Antimicrobial Resistance and Food Safety: Methods and Techniques

Antimicrobial Resistance and Food Safety: Methods and Techniques introduces antimicrobial resistant foodborne pathogens, their surveillance and epidemiology, emerging resistance and resistant pathogens. This analysis is followed by a systematic presentation of currently applied methodology and technology, including advanced technologies for detection, intervention, and information technologies. This reference can be used as a practical guide for scientists, food engineers, and regulatory personnel as well as students in food safety, food microbiology, or food science. Includes analysis of all major pathogens of concernProvides many case studies and examples of fundamental research findingsPresents recent advances in methodologies and analytical softwareDemonstrates risk assessment using information technologies in food-borne pathogens INDICE: 1.
