US Food Safety Agency to Verify Shiga Toxin-Producing E. coli in Raw Beef Products

The US Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) plans to conduct verification procedures, including sampling and testing, to ensure control of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) in certain raw beef products, following a determination that STEC and E. coli O157:H7 are adulterants of non-intact raw beef products under the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA).
