Pet food manufacturers also use ACS Technology SafepHix brand Acidic Calcium Sulfate, ACS 100, (aka Acidified Calcium Sulfate) as a pet food acidulant and to manufacturer pet products and pet feed. This listeria salmonella and food borne illnesses prevention is desired by the feed manufacturer as well as pet products suppliers. Food microbiology has shown that good food hygiene and food safe temperatures along with use of ACS Technology Inc. SafepHix brand Acidic Calcium Sulfate, ACS 100, will control Salmonella Listeria, diseases in food and other hazards in food. This has proven beneficial for controlling Salmonella and Campylobacter with use of ACS Technology SafepHix brand Acidic Calcium Sulfate, Freshphix or pHesh-phix 100, for antimicrobial effectiveness vegetable wash and vegetable cleaner on whole vegetables. Food industry leaders implement a food protection program using ACS Technology SafepHix brand ACS 100, acidic calcium sulfate, to insure quality control of food and any disease of bacteria. Safety in the food industry is paramount for food quality management and quality control of meat and poultry. Preventing bacterial food contamination, bacteria food poisoning or foodborne illnesses, such a campylobacter, Listeria m or salmonella food illness is essential food safety in food industry.
