Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -For example, bacteria from tainted meats can grow on the slicer blade and parts, and be transferred to uncontaminated meats and cheeses. To prevent cross contamination, all of the slicer parts must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized in between use or at a minimum of every four hours.
Detailed explanation-2: -Use sanitizer at the right temperature. If a sanitizer is not prepared and used with water of the correct temperature, the effectiveness of the sanitizer may be decreased. Mix sanitizer at the correct concentration. Give the sanitizer time.
