Download or read book Advances in science and risk assessment tools for Vibrio parahaemolyticus and V vulnificus associated with seafood written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2021-07-20 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globally, the Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio vulnificus represent important human pathogens associated with the consumption of seafood. In response to the requests for scientific advice from Codex Committee on Food Hygiene (CCFH), risk assessments for the pathogens V. vulnificus, V. cholerae, V. parahaemolyticus and guidance on methods for the detection of Vibrio spp. with seafood have been conducted and published previously by JEMRA. In order to provide an update on the state-of-the-art advice regarding risk assessment for V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus in seafood, an expert meeting was convened. Several critical developments in the last decade were subsequently noted by the expert working group: 1) The emergence of highly pathogenic strains; 2) In response to climate change, there has been a significant geographical spread regarding when and where these seafood-associated Vibrio infections; 3) Demographic considerations are very important; 4) A range of new approaches for best practice; and 5) A range of new methods, such as those utilising genomics and satellite imagery. This report describes the output of that expert meeting.

This book was released on 2020-02-10 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an increase in reported outbreaks and cases of foodborne disease attributed to pathogenic Vibrio species. As a result, there have been several instances where the presence of pathogenic Vibrio spp. in seafood has led to a disruption in international trade. A number of Vibrio spp. are increasingly being recognized as potential human pathogens. The food safety concerns associated with these microorganisms have led to the need for microbiological risk assessment for their control. This report provides the review of risk assessment of existing tools for V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus in oysters and different bivalve molluscan species, the available information on testing methodology and recommend microbiological methods to monitor the levels of pathogenic Vibrio spp. in seafood and/or water. Such tools are envisioned to support countries in their efforts to use risk-based approaches in the selection of control measures appropriate for their seafood species, primary production and post-harvest practices. This volume and others in this Microbiological Risk Assessment Series contain information that is useful to both risk assessors and risk managers, the Codex Alimentarius Commission, governments and regulatory authorities, food producers and processers and other institutions and individuals with an interest in Vibrio spp. and its control.
Download or read book Microbiological Risk Assessment Guidance for food written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2021-06-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document provides guidance on undertaking risk assessment of all microbial hazards which may adversely affect human health in foods along a food chain. This document is also intended to provide practical guidance on a structured framework for carrying out risk assessment of microbiological hazards in foods, focussing on the four components including hazard identification, hazard characterization, exposure assessment and risk characterization. These guidelines therefore represent the best practice at the time of their preparation, and it is hoped that they will help stimulate further developments and disseminate the current knowledge.

This book was released on 2021-05-10 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The FAO/WHO expert meeting held in December 2014 considered microbial contamination of lipid-based ready-to-use foods (RUFs) and the risk of foodborne infections in the malnourished population of children that consume RUFs. The goals of the expert meeting were to: review the status of the microbiological safety of lipid-based RUFs used to manage moderate acute malnutrition and severe acute malnutrition; conduct a comprehensive risk assessment; provide guidance to producers on the general approach and requirements for manufacturing RUFs that are safe for their intended use; and provide guidance to the agencies that purchase RUFs on how best to judge their microbiological safety. The expert committee described three approaches that purchasers of RUFs might use to establish microbiological criteria to assure the safety of RUFs and to communicate to manufacturers their safety expectations. These approaches are: (i) reference to existing standards established for similar low-moisture foods; (ii) determining an acceptable increase in risk over the pre-existing baseline of illness from other sources of exposure; and (iii) process verification sampling using the moving window technique. The microbiological criteria derived by each of these approaches accomplish different purposes, and which is most appropriate is determined by the conditions of manufacture and use.
Download or read book Shiga Toxin producing Escherichia Coli STEC and Food written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strains of pathogenic Escherichia coli that are characterized by their ability to produce Shiga toxins are referred to as Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC). STEC are an important cause of foodborne disease and infections have been associated with a wide range of human clinical illnesses ranging from mild non-bloody diarrhoea to bloody diarrhoea (BD) and haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) which often includes kidney failure. A high proportion of patients are hospitalized, some develop end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and some die. The information requested by CCFH is divided into three main areas: the global burden of disease and source attribution; hazard identification and characterization; and monitoring, including the status of the currently available analytical methods. This report provides an overview of the work undertaken in response to the request from the CCFH and provides the conclusions and advice of the Expert Group based on the currently available information.
Download or read book Statistical aspects of microbiological criteria related to foods written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microbiological Criteria have been used in food production and the food regulatory context for many years. While the food-specific aspects of microbiological criteria are well understood, the mathematical and statistical aspects are often less well appreciated, which hinders the consistent and appropriate application of microbiological criteria in the food industry. This document has been developed to begin redressing this situation. A particular aim of this document is to illustrate the important mathematical and statistical aspects of microbiological criteria, but with minimal statistical jargon, equations and mathematical details. It is hoped that the resulting document and support materials make this subject more accessible to a broad audience. This volume and others in this Microbiological Risk Assessment Series contain information that is useful to both food safety risk assessors and risk managers, the Codex Alimentarius Commission, governments and regulatory agencies, food producers and processers and other institutions and individuals with an interest in Microbiological Criteria. This volume in particular aims to support food business operators, quality assurance managers, food safety-policy makers and risk managers.

