BACKGROUND As a big meat producer, China had a total meat output of 85.17 million tons in 2018, accounting for about 30% of the world's total meat output. A key procedure in meat production is to chill a livestock carcass after being slaughtered. The temperature of the livestock carcass immediately after being slaughtered is relatively high, therefore, measures must be taken to remove the heat inside the carcass in time to ensure the safety and edible quality of the meat. A chilling technology not only determines a chilling loss rate of the carcass, but also affects meat quality, and improper chilling method can cause the occurrence of defected meat, resulting in huge economic losses. Therefore, it is very important for the meat processing industry to improve the technology and reduce the chilling loss of the carcass and the energy consumption in a chilling process. Traditional carcass chilling methods include air chilling and spray chilling, but the chilling effects are different with different chilling process parameters. In general, the overall carcass chilling technology for the livestock in China lags behind that of those in developed countries, which has still relatively high pre-chilling loss and incidence of defected meat after the livestock is slaughtered. It is urgent to develop a new carcass chilling method to improve carcass quality and provide guarantee for the production of high-quality and safe meat products.

During chilling at 0°C, atomized spraying was performed on a surface of the carcass, an atomized spraying amount was that no water drops dripped from the carcass, and an environment where the carcass was located had an air flow rate of 0.8 m/s, and a humidity of 99%. <Embodiment 10> The chilling method was the same as that in the Embodiment 2, wherein an aperture of a spraying nozzle was 0.2 mm, a temperature of the mixed solution was 10°C, a chilling air temperature under the chilling condition of -30°C was -40°C, and an air flow rate in an environment was 3 m/s. During chilling at 0°C, atomized spraying was performed on a surface of the carcass, an atomized spraying amount was that no water drops dripped from the carcass, and an environment where the carcass was located had an air flow rate of 0.8 m/s, and a humidity of 99%. A particle diameter of an atomized spraying liquid was less than 0.1 mm. <Control example 1> The chilling method was the same as that in the Embodiment 4, wherein a concentration of the lactic acid used for spraying was 1%. <Control example 2> The chilling method was the same as that in the Embodiment 4, wherein a concentration of the lactic acid used for spraying was 1.7%. <Control example 3> The chilling method was the same as that in the Embodiment 4, wherein a concentration of the lactic acid used for spraying was 2%. <Control example 4> The chilling method is the same as that in the Embodiment 4, wherein a concentration of the lactic acid used for spraying was 2.5%. <Control example 5> The chilling method was the same as that in the Embodiment 5, wherein a concentration of the salt used for spraying was 0.5%. <Control example 6> The chilling method was the same as that in the Embodiment 5, wherein a concentration of the salt used for spraying was 0.8%. <Control example 7> The chilling method was the same as that in the Embodiment 5, wherein a concentration of the salt used for spraying was 1.5%. During the slaughtering process of livestock, the carcass may be contaminated with dust, feces, viscera contents, etc., resulting in contamination of the carcass surface, and without effective control, microorganisms can reproduce in large numbers, resulting in deterioration of meat quality. Therefore, controlling a number of microorganisms on the surface of the carcass during the chilling process is a key control point for meat safety. It can be seen from Table 1 that, washing by water with high pressure in the Embodiment 2 is more effective than washing by water with ordinary pressure in the Embodiment 1 in reducing the total plate count on the surface of the carcass, which has a promoting effect on the quality and safety of the carcass. Table 1 Results of Sterilization by Washing Total number of bacterial colonies(logio cfu/cm2)Coliform groups(logio cfu/cm )Embodiment 14.8a 290a Embodiment 23.9b 200b Note: different superscript letters in the same column indicate significant difference (P<0.05). Washing the carcass before chilling can remove surface contamination of the carcass during the slaughtering process. However, during the chilling process, the carcass is still inevitably contacted with microorganisms in the environment, thus reducing the quality and safety of the chilled carcass. Therefore, the reduction of loss and the improvement of quality and safety are technical bottlenecks that must be solved in carcass chilling. It can be seen from Table 2 that, spraying the carcass by an aqueous solution of 1.5% lactic acid in the Embodiment 4 and spraying the carcass by an aqueous solution of 0.8% salt in the Embodiment 5 can be more effective than spraying the carcass by water in the Embodiment 3 in reducing the number of microorganisms on the surface of the chilled carcass, thus improving the quality and safety of the chilled carcass. Unexpectedly, the mixed solution of 1.5% to 2% lactic acid and 0.8% salt used for spraying in the Embodiment 2, the Embodiment 6 and the Embodiment 8 can further reduce the number of microorganisms on the surface of the chilled carcass and achieve better effects. Table 2 Results of Sterilization by Spraying in Different Embodiments Total number of bacterial colonies (logio cfu/cm2)Coliform groups(logio cfu/cm2)Embodiment 34.4a 270a Embodiment 44.2b 240b Embodiment 54.3b 250b Embodiment 23.9C 200c Embodiment 63.6C 170c Embodiment 83.T180c Note: different superscript letters in the same column indicate significant difference (P<0.05). The carcass temperature of the livestock immediately after being slaughtered is relatively high, and measures must be taken to remove the heat inside the carcass in time. On one hand, it is because that a higher temperature is conducive to the growth of microorganisms, but is not conducive to the quality and safety control of subsequent processing such as carcass chilling, storage, cutting, etc., On the other hand, it is because that the carcass of the livestock after being slaughtered can undergo processes of rigor, post-rigor and ageing, thus improving a tenderness, a water holding capacity and a flavor of the meat. During this process, a pH of carcass is decreased, and a decreasing rate is related to the temperature change, which is an important indicator of carcass quality. Therefore, temperature control in the carcass chilling process has a decisive influence on the carcass quality. It can be seen from Table 3 that, the chilling losses produced by the chilling methods in the Embodiment 2, the Embodiment 6 and the Embodiment 8 are significantly lower than that in the Embodiment 7, while the water holding capacity and meat color scores of the chilled meat are significantly higher than that in the Embodiment 7, the total numbers of bacterial colonies on the carcass surface are effectively controlled, while the pH values are significantly lower than that in the Embodiment 7. In the Embodiment 9, during chilling at 0°C, atomized spraying is performed, which can further reduce the carcass chilling loss and the total number of bacterial colonies, and improve the water holding capacity, and in the Embodiment 10, various operating parameters and environmental conditions are controlled, which can improve the meat color score of the carcass.

In order to remove contaminants on the carcass surface during the slaughtering process, the carcass can be washed before chilling, and meanwhile, the number of microorganisms of the washed carcass during the chilling process shall be controlled within a range meeting the quality and safety requirements. Therefore, spraying with the lactic acid or the salt can achieve the two objects above to a certain extent. It can be seen from Table 4 and Table 5 that, an antibacterial effect is improved to a certain extent with the increase of the concentrations of the lactic acid and the salt used for spraying, but is not changed linearly as the increase of the concentrations and cannot meet the quality and safety requirements. Therefore, the composition of the solution 5 used for spraying needs to be further improved to increase the antibacterial effect of spraying.
