Experts to Study Food Safety of Oilfield Wastewater
2016-01-13 04:25:25| Oil & Gas - Topix.net
More farmers in drought-stricken California are using oilfield wastewater to irrigate, and a new panel on Tuesday began taking one of the state's deepest looks yet at the safety of using the chemical-laced water on food crops. In the fourth year of California's drought, at least five oilfields in the state are now passing along their leftover production fluid to water districts for irrigation, for recharging underground water supplies, and other uses, experts said.

Pathogen Technology Drives Higher Resolution In Food Safety Testing
2016-01-06 12:10:39| dairynetwork Downloads
By Mary Duseau, SVP and Chief Commercial Officer, Roka Bioscience Higher resolution can bring dramatic change in the discovery and understanding of the world around us. One great example is the recent pictures sent back from the New Horizons spacecraft. As recently as five years ago, Pluto was a pixelated gray dot with no definition. In 2006, NASA launched the New Horizons Spaceship knowing that the investment would not pay off for another decade. The recent pictures of Pluto have provided resolution of the atmosphere and landscape never thought possible. This same paradigm can be applied to food safety. With recent advances in sequencing, macro-biome profiling, food identification, and, of course, pathogen technology, the industry has a tremendous resource of tools at its fingertips. A critical tool often ignored for a number of reasons are the advanced options for pathogen detection. Pathogen detection plays a pivotal role in any food safety process. While significant investments can be made in easier-to-sanitize manufacturing equipment, development of preventative control programs, and training/re-training personnel, the effectiveness of these, and other preventative measures, is only as good as the performance of the pathogen test method used to verify. Therefore, the pathogen testing program is the lens by which these programs are monitored. This lens needs to offer a rapid, sensitive, and accurate picture of the environment, process, and product to allow for effective mitigation and an overall improvement in preventative control.
