The term food borne diseases or food-borne illnesses or more commonly food poisoning are used to denote gastrointestinal complications that occur following recent consumption of a particular food or drink.
Each year around one-third of the world population is affected by food-borne pathogens especially in developing countries. Even in developed nation like US, billions are spent in treatment of foodborne diseases caused by major pathogens. Each year 48 million people are affected in US with foodborne illness
Zoonoses :- derived from the Greek words
Zoon- Animal & Noson – Disease
Zoonoses was coined and first used by Rudolf Virchow who defined it for communicable diseases.
Diseases and infections which are naturally transmitted between vertebrate animals and humans - WHO 1959
Of the 1415 microbial diseases affecting humans, 61% are zoonotic with 13% species regarded as emerging or reemerging
Link b/w human & animals with their surrounding are very close especially in developing countries
Zoonotic infections are diseases that can spread from animals to humans. Over 60% of infectious diseases in humans are zoonotic. Transmission can occur through direct contact with infected animals, indirect contact, vectors like ticks and mosquitoes, or contaminated food. Common zoonotic diseases include anthrax, bovine tuberculosis, salmonellosis, E. coli, rabies, avian influenza, and prion diseases. Bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, and prions can all cause zoonotic diseases. Proper hygiene and food handling can help prevent transmission of zoonotic infections.
Zoonotic diseases can be transmitted from animals to humans in various ways, including direct contact, aerosol transmission, fomite transmission, and vector transmission. Some notable zoonotic diseases mentioned in the document include tuberculosis, brucellosis, listeriosis, Q fever, leptospirosis, Lyme disease, tularemia, plague, rat bite fever, cat scratch fever, psittacosis, anthrax, coccidioidomycosis, viral encephalomyelitides such as West Nile virus, and rabies. These diseases have varying symptoms in humans and animals, as well as different transmission cycles and public health implications.
The document discusses zoonoses, which are diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans. It provides definitions of zoonoses and describes how they have been classified based on their reservoir hosts and life cycles. Over 150 zoonotic diseases are known, and many emerged recently like Kyasanur Forest disease and Monkeypox. Zoonoses cause health issues and economic losses. Developing countries are often more severely impacted due to factors like climate and lack of public health/veterinary services. Common zoonotic diseases are described along with the specimens, tests, and methods used for laboratory diagnosis of bacterial, viral, rickettsial, parasitic and fungal zoonoses.
Zoonosis history and bacterial zoonotic diseasesDeepika Jain
Zoonoses are diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans. Some key points:
- Zoonoses have affected humans throughout history, with examples like the bubonic plague in the 14th century killing one third of Europe's population.
- World Zoonoses Day is celebrated annually on July 6th in recognition of Louis Pasteur developing the first vaccine against rabies in 1885.
- At-risk groups like the immunocompromised, elderly, and those with HIV/AIDS are more susceptible to severe illness from zoonotic infections involving bacteria like Salmonella, Campylobacter, and parasites like Toxoplasma and Cryptosporidium.

This document discusses parasitic zoonoses and provides details on two specific parasites: Toxoplasma gondii and Sarcocystis. It describes toxoplasmosis and sarcocystis, including their causative agents, hosts, modes of transmission, life cycles, pathologies, diagnoses, and methods of prevention and control. Toxoplasmosis is transmitted through ingestion of oocysts from infected cat feces or raw meat/milk and can cause severe symptoms in fetuses and immunocompromised individuals. Sarcocystis has a two-host life cycle involving intermediate herbivore hosts and definitive carnivore hosts, including humans, and is transmitted through ingestion of undercooked meat
This document summarizes several zoonotic protozoan diseases. It discusses Toxoplasmosis, caused by Toxoplasma gondii, noting cats are the definitive host and transmission can occur congenitally or through undercooked meat. African trypanosomiasis, or sleeping sickness, is transmitted by tsetse flies and caused by Trypanosoma brucei, while American trypanosomiasis, or Chagas disease, is transmitted by triatomine bugs and caused by Trypanosoma cruzi. Symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and prevention are outlined for each disease.
This document discusses zoonoses, which are diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans. It covers the definition of zoonoses, factors that influence their prevalence, classification, and modes of transmission.

This document presents information about zoonotic diseases. It discusses that zoonotic diseases are infections transmitted between animals and humans. It then classifies zoonotic diseases into different categories like direct, cyclozoonosis, and saprozoonosis. The document outlines the modes of transmission as direct contact or through intermediate species. It recommends methods of control like dog detention and destruction of stray dogs. Finally, it provides tips to prevent zoonotic diseases like washing hands frequently and limiting places for mosquitoes to breed.
