A quantitative risk assessment model for Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat...
Gonzales-Barron, Ursula; Pouillot, Régis; Skjerdal, Taran; Carrasco, Elena; Teixeira, Paula; Stasiewicz, Matthew J.; Hasegawa, AkioThis study introduces a quantitative risk assessment (QRA) model aimed at evaluating the risk of invasive listeriosis linked to the consumption of ready-to-eat (RTE) smoked and gravad fish. The QRA model, based on published data, simulates the production process from fish harvest through to consumer intake, specifically focusing on smoked brine-injected, smoked dry-salted, and gravad fish. In a reference scenar...
Updated Parameters for Listeria monocytogenes Dose–Response Model Considering P...
Pouillot, Régis; Kiermeier, Andreas; Guillier, Laurent; Cadavez, Vasco; Sanaa, MoezBetter knowledge regarding the Listeria monocytogenes dose-response (DR) model is needed to refine the assessment of the risk of foodborne listeriosis. In 2018, the European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) derived a lognormal Poisson DR model for 14 different age-sex sub-groups, marginally to strain virulence. In the present study, new sets of parameters are developed by integrating the EFSA model for these sub-group...
Risk factors for sporadic Yersinia enterocolitica infections: a systematic revi...
Guillier, Laurent; Fravalo, Philippe; Leclercq, Alexandre; Thébault, Anne; Kooh, Pauline; Cadavez, Vasco; Gonzales-Barron, UrsulaYersinia enterocolotica is an important causative agent of diarrheal illness. A systematic review and meta-analysis of case-control studies were performed to determine the main risk factors associated with sporadic Y. enterocolitica infections. Suitable scientific articles published between 1987 and 2017 were identified through a systematic literature search and subject to methodological quality assessment. Fro...
