摘要: Campylobacter and Salmonella species Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC; the majority of which are type O157:H7) efficiently enter human food chain from infected or colonized animals. Poultry contamination with and/or produce STEC have become major public health challenges. The global supply, allows us to purchase desired items throughout year, a growing interest in consuming fresh vegetables fruits, an increasing number persons who consume foods at restaurants all assure that threats associated these pathogens will continue. Antibiotic use by humans animals selects for development resistance among strains, promoting invasive forms infection complicating therapy illness. A comprehensive approach is needed focuses on disease surveillance control industry continuum, harvesting processing, distribution, later preparation eating establishments homes. Good Agricultural Practices, including Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point Program validation critical infection-control points stages cycle, coupled other safety interventions, irradiation certain higher-risk foods, should help improve quality regard microbials reduce disease.
