Description
The importance of food safety for human health has been widely recognized. The safety of foods of animal origin is particularly relevant because the large majority of foodborne diseases come from poultry, eggs, meat, milk and dairy products and fish. This textbook covers an integrated approach to this type of food production, hygiene and safety and shows how it results in concurrent benefits to animal well being, human health, protection of the environment and socioeconomics.The topics covered in Integrated Food Safety and Veterinary Public Health include ways of optimizing farming practices, controlling notifiable and zoonotic diseases, hygienic animal slaughter, food preservation and processing, food retailing and food handling in catering and domestic environments. This ebook will be of significant interest to students of veterinary medicine, animal science, environmental health and food science and technology. 398 p.
