CampTau - Campylobacter-transfer from carcass to meat product in the relative-risk model

Project Details

Description

The project will improve DTU's relative-risk model, which assesses the risk of people becoming infected with Campylobacter. Campylobacter is the most common cause of food-borne gasterointestinal illnesses in Denmark. This is done by specifically examining the transfer (Tau value) of Campylobacter bacteria from the broiler carcass to the packaged products.