Zoonoses are diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans. They are caused by a variety of pathogens including bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi and prions. Farm animals like cattle, pigs, and poultry are common carriers and their waste, meat, and bodily contact can transmit diseases. Diseases are often spread through everyday contact with infected animals, their byproducts, contaminated food or soil, bites and scratches. Some common zoonotic diseases are rabies, West Nile virus, salmonellosis, and toxoplasmosis. Proper hygiene, cooking, vaccination, and avoiding contact with wild animals can help prevent transmission of zoonotic diseases.
This document discusses viral zoonotic diseases, with a focus on rabies. It defines zoonoses as diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans. Rabies virus causes progressive infection of the central nervous system. Rabies occurs worldwide except Australia and Antarctica. Transmission is typically through bites from rabid animals, most commonly dogs. Symptoms in humans include pain at the bite site, hydrophobia, and paralysis. Laboratory diagnosis involves detecting the rabies virus or antibodies. Post-exposure prophylaxis includes wound cleansing, rabies immunoglobulin, and rabies vaccines. Prevention relies on surveillance, mass dog vaccination, population control, and public education.
This document discusses zoonotic (animal to human) diseases. It defines zoonoses as diseases that can be passed between animals and humans, with over 60% of human infectious diseases originating from animals. The document categorizes zoonoses into viral, bacterial, parasitic, mycotic, and tick-borne diseases. It then discusses in detail six important zoonotic diseases: rabies, Ebola, influenza, tuberculosis, leptospirosis, and brucellosis; covering their causative pathogens, transmitting animals, transmission modes, symptoms, and characteristics.
This document provides a detailed classification of zoonoses, or diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans, based on several factors. It describes classifications based on the nature of reservoirs, epidemiological features like life cycle and transmission mode, the animals involved like wild, pet or lab animals, physical conditions like urban vs. rural, transmission types like food-borne or vector-borne, the type of pathogen such as viral, bacterial, parasitic, and more. Many examples are given for each classification category to illustrate the different types of zoonotic diseases.
Plague is a deadly infectious disease caused by the Yersinia pestis bacteria, which is commonly transmitted to humans by fleas that feed on infected rodents. There are three main forms of plague - bubonic, septicemic, and pneumonic - which vary in their symptoms and transmission methods. While plague has caused several pandemics throughout history, it is now treatable with antibiotics when diagnosed early. Public health efforts focus on surveillance of rodent populations and fleas to control outbreaks.
1) Anthrax is a bacterial infection caused by Bacillus anthracis that can enter the human body through the skin, lungs, or intestines.
2) It primarily affects cattle, sheep and goats but people can be infected through contact with infected animals or contaminated animal products.
3) The document then describes the clinical presentation of cutaneous (skin), inhalation, and intestinal anthrax as well as the pathology and epidemiology of anthrax infections.
Zoonoses, or diseases that can be transmitted between animals and humans, were discussed. Key points included:
- Over 250 known zoonotic diseases ranging from mild to fatal illnesses. Common zoonoses include salmonellosis, Lyme disease, and West Nile virus.
- Diseases are transmitted through various routes such as direct contact, bites, food/water, fomites, and vectors like fleas and ticks.
- At risk groups include those working with animals, in agriculture, recreationally exposed to wildlife, and travelers. Animal reservoirs include dogs, cats, food animals, birds, and wild rodents.
This document provides information on the zoonotic disease Murine typhus. It is caused by the bacteria Rickettsia typhi and is transmitted to humans through contact with infected fleas. Common symptoms include fever, headache, and rash. Murine typhus is endemic in many parts of the world where infected rats and their fleas live in close proximity to humans. Proper sanitation and pest control can help prevent the spread of this disease.
Zoonotic diseases can be transmitted between animals and humans, with rabies being a notable example. Rabies is an acute viral infection of the central nervous system that is transmitted through the saliva of infected animals via bites or scratches. It is fatal in over 95% of cases in Asia and Africa. The rabies virus is a bullet-shaped rhabdovirus that infects both domestic and wild animals and spreads to humans through contact with infected saliva. There is no cure once symptoms appear, making vaccination important for those at risk of exposure.
This is a PowerPoint presentation on the Plague, also known as the Bubonic Plague and the Black Death. The presentation includes an identification of the agent involved, who is at risk, where it is most common, modes of transmission, clinical manifestations of infection, resistance, and how it could be used in bioterrorism.
