ABSTRACT
A carne bovina é um importante segmento do agronegócio brasileiro, com significativa participação no valor das exportações do País. Visando manter-se competitivo frente às exigências do mercado externo, principalmente europeu, o Brasil implementou o Sistema de Identificação e Certificação de Bovinos e Bubalinos (SISBOV). Este sistema tem como objetivo monitorar toda cadeia produtiva brasileira, certificando que o Brasil exporta um produto livre de contaminação. Este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar as adequações que o Brasil realizou no seu sistema agroindustrial com a finalidade de atender ao mercado internacional. Utilizou-se uma metodologia exploratória, por meio de revisão bibliográfica no período de 2007 a 2015. A implantação de um sistema de rastreabilidade na indústria provocou uma série de modificações em toda a cadeia produtiva brasileira, porém, o alto custo deste sistema para o pecuarista, conjugado a pontos falhos na legislação brasileira, vem limitando o desempenho brasileiro. A necessidade de mais investimentos na cadeia produtiva torna-se inquestionável.
The brazilian feed has undergone great changes due to the need of fast and practical foods. Thus there is a great demand for ready meals, represented by the street food, increasing street food trade. Besides the ease in acquiring food ready for consumption, the quality verification necessary that the food reaches the consumer, from raw materials to finished product. The aimed of this work evaluate the implementation of good manufacturing practices in the handling of meat products from street vendors barbecue spit and establishments in fair of the Porto in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. It was evaluated through of observation in locu using checklist based on the current brazilian law, in ten different points of barbecue spit sales in the central region due to the large number of people daily circulate and eight meat marketing outlets in the fair of the Porto, much frequented by the region locals. The results of the item regarding human resources among street vendors showed 84% of noncompliance, regarding the general aspects of environmental conditions, 95% had non-compliance and for the general aspects of plant and equipment was obtained 58% of non-compliance, for the ten points of sales observed. Between the outlets of meat was observed 73,7% non-compliance to management the item raw material and 84% for evaluation of buildings and facilities. According to the checklist applied for verification of Good Manufacturing PracticeGMP in both data collection points, it is concluded that in general all points of sales are outside the standards set by legislation, not allowing the guarantee of food quality insurance to consumer health.

Beef is an important segment of Brazilian agribusiness, with significant participation in the value of exports. Aiming to remain competitive with the requirements of foreign markets, especially Europe, Brazil implemented the u notification System and Certification Cattle and Buffaloes (SISBOV). This system aims to monitor the entire Brazilian production chain, ensuring that Brazil exports a contamination-free product. This study aimed to analyze adjustments that Brazil has made in its agribusiness system in order to meet the international market. We used an exploratory methodology, through literature review from 2007 to 2015. The implementation of a traceability system in the industry caused a series of changes in the entire Brazilian production chain, however, the high cost of this system for the farmer, conjugated to weak points in Brazilian legislation has limited the Brazilian performance. The need for more investment in the production chain together becomes unquestionable.

Salmonella is a foodborne pathogen that commonly inhabits the gastrointestinal tract of a healthy feedlot cattle and can be transferred to the carcass surface during hide removal and evisceration procedures. Numerous investigations on Salmonella prevalence throughout different stages of the beef chain have been conducted. In contrast, limited studies are available on quantitative determinations of Salmonella at different steps in raw meat production. Quantitative data, particularly for pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella are important for quantitative risk assessment. Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli populations were enumerated on beef carcass samples collected at abattoirs and also in beef chunks and ground beef samples collected from butcher's shops at retail in Jalisco State, Mexico. Sponge samples from beef carcass sides (n=142) were collected immediately after final water wash and before chilling at three non-federally inspected abattoirs following USDA-FSIS sampling protocols. Beef chunks (n=84) and ground beef (n=65) samples were obtained from 86 butcher's shops. Salmonella enumeration was conducted by the Most Probable Number method and E. coli counts were determined using Petrifilm plates. Salmonella was isolated from 18% of beef carcasses, 39% of beef chunks and 71% of ground beef samples. Salmonella mean counts were 1.3±0.9 Log MPN/300 cm(2) on beef carcasses, 1.9±0.9 and 2.3±1.1 Log MPN/25 g in beef chunks and ground beef samples, respectively. Twenty-six Salmonella serotypes and 11 serogroups were identified among 432 isolates recovered. Salmonella typhimurium (14%), Salmonella sinstorf (12%) and S. Group E1 monophasic (10%) were the most frequent. Escherichia coli was present on 97, 84 and 100% of beef carcasses, beef chunks and ground beef samples, respectively. Escherichia coli mean counts were 3.2±0.7 Log CFU/300 cm(2), 3.9±1.1 and 4.5±1.2 Log CFU/25 g on beef carcasses, beef chunks and ground beef, respectively. Salmonella prevalence and mean counts found in raw beef were higher than previously reported in studies from other countries. The data collected in this study show a trend in the prevalence of Salmonella to be higher as meat processing is extended at retail. This, together with the diversity of serotypes found, indicates that raw meat is exposed to multiple contamination sources during slaughter and retail processing and highlights the necessity to implement Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures for those establishments. Finally, this study provides quantitative information for future risk assessments associated with the risk of human salmonellosis.

Within a recent EU research project ("ProSafeBeef"), research on foodborne pathogens in the beef chain was conducted by using a longitudinally integrated (fork-to-farm) approach. There is not any "single intervention-single chain point" combination by which the pathogens would be reliably and entirely eliminated from the chain resulting in total prevention of pathogens in beef and products thereof at the consumption time. Rather, a range of control interventions have to be applied at multiple points of the chain, so to achieve an acceptable, ultimate risk reduction. Various novel interventions were developed and evaluated during the project, and are briefly summarized in this paper. They include on-farm measures, risk categorisation of cattle presented for slaughter, hygiene-based measures and antimicrobial treatments applied on hides and/or carcasses during cattle slaughter, those applied during beef processing-storage-distribution, use of Time Temperature Integrator-based indicators of safety, and effective sanitation of surfaces.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo o desenvolvimento de um modelo que possa ser utilizado para facilitar a obtenção do preço do quilo de carcaça pago pelo consumidor. Com os dados coletados por levantamento mensal do preço dos diferentes cortes de carne em quatro supermercados de Santa Maria, durante o ano de 2005, foi gerado um modelo empírico para a obtenção do preço da carcaça pago no varejo. O modelo gerado permite estimar o valor do quilo de carcaça pago pelo consumidor a partir do preço de dois cortes praticados no varejo (Maminha e Coxão mole). Como o consumidor é o formulador final do preço, pode-se estimar os valores pecuniários apropriados por cada elo da cadeia, facilitando a negociação entre as partes envolvidas no negócio.
The aim of this study was to obtain a model that makes it easier to estimate the price paid per kilogram of carcass at consumer level. Thus, with the collected monthly data of meat cut prices in four supermarkets in the city of Santa Maria, during the year of 2005, an empirical model was made to estimate the price paid per kilogram of carcass. The model generated allows the estimation of prices paid per kilogram of carcass at consumer level for two cuts (Tail of Rump and Topside Cap On). Since the consumer determines the final value of the chain, it is possible to estimate the percentage that each component holds, which facilitates negotiation among these components.
