The accelerated globalization of the food supply, coupled with toughening government standards, is putting global food production, distribution, and retail industries under a high-intensity spotlight. High-publicity cases about foodborne illnesses over recent years have heightened public awareness of food safety issues, and momentum has been building to find new ways to detect and identify foodborne pathogens and eliminate food-related infections and intoxications. This extensively revised 4e covers how the incidence and impact of foodborne diseases is determined, foodborne intoxications with an introduction noting common features among these diseases and control measures that are applicable before and after the basic foodstuff is harvested.

The size and complexity of the food industry’s transportation, retail, and food service sectors are immense. Over 16 million Americans are employed in over 1 million retail establishments nationwide, contributing more than $1 trillion to the US economy every year. Similar to growers and food manufacturers, food employees working in food transit, food service, and retail food establishments have a responsibility to use proper food handling practices that reduce foodborne illness risks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified five key risk factors that contribute to foodborne illness. These include obtaining food from unsafe sources, poor personal hygiene, inadequate cooking, improper holding of food, and contaminated food surfaces and equipment. Results of studies that have evaluated risk in transportation, retail, and food service operations correlate well with the CDC risk factors. As a result, effective food safety programs must actively control risk by employing time/temperature control, good personal hygiene, cross-contamination control, and effective cleaning/sanitizing programs. Education and changing behavior of food employees are the most important prerequisites for successful risk reduction.

Estimating the human health impact of foodborne disease is a complex task; it requires data from many sources and relies on many assumptions. Using data from surveillance, surveys, and other sources, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that major known pathogens and unspecified agents transmitted by food result in an estimated 47.8 million illnesses, 127,839 hospitalizations, and 3037 deaths each year in the United States. Several other countries have estimated foodborne disease burden using various measures, including disease incidence, the numbers of persons with sequelae of foodborne infections, and economic costs. In 2007, the World Health Organization launched an initiative to estimate the global burden of foodborne disease as an advocacy tool for food safety policy. Estimating the burden of foodborne disease can assist with policy formation and evaluation of the effect of interventions.

Streptococci (specifically, Lancefield group A streptococci, or Streptococcus pyogenes) are among the most common bacterial causes of pharyngitis. The microorganism is generally transmitted by respiratory droplets, fomites, or direct contact with infected skin lesions. However, streptococci can also be transmitted by food, with infected persons developing signs and symptoms of pharyngitis; CDC has estimated that there are over 10,000 such cases annually in the United States. In reported outbreaks infected food handlers have generally been the source of contamination, and there is often a history of poor or inadequate refrigeration of the implicated food. While recent foodborne outbreaks have been primarily associated with group A streptococci, illness has also been associated with group C and G strains, and there are suggestions that strains in other Lancefield groups can be transmitted by food or animal contact.

Microbial food safety risk assessment is a systematic approach to aid our understanding of complex food systems and to translate the potential presence of pathogens in the food production, processing, and preparation environments into statements of the likelihood and magnitude of a food safety risk, in terms of adverse public health outcomes. The Codex Alimentarius Commission, the international body responsible for defining risk assessment principles and practices for all foodborne hazards, endorses a framework for risk assessment that provides a structured format and process for MRA. However, this guidance is not intended to be prescriptive but allows for different approaches and the use of novel analytical tools for assessing risk, to translate scientific data and knowledge into practical information to better inform managers and decision-makers when dealing with the many challenges that arise in the complex field of food safety.

Clostridium perfringens is a leading cause of foodborne illness, though cases are widely under-reported because of the mild nature of the gastrointestinal illness, which consists of diarrhea and abdominal cramps. These appear 8–24 hours following ingestion of large numbers of vegetative cells in temperature-abused protein foods, typically meat and poultry. Cells sporulate in the small intestine, producing an enterotoxin. The ability of C. perfringens to grow at elevated temperatures, produce spores, and reproduce rapidly contributes to its role as an important cause of foodborne illness.
