Presentation description:

Comprehensive risk evaluation of environmental pet food pathogens – Rosenblatt presents a proven tactical method for coping with environmental pathogens, especially the invisible, extremely hazardous Salmonella spp., which poses a constant threat to the health of pets and pet parents and to the reputation of pet food manufacturers and brand owners through post lethal recontamination. The CREEP (comprehensive risk evaluation of environmental pathogens) approach offers a highly methodological framework for identifying access points, zoning, managing traffic between zones and developing a preemptive environmental sampling plan.