This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consistent with the need to provide safe food for young children, particularly during the complementary feeding period between 6 and 24 months and the period of rapid development to age 59 months, FAO and WHO convened a technical meeting in FAO headquarters, Rome, Italy, from 11 to 14 December 2012 that addressed the microbial safety of ready-to-use foods (RUF) for the management of acute malnutrition. The meeting was held at the request of the WFP and UNICEF to help them formulate a science-based response to the finding of Cronobacter spp. in lipid-based RUF and to provide guidance on appropriate microbiological specifications to include among other purchase requirements to enhance the safety of lipid-based RUF. This report provides an overview of the assessment of the risk posed by Cronobacter spp in this product and provides guidance to agencies distributing the product as well of the producers on how to manage this problem and minimise the risk to the vulnerable consuming popula tion.
Download or read book Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli STEC and food attribution characterization and monitoring written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2019-02-18 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infections are a substantial health issue worldwide. Circa 2010, foodborne STEC caused > 1 million human illnesses, 128 deaths, and ~ 13,000 Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs). Targeting interventions appropriately relies on identifying those strains of greatest risk to human health and determining the types of foods that cause STEC infections. There are hundreds of STEC serotypes; however, based on the evidence gathered during the review, the Expert Group concluded that the serotype of the STEC strain should not be considered a virulence criterion. All STEC strains with the same serotype should not be assumed to carry the same virulence genes and to pose the same risk, as many STEC virulence genes are mobile and can be lost or transferred to other bacteria. this report proposes a set of criteria for categorizing the potential risk of severity of illness associated with a STEC in food is recommended based on evidence of virulence gene profiles and associations with clinical severity. The criteria could be applied by risk managers in a risk-based management approach to control STEC in food. While ruminants and, other land animals are considered the main reservoirs for STEC, various largescale outbreaks have been linked to other foods. Thus, the report also addresses source attribution of foodborne STEC infections globally in order to inform the development of international standards by the Codex Alimentarius on the control of STEC, and in particular identify the foods which should be the focus of those standards. Finally it provides a review of monitoring programmes and methodology for STEC which can serve as a reference for countries planning to develop such programmes.
Download or read book Selection and application of methods for the detection and enumeration of human pathogenic halophilic Vibrio spp in seafood written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the challenges to data collection to inform food safety decision making and monitor the implementation and efficacy of control measures to manage specific food safety is the availability of the appropriate methodology. The development of methods for the isolation and identific of pathogenic Vibrio spp. in seafoods is evolving quickly. This often means that methods become more sensitive and efficient but the cost may also increase. However the pace of development also means that there is not always adequate time to to comprehensively validate a method for a particular purpose. This publication aims to provide guidance on the selection on the most appropriate method to meet a particular purpose and how in a constantly changing environment some local validation work can be undertaken to ensure a method meets the current needs of a regulator, industry or risk assessor.
