Record 2 2008-02-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Food Safety
CONT

The assessments of risk from hazards in food and water have much in common. A common approach to microbiological hazards in food and water may accelerate development of the science and may also improve the quantity and quality of data available to conduct risk assessments. The hazard characterization step of risk assessment is the one most amenable to a common approach. WHO has been leading the development of risk analysis for the management of public health risks posed by hazards in water.
