    Potential for rapid on-site testing at border inspection posts

    This project reviewed the current systems of residue and contaminant control of imported food, focusing on the use of rapid diagnostics. It questioned whether the routine use of rapid screening at border inspection posts （BIPs） was a viable option. A questionnaire and mini-demonstration exercise drew attention to the issues that need to be addressed. The report includes recommendations for further work to highlight the necessary steps to implement this type of screening on a range of food and feed commodities and products of animal origin.

    Safety of sous vide food

    Sous vide is a method of cooking food vacuum packed in a sealed plastic pouch, then cooked by submersion in a water bath. Recent years have seen an increase in the number of sous vide foods being cooked at low temperatures （e.g. 42°C to 70°C）。 This study involved a feasibility study on extending models in the database called 'Combase Predictor' . It allowed the calculation of the lethal effect, normally associated with heat treatments at relatively low temperatures, on the reduction of food pathogens.
