Food Control and Biosecurity, a volume in the Handbook of Food Bioengineering, is an essential resource to anyone in the food industry who needs to understand the complex issues in safety and quality control to prevent or reduce the spread of intentional or unintentional food-borne diseases and injuries. The book covers information from the exporter to transporter to importer to retailer and offers valuable tools to measure food quality addressing government standards and regulations for food production, processing and consumption. The book presents cutting edge methods of detection to detect hazardous compounds within foods including carcinogenic chemicals and hazardous compounds. Other related topics addressing food insecurity, and food defence are discussed. Identifies the latest import/export regulations related to food control and biosecurityProvides detection and analysis method to ensure a safe food supplyPresents risk assessment tools and prevention strategies for food safety and process control INDICE: 1.
