Pathogen Update


A review of important food related pathogens

12th May 2010
Highfield House, Doncaster


There is a race in public health between "our ability to detect pathogens and our ability to control them". Whilst some pathogens have become regarded as "traditional problems", it is estimated that a new food related pathogen is identified every 16 months.  This one-day seminar reviews the broad spectrum of food pathogens and then focuses on four of the most important so-called "emerging pathogens" ie E.coli O157, campylobacter, norovirus, and listeria.
