"Contains articles developed from papers presented at an international workshop held at the Rowett Research Institute in April 1998, concentrating on research priorities and possible changes in farming practice to reduce the incidence of transmission of E. coli 0157. Topics addressed include factors
affecting the incidence and survival of E. coli in farm animals, especially cattle, the epidemiology of spread from animals to humans, and the immediate spread from animals to meat, milk, and the environment. Other subjects are the association of human disease with the farm environment, and
infection control in the slaughterhouse. The editors are affiliated with Rowett Research Institute, UK."--SciTech Book News

Cases of food poisoning caused by E coli 0157 have been increasing in recent years. This book contains articles from papers presented at an international workshop at the Rowett Research Institute, Aberdeen, in 1998, to identify research priorities and possible changes in farming practice to reduce the incidence of transmission of E coli 0157 to the food chain and humans. The topics addressed include: factors affecting the influence and survival in farm animals, especially cattle; the epidemiology of spread from animals to humans; and the immediate spread from animals to meat, milk and the environment. Further chapters discuss the association of the human disease with farm practice, and controlling infection in the slaughterhouse.
