Food safety is a concern worldwide, particularly with the increased globalization of the food supply. Strategic Consulting, Inc. (SCI) investigated food micro testing practices in food plants around the world to document similarities and differences in food safety testing. Tom Weschler, president of Strategic Consulting, presented a summary of the research findings at the 2014 American Society for Microbiology General Meeting in Boston.

    Food Microbiology Testing in the Global Food Industry

    Posted in: Blog, Food Safety, Market Insights, Press Releases by Bob Ferguson | Comments Off on Food Microbiology Testing in the Global Food Industry Thursday, September 5, 2013

    As the global food chain grows more complex, food microbiology testing is increasing worldwide. An authoritative new market research report from Strategic Consulting details worldwide food microbiology testing.

    Food microbiology testing varies extensively around the world. Diagnostic testing by food producers differs by geographic region, by the predominant organisms tested (Salmonella, Listeria, and Campylobacter, for example), and by the type of food product produced (meat, dairy, fruits and vegetables, or processed food). Technical differences in global testing practices also exist, such as the point in the food production chain at which samples are collected, and the test methods used for analysis.

    The following data and charts from Food Micro, Eighth Edition: Microbiology Testing in the Global Food Industry (Food Micro—8) are drawn from in-depth interviews with quality and safety managers in food plants around the world. More than 450 food production facilities in 19 countries were surveyed, with more than 140 interviews conducted in Asia—in China, India, Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia. Many of the Asian surveys were conducted in face-to-face interviews in the native language, in order to provide insights into food testing practices that to date have been difficult to gather. read more…
