The process of food inspection relies on an inspector’s understanding of the intrinsic hazards associated with individual foods

Whereas spoilage can usually be determined through a simple organoleptic assessment, the judgment of whether a food is fit for human consumption requires an evaluation of health hazards, many of which may not be apparent through physical assessment

Instead the inspector must analyse and integrate scientific and handling information to evaluate the potential health risk

Adulteration of foods is also becoming an increasing problem, and the complexity of the food supply chain requires an understanding of risk points to allow targeted inspection and assessment

Food Safety and Inspection: An Introduction focuses on food categories and describes common hazards associated with each, using published peer-reviewed research to explain and evaluate the health risk

It is a practical textbook designed to support the role of food inspection in a modern food industry

There are seven chapters looking at specific aspects of food safety, including a chapter on fraud and adulteration

This book summarises relevant published research to provide a scientific context for specific food safety issues, and is an essential read for anyone interested in becoming a food inspector.
