Abstract

Trials were carried out in order to check the viability of polyhexamethylene biguanide hydrochloride in the control of pathogenic and degenerating bacteria in carcass of chicken, as well as a spectrophotometric monitoring of the residual content of this polymer in the carcasses and viscera of chicken quenched with biguanide. The sanitizing power of this substance was high, although the previous analysis point out to the inefficacy of the residual monitoring method, due to the action of interferings.

KEY-WORDS: Polyhexamethylene biguanide hydrochloride; carcass of chicken; sanitizer.
