8777 Ellouze, M.; Gauchi, J.; Augustin, J. Use of global sensitivity analysis in quantitative microbial risk assessment: application to the evaluation of a biological Time Temperature Integrator as a quality and safety indicator for cold smoked salmon
URL: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6WFP-506W6ND-5&_user=961305&_coverDate=06%2F01%2F2010&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_acct=C000049425&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=961305&md5=ef8b9d7c1551e225038264dfe5798d92
Format: HTML PDF
The aim of this study was to apply a global sensitivity analysis (SA) method in model simplification and to evaluate, a biological Time Temperature Integrator (TTI) as a quality and safety indicator for cold smoked salmon (CSS). Models were thus developed to predict the evolutions of Listeria monocytogenes and the indigenous food flora in CSS and to predict TTIs endpoint. A global SA was then applied on the three models to identify the less important factors and simplify the models accordingly..

8856 Ellouze, M.; Gauchi, J.; Augustin, J. Recently Added Global Sensitivity Analysis Applied to a Contamination Assessment Model of Listeria monocytogenes in Cold Smoked Salmon at Consumption
URL: http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/123321009/abstract
Format: PDF
In this study, a variance-based global sensitivity analysis method was first applied to a contamination assessment model of Listeria monocytogenes in cold smoked vacuum packed salmon at consumption. The impact of the choice of the modeling approach (populational or cellular) of the primary and econdary models as well as the effect of their associated input factors on the final contamination level was investigated.

This report describes the implementation of food safety objectives in a case study involving the microbiological hazard Listeria monocytogenes in cold-smoked salmon. The main goals of this report are to consider the emerging concept of the food safety objective and to summarise the status of current understanding, to evaluate the scientific basis and rationale for the introduction of food safety objectives, to assess the potential role of food safety objectives in current food safety management programmes throughout the food chain, and o identify key issues that need to be addressed to progress the food safety objective concept in practice. Included are discussions and recommendations on the policies and procedures in managing effective food safety objectives.

7836 Ivanek, R.; Grohn, Y.T. Wiedmann, M.; Wells, M.T. Mathematical Model of Listeria monocytogenes Cross-Contamination in a Fish Processing Plant
URL: http://umd.library.ingentaconnect.com/content/iafp/jfp/2004/00000067/00000012/art00009
Format: HTML
This report details a mathematical simulation model describing cross contamination pathways for L. monocytogenes. A smoked fish processing plant was used for the model. The report concludes that 10.7% of foods in a lot are contaminated, and that the most significant contributors to contamination were the frequency in which employees' gloves touched food and food surfaces, and the frequency of changing gloves. Access to the full report requires purchase.

2313 National Food Processors Association Survey of Listeria Monocytogenes in Ready to Eat Foods
URL: http://foodrisk.org/exclusives/SLMREF/
Format: HTML PDF MS Access
The National Food Processors Association (NFPA) conducted this study with the purpose of addressing uncertainties in risk assessment regarding the occurrence of L. Monocytogenes in ready to eat foods. NFPA collected and tested about 31,700 samples in eight different categories of ready to eat foods. Samples were collected and tested over a period of 14 -23 months from retail markets in Maryland and California Food Net sites. The product categories on the access database include fresh soft "Hispanic" style cheeses, bagged salads, blue veined and soft mold ripened cheeses, smoked seafood and seafood salad. Lunch meats and Deli salads will be included in the database in the near future. The downloadable access database includes information on the product, such as location packaged, geographic area, date listed, date of purchase, date of assay, if vacuum packaged, etc. Test information also includes presumptive positives, number of tubes that are turbid at the 1, 10 and 100 dilution, most probable number, presumptive colonies, cfu/g, etc.
