SAFE FOODS is a European project established in 2004 that deals with food safety. It aims to contribute to the restoration of consumer confidence in the safety of the European food chain, to protect the consumer from foodborne illness, and to refine risk analysis practices for food safety via an interdisciplinary approach. The full title of the project is "SAFE FOODS - Promoting a new, Integrated Risk Analysis Approach for Foods". The project is funded by the European Union (EU) Directorate-General for Research (European Commission) via the Sixth Framework Programme, under the ''‘Quality and Safety of Food’'' Priority Area. SAFE FOODS is also a founding member of COMMNET, a communication managers' network of several Sixth Framework projects dealing with food quality and safety issues. More than 95 natural and social scientists are involved in the project, coming from 37 institutions in 21 countries. == Thematic research areas == A broad range of research disciplines are used in the SAFE FOODS project, including molecular biology, microbiology, toxicology, probabilistic modeling, and disciplines of the social sciences and the political sciences. SAFE FOODS is divided in 5 sub-projects, namely * Comparative safety evaluation of plant breeding approaches and production practices, * Early detection of emerging food and feed risks, * Quantitative risk assessment of combined exposure to food contaminants and natural toxins, * Consumer research of food risk management perceptions, and * Institutional challenges and solutions to systemic risk management. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「SAFE FOODS」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
