Role and Contribution

Participant 6 contributes to the following main objectives of the project:

  • Modelling the effect of food structure, microbial interactions and dynamic storage conditions on meat pathogens and spoilage bacteria.
  • Combination of validated pathogen growth models with data on prevalence/concentration, dose response and chill chain conditions for risk assessment with and without SMAS application.
  • Development of SMAS into a user-friendly computer software.
  • Evaluation of the applicability and effectiveness of SMAS in real conditions of meat distribution.


Participant 6 will provide a database protocol to collect and computerise microbiological data. It will take part in the model development from data generated by all involved partners. Particular attention will be payed to the experimental design, to the problems in dynamic and competition modelling, and to the effect of history on the bacterial growth.


Workplan

WP1 provide guidance and criteria for the evaluation and validation of predictive models for the dominating pathogens of specific meat products  
WP2 take part in the integration of predictive models into risk assessment studies  
WP4 advise in the numerical algorithms used in the TTI based intelligent Safety Monitoring and Assurance System  
WP5 take part in formulating the criteria for the validation of the Safety Monitoring and Assurance System (SMAS) in real chill chain studies
