Abstract
A targeted survey on bacterial pathogens in soy products analyzed 3,157 samples for Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), and generic Escherichia coli (E. coli). No Salmonella or Listeria monocytogenes were found in any of the samples. Levels of S. aureus were found to be low in all samples. These are considered to have been produced under sanitary conditions and safe for consumption. High levels of generic E. coli were found in one sample. The CFIA conducted appropriate follow-up activities resulting in follow-up sampling and facility inspections.
