On 20 May 2025<\/strong>, Amerex participated in the technical conference of the ANICE Food Quality and Safety Group<\/a><\/strong>, held at the Official College of Veterinarians of Madrid (COLVEMA). The meeting brought together companies from the meat sector and established itself as a key forum for discussing the main technological and regulatory challenges in food safety.<\/p>\n

Representing Amerex, Alejandro Rodr\u00edguez<\/strong>, the company’s technical director, gave a presentation entitled \u2018Protective cultures against Listeria monocytogenes in meat products,\u2019<\/em><\/strong> in which he explained how our biotechnological solutions are capable of effectively inhibiting the growth of this pathogen, as well as other bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella<\/em>.<\/p>\n

During his presentation, Alejandro showed practical application results in foods such as p\u00e2t\u00e9s and cooked turkey slices<\/strong>, where the cultures developed by Amerex achieved significant reductions in Listeria spp<\/u><\/strong>. He also explained how these natural ferment-based ingredients also help to maintain the characteristic reddish colour of meat products<\/strong>, offering a visual and functional alternative to traditional nitrites.<\/p>\n

One of the highlights was the reminder that the ferments used by Amerex comply with the safety criteria established by international bodies<\/strong> such as EFSA and USDA, which guarantees their suitability for industrial applications.<\/p>\n

The conference also featured relevant presentations by experts from the Complutense University, AESAN, IRTA and Amcan, addressing issues such as the reduction of nitrites, new legislation on Listeria monocytogenes<\/em><\/u><\/strong>, dry-aging of meat and alternatives to smoke flavours.<\/p>\n

Amerex would like to thank ANICE for organising this much-needed forum to share knowledge and reinforce the sector’s commitment to innovation, food safety and sustainability.<\/strong><\/p>\n
