The Promising Era of Microbiome
Tim Stubbs shares his insights on the promising era of building the future of food safety
Key Takeaways
- Whole genome sequencing has evolved from a detection tool to a prediction and prevention method.
- By moving testing and quality controls further back in the supply chain, we can prevent contamination by utilizing environmental modeling to identify specific pathogens and indicator organisms.
- The food safety industry has evolved exponentially over the past 5 years, and an important next step will be implementing new tools in plant mitigation.
