An essential guide for anyone in the food industry, research, or regulation who needs to ensure or enforce food safety, the guide delves into the nature of illnesses, the epidemiology of pathogens, and current detection, prevention, and control methods. The guide further includes chapters on new technologies for microbial detection and the globalization of the food supply, seafood toxins, and other miscellaneous agents"--Provided by publisher."A comprehensive and accessible reference on the pathogens - bacteria, viruses, and parasites - most commonly responsible for foodborne illness"--Provided by publisher.FoodMicrobiologyCongressesFoodborne diseasesCongressesFoodMicrobiologyFoodborne diseases664.001/579TEC012000bisacshLabbé Ronald G.1946-1676921García Santos1961-856404MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807342203321Guide to foodborne pathogens4043401UNINA
