The book covers basic biology, genetics and genomics, epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, control, and prevention. It showcases recent research that can then be used to spark further breakthroughs. The book addresses challenging issues in food pathogen detection. It details individual foodborne protists and helminthes, with each chapter following a similar format for a consistent presentation of information. It discusses topics ranging from basic biology, genetics and genomics, molecular detection and typing, and pathogenesis to epidemiology, molecular epidemiology, treatment and prevention, among other current concerns. It also details the methods used to diagnose the infection, characterize the pathogen, and detect parasites in three food commodities: meats, water, and fresh produce. With chapters written by experts in their respective fields, the book presents a reliable roadmap for future development of improved, innovative biological and molecular methods for analysis of foodborne parasitic pathogens. A handy, comprehensive reference on all aspects of biology of foodborne parasites, it highlights research needs and directions, helping you develop advanced diagnostic tools and new intervention measures.

Book Synopsis Foodborne Parasitic Protozoa by : Huw V. Smith
Download or read book Foodborne Parasitic Protozoa written by Huw V. Smith and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human burden of infection caused by food-borne protozoan parasites is enormous; billions of people are infected world-wide and the DALY (disability-adjusted life year) toll due to these infections is correspondingly huge. Whilst some infections may result in mild, relatively insignificant clinical disease, others may be seriously debilitating or even fatal. This book provides detailed insights into those protozoa who are currently most relevant regarding food-borne transmission. This book is intended to be of use and interest for a range of professionals, from researchers to regulators, from diagnosticians to parasitologists to food technologists; it should be read by those who work in academia, within the various branches of the food industry and food research associations, in government regulatory agencies, and in environmental health departments.

Book Synopsis Foodborne Parasites by : Ynés R. Ortega
Download or read book Foodborne Parasites written by Ynés R. Ortega and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The globalization and commercialization of the food system has unintentionally led to the introduction of new foodborne parasites in countries worldwide. Fortunately, advances in detection and control are providing the basis for a better understanding of the biology and control of parasitic infections, and this in turn will likely contribute to the reduction and hopefully elimination of parasitic foodborne outbreaks. Building on the first edition, this completely revised second edition of Foodborne Parasites covers the parasites most associated with foodborne transmission and therefore of greatest global public health relevance. The volume examines protozoa and their subgroups: the amoeba, coccidia, flagellates and ciliates. Chapters also address Trypanosoma cruzi, recently recognized as an emerging foodborne protozoan. The helminth section is expanded to cover teniasis, cysticercosis, hydatidosis, and the trematodes and nematodes including Angiostrongylus, which is present worldwide. Finally, the editors examine the burden and risk assessment determinations that have provided a scientific framework for developing policies for the control of foodborne parasites.

Book Synopsis Giardia as a Foodborne Pathogen by : Lucy J. Robertson
Download or read book Giardia as a Foodborne Pathogen written by Lucy J. Robertson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-24 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although widely recognized as an important waterborne pathogen, Giardia duodenalis can also be transmitted by contamination of food. The same properties of this protozoan parasite that mean that water is an excellent transmission vehicle are also important for foodborne transmission. These include the low infective dose, the high number of cysts that are excreted, and the robustness of these transmission stages. However, many more outbreaks of waterborne giardiasis have been reported than foodborne outbreaks. This is probably partly due to epidemiological tracing being much more difficult for foodborne outbreaks than waterborne outbreaks, and the number of persons exposed to infection often being fewer. Nevertheless, the potential importance of foodborne transmission is gradually being recognized, and a wide range of different foodstuffs have been associated with those outbreaks that have been recorded. Additionally, various factors mean that the potential for foodborne transmission is becoming of increasing importance: these include the growth of international food trade, a current trend for eating raw or very lightly cooked foods, and the rise in small-scale organic farms, where there the possibility for contamination of vegetable crops with animal faeces may be greater.
