The challenge of setting risk-based microbiological criteria for Listeria monocytogenes

5 Citationer (Scopus)

Abstract

After more than 20 years of work with discussing the setting of microbiological criteria for Listeria monocytogenes in foods, Codex Alimentarius on Food Hygiene has finalised a proposal that was recently adopted by the Codex Alimentarius Commission. The effort of developing procedures for making the microbiological criteria risk-based to the greatest extent possible has challenged scientists and managers during this long time period. Yet, the establishment of microbiological criteria for L. monocytogenes is still being discussed and several approaches are possible. Setting of microbiological criteria continues to be a risk management decision - even when using mathematical modelling to enhance the scientific level of a risk-based approach.
