Foodborne Diseases, a volume in the Handbook of Bioengineering series, covers the ever changing complex issues that have emerged in the food industry over the past decade. This is a solid reference with broad coverage to provide a foundation for a practical understanding of diseases and related industrial applications to help researchers and scientists manage foodborne diseases and prevent and control outbreaks. The book provides information of the most common and classical food-borne diseases, their emergence and inquiries along with the most investigated and successful strategies developed to combat these health-threatening conditions. Identifies the advances in biotechnology, emerging technologies, food safety, and quality control that impact foodborne diseasesExplores advances in vaccines to fight foodborne illnessAddresses Campylobacter, Listeria, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella, Vibrio and HelicobacterDiscusses biosensor based methods for determining foodborne pathogensIncludes molecular typing of major foodborne pathogens INDICE: 1.
