AB  - Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate the microbial profile of food contact surfaces (FCS) in foodservice industry of Serbia. Design/methodology/approach - The research covered 21,485 samples collected from 1,085 foodservice establishments during a period of 43 months. Results were deployed in terms of food contact materials, types of FCS and types of foodservice establishments. Findings - Highest share of results = 2 log(10) CFU/cm(2) were present on plastic surfaces during Autumn, while on ceramic and stainless steel surfaces highest share were observed during the Summer season. Take-away food establishments had the highest share of results = 2 log(10) CFU/cm(2) for both stainless steel and plastic surfaces. Highest share of stainless steel surfaces with microbial load = 2 log(10) CFU/cm(2) were cutlery, dishes and knives. Plastic dishes had the highest share of results = 2 log(10) CFU/cm(2) while cutting boards had the majority of results between 1 log(10) CFU/cm(2) and 2 log(10) CFU/cm(2). Research limitations/implications - Limitations of the research stem from the discussion of the nature of the FCS like porosity and other physical characteristics. Practical implications-This research has a practical application in terms of establishing process hygiene levels depending on types of food contact materials and types of FCS and seasonal variations. Originality/value - The findings of this study are worthy, in respect to possible correlation between seasonal variation and process hygiene requirements and can facilitate a better understanding of microbial risks associated with food preparation.

AB  - A total of 48,246 microbiological test results were collected from 130 meat processing plants and 220 meat retail facilities over a seven year period: 41 months before and 43 months after HACCP implementation. Our results confirm a strong positive effect of mandatory HACCP implementation on process hygiene indicators in meat establishments. Significant reductions were observed in the number of hygiene indicator organisms on all types of surfaces examined and types of meat establishments investigated. The improvement of process hygiene was articulated as aerobic colony count reduction of at least 1.0 log(10) CFU/cm(2) for food contact surfaces and over 2 log(10) CFU/cm(2) for cooling facilities (refrigerators, freezers and other meat cooling devices). Meat handlers' hands hygiene was least positively affected. The period after mandatory HACCP implementation was also marked by a steady decline of positive Enterobacteriaceae and Staphylococcus samples. Process hygiene advances for meat processing plants and meat retail facilities were similar.
