Conference Session: Controlling Salmonella in Low-moisture Foods


Originally presented at Petfood Workshop 2011, Dr. Phil Elliott of the Grocery Manufacturers Association describes current practices to control Salmonella in dry production environments and low-moisture finished products.

This one-hour session provides participants with information on several illness outbreaks attributed to Salmonella in low-moisture products, including pet food. Although Salmonella cannot grow in low-moisture environments, low cell numbers can cause illness, survive for long periods of time and may have greater heat resistance compared to that in high-moisture foods.

For $49.99, participants receive:
  • Unlimited online access (log on any time – 24 hours a day –to view the session)
  • Certificate of completion
