Supply Chain Issues in China’s Milk Adulteration Incident
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gale,   H. Frederick, Jr.; Hu,   Dinghuan.
China’s melamine milk adulteration crisis highlights the challenges that arise as large well-capitalized companies procure raw materials from a diffused supply chain of scattered small farmers and milk collection stations. As milk prices climbed sharply in 2007 and companies branched out into new territories, intense competition for raw milk supplies strengthened incentives to water down and adulterate milk.  Effective food safety measures must account for incentives, the distribution of market power in the supply chain and market dynamics.

Food Safety and Imports:  An Analysis of FDA Food-Related Import Refusal Reports
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Buzby,   Jean C.; Unnevehr,   Laurian J.; Roberts,   Donna.
This report examines U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) data on refusals of food offered for importation into the United States from 1998 to 2004. Although the data do not necessarily reflect the distribution of risk in foods, the study found that import refusals highlight food safety problems that appear to recur in trade and where the FDA has focused its import alerts, examinations (e.g., sampling), and other monitoring efforts. The data show some food industries and types of violations are consistent sources of problems both over time and in comparison with previous studies of more limited data. The three food industry groups with the most violations were vegetables (20.6 percent of total violations), fishery and seafood (20.1 percent), and fruits...

Assessment of the impact of formalin treatment on the quality and shelf life of mango
Provedor de dados: 111
Autores: Shiraj-Um-Monira, Syeeda.
This study was conducted to observe the effect of formalin application on the post-harvest quality and shelf life of mango. Mango samples were treated with different concentrations of formalin solutions (10, 100 and 1000 ppm) in two different modes (dipping and spraying) and stored for seven days at ambient condition. Physical characteristics, such as weight loss, color, texture and shrinkage and residual formalin content were observed at every alternate day during storage period. Formalin treatment (dipping and spraying) did not bring up any positive effect in increasing the shelf life of mango. Rather treated with higher concentration of formalin solution (10 ppm&lt;100 ppm&lt;1000 ppm) caused internal and external deterioration. Residual formalin...

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to assess the efficacy ofmultiplex PCR in detecting the adulterationof commercially available ground beefvia addition and/orsubstitution ofground buffalo meat. Experimentally adulterated ground beefsamples were prepared in triplicate, and dilutions of DNA from Bos taurus and Bubalusbubalis were prepared to determine the detection limit of the method. Concurrently, 91 ground meatsamples sold as “ground beef” were collected from differentstores in northern Brazil andanalyzed bymultiplex PCR. Buffalo DNA was detected in 17.5% of the collected ground meat samples.Our results showed that multiplex PCR is an efficient method for detectingthe incorporation of groundbuffalo meatatpercentages ranging from 10 to 100% and...