Food Borne Diseases are also called foodborne illness. any illness brought on by eating or drinking things that have been contaminated with certain infectious or noninfectious substances. Agents like bacteria, viruses, or parasites are to blame for the majority of cases of foodborne disease. Other harmful substances include mycotoxins (fungal toxins), marine biotoxins, and the toxins found in poisonous mushrooms. They also include metals like lead, mercury, and cadmium that can contaminate food through soil, water, or air pollution, organic pollutants like dioxin and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), which are byproducts of some industrial processes, and prions (abnormal protein forms). Foodborne illness agents can result in a wide range of ailments, including gastroenteritis, reproductive or developmental problems, and neurological illnesses like bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow disease). Since many cases of foodborne illness go unreported, it is challenging to determine how common they are, but the burden of illness is believed to be significant. For instance, tens of millions of individuals get diarrheal disorders each year, a frequent indicator of a foodborne illness. Outbreaks of foodborne infections frequently happen, and they have the potential to harm a lot of people. For instance, a hepatitis A epidemic in 1988 in China that was brought on by eating infected clams impacted more than 300,000 people, while a salmonellosis outbreak in 1994 in the United States that was brought on by eating contaminated ice cream affected 224,000 individuals. Food-borne infections are often fatal. Consuming tainted foods or drinks results in foodborne disease. Foods can be contaminated by a wide range of pathogens or disease-causing bacteria, leading to a wide range of foodborne diseases. Eating food tainted with germs, viruses, parasites, or chemicals like heavy metals can result in over 200 ailments. Through pressure on healthcare systems, lost productivity, and detrimental effects on trade and tourism, this growing public health issue has a significant socioeconomic impact. The worldwide burden of disease and mortality is considerably increased by these illnesses.
This document summarizes foodborne diseases caused by Clostridium species, specifically C. perfringens and C. botulinum. C. perfringens is a common cause of food poisoning worldwide, usually resulting from improper cooking and storage of foods allowing the bacteria to grow. It causes abdominal cramps and diarrhea. C. botulinum produces a potent neurotoxin (botulinum toxin) that can cause botulism from consuming contaminated canned foods or honey. Proper food handling and cooking is important to prevent growth and toxin production from these Clostridium species.

The document then describes several major bacterial causes like Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium botulinum, and E. coli. For each bacteria, it discusses epidemiology, pathogenesis, symptoms and methods of prevention and control.
This document provides information about the emerging bacterial disease listeriosis. It discusses Listeria monocytogenes, the causative agent. Key points include that L. monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen commonly transmitted through contaminated foods. It can cause a mild flu-like illness or a severe invasive infection affecting high-risk groups like pregnant women. The document covers the bacteriology, virulence factors, transmission, pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of listeriosis. Control relies on proper food handling and sanitation throughout the food supply chain.
Foodborne diseases are caused by consuming contaminated food or drink. Over 250 foodborne diseases have been described, mostly caused by bacteria, viruses and parasites. The most common foodborne diseases are caused by Campylobacter, Salmonella, E. coli O157:H7, and noroviruses. Raw foods of animal origin pose the highest risk of contamination. Proper cooking and cleaning can help prevent foodborne illnesses. Thorough investigation is needed to identify the contaminated source during outbreaks to prevent future illnesses.
Salmonellae, causing agents of food Toxin infectionsEneutron
Salmonellae bacteria are the causative agents of foodborne infections. There are over 20 species and types of Salmonella that can cause disease in humans. Salmonella are transmitted through contaminated food, especially meat, eggs, and water. Infection results in a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. Laboratory techniques are used to diagnose Salmonella infections through culturing samples and identifying the bacteria. Treatment involves antibiotics while prevention focuses on food safety practices and controlling Salmonella in animals, food processing facilities, and carriers.
This document discusses several types of bacteria and viruses that can cause stomach infections, including E. coli, Campylobacter, Listeria, Vibrio, Toxoplasma, Salmonella, and Norovirus. It describes where each pathogen is typically found, the symptoms it causes, and precautions people can take to avoid infection, such as thoroughly cooking foods and washing hands. The key message is that following basic food safety and hygiene practices can help prevent the spread of dangerous stomach germs.
