The success a project largely dependent on critical factors, which primarily track project's development from ground up (Ahsen et al. 2021). As result, ...

Physicochemical and sensory analyses are commonly used to determine the quality characteristics of food samples in Food Industries. These methods tedious, laborious, produce chemical residues, involve destruction samples. For meat industries, this work proposes a non-invasive non-destructive computer-aided inspection system, based on computer vision ensemble machine learning techniques. The pap...

In December 2001, the routine inspection of a wild boar intended for human consumption revealed the presence of Trichinella ssp. larvae. Biological, morphological and genetic analyses demonstrated the parasite to be Trichinella pseudospiralis. This is the second report of T. pseudospiralis in the United States and the first report of the parasite in a food animal species in the U.S.

sprouts tainted by Salmonella. In 2006, it was Escherichia coli-laced spinach imported from the United States.

The list of unsafe foods ingested by Canadians goes on and on, which has prompted many health experts to call for the federal government to improve Canada’s food inspe...

Foodborne illnesses occur in both industrialized and developing countries, and may be increasing due to rapidly evolving food production practices. Yet some primary tools used to assess food safety are decades, if not centuries, old. To improve the time to result for food safety assessment a sensitive flow cytometer based system to detect microbial contamination was developed. By eliminating ba...
