A Trusted Resource, Now More Essential Than Ever

Environmental monitoring is a critical component of food safety programs, involving sampling and testing the environment and equipment within a food manufacturing facility to help prevent cross-contamination of finished products. The Second Edition Neogen Environmental Monitoring Handbook builds on the success of its predecessor with three new chapters covering:

• Using environmental monitoring to validate non-process controls and prerequisite programs
• Best practices for conducting root cause analysis after contamination events
• Data management and utilization in environmental monitoring programs
