In order for animal feed products to be fit for consumption and pass the necessary safety requirements, they must be free from pathogens, chemicals and toxins that could cause harm to the animal. To ensure product safety, the animal feed sector must continue to find new and innovative ways of detecting and controlling the major groups of contaminants.
Advances in improving animal feed safety provides a comprehensive overview of the key microbiological and chemical risks affecting animal feed, from bacterial pathogens such as Salmonella and E.coli, to mycotoxins and environmental contaminants such as heavy metals and flame retardants. The book also reviews the techniques used for detecting and controlling contaminants in animal feed.
