“…The literature also identified urbanization, changes in land use, and evolving agricultural practices as important components of the health security risk environment, given their roles in modulating disease spread between humans and animals, and creating conditions that could enable emergence of novel zoonoses [33, 65, 66]. The risks posed by increased proximity between human and animal populations manifests in other contexts as well; as noted previously, several documents described mass gatherings as potential catalysts of disease transmission, citing public health risks associated with the Hajj and the Olympic Games [21, 35].…”

Additionally, Brioudes and Gummow note that certain trade and agricultural practices – including swill feeding, illegal wildlife trading, and introductions of undeclared goods – could further heighten the risk of exposing emerging pathogens to susceptible human or animal populations [65].…”

Establishing a theoretical foundation for measuring global health security: a scoping review

Background Since the 2014–2016 West Africa Ebola epidemic, the concept of measuring health security capacity has become increasingly important within the broader context of health systems-strengthening, enhancing responses to public health emergencies, and reducing global catastrophic biological risks. Efforts to regularly and sustainably track the evolution of health security capabilities and capacities over time – while also accounting for political, social, and environmental risks – could help countries progress toward eliminating sources of health insecurity. We sought to aggregate evidence-based principles that capture a country’s baseline public health and healthcare capabilities, its health security system performance before and during infectious disease crises, and its broader social, political, security, and ecological risk environments. Methods We conducted a scoping review of English-language scholarly and gray literature to identify evidence- and practice-based indicators and proxies for measuring health security at the country level over time. We then used a qualitative coding framework to identify recurrent themes in the literature and synthesize foundational principles for measuring global health security. Documents reviewed included English-language literature published after 2001 until the end of the research period—September 2017—to ensure relevance to the current global health security landscape; literature examining acute infectious disease threats with potential for transnational spread; and literature addressing global health security efforts at the country level. Results We synthesized four foundational principles for measuring global health security: measurement requires assessment of existing capacities, as well as efforts to build core public health, healthcare, and biosecurity capabilities; assessments of national programs and efforts to mitigate a critical subset of priority threats could inform efforts to generate useful metrics for global health security; there are measurable enabling factors facilitating health security-strengthening efforts; and finally, measurement requires consideration of social, political, and ecological risk environments. Conclusion The themes identified in this review could inform efforts to systematically assess the impacts and effectiveness of activities undertaken to strengthen global health security.

“…Because of the market prices gap among different animal meats, which bring about the different economic benefits, some food business enterprises or self-employed operators are attempting illegal profits by using lower priced meat to replace the high priced and valuable meats. This type of meat adulteration not only violated the Food Labelling Act, the Fair Trade Act and the Consumer Protection Act, but also meat products containing undeclared species meat may cause allergies and diseases in sensitized individuals (Brioudes & Gummow, 2016). For example, in early 2013, Europe was hit by the biggest fraud ground beef products adulterated with horse meat, in which a medicine in horse meat may be transferred to human body to cause serious health issues (Nau, 2013).…”

Label-free rapid identification of cooked meat using MIP-quantum weak measurement

A label-free and rapid detection of cooked rat meat-based molecular-imprinted polymer (MIP) conjugated with quantum weak measurement system (QWM) has been developed. Cooked rat protein-specific MIP was prepared by a modified reverse-phase microemulsion method and coated on the internal surface of measuring channels assembled into Mach-Zrhnder interferometer of an optical weak measurement system. The measurement is based on the optical phase shift due to the refractive index change, which is induced by the specific capture of rat protein at its MIP sites. The results can be characterized and calculated by the central wavelength shift of output spectra through weak value amplification. This MIP-WQM system was demonstrated with cooked rat protein showing linear dynamic range from 0 to 20 µg/ L. The limit of detection is calculated as 0.1 µg/L for cooked rat meat protein. The system also showed high specificity to cooked rat meat protein, compared to cooked pork meat proteins.
