Resumen
Descripción
During the past ten years, considerable advancements have been achieved in the development of quantitative risk assessments for microbial pathogens in the food supply. More recently, new risk-based management concepts and approaches have been introduced, including the application of food safety objectives (FSOs), performance objectives (POs), and performance criteria (PCs) in order to relate public health goals to the level of stringency required for food safety measures and systems. From these parameters, food safety controls such as process criteria, product criteria and microbiological criteria may be derived. Risk assessments provide the basis for risk-based management options, however, guidelines, methods and practical examples of using risk assessment outputs toward these goals are lacking.
