  • "Completely revised and updated, this third edition of a highly regarded text reflects recent developments in the field. The book includes the latest information on microbial stress response, food biopreservatives, recent pathogens of importance, such as H."@en
  • ""Maintaining the high standard set by the previous bestselling editions, Fundamental Food Microbiology, Fourth Edition presents up-to-date information in this rapidly growing and highly dynamic field. Revised and expanded to reflect recent advances, this edition broadens coverage of foodborne diseases to include many new and emerging pathogens, as well as descriptions of the mechanism pathogenesis. An entirely new chapter on detection methods appears with evaluations of advanced rapid detection techniques using biosensors and nanotechnology. With the inclusion of many more easy-to-follow figures and illustrations, this text provides a comprehensive introductory source for undergraduates, as well as a valuable reference for graduate level and working professionals in food microbiology or food safety."--P. 4 de la couv."
  • ""Preface to the Fifth Edition The golden era of food microbiology has begun. All three areas of food microbiology, beneficial, spoilage, and pathogenic microbiology, are expanding and progressing at an incredible pace; thus, it is difficult for one to stay abreast of new developments. A genuine attempt has been made to capture those developments in this new edition. Spoilage-causing microorganisms are a major concern. To feed the growing population in the world, microbial food spoilage must be reduced, and improved intervention technologies must be developed. To achieve that goal, it is necessary to understand the problems; that would help to develop effective control methods for different types of foods, especially using the hurdle concept. In the past decade, foodborne pathogens have broadened their association with varieties of foods that were unexpected, such as Salmonella in peanut butter, fish, and spices; Listeria monocytogenes in cantaloupe and celery; and a new strain of Shiga-toxin producing Escherichia coli (O104:H4) with sprouts. To have a greater understanding of pathogen association in preharvest plants and meat animals, the concerted efforts of plant biologists, animal scientists, soil chemists, environmental scientists, agriculture and biological engineers, social scientists, and microbiologists are needed to address food safety and quality issues"--Provided by publisher."@en

  • "Completely revised and updated, this third edition of a highly regarded text reflects recent developments in the field. The book includes the latest information on microbial stress response, food biopreservatives, recent pathogens of importance, such as Helicobacter pylori and BSE, and control by novel processing technologies. It contains a new chapter on foodborne disease concerns in ready-to-eat foods, expanded and updated coverage of spoilage bacteria in refrigerated foods, and new sections on fresh-cut fruits and vegetables. Questions and selected readings are presented at the end of each chapter."
