-up activities resulting in follow-up sampling and facility inspections.
