Editorial: Food safety in low- and middle-income countries by Grace, Delia, Bonfoh, B., Häsler, B., Hung Nguyen-Viet

“…The is the result of growing appreciation of the enormous burden of foodborne disease in LMICs: the health burden is comparable to that of malaria, HIV/AIDs or tuberculosis and the economic cost is more than 100 billion USD a year (Havelaar et al., 2015; Jaffee et al., 2019). …”

Microbial contamination and hygiene of fresh cow’s milk produced by smallholders in western Zambia by Knight-Jones, Theodore J.D., Hang'ombe, M.B., Songe, M.M., Sinkala, Y., Grace, Delia

“…The milk was typically transported by bicycle in high ambient temperatures without refrigeration until reaching the point-of-sale (journey times of 30–120 min), where it was sold without pasteurisation despite milk-borne zoonoses being endemic (bovine tuberculosis (bTB) and Brucellosis). Although microbiological contamination was initially low, with geometric mean total bacterial count (TBC) of 425 cfu/mL (cfu = colony forming units) upon arrival at point-of-sale, poor hygiene led to high bacterial loads later on (geometric mean TBC > 600,000 cfu/mL after two days refrigeration), with almost all samples culture positive for Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. …”

“…Background: Foodborne disease (FBD) affects millions of people each year, posing a health burden similar to malaria, tuberculosis or HIV. A recent World Bank study estimated the productivity losses alone attributed to unsafe food within Africa at $20 billion in 2016, and the cost of treating these illnesses at an additional $3.5 billion. …”

Icke-odlingsbara bakterier by Frank, Andreas

“…Några år efter publiceringen av iChip-tekniken, upptäcktes den första antimikrobiella substansen, teixobactin vilken visade sig vara överlägsen vancomycin i sin förmåga att avdöda resistenta bakterieinfektioner såsom MRSA och M.tuberculosis. Tillsammans med nyligen uppsatta internationella riktlinjer för antibiotikaanvändning kan iChip-tekniken vara vad som krävs för att vända den negativa trenden.…”
