Aptamer-Based Analysis: A Promising Alternative for Food Safety Control
Ensuring food safety is nowadays a top priority of authorities and professional players in the food supply chain. One of the key challenges to determine the safety of food and guarantee a high level of consumer protection is the availability of fast, sensitive and reliable analytical methods to identify specific hazards associated to food before they become a health problem. The limitations of ...
متن کاملEnsuring Food Quality and Safety - NTR2008 Supplement
Food losses caused by pests, contamination and spoilage are enormous. It is estimated1 that 42% of the production of the eight major food and cash crops of the world are lost to pests, with post harvest losses adding a further 10%. Despite the use of modern food processing and distribution systems, food borne diseases still pose a widespread threat to human health as well as being an important ...
متن کاملMiniaturized Aptamer-Based Assays for Protein Detection
The availability of devices for cancer biomarker detection at early stages of the disease is one of the most critical issues in biomedicine. Towards this goal, to increase the assay sensitivity, device miniaturization strategies empowered by the employment of high affinity protein binders constitute a valuable approach. In this work we propose two different surface-based miniaturized platforms ...
متن کاملEnsuring Safety of Systems of Systems A Policy-based Approach
Systems of Systems (SoS) are formed from existing elements, often developed independently, which are brought together to achieve a common goal. SoS have a number of characteristics (such as local autonomy and heterogeneity) that make their emergent behaviour hard to predict. Interaction between systems can lead to unsafe conditions, and potentially to accidents. Given that the component systems...
متن کاملTotal Diet Studies as a Tool for Ensuring Food Safety
With the diversification and internationalization of the food industry and the increased focus on health from a majority of consumers, food safety policies are being implemented based on scientific evidence. Risk analysis represents the most useful scientific approach for making food safety decisions. Total diet study (TDS) is often used as a risk assessment tool to evaluate exposure to hazardo...
