G98-1374 Escherichia Coli: Testing For Process Control Verification: Beef Carcass Sampling, Mindy Brashears, Dianne Peters
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
In July 1996, the U.S.D.A. published the Final Rule on Pathogen Reduction for meat and poultry processing facilities. Its goal is to reduce the occurrence of food-borne pathogens in meat and poultry products. The rule requires carcass sampling for "generic" E. coli in meat and poultry slaughter operations. The U.S.D.A. has developed guidelines for acceptable, marginal and unacceptable amounts of E. coli to be used by the processor to determine if their process is controlling microbial hazards.

G98-1344 Basics Of Feeding Horses: Feeding Management, Kathleen P. Anderson
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

However, most stress comes from the daily pile-up of small aggravations and frustrations.
It is not "things" or events themselves, however, …
