Molecular microbiology methods are needed to ensure that food is safe, with the most common use being to detect pathogens. But there is so much more.
DNA sequencing allows detected pathogens to be compared to each other with greater accuracy than ever before. It also provides tools to examine microbial populations in great detail, so that these can be understood and controlled. Sequencing is maturing as a tool for use in food microbiology, particularly for tracking the source of outbreaks and for examining gut microflora. By covering comparative genomics, population profiling and ISO 16140 validation of methods, this seminar is the ideal opportunity to develop and update your knowledge of molecular microbiology, so that you can best use it to ensure the safety of your products.
