Application of new technologies, such as vision systems and Listeria Action Cards, will help meat processors reduce product contamination
Gry Carl Terrell M.Sc. Marchen Hviid M.Sc. Marta Hernandez-Jover Ph.D.
June 10, 2022

The safety of meat continues to be a challenge, mainly due to the ever-increasing line speeds and customer expectations that are approaching zero tolerance toward any irregularities. Listeria-free fresh meat is being requested in the market, and even small pieces of soft plastic can cause major recalls, loss of reputation, and loss of business for meat producers. In this article, the authors present new approaches to addressing well-known and emerging challenges from physical and microbiological risks in the meat industry.

Cyber as a Vital Element in Comprehensive Food Safety and Defense Programs

Food safety professionals must be aware of new challenges and vulnerabilities
Robert A. Norton Ph.D. N.C. Simmons
June 10, 2022

Cyber is the backbone for food and agriculture defense. Adversaries have the means, opportunity, and motivation to break the cyber backbone at will. If or when adversaries carry out an attack of large magnitude, the result could be a massive compromise of food safety, food defenses, and food security. To avoid that dark scenario, agriculture and food companies must properly prepare for a different kind of assault. The place to start is with their own cyber defense systems.

Linda J. ODierno Michael Ciaramella
June 10, 2022

Seafood processors, packers, and warehouses comply with the mandatory requirements of the Food and Drug Administration's Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP). This article takes a deep dive into the many regulations that make U.S. farm-raised seafood one of the safest, healthiest, and most sustainable foods available to the consumer.

Addressing Misconceptions about Sampling and Testing of Leafy Greens

Addressing Misconceptions about Sampling and Testing of Leafy Greens

Manufacturer sampling of leafy greens is characterized by five common misconceptions
Eric Wilhelmsen, Ph.D.
June 10, 2022

The food industry recognizes that consumers provide a very high level of fitness-for-purpose testing when they use products. Some shrinkage is, of course, involved in this process, but this consumer sampling will always reach beyond what is possible for a manufacturer. Instead, manufacturers make a more careful study of samples that are expected to be representative of what is delivered to the consumer. The selection of these samples, including the common misconceptions around the sampling of leafy greens, is the focus of this article.

Biofilm: A Contemporary Challenge to Food Safety

Biofilms, which can be resistant to disinfectants and sanitizers, remain a significant public health-related issue in the food industry
Manjeet Sharan M.V.Sc.
June 10, 2022

Biofilm remains a significant public health-related issue in the food industry. The group behavior of pathogens results in resistant behaviors, including for commonly used disinfectants and antibiotics. Through the food supply chain, these pathogens can easily enter into the human and animal populations, making it imperative to understand the biofilm formation dynamics of these pathogens and how to prevent and control their formation.

Supplier Food Safety: Boots on the Ground and Going Beyond the Checklist

A higher level of risk assessment requires a closer level of supplier scrutiny
Andrew Kesler
June 8, 2022

Food companies that prepare fresh food items often source individual ingredients from primary suppliers. The food safety risk is typically controlled at primary supplier plants or farms; however, the food safety stakes are high. It is necessary to have "boots on the ground" to assess how food safety and quality programs are integrated with the front-line operation for those suppliers who mitigate food safety risk on the behalf of a receiving company.
