URL: http://www.medvetnet.org/pdf/Reports/Report_06-005.pdf
Format: HTML PDF
This report is a collection of pre-harvest microbial risk assessments. Models for all the major food-animal production types, including pigs, beef and dairy cattle, and broilers, have been included. The objectives of the pre-harvest models are to integrate in a food-chain risk assessment, estimate the risk of human infection through exposure to animals or animal products, and identify intervention strategies at the farm level. Appendices include data sheets for Salmonella, Enterococcus faecium, VTEC O157, Campylobacter, BSE, Mycobacterium avium subsp. Paratuberculosis, and low and high pathogenic avian influenza viruses.
