FAIRBANKS - A fish processor is recalling about 150 pounds of salmon because of potential contamination.
Interior Alaska Fish Processors says its Santa's Smokehouse smoked keta salmon is subject to the recall.
An Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation test detected Listeria monocytogenes, a bacteria that can cause serious infections in young children, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems. The company says there have been no reports of illness.
The recalled product was sold in random-weight portions and packaged in clear plastic vacuum-sealed bags with the Santa's Smokehouse "teriyaki-style smoked keta salmon" printed on them. Only batch No. 637 is subject to the recall.
The product was distributed through the company's local retail store and through Internet gift packs between December 2007 and July 2008.
