Food safety is a scientific discipline describing handling, preparation, and storage of food in ways that prevent foodborne illness. This includes a number of routines that should be followed to avoid potentially severe health hazards. Food can transmit disease from person to person as well as serve as a growth medium for bacteria that can cause food poisoning. With its overview of the cutting-edge technologies and introduction of sophisticated technologies, this book illuminates how technologies from other disciplines can be developed into new approaches to food quality evaluation.
