The methodology used in this study for preparation of the Brazilian fresh sausage sample (e.g., elimination of the casing before inoculation of the bacteria and the bacteriophage) was chosen because the casing of the meat product constitutes a barrier for the artificial inoculation of the bacteria and the bacteriophage. Considering the fact that sausage is frequently consumed under- cooked we recommend the addition of the bacteriophage in the industrial process just before the casing of the product.
