2. ISO 22000:2005
FOOD SAFETY MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM
specifies requirements for a food safety
management system where an organization in the
food chain needs to demonstrate its ability to
control food safety hazards in order to ensure that
food is safe at the time of human consumption.
3. HACCP: HAZARD ANALYSIS and
CRITICAL CONTROL POINTS
systematic preventive approach to food
safety that identifies physical, chemical, and
biological hazards in production processes
that can cause the finished product to be
unsafe, and designs measurements to reduce
these risks to a safe level.
4. cGMP: current GOOD
MANUFACTURING PRACTICES
Procedures that must be implemented to
prevent food adulteration caused by food
hazards, contaminants, or unsanitary
conditions
5. Prevent injury to consumers
Prevent adverse and negative publicity and
product recall
Ensure continued patronage
Ensure brand loyalty and company
profitability
Provide continuing advantage on brand image
Reduce costly rework
Avoid costly litigation and public backlash
Ensure our job security
Why Food Safety?
9. Intoxication or poisoning due to chemical
contamination of food
Poisoning depends on the type of poison,
person, dose, and the effect on the person
Poisons effects may be
Acute effect (vomiting, gastroenteritis,
etc.)
Chronic, long term effect (cancer,
muscle dystrophy, etc.)
Chemical Hazards
12. Naturally Occurring
Chemical Hazards
Toxic plant species
Mushrooms
Certain species contains neurotoxins that can hardly
be differentiated from non-toxin species
Cassava
Contains amino acid-derived cyanogenic glucosides,
some more than others, and must be thoroughly
cooked to remove toxic levels.
Eaten raw, the human digestive system will convert
part of it into cyanide. Two cassava roots contain
enough to be fatal.
Aflatoxins from molds
13. Naturally Occurring
Chemical Hazards
Toxic animal
Sea food red tide algae
Diarrheic or neurotoxins produced by
accumulated poisonous algae in
shellfish and mollusks
Scombrotoxin
Toxin formed on certain fish (tuna,
bluefish, “mahi mahi”) species when
enzyme producing bacteria grows due
to poor storage and reacts with fish
protein to produce histamine, causing
severe allergic reaction
Blue green algae
14. variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob (vCJD)/ Bovine Spongiform
Encephalopathy (BSE) )
Prions are normal proteins of animal tissues that
may be involved in cell-to-cell communication that
can misfold and become infectious, causing
neurodegenerating disease
Associated with the use of animal wastes (brains,
entrails) as feed protein source
Bovine and human share the same characteristics
and believed transmissible
Not known to be spread through milk consumption

Bacterial Characteristics
26. Ability to Form Spores
Spore formers Non-spore formers
• Some bacteria develop resistant forms in
response to adverse environmental
conditions, called spores
• Spores are of food safety importance
because of their heat resistance
Bacterial Characteristics
27. Bacterial Growth
Bacteria multiply by dividing into two (binary
fission)
One growth cycle is the time to produce one
generation

29. Role of Bacteria in Foods
Spoilage agents
Causes souring, off odors and off flavor in food
Production aid
Imparts unique flavor and desired taste in
fermentation (yogurt, cheese, fish sauces and
condiments)
Disease agents
Because growth conditions are available, disease
causing bacteria can grow and multiply
31. Food as Growth Environment
• Microorganisms require nutrients to grow
– Proteins
– Carbohydrates
• Spoilage occurs as a result of microbial
growth
• Finished products tend to have fewer micro
flora than raw products.
• Foods can serve as a vehicle for disease
transmission
32. pH (Acidity)
• pH is a measure of acidity or alkalinity
• pH values range from 0 - 14
• For regulatory purposes, foods are divided into
two groups based on pH
• Low acid foods (pH 4.6)
• High acid foods (pH 4.6)
33. • Pathogenic bacteria grow well at a
pH of 4.6 to 7.5

