    Risk assessments of Salmonella in eggs and broiler chickens - Interpretative summary. Microbiological Risk Assessment Series (MRA) 1 2002
    This volume contains monographs on risk assessment of Salmonella in eggs and broiler chickens that have been prepared and reviewed by an international team of scientists. During their preparation input was received from several international fora including expert consultations and Codex Alimentarius committee meetings as well as via public and peer review. The monographs in this volume comprise data and methodology relevant to the four steps of risk assessment - hazard identification, ex posure assessment, hazard characterization and risk characterization - of Salmonella in eggs and broiler chickens. They include information on the efficacy of some of the possible risk management options for controlling these pathogens in eggs and broiler chickens. This volume and others in the Microbiological Risk Assessment series contain information that is useful to risk managers such as the Codex Alimentarius, governments and food regulatory agencies, scientists, food producers and in dustries and other people or institutions working in the area of microbiological hazards in foods, their impact on human health and food trade and their control.

    This risk assessment has been elaborated over a number of years. A number of national risk assessments that were available or being finalized when this work was initiated in 2001 were used as a basis from which to elaborate this risk assessment. In the course of its development, the risk assessment has been reviewed by two expert consultations—in 2001 and 2002—and been presented in various forums, including the Codex Committee on Food Hygiene and some international scientific conferences and mee tings. Finally, it was subjected to peer review in 2006. Comments and feedback received at each of these steps have been taken into account in the finalization of the risk assessment.

    Risk assessment of Campylobacter spp. in broiler chickens and Vibrio spp. in seafood
    Report of a Joint FAO/WHO Expert - Consultation - Bangkok, Thailand 9 August 2002
    2003
    Also available in:

    The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) convened an expert consultation on “Risk assessment of Campylobacter spp. In broiler chickens and Vibrio spp. in seafood” in the FAO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (RAP), Bangkok, Thailand on 5 - 9 August 2002. The list of participants is presented in Annex 1. Mr Dong Qingsong, FAO Deputy Regional Representative for Asia and the Pacific and Officer-in-charge, RAP, opened the meetin g on behalf of the two sponsoring organizations. In welcoming the participants Mr Qingsong noted the increasing significance of microbiological hazards in relation to food safety. He noted that international trade had amplified the opportunity for these hazards to be disseminated from the original point of production to locations thousands of miles away, thereby permitting such food safety hazards to impact on public health and trade in more than one country. Mr Qingsong observed that this under lined the need to first consider microbiological hazards at the international level and provide the means by which they can then be addressed at regional and national levels. He highlighted the commitment of FAO and WHO to provide a neutral international forum to consider new approaches to achieving food safety, and in particular to address microbiological risk assessment.