Food borne diseases can be caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites, or toxins in contaminated food. Common foodborne illnesses include salmonellosis, campylobacteriosis, E. coli infection, shigellosis, cholera, and listeriosis. These pathogens often contaminate foods of animal origin like meat, eggs, and dairy if they are not properly refrigerated, cooked, or handled. Symptoms range from diarrhea to life-threatening conditions. Proper hygiene, sanitation, and food handling can help reduce the risk of contracting a foodborne illness.
This document discusses various foodborne illnesses, their causes, and methods of prevention. It provides an overview of common pathogens like Salmonella, E. coli, and norovirus. It then discusses the history of food safety regulations and improvements over time. Finally, it outlines prevention methods like proper food handling and cooking, hygiene practices, and the roles of government agencies in regulating food safety.
This document discusses food borne diseases. It defines food borne diseases as illnesses resulting from contaminated food or water. It classifies food borne diseases into infections caused by microorganisms or intoxications caused by toxins. The document outlines various biological, chemical and physical contaminants that can cause food borne illness, including bacteria like Salmonella, viruses like norovirus, parasites like Giardia, and toxins produced by molds. It describes symptoms and food sources for common food borne diseases. The document emphasizes that food safety is important to prevent illness and ensure access to safe food for all.
Comparative analysis on food infections and food intoxicationsProximaDhiman
This document provides a comparative analysis of food infections and food intoxications. It defines foodborne diseases as illnesses caused by consuming contaminated food or water. There are two main types of foodborne diseases: food infections caused by pathogenic microbes like bacteria, viruses, and parasites; and food intoxications caused by toxins produced by microbes or present in plants, animals, or added chemicals. Food infections spread from person to person but intoxications do not. Common forms of food infections are caused by bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli, while intoxications can result from toxins in foods like ciguatera fish poisoning or mycotoxins produced by molds. Proper food handling and hygiene can help prevent contamination

What Causes Foodborne Illness?
LO 20.1 Distinguish between foodborne infection and foodborne intoxication
and provide an example of each.
Foodborne illness is any disorder caused by consuming contaminated food. It is a major
preventable public health threat worldwide. Every year in the United States, 1 in 6 Ameri-
cans (or 48 million people) experience foodborne illness, and about 128,000 are hospital-
ized.1 Foodborne illness most commonly results in gastrointestinal symptoms such as
cramps, diarrhea, and nausea and vomiting, but in extreme circumstances it can result in
death. Approximately 3,000 Americans die of foodborne illness every year.2
Pathogens and Their Toxins Cause Most Foodborne Illness
The two types of foodborne illness are infection and intoxication. Consuming foods or
beverages that are contaminated with disease-causing organisms, known as pathogens,
causes foodborne infection. Once ingested, the pathogens multiply in the GI tract and
cause illness. Pathogens commonly implicated in foodborne infection include viruses,
bacteria, molds, parasites, and prions (Table 20.1).
Eating foods contaminated with a toxin causes foodborne intoxication. Viruses
and parasites do not cause foodborne intoxication. Certain species of bacteria, however,
do secrete toxins. These include Cl.
The document discusses the top 10 riskiest foods for foodborne illness according to CDC data. Leafy greens were responsible for the most outbreaks involving 13,568 cases of illness. Eggs were responsible for 352 outbreaks and 11,163 cases. The other top foods were tuna, oysters, potatoes, cheese, ice cream, tomatoes, sprouts, and berries. Each food is associated with common pathogens that can cause illness, such as Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, Norovirus, and others. Foodborne illness results from consuming contaminated food and can be caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites, or toxins.
The document summarizes research on the top 10 riskiest foods for foodborne illness according to the CDC. Leafy greens were associated with the most outbreaks and cases of illness. Other high-risk foods included eggs, tuna, oysters, potatoes, cheese, ice cream, tomatoes, sprouts, and berries. Each food is associated with common pathogens that cause illness, such as E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria, and Norovirus. Foodborne illness results from consuming contaminated food and can be caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites or toxins.
This document discusses several foodborne pathogens, including Clostridium perfringens, Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, and Clostridium botulinum. It provides details on the organism, associated foods and symptoms, transmission, diagnosis and prevention for each pathogen. Clostridium perfringens causes nearly 1 million cases of foodborne illness annually in the US, often through undercooked meats and gravies. Salmonella transmission can occur through raw eggs and poultry and causes abdominal pain and diarrhea. Listeria risks are reduced through proper food handling and avoiding raw milk or vegetables.

2. The term food borne diseases or food-borne illnesses or
more commonly food poisoning are used to denote
gastrointestinal complications that occur following
recent consumption of a particular food or drink.
