Salmonella : Prevalence, Risk Factors & Treatment Options, Hardback Book

Salmonella : Prevalence, Risk Factors & Treatment Options Hardback

Edited by Christopher B Hackett

Hardback

Description

The ability of various microorganisms to attach to surfaces and create biofilms on them is rather a cause of concern for many industries, including for those occupied with food production and processing.

Thus, the attachment of bacterial pathogens to food processing equipment is considered as an essential contributing factor in foodborne disease outbreaks, since this may ultimately lead to the contamination of food products.

Improperly cleaned surfaces promote soil build-up, and, in the presence of water, contribute to the development of microbial biofilms which may contain pathogenic bacteria, such as Salmonella.

Salmonella enterica is one of the most significant enteric foodborne bacterial pathogens, with host-adapted strains able to cause systemic human infections and persist for long periods of time, posing significant public health problems.

This book discusses the prevalence, risk factors and treatment options of Salmonella.
