Risks assessment in the cold chain.

Author(s) : COMMERE B., BEAUFORT A.

Summary

Europe and most countries have set up regulations for temperature control and equipment performance evaluation for the different steps of the cold chain. When determining the shelf life of the product, the most difficult point is to take into account the life of the product after purchase by the consumer. Risk assessment is necessary and will require methodologies to evaluate the influence of the different steps of the cold chain, on the risk of development of pathogenic bacteria. Scientific advances necessary for risk assessment are reviewed and discussed.
