Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pathogenic microorganisms are a significant concern for the food industry, as they can generate severe damage to consumer health and economic losses to industries. In food processing, there is often a conducive environment for microbiological development.
In this way, strict control of all processing steps is necessary, as well as control of transport and storage steps. Using technologies and processes to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms is essential to ensure food safety. In addition, the identification of pathogenic microorganisms that can contaminate the product is vital to having a quality product.
This Special Issue aims to gather manuscripts to clarify the main pathogens associated with food, their health complications, ways of acting, and technologies or processes applied to the elimination of pathogenic microorganisms in food.
Best regards,
Dr. Ramon Silva Rocha
Guest Editor
