  14. A review on microbiological decontamination of fresh produce with nonthermal plasma

    • Journal of Applied Microbiology

    • Summary

      Food safety is a critical public health issue for consumers and the food industry because microbiological contamination of food causes considerable social and economic burdens on health care. Most foodborne illness comes from animal production, but as of the mid-1990s in the United States and more recently in the European Union, the contribution of fresh produce to foodborne outbreaks has rapidly increased.

  15. Toxins, Vol. 9, Pages 46: Deoxynivalenol Exposure in Norway, Risk Assessments for Different Human Age Groups

    • Toxins

    • Deoxynivalenol (DON) is the most common mycotoxin in Norwegian cereals, and DON is detected in most samples of crude cereal grain and cereal food commodities such as flour, bran, and oat flakes. The Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food Safety assessed the risk for adverse effects of deoxynivalenol (DON) in different age groups of the domestic population. This review presents the main results from the risk assessment, supplemented with some recently published data.
