Special Issue on Food Safety and Public Health

Food safety is receiving heightened attention worldwide as the important links between food and health are increasingly recognized. Unsafe food contains hazardous agents, or contaminants, that can make people sick, either immediately or by increasing their risk of chronic disease. Certain food safety hazards are closely linked with sanitation, water supply, food preparation, and marketing of food. Food safety is the result of many different actions in the food supply chain, which is closely related with health, nutrition, and food production and marketing issues.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring food safety and public health. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Food quality and safety
• Food additives
• Food nutrient content
• Rational diet
• Food inspection
• Food packaging and identifying
• Health food and green food
• Assessment of food safety

• Food safety and agriculture

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.
