Paper and paper board are an ideal choice of packaging material due to their biodegradability. They are safer than commonly used plastic packaging materials. But due to the presence of carbon sources like cellulose and starch in paper, various pathogenic and non-pathogenic microbes can grow well in ...

The standard system of food safety inspection and detection method is an important support for the scientific supervision of food safety. During the 13th Five-year Plan, with the support of the special key project of "Research and Development of Key Technologies for Food Safety", a total of 377...

Enzymes play an irreplaceable role in food safety due to their advantages of high catalytic efficiency and strong substrate specificity. However, enzymes are also faced with problems such as sensitivity to environment, difficulty in purification and relatively high price. Facing these problems, the ...

Donated breast milk is a high-value resource which can be used to feed hospitalized neonates and full-term infants, therefore, ensuring its safety is imperative. This literature review presents the main hazards of physical, chemical and microbiological nature identified in human milk, with the...

Mycotoxin-producing fungi are a significant source of crop and food contamination, posing a significant threat to global food safety and security. Essential oils, plant extracts and phytochemicals have emerged as green preservatives to extend the shelf-life of foods due to their unique...

The burden of foodborne diseases and their associated illness/death is a global concern. Hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) and food safety/quality management are employed to combat this problem. With the existing and emerging food safety/quality management concerns, this study...

The fusarium toxin 2-amino-14,16-dimethyloctadecan-3-ol (2-AOD-3-ol) is characterized as a sphingolipid analogue that can be isolated from Fusarium avenaceum-infected crops and fruits. In the current study, we discovered a group of novel metabolites of 2-AOD-3-ol from the F. avenaceum-fermented...

At present, nanomaterials have been widely used in the field of sensors. Compared with the traditional detection methods of mass spectrometry, chromatography and other large-scale instruments, nanomaterials electrochemical sensors have the advantages of simple operation, fast response, low cost...

These proceedings contain articles that discuss tracking, detecting (including traditional, molecular, and real-time), inactivating, and controlling food-related risks, such as allergens, pests, heavy metals, veterinary drug residues, mycotoxins, and seafood toxins, as well as microorganisms...

Low-moisture foods such as spices, grains, and seeds constitute an important part of the human diet. Increased consumer concern for food safety and food quality has focused on the decontamination technologies required for low-moisture foods. Cold plasma treatment has been a promising novel...
