Continuing this excellent series, Microorganisms in Foods 7 describes the role of microbiological testing in modern food safety management systems. It explores how risk assessment and risk management can be used to establish goals - known as "tolerable levels of risk" or "food safety objectives" - for use in controlling foodborne illness, and provides guidelines for establishing effective management systems to control specific hazards in foods. It describes the respective roles of industry and government, recognizing that it is through their collective actions that effective food safety system

Responding to an estimated 14 million cases of food-borne disease that occur every year in the United States alone, the Food and Drug Administration and US Department of Agriculture have begun implementing new regulations and guidance for the microbial testing of foods. Similarly, Europe and other regions are implementing stricter oversight, as foodborne pathogens that cause deadly diseases such as e. coli 0157:H7 have raised the stakes everywhere. Food safety scientists have acted on this growing public health risk by developing improved media for the cultivation of bacteria, fungi, and virus

This volume, a title in the Society for Applied Bacteriology Technical Series, contains the papers presented at the Demonstration Meeting on Industrial Microbiology Testing, held at the Thames Polytechnic in 1985. The venture was the outcome of an expressed desire by members of the Society for Applied Bacteriology and the Institute of Petroleum’s Microbiology Group to hold a joint meeting that would appeal to delegates in both organizations.

This book neatly clarifies some of the perceived problems surrounding contamination control in pharmaceutical industry clean rooms. It helps manufacturers satisfy both domestic and international regulations and prevents their companies from suffering the consequences of non-compliance. It includes up-to-date information on microbiological contamination in sterile manufacturing, microbiological media fills, microbiological environmental monitoring, control in aqueous-based, non-sterile pharmaceuticals, rapid testing methods, and clean room contamination control. This book is a must for the micr
