A method for producing an electrolyzed water composition for use in reducing and/or eliminating food-borne pathogens on or in food substrates. An aqueous electrolyte solution with at least one anhydrous alkali metal carbonate salt and at least one alkali metal chloride salt is used. The aqueous is electrolyte solution is introduced into an electrolytic cell comprising a plurality of boron-doped diamond (BDE, BDD) electrodes; a power supply is operated to apply a predetermined voltage to the electrolyte solution within the electrolytic cells to produce electrolysed water with dissolved ozone (03) having anti-microbial properties. The water may be used in the preparation of poultry carcases. |