Each year around one-third of the world population is
affected by food-borne pathogens especially in
developing countries. Even in developed nation like
US, billions are spent in treatment of foodborne
diseases caused by major pathogens. Each year 48
million people are affected in US with foodborne
illness
.
3. International trade of animal products has aggravated the
condition. The food borne illness can be of three types i.e.
food infection, food intoxication and toxico-infection. The
rapid increase in human population and urbanization
along with changing food habits has resulted in increase in
the consumption of animal product like meat, milk and
egg as the animal protein are of higher value and rich in
micronutrients like iron and zinc and vitamins
By the year 2030, the annual meat production was predicted
to be about 376 million tonnes and the per-capita
consumption of meat and milk was also expected to
increase significantly worldwide
4. This results in increased demand, leading to intensive
animal production and processing of products
especially mass production and movement of product
globally, thereby increasing the chances of
contamination and spread of foodborne pathogens.
These pathogens can enter the food chain anytime
between farm to fork and are classed into bacterial,
viral, protozoan and parasitic agents. The pathogens
cause disease by consumption of undercooked food
and produce illnesses either by their presence or by
production of toxins or both.
Pregnant women, elderly people, immnocompromised
people and children are at higher risk of infection with
these pathogens
5. The important food borne pathogens of animal origin
includes Salmonella, Campylobacter, Escherechia coli,
Staphylococcus, Clostridium, Yersisnia, Listeria,
Arcobacter, Mycobacterium,
Taenia, Trichinella, Sarcocystis, Toxoplasma
gondii and Cryptosporidium parvum
The viral agents being host specific their transmission to
humans through food of animal origin is not yet
confirmed although these animal viruses are similar to
that of viruses infecting human. Contamination of
food by infected handlers is considered to be the main
mode transmission of food borne viruses
but Hepatis A virus may be transmitted through milk
and meat
6. Salmonella
Salmonella are Gram negative motile bacilli and are one of the leading
causes of food borne illness in humans. There are more than 2450
serotypes of salmonella which are included under two species S.
enterica and S. bongori. Salmonella enterica is further classed into six
subspecies. Food borne salmonellosis also called as non-typhoidal
salmonellosis or enterocolitis results in gastroenteritis is caused by
ingestion of more than 150 serotypes but S. Typhimurium and S.
Enteritidis being more common.
Transmission occurs by ingestion of water and food contaminated with
animal faeces and also from contaminated food processing
equipments. Poultry and poultry products are considered as important
source of the organism especially raw shelled eggs.
The incubation period ranges from 12-72 h followed by appearance of
clinical signs like diarrhea, fever and abdominal cramps. The disease is
of self limiting nature and does not require specific treatments but can
result in serious complication in young children, old and immuno-
compromised individuals
7. Campylobacter
Campylobacters are Gram negative spiral, microaerophilic bacteria
belonging to Campylobacteriaceae family. Among campylobacters
thermophilic campylobacters are important food borne pathogens
especially, C. jejuni and C. coli, which are the leading bacterial cause of
foodborne infections worldwide
These organisms were isolated from several animal species but poultry act
as important source of the organism. There is rapid infection among all
birds once a flock is colonised thus significant proportions of raw
poultry meat become contaminated with the organism and acting as an
important source of the organism.
Transmission occurs by handling and consumption of contaminated meat
and milk. Table eggs are not considered as important source of the
organism.
The organism up on consumption multiplies in the intestinal tract and
damages the mucosal epithelium, resulting in self limiting diarrhea
and abdominal pain. Several cases may be asymptomatic in nature. The
incubation period varies from 3-5 days. Campylobacter outbreaks are
sporadic in nature and are not associated with mortality but can result
in secondary complications like GBS and reactive arthritis
8. Escherichia coli
Gram negative rods of the family Enterobacteriaceae and are
normal commensal organisms, present in the intestinal
contents and faeces of both humans and animals. Some
strains are pathogenic causing gastrointestinal
complications in humans.
Cattle are considered as an important source of the organism
with a prevalence rate ranging from 0.1-16% and are shed
intermittently in the faces of infected animals. The
organisms are also isolated from sheep, horses, dogs, goats
and deer.
Transmission occurs by consumption of undercooked beef
and raw contaminated milk.
