Unsafe food and water…

Annual Death Estimates

  • Global: 2 million people
  • South-East Asia Region: 700 000 children

Indian Scenario: Estimates not clear

  • Compounding factors in India
  • 1. High Population Density
  • 2. High density of tropical live-stock
  • 3. Favorable environment for disease transmission
  • 4. Recent data- 8 outbreaks associated with emerging and

reemerging diseases of which 6 are of zoonotic origin Attributes: Contaminated by bacteria, viruses, parasites or chemical substances

Why is Microbial Safety a big Challenge???

12/01/2015 Scientific Approaches...Food Safety 4

  • Microbes are more ubiquitous and non-

uniform in distribution

  • It has the ability to multiply, mutate, adapt

and release toxins as it gets the opportunity

  • Huge fear of unknown

Surveillance Programs

The CDC way:

Different Platforms

  • FoodNet : Associated with active surveillance
  • NORS (National Outbreak Reporting system)- A Web-based

program wherein national, state and local public health departments are primarily responsible for identifying and investigating outbreaks

  • FOOD (Food Outbreak Online Database) –Surveillance

team analyses the outbreak data and makes it available using this online tool

  • PulseNet: Identifies cause and epidemiological spread of

the microbe using molecular fingerprinting

Our Tools for Effetive Surveillane…

  • Capacity building
  • Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment

(QMRA)

  • Advance Methods: Field, Rapid, Molecular, E-

platforms

  • Regulations and monitoring

Capacity building

12/01/2015 Scientific Approaches...Food Safety 10

  • Establishment of Food Safety & Standards Authority
  • f India (FSSAI )- a key milestone for the country
  • Identify, create centers for excellence at colleges and

universities using globally accepted quality management

  • systems. Special training and methods for:
  • Sample processing of indigenous foods
  • Microbiological Risk Assessment
  • Accuracy, Precision, Sensitivity, & Reproducibility
  • Learning from Healthcare/ diagnostics industry?

SLIDE 11

Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment

  • QMRA based Tools closes the loop right from Hazard

Identification to

  • Risk Communication,
  • Through risk assessment, and exposure assessment

using dose-response models and risk management

Advantages: Integrated- involves all stakeholders, thus holistic Quantitative- thus reliable/comparable data Cost effective- compilation of existing data

Setting Processing Goals by Industry

  • Preservation strategies: Physical, chemical, Biological, packaging, Safety by

Design

  • Classical case: Pasteurization Wine...Dairy industry

Food Spoilage Food Safety

  • Processing Goals:
  • Understanding of microbial behaviour to the food matrix to enhance shelf

life

  • Acquire Knowledge of the microbial and food environment interplay though

experimentations using principles of Predictive Microbiology.

  • Including the right choice of test cultures, will not only assist in defining

the shelf-life of foods, but also helps in assessing pathogen behaviour, ensuring consumer safety.

  • Predictive microbiology also referred as The Quatitatie Miroial

Eology is ased o the preise that the resposes of iroial populations to environmental factors are reproducible; and this response under different environmental conditions can be summarized as equations

  • r mathematical models and applied to foods with similar environmental

conditions.

  • Need to create an ecosystem
  • Food borne illness investigations: same rigor as crime

tracing

  • Expertise: Food Scientists, Microbiologists, Biochemist,

Nutritionists, Chemists, Mathematicians, Statisticians, Engineers, Legal, Economists, Social scientists

  • Govt: Establish Food safety network of national and

international scientists.

  • Govt: Enforcement for domestic market with same rigor

as export foods
