Peringens Predictor

Perfringens Predictor is a user friendly tool developed to enable accurate prediction, through simulation, of the response of C. perfringens during the cooling process, for bulked cooked meats. In this web version of Perfringens Predictor the user can input the pH of the meat and the concentration of salt.

Moreover, predictions can be performed either for cured or uncured products. Both graphical and numerical presentation of the simulated response and the cooling data are provided. Graphs, and data for the simulation profile and cooling curves (in X, Y series), can easily be exported to other programs for the purpose of e.g report writing or comparison.

The program also provides clear interpretation of whether the cooling curve of interest is safe according to predictions and current UK, Food Standards Agency advice.
