Abstract:: ... Within 2 months, two water sources in a karst area in Switzerland were sampled 9 times each, and analyzed by real-time PCR for 6 EHEC O-types, Shiga-like-toxin (stx1 and stx2) and intimin (eae) genes. With the exception of O111, 5 O-types were recorded regularly and at high frequencies (O26: 33.3 %; O157: 33.3 %; O104: 66.6 %; O103: 72.2 %; O145: 94.4 %). Genes for Shiga-like-toxins and intimin we ...

Abstract:: ... The microbial safety of dried mushrooms, a commonly consumed food in Asia, is usually neglected. Many studies have highlighted low moisture foods as potential sources of foodborne pathogens. In this study, a total of 72 retailed dried edible mushrooms (Lentinula edodes, Tremella fuciformis, Auricularia polytricha, and Auricularia auricula-judae) from local markets were analysed. Auricularia polytr ...

Abstract:: ... In recent years, food safety and environmental concerns became a significant issue, especially in developing countries. Pesticides have been applied broadly in agriculture to enhance the production and quality of the agricultural products and in order to decrease the energy cost. Pesticides are non-biodegradable chemical compounds and commonly used in agriculture for pest control and to increase y ...

Abstract:: ... Imported food safety and related matters is a topic which causes extreme concern for the consumers of Taiwan. This article aims to analyze the results of border inspection of imported foods from 2011 to 2017, to gain understanding of risk factors, product categories, and countries of origin of imported foods in the past 7 years. The greatest number of batches of noncompliant products (including hy ...

Subject:: cities; consumer attitudes; farm to fork; food industry; food safety; food supply chain; foods; surveys; traceability; willingness to pay
Abstract:: ... Consumers have become increasingly concerned about food safety due to numerous food scandals and incidents over the past two decades. Consequently, they demand to be informed of the processes involved along the food supply chain. Employing a traceability system, tracing food from ‘farm to fork’, has been embraced by the food industries and governments as an important tool to restore and increase c ...
