Joint FAO/WHO Expert Meeting on the pre- and post-harvest control of Campylobacter spp. in poultry meat - ISS-G20 Laboratorium Repository

Salmonellosis and campylobacteriosis are among the most frequently reported foodborne diseases worldwide. In response to the requests from Codex for scientific advice, FAO and WHO have undertaken the risk assessment of these foodborne pathogens on several foods since 1999. In the past, the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Meeting on Microbiological Risk Assessment (JEMRA) has evaluated Salmonella spp. in eggs and broiler chickens, powder infant formula, chicken meat, bivalve molluscs, and beef and pork to inform risk assessments and recommend effective interventions for the control of this foodborne pathogen. For Campylobacter spp., JEMRA has conducted risk assessments in broiler chickens and evaluated intervention measures being used in production of chicken meat.