The incubation period ranges between 2 and 10 days followed
by appearance of diarrhea, abdominal pain, vomiting,
hemorrhagic colitis, haemolytic uraemic syndrome with
acute kidney failure
The incubation period ranges between 2 and
10 days followed by appearance of diarrhea,
abdominal pain, vomiting, hemorrhagic
colitis, haemolytic uraemic syndrome with
acute kidney failure
9. Listeria monocytogenes
Listeria monocytogenes are Gram positive intra cellular
organisms capable of surviving under refrigeration
conditions, low pH and in high salt concentration.
The disease is characterized by high mortality rate in affected
individuals. Deaths due to listeriosis in human population
rose in the 21st century. Transmission occurs by ingestion
of food contaminated with the organism.
Among the food products of animal origin milk and dairy
products (Soft Cheese), meat and meat products (sausages)
derived from both animals and poultry and turkey along
with sea foods act as important source of the organism.
The affected individuals show flu like symptoms and may
develop septicemia and meningitis. In pregnant women
uterine infection can occur resulting in abortion, still birth
or fetal infection.
10. Staphylococcus
Staphylococcus is gram positive cocci predominantly
transmitted through food of animal origin like milk and
milk products, meat including salted meat products. These
being commensal organism in both humans and animals
cross contamination may also play important role in food
borne outbreaks.
They produce food intoxication by producing 11 different
enterotoxins which are produced while the organism grows
in the food product. The clinical signs appear within 2-4 h
post consumption of the food, characterized by nausea and
vomiting mainly, subnormal temperature, chills, headache.
The condition is self limiting in nature and recovery occurs
rapidly.
11. The main obstacle in the detection of the pathogen is the
variety of foods involved in the outbreak, similarity of the
clinical symptoms exhibited, short duration of the clinical
symptoms and reduced fraction of affected people seeking
medical attention. Rapid and definitive identification of
the causative organism and the route of infection are
important in the prevention and control food borne
outbreaks. The physician should observe the characteristic
clinical signs and should collect the appropriate clinical
samples and send to specialized labs for identification of
the causative organism. He should collect proper case
history like types food consumed, place of consumption,
involvement of others who have consumed the same food,
if possible collect the food sample involved to identify the
source of outbreak.
The microbiological screening of stool, blood, food samples
and vomitus can be carried out to identify the causative
organism.
12. Most of the food-borne illnesses are of self limiting in nature
and are managed by supportive therapy like fluid therapy
to correct the hydration status of the affected individuals
Use of antibiotics in the treatment of food borne illness is
recommended only under severe conditions and should be
employed if specific diagnosis is established.
A number of plants as well as plant extracts and constituents
have been identified as having anti-microbial activities and
are often considered as immune enhancers and thus find
their applicability in present context. Spices such as onion
as well as garlic and ginger; mustard and red chilli; spices
viz. turmeric, clove, cinnamon and saffron; others like
curry leaf and fenugreek are some medicinal plants
13. Food hygiene legislations affect all food businesses
including caterers and farmers; manufacturers and
retailers. As the infected animals and poultry would
subsequently result in contamination of the product
obtained from them, therefore prevention and control
measure are to be adopted to reduce infection burden
in animals and in the processing steps of the food
product obtained from the food animals till consumed
The most novel prevention and control strategies have
been described below:
14.
•Proper cooking of the food product is very important measure.
Moist heat treatment reduces the chance of spread of bacterial
toxins•Proper cooling and refrigeration of food items along with
maintenance of keeping quality (especially to prevent the growth
of Clostridium perfringens)•Avoiding cross contamination of cooked
food is also equally important•Adopting good husbandry practices
including of proper biosecurity measures, cleaning, sanitation,
hygiene, disinfection, quarantine, therapeutic regimens and
appropriate vaccination programme•Precautionary measures to check
for pathogen spread by people, vehicles, equipments, feed, litter, water,
vermin (rats/mice), insects/beetles, wild birds, animals
entering/present in the farm•Judicious use of suitable antibiotics for
treating diseases. Misuse and over/low dose of antibiotics should be
discouraged•Chlorination of drinking water•HACCP principles in
production and processing of animal products•Good kitchen hygiene
practices and adequate cooking of the product•Avoiding cross
contaminations of cooked with other raw food materials•Avoid
consumption of raw/ uncooked products especially milk•Appropriate
and timely medical advice/treatment of affected individuals should be
followed•Regular reporting of the outbreaks to local health
departments•Appropriate trade restrictions should be implemented in
the event of an outbreak of food-borne pathogen•Enforcement of
disease surveillance and monitoring programmes•Last but the least is
the promotion of health education
