Campden BRI to host safe food production seminar

A Campden BRI conference, 10-11 October, will keep attendees up to date with current and future microbiological issues affecting the safe production of food. New issues are always arising, the company says, and there will be opportunities for discussion on a wide range of microbiological issues with news and updates on food production related topics.

The two-day conference will include:

+ An overview of the South African Listeria outbreak, including the lessons learnt

+ Information on the problem of Pseudomonas biofilms in water systems and their control

+ A comprehensive account of nanocomposites as antimicrobial agents

+ An overview of how to protect the consumer and brand by minimising contamination

+ A general overview of Salmonella, Campylobacter, Listeria and E coli STEC and how they can be controlled

+ Information on the microbial challenges of developing novel beverages

+ The results of Campden BRI’s latest research into Clostridium botulinum

The conference will, says Campden BRI, be useful for food and beverage laboratory personnel, microbiologists and technical managers, food manufacturers, quality assurance staff and food safety managers.
