Molecular Microbial Diagnostic Methods: Pathways to Implementation for the Food and Water Industry was developed by recognized and experienced highlevel scientists. It's a comprehensive and detailed reference that uncovers industry needs for the use of molecular methods by providing a brief history of water and food analysis for the pathogens of concern. It also describes the potential impact of current and cutting-edge molecular methods. This book discusses the advantages of the implementation of molecular methods, describes information on when and how to use specific methods, and presents why one should utilize them for pathogen detection in the routine laboratory. The content is also pertinent for anyone carrying out microbiological analysis at the research level, and for scientists developing methods, as it focuses on the requirements of end-users. Includes information on how to introduce and implement molecular methods for routine monitoring in food and water laboratories Discusses the importance of robust validation of molecular methods as alternatives to existing standard methods to help ensure the production of defendable results Highlights potential issues with respect to successful implementation of these methods

Enables readers to develop a practical understanding of food virology and its challenges Introduction to Food Virology presents a clear overview of the main principles and features of the field and provides information on many major foodborne viruses. Each virus is outlined with simple descriptions of its structure, morphology, and genomic identity, with information on how it is transmitted, what disease symptoms it can cause, and methods for detection and control. Written by a team of highly qualified international authors, Introduction to Food Virology includes information on: Potential emergence of new viral threats, highlighting the ongoing importance of food virologyEnteric viruses, which have been known to cause occasional foodborne outbreaks, and viruses which may have the potential to become foodborneDuration of virus persistence in various foods and on various preparation surfacesHow foodborne viruses may be eliminated or prevented from entering the food chain, with discussion of ongoing challengesInternational standards, with recommendations on how to optimally interpret the results of the current standard methodFree of excessive technical detail and written for both specialists and non-specialists alike, Introduction to Food Virology is a valuable resource for food safety managers, regulators, students, food service personnel, and others involved or interested in the microbial safety of the food supply chain and its impact on public health.
