Food Safety Grain Based Foods, Andréia Bianchini,Jayne Stratton, Editör, Elsevier, Massachusetts, ss.395-421, 2025
Food safety management has been experiencing a transition from a hazard-based toward a risk-based approach, facilitating a shift from reactive responses to proactive prevention. As the cornerstone of the food safety program, risk analysis has been demonstrated to be a powerful tool in to ensure food safety by assessing, managing, and ultimately communicating risks and control measures for effective risk mitigation. As the scientific process in risk analysis, risk assessment estimates the probability of adverse health outcomes and the severity of the outcomes consequential to the exposure to a particular hazard. If needed, it prioritizes potential interventions that could be used to prevent and control risks. In this chapter, the development and principles of food safety risk analysis and risk assessment are introduced. In particular, their applications in controlling the chemical and microbial safety of grain-based products are demonstrated using two case studies.
