Basic cleaning compositions using toxicologically-acceptable ingredients for treating food such as produce, e.g., fruits and vegetables, and edible animal proteins are provided. Liquid formulations comprising anionic and/or nonionic detergent surfactant such as potassium alkyl sulfate, that does not affect palatability, electrolyte to provide at least about 0.04 molarity of cations and basic buffer to provide a pH of at least 8.5 are applied to food products immediately before consumption and can significantly reduce microorganism contamination in less than about one minute. The food can be consumed without rinsing.

La présente invention concerne des compositions de nettoyage basiques utilisant des ingrédients acceptables sur le plan toxicologique destinées au traitement de produits, par exemple des fruits et légumes, et de protéines animales alimentaires. Des formulations liquides comprenant un tensioactif détergent anionique et ou non ionique, tel qu'un potassium alkyle sulfate, qui n'affecte pas les caractères organoleptiques, un électrolyte afin d'obtenir une molarité en cations d'au moins environ 0,04 et un tampon basique afin d'obtenir un pH d'au moins 8,5, sont appliquées à des produits alimentaires immédiatement avant leur consommation et peuvent réduire de manière importante leur contamination en micro-organismes en moins d'environ une minute. L'aliment peut être consommé sans obligation de rinçage préalable.
