Foodborne pathogens are more likely to cause infection and to result in serious consequences in vulnerable people than in healthy adults. People with some increase in susceptibility may form nearly 20% of the population in the UK and the USA. Conditions leading to increased susceptibility are listed. The main factors leading to foodborne disease caused by major pathogens are outlined and exampl...

Microbiological Safety Validation of Food Processes

The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) was signed into law on January 4, 2011 by President Obama. It represents the largest expansion of food safety requirements and FDA food safety authorities since the enactment of the original Food Drug & Cosmetic Act in 1938. It adds Section 418 to the US FD&C Act, requiring facilities to perform a hazard analysis and implement a preventive controls plan....

Microbiological Food Safety Surveillance in China

Microbiological food safety surveillance is a system that collects data regarding food contamination by foodborne pathogens, parasites, viruses, and other harmful microbiological factors. It helps to understand the spectrum of food safety, timely detect food safety hazards, and provide relevant data for food safety supervision, risk assessment, and standards-setting. The study discusses the mic...
