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...
Comparative study of ochratoxin a exposure through the intake of cereal product...
Tabarani, Ahmed; Zinedine, Abdellah; Rocha, João Miguel; Sanaa, Moez; Abdennebi, El HassaneThe present study aims to compare ochratoxin A (OTA) exposure through the intake of three cereal derivative products (bread, pasta and semolina) in two different Moroccan climatic regions (littoral and continental). OTA weekly intakes from cereal products were calculated using a deterministic approach for each region. Results showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) of OTA exposure between the t...
Editorial note to the special issue “Risk factors for sporadic foodborne diseas...
Gonzales-Barron, Ursula; Cadavez, Vasco; Thebault, Anne; Kooh, Pauline; Sanaa, MoezEpidemiological studies are valuable tools for investigating the origin of outbreaks and also sporadic cases in order to better understand the circumstances of foodborne disease occurrence. It is common to report ad hoc analyses of compiled data of food-borne disease outbreaks, however, such analyses including sporadic cases remain relatively rare. In the literature, several case-control and cohort studies have...
