Functional Foods in Health and Disease – Open Access, 2022
The Review points out that though consumption of foods with healthy microbes is not new to the world, but preparing novel products with clinically tested Probiotics is more specific and reliable to give desired health attribute. Incorporation of Probiotics in different food matrices is therefore important. While Probiotic foods are generally dairy based they can be used in raw materials like Cereals, Pulses, Fruits, Vegetables, Tubers, Fish and Meat.
White Paper on Integrated Food Chain Surveillance for Enhancing Food Safety- A Model Approach
2023
Safety of food and water is of paramount importance in the public health domain. Safety concerns include all those hazards which make food injurious to health. Specific of these food hazards are chemical and microbiological contaminants, biological toxins, pesticide residues, veterinary drug residues, and allergens.
It is important that a National Food Control System should be such that the consumer is protected from unsafe food. The integrated food chain surveillance system is being recognized as a holistic approach in various developed countries for controlling food safety risks across the entire food chain.
Keeping the aforesaid considerations in view the current White Paper on “Integrated Food Chain Surveillance for Enhancing Food Safety- A Model Approach” captures some of the critical areas of operation that need to be addressed holistically. The application, feasibility and usefulness of the Integrated Food Chain Surveillance system is explored from a developing country perspective including India through a review of literature and designing a “Model Activity Plan” of the integrated food chain surveillance in the Indian context.
