“…Furthermore, industries check their products but usually do not report positive findings (Todd 2003). Most foodborne disease outbreaks and deaths with an undetermined cause are likely caused by known pathogens that are not detected, particularly viruses, often members of the Norovirus genus (Frenzen 2004). This situation can be corrected through initiation of new and improvement of existing epidemiological monitoring programs.…”

“…Reliable tests for detection of pathogens may be compromised by inappropriate specimen collection or preparation procedures, or by antimicrobial therapy before stool collection (Frenzen 2004). Likewise, recovery and isolation methods may underestimate counts of pathogens, because certain microorganisms resist cultivation on some artificial media.…”

“…Todos os anos nos Estados Unidos, as enfermidades transmitidas por alimentos geram milhões de doentes e milhares de mortes, sendo que a maioria não é diagnosticada ou relatada (Anderson et al, 2004;Frenzen, 2004;Jones & Gerber, 2001;Mead et al, 1999;Tauxe, 1997). Extrapolando os dados desse país para o resto do mundo, estima-se que um terço da população de países desenvolvidos é afetada anualmente por doenças de origem alimentar, acreditando-se que esse problema seja ainda maior em países subdesenvolvidos ou em desenvolvimento (Schlundt, 2002;Jay, 1995).…”

“…Essas enfermidades são denominadas toxinfecções alimentares, e a sua maioria é causada pelo consumo de alimentos contaminados com os denominados "perigos biológicos" (Meer & Misner, 1999) (Anderson et al, 2004;Frenzen, 2004;Schlundt, 2002;Jones & Gerber, 2001;Mead et al, 1999;Boor, 1997;Brewer, 1991).…”