pH (Acidity)
35. Temperature
Different bacteria (or
microorganism) grows at different
temperatures ranges
Most microorganisms grow well in
the
Temperature Danger Zone (TDZ)
which is
5oC to 60oC
36. Temperature
• Thermophile (50 – 70°C)
• Mesophile (10 – 55°C)
• Psychrophile (0 – 20°C)
DANGER
ZONE
Some bacteria grow
outside the TDZ
37. Growth cycle time are faster at optimum
growth temperatures
Pathogenic microorganisms can grow to high
levels if they remain in the TDZ from two to
more than four hours
Specific temperature over time ensures
destruction of microorganism (Minimum
cooking time)
Time
Time/temperature relationship is a critical
factor to always consider
38. Oxygen
Microorganisms have different oxygen needs for
growth
Types of bacteria by oxygen requirements
Aerobic bacteria needs oxygen to grow
Anaerobic bacteria grows only in the absence of
atmospheric oxygen
Facultative anaerobes grow both with or without
oxygen

processing. Additionally, spore generation critical for
growth after processing.
55. Clostridium perfringens

expected due to wide distribution of
spores in the environment but food
cooking, handling, storage are a
primary means of control.

food handling
Treatment is primarily intravenous and oral rehydration
62. Relevant Bacterial Pathogens
Yersinia enterocolitica
Infection causes diarrhea, vomiting, headache, fever.
Can mimic appendicitis.
Associated with wild and domestic animal intestines,
shellfish and mollusks, and typically associated with
meat and milk products. As with Campylobacter, this is
also an “emerging” pathogen
V. parahemolyticus
Linked exclusively to consumption of contaminated
seafood. Illness usually begins with an explosive
diarrhea with cramping abdominal pain, 8 to 72h after
ingestion. Similar to S. aureus, although heat labile, it
produces heat stable toxin
63. Aeromonas hydrophila
Associated with shell fish, seafoods and crustaceans, as
well as contaminated water.
Eating raw contaminated food, inadequate cooking, poor

Mode of Viral Multiplication
69. Viruses can generally survive in dry conditions,
water, food or long periods
Inactivated at room temperature, destroyed
readily by heat, by strong oxidizing agents but
generally acid resistant
Viruses of importance in foods are:
Hepatitis A virus
Norwalk virus group
Rotavirus
H5N1 “Bird flu”
Viruses: Viral Characteristics
70. Viral Gastroenteritis
Caused by rotaviruses, Norwalk
agent, adenoviruses and
enteroviruses infection
Causes vomiting, diarrhea, fever,
head ache.
No specific therapy except fluids
and electrolyte replacement
71. Hepatitis A Gastroenteritis

malaise, nausea, jaundice and
abdominal paint. May be mild
and can occur unnoticed.
Caused by hepatitis A virus
infection
No specific therapy except fluids
and electrolyte replacement,
and if available, vaccines.
72. Highly pathogenic bird Type A strain of
influenza
If infected, can cause mild illness to
sudden severe respiratory illness (fever,
sore throat, cough, sever respiratory stress
secondary to pneumonia) and rapid death,
resulting to 100% pathogenicity
Widespread to Asia and Europe. Other
versions (H7N7, H9N2) have already
caused deaths. Commonly found on wild
birds
In human infection, can spread through
cough and bodily secretions. Can survive
at 4 C for 35 days and 7 days in 37C.
Avian Flu (Influenza H5N1)
Sub-microscopic
H5N1 virus
73. Avian Flu Challenges
Highly pathogenic to birds, which
are a large part of human food and
activity. Virus is a near relative to
human flu virus but largely
unrecognized by the host if infected.
Has unique characteristic of
“jumping” specie barriers to hogs,
domestic pets, and ultimately to
humans, and may cause pandemic.
This is due to rapid mutation and
the propensity to acquire genes
from other infective viruses
(antigenic drift)
74. Avian Flu Challenges
Mild pathogenic version can spread without detection,
and subsequent mutation to highly pathogenic strain can
cause widespread infection and ultimately pandemic
Ease of spread as feces and bodily secretions can
cause spread throughout from animals to humans.
75. Avian Flu (Influenza H5N1)
Control Measures
No known human to human contact or transmission as
yet known
Halting spread through poultry population by culling of
affected birds to prevent pandemic
Vaccination using current human influenza vaccines
Development of vaccines though limited
Protection of workers culling known infected poultry
and animals
As with other viruses, easily heat labile
76. Viral Control
Good sanitary and personal hygiene practices
Home slaughter of sick or dead poultry is not
advisable
Prevent cross contamination of raw with cooked
food, particularly raw food with cooked food, food
utensils, food handling surfaces, knives and handlers
Proper cooking
Avoid eating raw poultry, raw eggs
Conventional cooking remains a safe practice
(cooking above 70C)
Combined control mechanisms often necessary
