Abstract:Microbial risk assessment is crucial for protecting public health and the food supply chain. Sources of variability in microorganisms, such as stress adaptation and genetic heterogeneities, can affect the survival, growth and virulence of microorganisms and their ability to cause disease or food spoilage. There are currently large knowledge gaps regarding variability of the microbial response and understanding it is essential for accurately estimating potential risks and to develop effective control measures. … Show more
