Chemical specialist Hawkins was at the American Meat Institute (AMI) show in Dallas to demonstrate its latest developments in the fight against bacteria.
According to the company, its e(Lm)inate formula is a new line of “low-inclusion antimicrobial blends”, which includes combinations of organic salts.
