Risk Identification Rapid Detection Prevention and Control of Foodborne Pathogenic Microorganisms

<p>Foodborne pathogenic microorganisms as the culprits of various food borne diseases can be found in natural environment such as water soil air and in food chain and manufacturing process of food products. The pathogenic microorganisms found in food contamination include bacteria yeasts molds and viruses which can cause food spoilage or colonize the gastrointestinal tract by secreting corresponding toxins leading to foodborne illnesses such as stomach cramps nausea vomiting and even fatality. Foodborne illnesses have become more common over time posing a major threat to human health around the world. Public health issues caused by pathogenic microorganisms have attracted people 's attention which are more harmful to the healthcare system and the global economy raising public awareness of food safety. Therefore it is necessary to study risk identification rapid detection prevention and control of foodborne pathogenic microorganisms. Based on the increasing consumer demand for healthy and safe it would be interesting to report the latest research on the risk identification detection prevention and control of foodborne pathogenic microorganisms. The Special Issue of the journal Foods established a collection of recent research on Risk Identification Rapid Detection Prevention and Control of Foodborne Pathogenic Microorganisms. We cordially invited scientists researchers and other food professionals to submit the original reviews/research articles related to this special issue.</p>
