“…Furthermore, since total protein was also strongly adsorbed on stainless steel surface, protein remaining on surface may serve nutrition to microorganisms for growth. Many factors such as type of detergent, mechanical force, and temperature can affect on the cleaning efficiency (Jeurnink & Brinkman, 1994;Nagata et al, 1995;Sakiyama et al, 1998). For efficient removal of adherent shrimp proteins, including tropomyosin, from stainless steel surface, further study on effect of those factors is necessary.…”
