Despite advances in hygiene, food treatment, and food processing,
diseases caused by foodborne pathogens continue to constitute a
worldwide public health concern. Ensuring food safety to protect
public health remains a significant challenge in both developing and
developed nations. _Food Safety and Human Health_ provides a framework
to manage food safety risks and assure a safe food system.
Political, economic, and ecological changes have led to the
re-emergence of many foodborne pathogens. The globalization of food
markets, for example, has increased the challenge to manage the
microbial risks. This reference will help to identify potential new
approaches in the development of new microbiologically safe foods that
will aid in preventing food borne illness outbreaks and provides the
basic principles of food toxicology, food processing, and food safety.
_Food Safety and Human Health_ is an essential resource to help
students, researchers, and industry professionals understand and
address day-to-day problems regarding food contamination and safety.
* Encompasses the first pedagogic treatment of the entire range of
toxic compounds found naturally in foods or introduced by industrial
contaminatio
* Identifies areas of vital concern to consumers, such as
toxicological implications of food, and human health implications of
food processing
* Focuses on safety aspects of genetically modified foods and the
range of processing techniques along with the important food safety
laws
